Interest in the strange class Of Rus

THE Norman Transcript hits the
truth very forcibly in it's remark
that however much, a newspaper
is cursed and abused, however
onery it may be, it saves many a
fellows bacon. There are people
in every community who would to-
day be frying in the skillet of con-
demnatlon if the editor of the
home paper told what he knew.
AS a rule the editor is the first to
hear all the scandal there is going
and in some cases the charges are
true and could be easily proven.
All the indiscretion of men and
woman, all the nasty talk INDUCED
in by young people, reaches the
ear of the editor, but if the editor
would publish half the stuff he
hears divorce suits would follow
thick and fast. There would be
shotguns and funerals. desolate
homes, shame and misery. And
yet your home editor is abused,
cursed and maligned because his
paper is no account and he is
worse. No thought is given to the
stuff he has heard of yourself,
maybe, that he hasn't printed. 1t
don't take much of a man to tell
what to put in a paper, but it
takes the wisdom of Solomon to
keep it out.

New EDUCATION says: Don't
neglect doing something for your
boy until it is too late. A few
hundreds spent on him may be
worth more than as many thousands
left to him when his life is half
gone Many a boy has remained
down near the bottom of the ladder
all his life for lack of little help
at the right time-help, too, which
could have been given him without
any serious sacrifice on the part of
his parents. "

In all the recrimination now going on
in our military establishment they have
preserved the reticence and sobriety of
men who retain proper sense of pride
in their reputation as gentlemen as we'll
as officers. They have shown a mag

mouths shut. and when forced to open
them at banquets in their honor they
have resolutely refused to even criticise

It is not pleasant to be forced to say
that the morals of one branch of our

higher qualities of discretion. respect

unity which expresses itself in silence.
West Point is not behind Annapolis as
a school of manners, and when it comes
to war the products of both schools
should be equal in courtesy as well as
in bravery.

There is considerable opposition
to the bill. A great many Of the
members want to prorate all the
money due the nation among the
citizens. They argue that these
moneys coming from the federal
government are the property of the
citizens and the individual should
receive the full amount. They say
that there are other sources for OBJ

has no right to take this money
for such purpose. 1t is general

then be relieved from the debnsing
influence Of 335 voters who Op-
posed free schools and six or seven
hundred who wouldn't vote for
them and were ashamed to vote
against them. Valley News.
Ardmore is to have free schools,
il only by small majority. The
ARDMoRE1TE has not a harsh word
to utter to those who opposed free
schools. They voted their honest
convictions; they had a legal right
to do SO. In that minority can be
found many of the best element of
the town, and because of their OPP
position to this cause we see no
reason wherein their influence is
debasing. For those who did not
vote we have nothing to say, fur
ther than that they should have
shown their sentiments one way or
other. We, therefore. take issue
with the News, that because a citi-
zen does not vote as we do it
neither lessons his standing as an
honorable, upright. conscientious,
enlightened man nor places him
under a pail of debasing influences
such as the News would try to
have it. This remark of the News
is not only cruel but ungentleman-
" and shows that schools were GER
tainly needed at Pauls Valley.
