There is some sickness reported
among the children of this community
The little two-year-old son Of Mr.. and
Mrs. George Vernon was quite sick
Saturday and Sunday. and the baby
daughter OF Mr.. and Mrs. Jasper
Skaggs Is quite sick now with fever.
There will be a box supper at the
Sullivan school house Friday night
The irrepressible Abe Evans. who is
always trying TO do something to ad-
vance the interests Of his neighbor-
hood. was around Sunday telling the
people that their presence at the sup
per would be very much appreciated
Quite a large attendance is e-~ected.
as the people Of Sullivan l. bor-
hood are in the habit OF going a
whole hog" In all things thoy under
take. Those who go expecting to see
good time will not be disappointed
We would call attention to the fact
that the Ardmorelte is keeping apace
with the times and is truly the peo-
pies paper. ever ready to speak out
in the interests Of the whole people,
without regard to party. creed or
cult. We think that every person liv-
ing in the Chickasaw nation should
read at least the Weekly Ardmoreite.
II gives the news OF most every COM
munity and town in this nation. It's
columns are open to every one who
has some news Of interest and every
one who endeavors TO write is treated
with the utmost consideration. There
is no better educator in the country
than the Ardmoreite. If It is not the
best newspaper in the Territory It is
as much your fault as any one else.
II you have something stored away in
your mind. let us have IT, we need
II and know from my own experience
that the Ardmoreite force Will appre-
ciate an honest effort.
The quarterly conference of the NJ.
f. church in the two charges Of the
Revs. Clay and Sauls convened at
Browns Chapel, three miles west of
here, on last Saturday. The presiding
elder. Rev. Averyt. was present and
took active part in the exercises OF
he day and also preached at IL o'clock
Sunday at Browns and at night at
this place. The sermons of all whom
we heard at the two places were ev
erything that could be desired. The
pastor here, Bro. Clay. is very much
loved by all who know him and VIC
hope that the appointing power al
the next annual conference will send
him back to us. Mr.. Clay is large oi
stature and well he may be, for it re
quires a large space for such hear
as his It is no trouble to tell tha
he has been with the Lowly Nazarene
AT the noon hour yesterday we saw
that the ground had begun to assum,
the different colors usually found il
table linen, so we set about to flnt
the meaning, and very much to on
delight we saw many good things tC
eat. and some whole-souled fellow
shouted out thai there was plenty fot
/ everybody present, and as the Ard
moreite man is always hungry, W,
took in the situation and made for tb,
heaviest loaded part OF the table an,
informed the good ladies in charg,
that we were always ready to hell
bear other peoples burdens Their,
was plenty for every one and plenty
left Perfect order prevailed through
/ out the day and the occasion is one
! long to be remembered as one OF tn,
! brightest OF our experience. Thanks
to the Browns Chapel neighborhood
/ At the night service here, II wa
announced that a protracted meeting
would begin under the pastors super
} vision on July 9Th. Rev. Averyt salt
that he would, in all probability, as
sist Bro, Clay at that time.
We have nothing to say against tn,
: claims OF the different societies whicl
4 are competing for the cash prize to b
n given away this fall by the Ardmor
merchants, but we are fully convincei
o that us country people are more intel

association. The gates of the beaut
