Bad Luck
For the Indians. at Guthrie Tive
Games Lost.

Luck was against the Chickasha
team in the games at Guthrie
Saturday and Sunday.
The Senators captured the first
game by a score Of 10 TO and the
second by a score of 7 to 3.
The boys will return tonight
and will play three games with
Enid on the home grounds. The
Enid team, since defeating Okla
homa City Saturday stands at the
head in the Southwestern league.
The three games will be good ones.
Our boys will do their best work.
The games at Enid last week show
ed that the two teams were nearly
evenly matched. Although the
Evangelists took two out of the
three, the score was such that our
boys enter the second series with
a good prospect Of winning.

Time Table
Alabama & Mississippi Railway
FARMER TO THE FORE.

The time is coming. and it is not
far distant, when the people of
Greene County will have TO turn to
thu soil for living. Some are al
ready gradually steering their efforts
that way now. The farmer is the
most Independent liver in the world.
.ie il is who can rightfully be termed
the back -blne of the country, for up
on his industry the entire popula-
tion depends for food. Wherever
farming becomes the leading indus
try, good wagon roads upon which
he can convey his products economi-
c;illy to market becomes Lis para
mount desire, but alas, the building
of such is beyond his financial limi-
tatiOnS, and even so of his county
and state. National aid is needed in
combination with these to accom-
plish anything like the beginning of
the desired movement. The condi-
tions of our roadways are such as to
be admittedly inadequate to subserve
the needs IL they now stand. what
can we hope in the agrarian days to
GENE unless some such mighty blend
ing OF potcntialities- is set agoing.
The Brownlow Road Bill, now pend
ing in Congress will create exactly
this thing, SO if you have studied the
matter over and see it to your inter-
ests that this Bill be passed, write
Col. Brownlow 1T Washington, d.
c.. for copy of it. Should it meet
with your ideas address letter to
your Congressman telling him your
opinion thus found.

ARTESIAN WELL TALK
Dear Mr.. Editor.

Dear Mr.. Editor:
Recently my attention has been Mt
tlacted to your locals relative TO the
Artesian Well for LeakesviIle. and
from the tenor thereof, | infer that
you regard the matter as still in the
hands OF the citizens of the town.

scribe that the good people Of this

mittec OF three loyal cit:z MS. viz: ].

matters pertaining to the Well and

Mr.. Editor, in the face of these fac, !.
it seems to me that the matter is e,,
tirely up to the COMMITTEES and not
to the citizens in general

enough to let us hear from it as IL.
what it is doing or has done in The
premises?
The Well we need and the Well VT
must have, and in as much as there
is an expressed willingness on the
part of our people to pay for it, why

suits for the future of our town, to
say nothing OF imlcriling the health
of our people.

That same wind that struck our
town last Thursday night and made
the blinds slam with sardonic screach-
ing, while the house seemed TO have
the faintcst dumb chills, did deadly
damage to one town in Alabama, as
well as some in this state. Mound
vile, a place of about three hundred
souls was literally wiped out. 1t is
a fact viewed with misgivings, that
the storm circuits seemed to beat in
these days out of the old channels.
So secure formerly have the people
of Alabama and Mississippi been
that they have not even thought it
worth while to provide storm cellars.
Some may now be put down, irres-
pcctive of cynical REMARKS.

We are of the opinion that our
contributor Thirsty" who has an
article in, regarding the Artesian
Well. must have misunderstood our
recent appeal to the Leakesville's
citizenship in this matter. We cx-
planned in former editorial that The,
committee to which he refers had
made arrangements for putting down
the Well all save getting the sigma
ture of the various donators to the
contract, there they had come to Il
halt. Our remarks were directed
with the hope of getting over this
snag. Seems to us that the Com
mittee should call a town meeting
for this purpose. We thank him for
his article as it will doubtless help
in getting what S desired by us all.
