EoR STONE cuLuERrs.

There is economy in building stone
bridges over all the small draws and
branches. They should be laid on
good foundations with cement and be
properly protected by walls and rip
rap. The erection of temporary cul-
verts Is a waste of time and energy.
They might do very well for small
branches in the early days as a tenn
porary eXpedient but they have no
place in the present era of permanent
road building Whatever Is worth do.
ing at all is worth doing we'll To
build an old time wooden culvert to be
washed out by the next freshet OF TO
rot out in a few years at best is a woe
ful waste Of energy and money and
never can result in good, permanent
roacs. Cement and stone and labor
are cheap enough now SO that anything
but the best stone oulvert Is quite out
Of the question. Let Logan county
eulverts be built for an time.

The men who have been fooling
with perpetual motion machines for so
many useless years, says the Nebraska
State Journal, feel somewhat justified
by the building OF a clock by Richard
Strut, son of Lord Rayleigh, that wiz
run two thousand years. The m04we
power consists of two pieces of soid
leaf suspended in the presence Of a
small piece OF radium. The pieces OF
gold leaf become electrified from the
radium and spread apart through re-
pulsion until they touch the sides Of
the vessel. Then they lose the cleo
tricity and drop back, only to repeat
the operation. It is evident that they
will continue to perform tins service
until the pieces are worn out or until
the energy Of the radium becomes ex.
hausted. Inasmuch as this will not
take place for about two thousand
years. it is evident that the man who
is lucky enough to own such a clock
need not keep his mind on the subject

10 swiftly and vigorously
The whole record Of the last ad-
ministration is full Of acts Of gross
negligence, lack Of proper judgment
and apparent disregard for the well
fare Of the city's future financial
needs" You can scarcely put your
finger down on an item that does not
show it, Take for example the fire
and water fund in which there are S3,-
914.22 Of warrants outstanding and
only s1,16l.87 Of money to pay them
with, thus leaving a shortage Of So
1926 after all the money is expended.
Nine other funds follow this same lead
including such funds as street and
bridges, street lighting, contingent and
water works scrip.
All this is in face Of the enormous
levies made last year. the extent Of
which we're only fully realized when
the taxes became due. These matters
were fully considered by the people
prior to the late spring election and
they declared for reform. Now these
cbstructiOnists propose to thwart the
will of the people and continue their
vile tactics in face Of the storm OF
protest. This they may do for a time
but the storm viii not abate and the
people viii see that this city is rid
once for all Of men who set political
and personal spite above the general
welfare Of the people.

benefits both the giver and the re-
ceiver.
Mayor Duke will receive any CON
tributions that citizens may desire to
add. 1t is desirable that the fund be
completed at an early date, so a
prompt response will be appreciated.
Governor Ferguson's request 10 charit-
able organizations and churches will
meet with hearty appreciation here and
collections viii be taken at the various
churches on Sunday.
The fellow feeling that is aroused by
such calamities is past the power of
money to measure and constitutes the
brightest spot in the whole panorama
Of our civilization. Truly it is better
to give than to receive.

The MlRTHEuL GERMAN.

There is a vein Of good humor in
the German people that is a perpetual
source Of joy. From the highest to
the lowest it breaks out in a real dem
ocratic spirit and with an unrestrained
levity that helps very much toward
making life worth living, This was
instanced lately on Easter by the way
in which even the autocratic Emperor
William played with the common
sailors at hiding oranges on board the
Hohenzorern.
This very valuable element has been
contributed to the American citizen
by the Germans here. II has mixed
admirably with the strong, stern but
rather too sedate and melancholy
tendency OF the Anglo-Saxon in
America and the result has been happy.
The two elements make a happy com
bination and the American Of today is
the result
Oklahoma has a great many Ger
mans OF people Of German descent and
their happy faces and merry laugh
contributed a large element toward
making up "the smile that won't come
on SO noticeable in Oklahoma people.
IL is not a stage smile nor smile on
the face but il permeates the whole life
