Jim Hardin's All Right.

Town Talk In Rogers, Ark. } Jour-
nal: Next want to call the atten.
tion OF our people to the magnifi'
cent work being done on our streets
by Jim Hardin. He is by far the
best street commissioner Rogers has
ever had. But Jim is peculiarly
adapted to do this kind oiwork. Be-
ing cross eyed he can keep one eye
on the hands at work while he has
his weather" eye looking out an
other place that needs fixing. The
same popularity assisted Jim many
times while he was city marshal, as
he could arrest two men at the same
time, and, in fact, he has been know n
to arrest three at q time, but can
not tell how he did it, for am sure
be has but two eyes. jim made o
good marshal all the same, and he
hpever failed to bring the transgres-
ors in to court; yet he had many
harrow escapes Of losing his life
while making arrests. II our Getty
dads" will give Jim proper encour-
agement he will put the streets Of
Rogers in better shape than they
have ever been since 1t was declared
a CITY OF the second class,

Some time before the holidays there
will be the hottest kind Of a fight
with the anti-saloon league arrayed

the mighty commercial interests

that that liquor committee Is now
made up, but its personnel is not yet

The prohibitionists opened their
campaign here with Rev. e. 8. Chap.

cred two addresses. His theme was

days OF the convention.
Even the democrats in the conven
ton are still showing the strained
relations caused last Wednesday
when the old state rights proposition
was forced upon the convention by
the dominant southern wing of the
party. Judge Ledbetter, or Ardmore
who led the fight for state rights
arose Monday to ask J. A. Baker
democrat, of Wewoka, question
and addressed him as my friend
Baker" Quickly the latter retorted
"You mean Mr. Baker, of the S1st.'
Friends of both men expected a per
sonal conflict, but the incident was
hurriedly smoothed over by President
Murray.
Senator o. R. Fegan, Of Guthrie,
member of several former Oklahoma
legislatures, raised the point that b!
the adoption of the federal constitu

as required by the enabling act, i
compels the state of Oklahoma t.

system, and the fifteenth amendment

will stand in the way of the constl
tutional convention taking any step
toward DISTINGUISHING the negro.

Value of the Show Window.

Most merchants realize the value OF
attractive. original window displays
in connection with their seasonable
trade. The store window is at all
times one of the most valuable store
adjuncts and trade-getters that the
merchant can make use of. All at
tractive window displays always draw
the attention of the shopper. and if.
besides being attractive, it contains
any suggestions, it is bound to sell
the goods. If the merchant or any
of his clerks. who may have more tai

The woman who is always we'll and
neatly dressed is able to exercise a
greater influence for good than one
who is the reverse. The well dressed
woman is attractive to the eye and
the eye is one of the main avenues to
the heart. Other things being equal,
her influence is more potent than her
neighbor's, whose reputation of dress
ing Gust as it happens" at home in
some indefnable way casts shade
over whatever virtue she may possess
A.woman neatly dressed is ready for
emergencies. The chance caller and
the unexpected guest find her ready
to receive them. But perhaps the
greatest necessity for looking we'll at
home exists in the home itself. To
the members of their families. they
owe the first duty.
