MORE MEDICAL FAkERs,

The Cleveland Institute of Medi
cine and Surgery with DIR. Theo..
Jacobsen president is headed for
Greeley. According to the advertis-
ing matter they send out they can
cure most of the chronic diseases
that other physicians cannot touch.
If one-half or one-tenth the prom
Uses these grafters make were true
they would be working night and
day in their home city of Cleveland
for big fees, instead Of drilling over
the country making country towns
like one-horse opera troop. The
real reason for the visits of fiy-by-
night doctors of this sort is that
takers are not so plentiful in the
country as in the cities and the
| picking is better. Our advice is tc
leave them alone. If you are not
satisfied with your progress under
the care Of your home doctor and
want the skill of better one. con.
suit your local physician for the
name of some really way.up doctor
In Denver, or If you have no conf.
dence in any Greeley physician Their
write or see the president OF tile
state board of health at Denver and
without charge he will direct Won to
a reputable physician, and thus yor
steer clear of the takers.
Always fight shy of the medica
sharks who take quarter pages, hal,
pages and whole pages in the Sunda,
papers to tell how skillful they are
and who promises everything unde,
the sun. The really skillful doctor,
are usually so busy that they dom,
need to buy space by the yard, t,

member that the average travelin,

eoLITENEss AND BOTTLES.

1t is far cry from politeness Il
glass bottles but as KICK has beel
registered with the Tribune over thu
lack of the former commodity and
superiority of the latter the two sub
jects may have some faint relation
ship after all.
The matter of common courtesy OF
politeness came up day or two age
in a we'll known professional mans
office over a telephone call. The
moment the receiver was lifted from
the hook gruff voice at the other
end demanded, "Nho is thls?' In
stantly there was flash of anger on
the other mans face as he replied
sharply, "Well, who do you suppose
it is?"
That is the key to the situation.
The man who would not grow hot
under the collar at the demand first
quoted would indeed have The patti
ence Of Job. But the habit is so
common with some persons that they
hardly ever open conversation over
the telephone In any other way. 1t
would be just as easy to ask If this
was so or so, or at least inform
the other man or lady, for that mat
ter, at the other end who was calling
before demanding to know who was
answering, and would not stamp
the man as a bear or crank without
the sense of common courtesy. II
shows contemplate contempt for
the rights and the feelings of others.
How often if one came right back at
the party with, well, who is this?"
after a demand of who Is this?n
would the first one to call over the
phone not feel himself greatly in
suited? 1t is seldom that he does
not So consider himself and invari-
ably flies into rage about being
paid back in his own coin. And
this is only one Of many methods
that the disagreeable man has of
showing his bad temper.
Now as to the glass. Every owner
OF an automobile and rider of a BIZ
cycle will agree with us that there
is an unnecessary amount of broken
bottles in the streets, that mean
hundreds Of dollars of damage an.
nually to rubber tires. Much oil
this is left there carelessly or pur.
posely. 1t is only that left in the
streets by carelessness that can bt
helped much. Some is left acct
dentally and, perhaps, some mis-
chievously. Nothing can be dom
with either of these, unless the auto
mobilists' association might offer
substantial reward for information
about anyone purposely leaving glas
bottles in the road to be broken int
pieces by wagons, later to ruin tire
of wheels.

PRIMARY

In Quiet Orderly Manner Votes Came

The commonly repeated expression,

used with perfect propriety with ref
erence to the primary held today.
With the exception Of the small
crowds gathered about the voting
places and an OCCASIONAL group on the
streets, there was little To distinguish
from an ordinary busy day.
OF course there was plenty doing
among the candidates and their back
erz, but it was all carried on without
making much noise. Particularly no
ticeabe was the absence Of the hacks
and flying banners usually seen at
an election in Chickasha.
The polls were opened on time but
votes came slowly. Probably no more
than 200 votes were polIed before
noon. It was generally believed thai
the total vote in the city would b
between 500 and 900. On account oi
the pretty weather that prevailed 1
light country vote is expected, esti
mates on tho total vote Of Grady coun.

It is too early to make an prophe

Ia Arrssting H. W Robinson Trouble
Grew out Of Booze PeddIing

A blank check book and a bundle
Of letters saved Deputy Marshal
Burke's life last night.
The marshal's office got word that
whisky was being brought in and
f. S. Burney and Tom Burke went out
toward the old Dave Hill place and
met H. w. Robinson driving towards
the city in a delivery wagon about
half past nine. Burke saw he was
going to try to get by them and went
out to one side and began asking him
to stop, when without warning Rob
inson began shooting. One shot
struck Burke in the left side just be-
low the belt, going through his cloth
ing and the check book and papers
and breaking the skin underneath and
another whizzed by his face. Robin
son then whipped up and they began
shooting at him. One Of his horses
fell dead after running about quar-
ter Of mile and Robinson jumjed
out and took to the brush. Mr.. Bur-
ney, not knowing how seriously Mr.
Burke was hurt, hurried to get him
back to the city. When it was found
that the wound only touched tht
flesh Burney and Burke again start
ed after their man. They found th'
wagon and also discovered sack con.
tanning 35 or 40 pint bottles Of whisk!
and on the road met the city police Of
ficers who informed them that Rob
inson had come to town and INFORMED
them that he had been held up and hai

Of Attractions Season

While a good advance sale Of Chau-
tauqua tickets has been made, vet
there are too many in Chickasha who
have not, as vet, purchased season
tickets. The success Of this years
event will determine whether or not
a Chautauqua will be held here next
year; 50 if you are in sympathy with
the movement, do your part toward
making the June event such sue
cess that there will remain no ques-
tion about holding another next year
The list Of attractions are certainly
the best to be had on the lecturing and
amusement platform, and at three dol
ars a ticket the seasons attractions
cost the holder about eighteen cents
for each entertainment.
Ths committee urges that those who
have not yet purchased tickets but
expect to do Sc, call at or write to
headquarters at the Commercial club
rooms. All information relative to
the weeks program will cheerfuIly
be given. Talk for the Chautauqua
and support it too. It is an enterprise
an interest IN which every business
man and every citizen, man and wo-
man, should encourage. The week Of
June 1926 promises to be a big one
for Chickasha. 1t can be made a
greater success however, BY the In

town.

party.
Antle will endeavor to recover his

contraband and must be confiscated
and sold within a reasonable time, the

Antle does not think that he, an
innocent party, should be made to
lose his rig, which is very valuable,
yet such may be the outcome.
