Rousing Time in Elk
City This Year.
MASS MEETING LAST SATURDAY
Program to Be the Biggest
Ever.

Elk City is going to celebrate fourth
of July and is going to do it IT, grand
style, on a more extensive scale than
ever before in this neck o the woods.
1t was so decided at a rouser Of a mass
meeting of citizens Saturday afternoon.
Every man present was a full fledged
fourth of July man. and so much Of the
vitriolic temperament was left over
from last year that it was only by ex-
tremely heroic efforts that the celeora-
tion was not started right there.
Chairman Basket sized the situation
up about right when he thought it
would take US about two days to give
an account Of ourselves. With this
suggestion the ball started off for a
two-day celebration and it was agreed
TO by every man present. But the 4th
comes on Sunday this year, so the cele-
bration had TO be arranged accordingly
and Friday and Saturday, the End and
3rd are the days named when Elk City's
big American eagle is to scream.
A committee was appointed TO make
collections and arrange the program
The committee is: I'd Schnen, L. A.
Strong, A. n. Ingram, b. b. Scott and
G. l.. J.. Basket They are at work
on program that viii be published
next week

One subject for this week would recall
TO my mind had I ever forgotten f.;
one smile whose value 10 me then was
beyond words I sat one day at the
window IN my third-story room alone in
a city OF strangers, thinking OF home
and loved ones far away. Tears were IN
my eyes and the pain Of loneliness in
my heart as I watched friends meet and
greet each other IN the street below. and
thought that IN all that city there was
none 70 greet me. Suddenly 7 recognized
lady whom I had done some sewing
for. AS her carriage approached. she
leaned from the window, looked up at
me. and smiled Do you think 1 can tell
you the value Of that smile? A warmth
crept into my heart; the glow on my
face dried the tears, and 7 took on a new
interest In life. Years have passed since
then and conditions are changed. but I
have never forgotten that smile and the
light IT brought into my darkened life
that day. I knew the woman well n
after years. and there always seemed a
halo about her. a reflection Of that smile.
only a smile from kindly face
On the busy streets that day;
Forgotten as soon as given. perhaps.
AS the donor went ner way.
But straight to my heart It went speed

To gid the clouds that were there.
And I found that Of sunshine and Hfe's
blue skies
I also might take my share"
