The ideals of a people and the
traditions of a people are the souls
of people. When these are lowered
or surrendered the soul of a people
is lowered or surrendered. Far more
important than the institutional
forms or constitutional provisions
under which a people live are the
spirit and principles of the people
themselves. If these are high and
brave and worthy, they will have
good government, whatever the form
ii these are low or sordid they will
have add government, whatever the

DISPLAY Of ART
BY MRS. HADLEY
ARDMORE TEACHER WAS MOST
ISTINGulSHEp IN GREAT NEW
YORK CONSERVATORY

Mrs. Nine Hadley has returned from
New York where she studied art un
der the most famous teachers of the
country. She has resumed work with
her classes at ll9 \ street northwes,
where she has "A display of art that
surpasses any display in the state
Mrs. Hadley's work was the only
pieces placed on display in the ant
stores of New York that belonged 10
any pupil in attendance. This recog-
milton of her work by the masters OF
America and Germany gives her a dis
tinction not enjoyed by any other per
son in the United States. She was
offered a handsome salary to take up
her work in connection with the
schools of Tennessee but she chose to
return to Ardmore to resume work
with her classes.
One portion of the new work which
she did while away is what is known
as miniature on porcelain. This
study was under an artist from Berlin
who dismisses all pupils aG,cr the
second lesson whom he believes can
not complete the work with credit.
Mrs. Hadley took several lessons in
the particular kind of art and will re
turn this winter TO graduate. The
Berlin teacher told her she is the only
American teacher who gives this kind
of work to pupils.
Mrs. Hadley exhibits some work
done by girls of ten and eleven years
of age that shows remarkable prog
ress and would really do credit to
grown-ups instead of children. Her
work will be placed on display at the
state fair the latter part of this month.
Mrs. Hadley welcomes any person
to her studio to look over the work
she has and what she is teaching.

APPEAL IS ARGUED
BY INDIAN WOMAN
Court Hears First Address
From Litigant Who Is Neither
Man Nor Lawyer

WASHINGTON, Jan. 15.-For the first
time in the history of the supreme
court woman who is not lawyer ap-
peared before that court yesterday and
argued a case.
Many years ago the supreme court
adopted a rule permitting citizens the
right to appear in person and argue
cases in which they have a direct per-
sonal interest. Under this rule Mrs.
LYDIA B. Conley of Kansas City, Kan, a
Wyandotte Indian, applied for an in
junction to prevent the sale and desc
Grafton of a public cemetery in Kansas
City, which was reserved under treaty
made in 1855 between the Wyandotte
Indians and the United States govern
ment as an Indian burying ground
The case came before the supreme
court on appeal from the circuit court
of the district of Kansas.
Mrs. Conley's argument lasted more
than an hour. She confined herself
closely to her printed brief of 20 pages,
although several questions were put TO
her by members of the court, which
she answered readily and intelligently.
