OLD BOARD WILL
CONTROL SCHOOLS
THE CHANGES WERE so SLIGHT
THAT NO TROUBLE WILL BE
HAD IN REORGANIZATION.

From hurried reading OF tR
opinion of the supreme court, 1t
seems plain that the former school
board must come in and take the
place of the present board. The
court says that the schools are Of
general interest, that they must come
under the control OF the state and
not be controlled by municipalities
This opinion Is not surprise ~
the people of ArdmOre who have
kept up with the question. Judge Har-
rie OF Toledo, Ohio. who rendered
the opinion for the Ardm0reite on
the question Of making payments on
the street pavements, also wrote an
opinion on the charter control Of the
schools and cited 80 reasons why
the charter could not control the
schools. The opinion Of the Oklahoma
court is in keeping with the opinion
OF Judge Harris, and those who have
been directly interested in the ques-
tion are not surprised.
There could not be a change In
board scarcely that would cause
as little trouble as the contemplated
change here will cause. Y. B Lynn
will retire from the board and r. l..
Smith will again assume member
shin. W. !. Cruce will again assume
membership and these are all the
changes that will be made The
board was practically all reelected.
The old school board was composed
of W. l. Cruce. c. l.. Anderson, r. l..
Smith. G.. H. Bruce, \. II. Palmer
and 4. &. Young.

THE ELKS PARADE
WAS BIG SUCCESS
WILD MAN FROM DUNCAN IN AN
IRON CAGE-NovIcEs PUSHED
BABY BUGGieS.

Tuesday was Elks day in Ardmore.
Members of the local lodge
other towns were visitors In ;hc city.
travelling men made it convenient to
remain here for the eNerc.~es and
about sixty members of the Oklahoma
City crowd joined with the an
herd. The occasion was the initia-
ton of a class of eighteen. Every
May the Elks institute roundup and
this year they caught in the wilds OF
the forest as fine a bunch of novices
az was ever corralle1. Deb Jo"ee
who was found in the jungles of Dun.
can. was the widest OF the en- ir,
herd. He was bound In ropes "'
placed in iroas and confined in cage
The cage was drawn by a midget e
the mule variety and was pushed
two other candidates. The candidate
was violent at times throughout the
parade. Boys who came too close were
frightened away by the effor,s OF the
Duncanite to secure his release. The
police mounted and armed rode close
behind to take care of the innocents
I'm case an outbreak occurred
The Roman chariot waddlcd NJ
streets with novice Harry Loweusteiu
as driver. one of the golden wheels
stood by his guns and therewas no
accident that caused loss of life or
limb.
True to the instinct of the Ella,
wherever he may be found there was
a bunch of fellows that made run
for the water wagon. As odd as /;
may seem the Marietta novices made
specially of riding on the water
wagon.
| Emblematical OF the love of family
and of home, that every Elk has In
stilled into his very soul, some of the
/ young fellows sought out baby bug
gies and from their own preferences
of particularly displaying those home.
ly qualities rolled the buggies through
out the entire length of the parade.
| Those same young men hesitated to
part with the baby buggies after
reaching the Elks' home and in or!er
| to restore them to the mothers who
had been deprived of their use dur
ing the parade the novices had to be
promised some big red sticks of cand,
before they would give them up.
The parade was led by the junior
concert band. long lines of marching
Elks were lined up, automobiles dec
GRATED in purple and white and witt
mounted heads of elks were fllef
with officers and prominent visitors
Esquire Suggs mounted on hand
some gray charger. marshalled the pa
rade and herded the novices in line
The parade was one of Spectacular
beauty and the crowds OF cheering
people lined the sidewalks.
The initiation began in the after
noon and lasted until almost twelve
o'clock. when all the Elks repaired I,
their homes. The May class was mad,
up of fine set of young fellows. VIII,
