charge Of beating Norman Pinder, Il
negro, onefourth his size, IN d resort
sometmonths ago, but Pinder and the
witnesses failed to appear to press
the case today, and Judge Mulaueen
was Wroth. He was inclined to think
the court was imposed upon. Despite
Johnson's "Yo' honah, the Judge
raised the bail from fifteen hundred

Johnson's smile vanished like
smoke. He said his roll had been
'lattened by the lawyers, now con.

He Found in

Bert Shumate, car distributor for
the Pocahontas division of the Nor

ing from two weGSs' trip through
Kansas, Missouri and Oklahoma. The
thing which hit Mr.. Shumate most
forcibly was the push and enterprise

especially the get-up-and-get of the
Oklahoma City Chamber of Commerce
Mr.. Shumate thinks the Bluefield.
Graham chamber might get a few
points which would, If followed, ope-
rate in the direction of profit from
this body. He says:
The Oklahoma City Chamber
makes it a point TO interview every
stranger registered at the hotels, and
to show him the advantages of the
city and surrounding country. The
organization has the top floor of an
eighteen-story building and employs
seventy-five people in sending out ad-
yertising matter. The active member
ship numbers 1900, and the members
are all active" in the fullest sense OF
the word. No visitor from the east
escapes. He is taken to the Chamber
building from which most excellent
view of the city may be had, and the
advantages of the country are pump
ed into him by the gallon. II may
be hot air but tho country looks
mighty good to me- Next to West
Virginia it is a mighty close second.
and If West Virginia could borrow
some Of the Oklahoma spirit and en-
thusiasm, it would mean a commercial
awakening unprecedented in history. 4"
