State School for Oklahoma Girls
Asks An Appropriation of 10000

1 icy of maintaining one great state ed
ucational institution for the higher
education of girls in all its phases,
industrial, literary, scientific and ar
tistic. We believe that this policy is
good one and that the legislature
which created the |. |. & c. showed
sound judgment. The reasons which
justified the founding of the school
apply with equal force when the mat
ter of appropriations for its develop
ment is at issue. If the Legislators
deviate from the policy inaugurated
when the enterprise was launched II
will be a step backward which should
not be countenanced.
If the Legislators will take the trou'
BILE to acquaint themselves with the
facilities maintained in the girls
schools of other states they will find
that dormitories are absolutely neces-
sary to maintain the proper amount
of care over the students. Parents
who send their girls to the school
expect them to be guarded as zeal
ously as they are in their own homes
and this cannot be done without dor
mitories. without the dormitory sys-
TEN the school must be seriously Grip
pied in carrying out the purposes for
which it was created.
We believe, therefore, that sound
and consistent educational policy de-
mands that the Legislators promptly
make the necessary appropriation for
the erection of dormitory. The !.
l. e. C. stands in a class by itself
and legislation in regard to it should
bas based on its own particular needs,
Precedents taken from the handling
of other schools in the state have lit
tie or no bearing on the question. 1t
is simply a matter of providing funds
for the development of the girls
school along the lines demanded by
good policy and in the manner con-
templated when the constitution was
founded

ert Child, a Louisiana negro, made
the most unique plea for liberty
yesterday morning ever heard by the
police Judge. This plea and the fact
that Child had two dollars saved him
from a turn on the stone pile. When
the charge of vagrancy against the
negro was called, he stated his case
as follows: Il come all de way from

the records will be safe from fire. The
new contract will make no provision
for attorney fees in the former liti-

by the old state capitol commission.
