their college career"
Rev. H. L. Boen Of the Episcopal
church was very positive in his re-
marks of disapproval of changing the
name OF the college to that of state
university. He said that the initial
of the college. a. !. c. means more
to the institution than any name that
can be suggested. The blending Of
the practical and the intellectual into
"a college course as these initials sig
Nifty will bring to projection one
of the grandest educational plans OF
the worlds history and the Chickasha
institution stands in line to perfect this
work" Mr.. Boen expressed himself
as being wholly out Of favor with the
university suggestion.

State E2ecutiDeS
in Conference
Is Fine Specimen
Of Workmanship

A specimen of expert workmanship
in wood is the clock which has been
made by C. A. Neher, carpenter in
the Rock Island shops, which can be
seen in the window at the Claycomb
G. Anderson furniture store.
The clock is seven feet high and is
made from three different kinds Of
wood, cherry. walnut and holly The
hand carving shown on the clock is
the best that has ever been displayed
in Chickasha. The main part Of the
clock is made from cherry, the mould
ings are of walnut and the inlay is OF
holly. The holly is imported wood
and the clock is very valuable.
Mr.. Neher has been working on the
clock during the evenings since last
March. This is the second piece Of
furniture that he has made but the
first was twenty years ago.
Mr.. Neher learned his trade as a
workman in wood in carriage factory
at Bremen, Ind. He has designed his
clock with the fret style of work. The
inlaid work on the front and sides Of
the clock which is used for decorative
purposes is the most attractive part
Of the clock. One especial feature
about the work is the perfect joint
work. The work is SO smooth that
by running your fingers along the fit
tings the jointing can not be detected.
