Times Inquiry Department:
Will YOU please tell me something that
will remove the marks OF chocolate ice cream
soda water from a green silk parasol?
have been advised to put the parasoI IN the
rain, and dry it open. Do you think that
this will remove the water marks? Yours.
A CONSTANT READER.
Perhaps you might remove the spots
with a little ether, applied with
sponge, and allowed to dry. If this does
not remove the stain, I fear there is no
other method, unless you care to wash
the parasol with ivory soap and warm
water. Open the parasol, and 90 over
It thoroughly with soapsuds, rinsing it
off and allowing it to dry in the sun
shine If this is done rapidly, there is
no danger of rusting the goods with
which the parasol is covered.

TIES BURN

Fire. supposed to have originated
from the sparks from an engine, broke
out in the north material yards Of the
Rock Island today and burned $500
worth Of railroad ties. The fire gong
was sounded and the department made
a run. but when it was discovered
that the fire was out Of the water
limits and out Of the city the wag-
ons were brought back to the station
by Chief Gattis.
Tthe blaze lasted for several hours
and made terrible smoke. From the
downtown district it looked to be in
the factory district Of the Frisco ad-
dltion.
The grass in the yards caught fire
and the flames spread to the pile OF
ties.

to the editor Of the Daily Times. who
Is also president Of the Oklahoma
Press association. relative to the e.
cent meeting Of the association at
Chickasha. Secretary C. c. Kirkpat-
rick OF the Chickasha Chamber Of
Commerce. gays.
Il assure you il was a real pleasure
for the citizens OF Chickasha to en-
tertain such a live bunch of boosters
as the Oklahoma editors are.
1T is my firm belief that the news
papers Of Oklahoma have performed
a greater service for the state than
any other single agency. The very
fact that we have grown so rapidly
in the last decade, showing per-
.centage Of gain of 1909 per cent in ten
years, is indicative Of the fact that
the new paper men Of Oklahoma have
been continuously on the job and have
dene their work well.
Come and see us again.
Very truly yours,

BAR ASSOCIATION BUTTS INTO
SUPREME COURT SQUABBLE
Will Test the Law Requiring the Su-
preme Court Justices To Reside
In Lansing.

The Detroit Bar association, in its
annual meeting, Tuesday afternoon,
in the county building, introduced by
Alex. j. Groesbeck, adopted a reso-
luton, calling for the appointment Of
committee to prosecute an action,
testing the constitutionality of the
law, requiring justices of the su-
preme court to reside In Lansing,
during their term of Office. This ac-
ton was taken as a result of Gov.
Osborn's reprimand of Justice Bird
because he spent part of his time at
his home in Adrian instead of living
In Lansing as the law requires.
Attorney Otto Kirchner opposed
the resolution, declaring that the law
was enacted that the supreme court
justices might always be in hand and
available TO the lawyers of the state.
He did not see that the bar associa-
ton here had any right to attempt
to have the law declared unconstitu-
tional
1t was announced that the associa-
ton had been re-incorporated as the
Bar of the City of Detroit
The following officers were elected:
Allan II. Frazer, president; Sidney
T. Miller, first vice-president; Robert
T. Gray, second vice-president; Stew
art c. Griswold, secretary and Wade
Mills, treasurer.

SIMPLICITY MUST
MARK GRADUATION
Girls Will Be Limited To One Com
mencement Dress and Presents
Will Be Barred at School.

ANN ARBOR, Mich, May 10.-The
girls OF the Ann Arbor high school
graduating class will be limited TO
one commencement dress this year,
according TO decision made yester-
day by the teachers of the school.
In the past, ii has been considered
necessary for the girls to have a
gown for each OF the commencement
festivities, but the teachers have
placed ban on multiplicity of
dresses, and the young women will,
accordingly, wear the same gowns
commencement day they wear at the
senior honor exercises.
Not content with the evidence of
real democracy the teachers also is
sued orders that members of the
class may not receive commencement
presents at the high school on the
day OF commencement day. In the
past members of the class have We'd
with each other in the matters Of
presents on commencement day, and
from little tokens presented by ad-
miring friends the list of presents
in the past few years have included
everything which could be lugged
into the hall.
Naturally, in a class of 100 gradu-
ates there are many who get no pres
ents at all. The result of the lavish
display of presents among the more
fortunate has been bitter feeling
among those who get nothing, and
the custom will be stopped. The
graduates will be allowed TO receive
flowers, but 1t Is expected that even
this custom will be done away with
after this year.
