for the little crowd despite the fact OF
its being a farewell party,

PORCH
LUNCHEON,

A rather novel idea for summer
luncheon to be given on a porch is to
use four or six small tables, spread
ing over them the big frames made
for wagon umbrella use, covered with
paper Towering vines. One table
should be of wistaria with the heavy
stems running down through the CEN
ter of the table to the standard, the
table itself to be covered with a lilac
art linen square, with serviettes to
match. The second table should have
the umbrella Of pond lilies, their long
stems twining about the handle and
being caught at the bottom by cat
tails, the table being covered with an
art square of corn color with the
serviettes to match. The third table
may have the umbrella of the crimson
rambler rose vine and roses, and the
table below should be covered with the
art linen in the old soft gray green.
The fourth table may be of pink
morning glory vines and blossoms and
the linen covers below of the pink
linen. Each table should use, IL pos
sible, the china that is of the same col
or as the flowers, and in the menu the
ices, jellies and cake should carry out
the color scheme as far as 1t il possible
to do so.

TRY A
WALKING TOUR.

TRY A
WALKING TOUR.
The walking outr, or, rather, the
sauntering tour, is a good way for the
business girl to pass her summer vaca-
ton. There is a mistaken impression
that delights Of this sort are only
within the reach of athletic creatures
who devote hours a day to dumbben
exercises and always have health jour-
nails sticking out of their pockets.
There is no reason why any girl
should consider herself a semi invalid
just because she works in an office.
Walking is a natural process and
there is no necessity TO walk far
Even five or six miles a day gives the
delightful sense of vagabondage, the
adventure of sleeping in a strange
place and the pleasant satisfaction of
accomplishment, quite as well as the
twenty or twenty-fi five mile walk Of the
experienced tramper. Few girls care to
go walking alone, but with girl COM
panion, stout walking stick and her
wits about her Their is nothing to fear
from any one.
Clothes must be carefully chosen for
a walking tour. They must be such
as will stand a shower and comforta-
BILE enough to lounge in by the way.
Soft silk blouses are better than
Starched ones. Other Things can De
sent in advance by mail or express to
be worn on the longer halts. But it is
always safer to carry the absolutely
necessary things in a light knapsack.
With a night gown, an extra pair of
stockings, comb and a tooth brush,
it is possible to be comfortable for a
night II the Journey is delayed or some
place by the way calls for exploration
and upsets the vagrant plans. The
knapsack should also contain map,
which will be found more useful than
the directions usually given by the ma
tiVes.

EXTRA LEVY IS IMPOSSIBLE
SAYS GOVERNOR CRUCE

Oklahoma City, Nov 22.-"The fact
that one banker who holds as many,
or possibly more, state warrants than
any other man in the state has offered
to take at 4 per cent an entire issue
of funding bonds up to $3,000,00O to
pay off the warrants, would not indi-
cate to me that the unpaid warrants,
which are as we'll secured as the bonds
would be, and which bear per cent
interest, are burdensome,' said Cover
nor Lee Cruce, Tuesday, in discussing
the situation relative to the mandamus
suit, which has been brought by nine
banks to compel the state board of
equalization to increase the state levy
11a mills and thus provide for the de
ficit that now exists.
The situation is somewhat compli-
Gated. Attorney General West has
held that the board of equalization has
no authority to levy for the outstanding
warrants of 1907, 1908 and 1909, and
this leaves the 1910 warrants which re-
main unpaid to be provided for
mo living mathematician can figure
out just how much of the deficit ac
|crued in 1910 and determine how much
should be levied to pay warrants for
that year. declared Governor Cruce
"No one knows, or possibly can know
just what the amount of the deficit in
the revenues for current expenses last
year amounted to-"
To raise sufficient funds to pay off
the entire deficit of about $2,S000OG
would be ispossible, says the governor
since it would require a levy of ap
proximately 46 mills and the consti
tutional levy is but 3.5 mills. The
total property valuation of the state Is
about $1,327, 100000 and the law pro
vides that an estimate of 20 per cent
shall be added to the sum which is tt
be raised in order to cover Delinquent
taxes 1t would thus be necessary t
add 20 per cent to the $2,S00,000 o.

Tax Board Will Appeal.

Oklahoma City, Nov. 23-Attorneys
for the state board of equalization will
appeal to the supreme court from the
order of the Oklahoma county district
court granting a peremptory writ of
mandamus requiring the board to make
the state tax levy sufficient to take up
the outstanding deficiency warrants.
According to Governor Cruce, chair
man of the board, this years valuation
is approximately ,3OO,0OO,OOO, upon
which the board levied mills. In order
to make levy to gather the $2,S00,000
complained of in the suit, 20 per cent
of that valuation would have to be
added for delinquents, thus swelling
the state levy to 4.6 mills, or IL mills
in excess of the state constitutional
limit.

Sues For $4,000 Damages.

Tulsa, Okla, Nov. 21.-The haviest
damage suit filed in the local courts in
many months went on record today
when T. H. Kosier sued the Tulsa Cor
poration for $4,000 damages for in
juries received while in tn company's
employ. He alleges that through the
.carelessness and negligence of the
company, he came in contact with a
live wire while working on the top of
a telephone pole and received a shock
which hurled him to the ground, in
flicting such injuries as to disable him
for life. He says the fall crushed his
thigh and forced the bones of his limb
to protrude through a cash twelve
inches long. He claims his health
has been ruined and he is unable to
work again.

Denies Capital RehearIna.

Oklahoma City, Nov 2S.-Word has
reached here by way of Guthrie that
the supreme court of the United States
has denied a rehearing upon the petit
ton of Thomas p Whitley of that city
in the state capital removal case.
The supreme court of the United
States, in a majority opinion, held that
the state had the right to change its
capital, since the inhibition attempted
to be placed by congress was not bind
ing. Whitley drafted new brief, and,
through courtesy of one of the Guthrie
attorneys, was permitted to file it, with
an application for rehearing. Ac-
cording to information that came from
Guthrie yesterday the petition was
denied, which might be said to end that
case for all time to come.

of having advocated allotment of the
tribal lands. 1t was at the time when
the Frisco railroad built into Vinita in

BOOSTER CAMPAIGN
NEEDED IN V|NITA
Immense Wealth in Natural Resources
Should Be Told For Benefit of
Homeseekers.

One of the things most needed in
Vinita is a stringent campaign of ad-
vertising. Why should Vinita hide
her light under a bushel? No other
town in all this great and resourceful
state has anything on Vinita, when it
comes to natural resources and it is
probable that Vinita is less advertised
outside the confines of this particular
section than any other town in the
state. Viii other towns are making
a great noise over some particular
branch of industry Vinita, situated in
the heart of the richest agricultural
country in the world, with oil, gas,
coal lead, zinc and other minerals at
her very door undeveloped and with
the greatest asset of aIl-plenty of
good pure artesian water for all pur-
poses, sits by and waits for the immi-
grant from the north and east to find
her out.
Aside from little advertising being
done by few real estate men of the
city, Vinita is letting a golden oppor-
tunity go by. This is the season of
all seasons when this city's advantages
should be made known to the home
seekers, who are pouring into this
state. When all of the rest of the
southwest had an almost total crop
failure Vinita territory has produced
more corn, hay and other crops this
year than for many years in the past.
The homeseeker from the east comes
here, sees these things and locates,
but there are thousands looking for
homes whose lucky star does not guide
them to Vinita. These are the ones
an advertising campaign would reach.
A look around Vinita shows that a
wonderful change has come over the
city in the last few years The city
has grown from a hamlet to a city of
goodly proportions within the last
twenty years. This has all been ae-
complished with a comparatively small
amount of advertising.
