The pitiful lack Of = proper place in
which TO stock what little OF this
world s goods is usually conceded TO
bolopg TO the pocketlcss sex. is one of
the main distinguishing features OF
wo,nauliind. The annoyance Of a hand
bug, the necessity Of carrying a sort of
dimiuutlye trunk in order TO have a
purse at all, arc minor details when
compared with the realities Of the case.
The wonder is that, hampcrcd as wome n
Qua and secure place for any needed
article, they have been able to get along
as well as they do. No man could ac-
complish that much. No man would
make the effort. Aud if il is trial
for the grown up female, what ridicu-
!ous situation it is for the school girl.
One can hardly tell whether to laugh
at or to pity the helpless bit of femi-
muity travelling on the street car in
the carly morning hours, With g load
Of books held together by, sheer force
of will (for it would be altogether too
boyish looking To carry them With

frantic dives for the little handbag in
which her carfare is placed. Extract
ing q powder puff, tiny box. a few
kerchief and a few other things, she
finally finds her book Of tickets and,
after paying her fare, carefully replaces
the whole assortment. Sometimes the
handbag is little metal contraptiop
made in imitation Of the silver aud gold
bags of tho wealthy folk, and some.
times it is crocheted affair, elaborate
ly wrought and now bopcIcss1y soilcd.
II would seem that girls dresses. at
least, might have pockets, and this
might be al least ono argument for a

Then when you come to think over

and not be permitted to act as he
knows the law? To man not know
ing the reason that a school book con

not seem blameless. Still the reason

The euII Creek Bridge.

There seems to be some contro-
versay as to where to locate this
bridge. Several things should be
taken into consideration So as to serve
the best interests OF the most people
at the least cost to the taxpayers and
to the best interests of the city. This
undoubtedly can be done by locating
the bridge at the old stand where ma
ture has prepared natural site for
a cheap, convenient, durable and at
the same time a very accessible and
easy way of passing from one part of
the city to the other, The streets on
the west side are all down to grade
Walks constructed and crossings most
ly all in together with direct connec-
tons west under Katy tracks for
school children without having to
cross railroad tracks.
On the east side every one can have
free access to the bridge with the
least distance to town by shady streets
well kept cement walks and one of
Vinita's beauty spots, Electric Park.
BY using the street north for the
bridge site most of the people would
have to travel several blocks out of
the way to the city and also the chill
dren who attend school would have
to travel third farther. The city
would have to build bridge where
it is not needed and at a cost fully
one-thlrd more than at the old stand.
More than that individuals have in
vested in land and made improve
ments at Electric Park at no cost to
the city whatever and spent their own
money to help beautify the town and
build up an institution beneficial to
every citizen of the city and commun-
ity and the citizens should see by their

Is 1t possible that our governor
means to use the state board of edu-
cation as a political machine?
In making his request for his ap-
pointtes to resign he expresses sur
prise that an appointee of his should
presume to act when he knew that 1t
was not the governors wish that he
should do so. Did it never occur to
the governor that his appointtees
might have conscience of their own,
and that their official oats were bind
ing ON them? II the board of educa-
tion was acting corruptly then he
should have removed them for cause,
and not for the reason that they
would not obey his beck If an ap-
pointee to an Office is to obey the man
appointing him, why not change the
official oath that the man receiving
the appointment could obey it? The
official oath should be something like
this: "You do solemnly swear that
you will support the constitution of
the IT, S. and the constitution Of the
state of Oklahoma, and that You viii
faithfully obey every nod and beck
of the governor who has appointed
you to this Office"

Interest in the big home products
show of Fargo manufacturers is not
abating. The attendance has increased
each day since the doors were thrown
open to the public. The crowds yes
were. larger than ever. 1t is estimated
that nearly 10000 visitors passed by
the exhibit stalls yesterday--ladies'
day.
The ladies of the city and from about
the state who are here for the con-
ventions evinced their appreciation of
the day set apart for them at the prod
ucts show by turning out in great
numbers. They visited the show in
pairs, singly and in groups They
praised the exhibits, jollied the gar
rulous demonstrators when they got a
chance to talk sampled the food prod
ucts, filled their pockets with, dainty
souvenirs and, went home rejoicing
to tell their daddies what nice lot
of manufacturer fellers' Fargo pos
sesses.
A regular, smiling, little reception
committee in himself, Sec. G. P. Stine
of the commercial club was on the
job all day, extending the glad hand
to the visitors. At one minute he was
joining some fair spectator in glass
of milk. The next second he would be
helping test some candy. Then he
could be seen doing a bear cat rag
in the corner with some happy kid
He was also noticed at one time during
the afternoon seated in the big, soft
porch couch at the Wright & Sons
booth, with a pretty visitor on each
side.
When the secretary started to close
up shop and go home last night
somebody asked: well, Mr.. Stine,
| are you all tired out tonight?" and
Mr.. Stine replied: my dear friend
/ should say not. This has been one
| of the merriest little days in my ca :

additionally decorated for this occa-

demonstrators had been strengthened
for the day. Nearly all the exhibitors
gave away special souvenirs and

In honor of the ladies of the city and

was given at the booth Of the Stone

their mammas and papas, either; for
the show is theirs from cellar to gar
