These are times in which party
lines are being largely eliminated in
that different schools of thought are
being created with the two great
political parties, leaders are being ar
rayed against leaders and interne-
cine strife and contention prevail. 1t is
an alignment in which predatory priv
ilege is warning with the interests of

Very truly yours.
4. L. WESTERVELT,

The above, issued as bulletin by
the Pioneer Telegraph and Telephone
company conveys news to the many
friends of Mr. VIM. II. Berry in thi,
city OF his well earned and merited
promotion by his company to po-
sitiOn well up toward the top. People
who know Mr.. Berry know that the
telephone people made no mistake in
promoting him over other and older
employees. He is young man in
years but an old head in the tele-
phone business While he has not
been with the Pioneer peopl for but
a little over one year, yet he has
been in this line Of business prac-
tically all OF his life.
Bsinning at the bottom of the lad
der over eighteen years ago he has
been associated with the local and
long distance companies of this coun-
try ever since. He was at one time
connected with the OLD Chickasaw
Telephone company and has been in
the business department of the long
distance at Chicago where he made
himself thoroughly familiar with the
work.
He came to Ardmore ten years ago
and has made this his Headquarters
ever since. When the Pioneer took
over the business in this territory he
went with them and that his SER
vices have proven valuable to them
is proven by his promotion.

FLEW TO PARIS
ON BUSINESS
French Aviator Broke Records
and Braved English Channel
SAID COAL STRIKE HAD
CRIPPLED MOVEMENTS

Paris. March 7.-Landing at
Issy-les Molineaux, a suburb of
Paris, at IL O'Clock this morning
in a monoplane, Henri Salvey,
the French flyer, brought with
him new worlds record for a
nonstop flight from London to
this city.
Braving unfavorable weather
and fighting much of his way
across the English Channel
through violent squalls, Salvey
made the 222 miles in two hours
and fifty seven minutes, or at the
rate of seventy-nine and one-half
miles an hour. His engine work
ed perfectly throughout the trip.
At 2 :15 O'Clock this afternoon,
having transacted the business
which brought him TO Paris, the
daring aviator climbed back in
to the seat of his monoplane and
headed it back toward London.
He expects to make slower time
on the return trip, as the wind is
against him.
Couldn't Depend on Trains
Salyey explained when he
alighted that his trip had been
purely on business and had been
undertaken without a thought
of setting any new records. He
said the train and steamboat SER
vice between London ann Paris
had been so crippled by the coal
strike that he had feared to trust
to this means of travel, as his
business was of most urgent
nature.
