NOWATA. Okla. Dec. 2.-(Special.) }
With the increase In the price OF oil
the demand for production as an in
vcstment Is increasing and many deals
for the transfer Of property in the
shallow sand field are now in pro-
grcss. The price asked IL s25 In ex-
cess Of that demand two weeks ago
The Increase in the price of oil has
caused much talk of drilling to the
deeper sand in the Alluwe field. The
Prairie oil company's No. on the
Corine Davis. west of Nowata in the
Adair pool is reported dry. The oil
men do not consider that 1t en-
dcmns the property, rather being Of
the opinion that IT is freak well
and that the sand will be found on
another test. Paul Lovelrs No. 4, the
farthest north on the Dodge farm. is
the best producer yet brought In In
the Lowell pool. and seems to indicate
that tho sand is going northeast to-
ward the Delaware field.

When Women We're knIahted.

1t is not at all well known that
knighthood has constantly been con-
ferred upon women. Many English
ladies received the accolade, and
many more were members Of such
knight1y orders as the Garter and St.
John. When Mary Cholmondeley,
'the bold lady of Cheshire" was
knighted by Elizabeth for "her val.
liant address" on the Queen taking
command at the threatened invasion
by Spain, did she know that whole
city of Spanish women, the gallant
women of Tortosa, had been knight
ed for saving that city from the
Moors? Mary and Elizabeth had both
been knighted at their coronation, but
by the time Anne, the second Mary,
and Victoria assembled the throne 1t
had been quite forgotten that, accord
ing to English law and use, a woman
who filed a mans Office acquired all
its privileges and was immune from
none Of its duties.

MADAME Sherry at The Colonial
Next Wednesday Night.

There may be few in the audience at
the Colonial Wednesday, April 10. when
MADAME Sherry entertains, who will
miss the conventional rows of long,
lankv and over-dressed show-gir1s.
There may be few who will sigh for the
chorus girls that are sprightly only at
set intervals and then according to a
-honored schedule. None of thes e
will be on the stage of the Colonial and
the heaven to which all good playgoers
hope to go some day may be praised
that they are not. MADAME Sherry" is
not that kind of show. Girls there are
and wonderful girls. too. but they take
part in the action of the story and are
billed by Producer George w. Lederer as
the talking chorus" In Paris. such
crispv farces with music are called
''vaudevilles," which is dangerous title
in America where the term means some
thing quite different. A clearer classic
cation of Madame Sherry" is comedy
with music in which there is no senti-
mental slush and the actors appeal to
the mentality as well as the eye.

CLOSE ON GOOD FRIDAY
Rev. A. p .Grint Asks for General
Observance of the Day.

Rev. A. p .Grint Asks for General
Observance of the Day.
Editor the The Caledonian:
The observance of Holy Week and
Good Friday is remarkable in the
history of New England. A genera
ton or so ago Good Friday was to
the many as any other day. Not SO
today. Here in st. Johnsbury
churches of every name are empha-
sizing the sacred season. So far SO
good. And we rejoice. Now in view
of this emphasis on the part Of our
religious" citizens, may we venture
to plead that all the public schools
and the Academy be closed? 1t is
very true to many pupils such action
would be regarded as a present OF a
holiday, and not marking holy
day. But emphatically not to all.
It would anyway put an emphasis
on a solemn fact Of history that is
appropriate in a professedly Christ
ian community. We would also 60
further-close also, and for the
same reason, our museum and libra
nv. Such action would do no harm
TO ANYBODY but would, we are con-
fident, do good. Such suggested
action places an emphasis on the
day when the Saviour Of the world
was crucifedl If we think it appro-
pirate, and I certainly do, as Amer
leans to observe Decoration Day,
Fourth OF July, and Bennington Day
then as Christians we should place
an emphasis on Good Friday. Any
way make my appeal to "the pow
ers that be-" to the trustees OF our
schools, of our museum, Of our
library. We hope they will get
busy! Use the telephone for con-
sultationl Let us more generally
mark the day!
Yours very sincerely,
ALFRED POOLE GRINT.
