EUGENE CATLIN WINS
SPELLING CONTEST

The spelling contest at the high
school building was won by Eugene
Catlin, pupil III the sixth grade Of
the city school. Eugene certainly was
a speller as he stood on the floor over
three hours before winning the con-
test.
The pupils of the fifth to the eighth
grade inclusive, were eligible to enter
and at the beginning of the contest
there were about sixty spoilers on the
floor, but one by one they were forced
to sit down until only four remained
and it began to look like they would
never miss but finally all were down
except Eugene and he was announced
to be the winner of the handsome gold
medal which was presented to him by
superintendent Masterson.
There was large crowd out to see
the contest and it was frequently inter-
rupted by bursts of applause as some
speller managed a word which was
almost too much for him.
The contest was ruled in quiet
orderly manner and it could be seen

BANKERS LOSE IN
OPENING CLASH
BY Hard Hitting the High School Team
Wins First Game in the City
League.

The High School baseball team in
the City League romped home with a
victory in their first clash of the sea-
son yesterday evening. when they de-
feated the Bankers by score of 13
to 6. The school boys started right
after the game in the first inning, four
of their counts being made in this
round. In hitting and base-running
the high school team clearly out-class-
ed their opponents. However the field
ing the Bankers shows better record
than that of the high school.
While the score indicates a rather
one-sided contest, the game was not
won until the sixth inning, when the
school boys added four to their lead
Of two and cinched the game in the
next inning with three more tallies. E.
Bennett started the toiling for the
Bankers but found the going hard and
was relieved by Bill Title, who had
even more trouble.
The interest of the crowd of bugs
is growing and the attendance yester'
day was little better than on the

worth the ten cents admission and the
games are called late enough to allow
all to see them. The game was over

HARRY MEAD COMPANY IS
HOLDING ANNUAL OPENING

Probably the most stupendous ad-
vertising proposition ever undertaken
by a mercantile house in northeastern
Oklahoma is the big opening this week
at the Harry Mead companys hard
ware and implement store in this city.
The opening began yesterday morning
and will close tomorrow night. Both
today and yesterday the big store was
crowded with farmers and their wives,
to whom a splendid luncheon was serv-
ed on both days. Demonstrators from
all of the factories of goods handled
by this company are on hand to demon
|strate the working of the various kinds
of machinery. and the three days OF
instruction will be of untold benefit to
the farmers in assisting them in the
selection of their farm implements,
buggies, wagons and hardware. 1t is
estimated that between four and five
hundred persons enjoyed the lunch
cons served in this store today, and
nearly as many on the opening day.

association Thursday morning was un-
animous and governs the merchants of
our organization. Every member OF
the board of directors was present.
There was not the suggestio nof a dis
senting vote. All are absolutely posi-
tive that the free daily is a menace to
business and harmful to society"
The retailers passed the resolution
in the hope that those starting the ru-
NOR win realize that the advertising
merchants are not in sympathy with
them. No ones name was identified
with the runor. and it is not known
positively that anyone is receiving suf-
ficient encouragement to seriously en-.
tertain the project it is said. The
resolutions were passed only to let it
be known that another free daily is
not wanted.
