YANKEE GIRL DOESN'T FIT
Austrian Critic Declares No Formula
Can Define Young Lady
From America.

Alice Schalek, Viennese traveller
and writer, has provided the Vossiche
IZeitung of Berlin with a description
of the manner wherein American
women on tour differ from all others.
THE fact is" she says, you cannot
class them (American women; they
won't fit into any accepted formula
You can tell Frenchwoman i'm
mediately, and be dead sure she's no
prude, but light-hearted fiirt. If you
meet an English woman you must wait
TO make her acquaintance until she
drops her typical English reserve.
"A German woman wants to be ask
I'D about her husband and his profess
sion, titles and their babies. An Aus
trian woman will be smart and
good fellow But II you meet a
woman who won't fit any OF these cat
Iegories and doesn't correspond to any
particular type, you can be dead sure
she is an American.
There is a 17-year-old whose IA
ther, mother and elder sister are
along, travelling in cabins de luxe.
She fiirts day and night on deck, and
all so naturally that she retains her
social position in circumstances no
other nationality could survive What
has it got to do with your she seems
to ask, and there's an end of it,
Here are some pictures from my
gallery of American girls abroad, just
to show their differences. A girl who
petted white rats and snakes in Kyoto;
q young " w. G. A. apostle in Corea,
who was as pious as the day is long
but who flirted to her hearts content
with a young English missionary; an
energetic middle-aged American fe-
male, who was missionary for some
obscure Partisan reincaruation of
Buddha.
There were other less pleasant
pictures, but each sticks in my mind
with an individuality which no Euro
pean woman ever achieved. Yet per-
haps there is one feature common to
all these Americans-each of them
cherished some eccentricity, but,
whatever it was, she carried it out
with unwavering determination.
i believe we can learn much from
these American women"

MURRAY DECLINES APPOINTMENT
Former Gubernatorial Candidate Re
turns Commission to cruee.

Oklahoma City. March 4.-William
H. Murray of Tishomingo has return
ed to Governor Cruce a commission
appointing hi mas a delegate to the
Southern Sociological Congress in a
letter declining TO accept the appoint
ment
Governor Cruce defeated Murray for
the democratic gubernatorial nominal
ton in 1910. The appointment was
purely honorary, carrying with it no
obligations whatever, but Murray, in
his letter, plainly indicates that he
does not desire to accept even small
favors from the hands of the head
of his party administration.
The Murray letter follows:
Il beg to acknowledge receipt of
your commission appointing me as a
delegate to the Southern Sociological
Congress, Nashville, Tenn, May to
10, 1912, movement beyond doubt
having in mind the future veal of
Dixie Land of the highest and broad
est conception. Indeed, many of our
present-day evils are problems of
sociology rather than of legislation
thoughts, sentiments and customs
must needs undergo change-the work
of time, of education, of growth. These
problems precede craftsmanship in the
abstract and are not less urgent in the
interests of the south than any other
section of the republic. Notwithstand-
ing all this, | must decline the honor
which such commission implies.
"The commission I herewith return
to your excellency, and the appoint
ment most respectfully decline. With
honor to myself or justice to my
friends, | can not accept this or any
oIner appointment under your excel
lencys commission The reasons there
fore are apparent to you and hence
need not be stated Having had notice
of this appointment also through the
press. take the liberty to make reply
by like methods.
With sentiments of highest regard,
by virtue of your high position, beg
to remain, truly and respectfully,
"WM. H. MURRAY"

state University Notes.

Oklahoma City March 5.-(Special1
superintendent R. II. Wilson has re-
turned from st. Louis where he at
tended the national convention of
school superintendents. He reports
that Oklahoma made splendid show
ing toward securing the next conven-
ton, being second on the first ballot
with nine candidates for the place.
The argument that by holding the con-
vention near Washington it would en-
able the members of the association
to witness the Inauguration ceremonies
on March 4th determined the selection
of Philadelphia over Oklahoma City.
At the regular meeting of the state
board of education held January 10th
and 11th it was decided that as many
members as could should attend the
st. Louis convention for the purpose
of meeting some of the men Of ma
tional reputation with view of max
ing selection for this most impor-
tant position. Five members of the
board attended the convention.
Il realize" said Superintendent VIII
son. that the election of president
of the state university means more
to the people of Oklahoma than any
other act we will perform and we feel
that when the name of the president
is announced that all who are inter-
ested in education will be pleased. At
st. Louis, we met about twenty of the
big men of the United States and all
of them spoke well of Oklahoma and
the work that is being done in this
state Some friends of the university
felt that the Misrepresentation Of
political chicanery that have been
sent out by designing persons would
hinder our securing an able president.
but this is not true. AS decided at the
January meeting, a meeting of the
board will be held beginning Thurs
day of this week for the purpose of
further considering the election of a
president
I'VE talked with many of the best
known educators of the United States
concerning the Akin bill" continued
Superintendent Wilson, "and all of
them seemed familiar with its pro-
visions. They all declared that it
would be the worst policy that Okla
homa or any other state could adopt.
Many of these parties were interested
in universities and university work
and declared that secondary schools
convenient to the people are essential

AMlABLE STUPIDITY IN WIFE
Once Clever Woman Was Doomed to
Celibacy Unless Clever Enough to
Act the Part of Fool.

Some years ago a smart London
magazine invited SO prominent men of
the day to declare their taste in wom-
en- and particularly whether they pre-
ferred clever or stupid wives.
And the so masculine nabobs, lit
erary, artistic, legal, commercial,
rushed eagerly into print on this most
delicate subject.
Forty-two Of them, comments Los
Angeles newspaper woman, pro-
nounced in favor of amiable stupidity,
especially in wives. Seven of them
one was Max O'Rell-balked the ques-
ton and found charms on both sides.
And only one declared that he honest
iy preferred clever woman, provided
she did not think she was cleverer
than he was.
And what happened? 1t just shows
the cussedness of the sex. Instead of
promptly cultivating amiable imbecil-
ity and thus making the supply equal
to the demand every last female
among them decided that she would be
clever from henceforward. No com
mercial instinct, you see!
And for a year or two things came
to such pass that clever woman
was foredoomed to celibacy from the
outset unless she was clever enough
to act the fool. From the marriage
records one reasonably concludes that
q good many Of them acted the fool.
But now? Why there never was
such demand for clever women. Not
only are they considered absolutely
necessary in the various professions in
which intelligence is at high premi-
um. but men even want to marry
them!

carried an utterance from Representa-
tive Jackson of Kansas to this effect:
@Thereodore Roosevelt is the only man
the republicans can name who can de-
feat Woodrow Wilson"
1t is no secret that the Taft and
stand-pat republicans are indulging in
the hope that Woodrow Wilson will
be deprived of the nomination at the
Baltimore convention. They much
prefer some other candidate

Postponement.

On account OF continuous inclement
weather the special services at the
Presbyterian church have been post
poned until later date.
w. o. DAVIS. Pastor,
Franklin's paper the statesman., 1912-10-26
TO WHOM 1T MAY CONCERN.

The attack made upon the Rev. j.
copal church last week by seven
Presbyterians is unwarranted, unpro-
voked and a fabrication pure and
simple.
We, the officers of Scott Methodist
Episcopal church, in Official Board
assembled, desire to inform the pub
lie that we and the membership of
the church have the utmost conf
dence in our pastor as clean, up
right Christian gentleman. We are
proud of the record which he has
made in our city during the four
years of his pastorate. He has the
respect of both races in this city and
has filled with credit places on the
platform in white and colored
churches. We shall continue to give
him our undivided support as long as
he conducts himself as Christian
gentleman as he has done in the past.
The finance of Scott's are conduct
ed on the plan of the discipline of
the greatest Protestant church in the
world Reports of each department
are made every three months in the
quarterly conference. The Trustees
and Stewards report every month be-
fore the Official Board.
We realize that it is a detriment
to the church to stoop to any mud
singing. We therefore refrain from
this method of getting even.
We have nothing but unutterable
pity and no resentment for those who
have attacked the character of one
of our most highly respected and
leading ministers in the Lincoln Con
ference.
Scott's church stands for the build
ing up of Christian character and not
for destruction. 1t is our policy to
"recompense no man evil for evil
and TO do unto others as we would
have others do unto us"
