A Home Institution FOR Home Men,

1t has been said that the neatest
home on Caddo street is the one built
by a share holder in the Peoples
Building and Loan Association, with
money secured from that institution.
Be that as it may, this home is evil
dence of two things, that this assocla-
mon is help to the one who would
help himself and that it only loans
money on the best security.
The lot upon which the house in
question was built was owned in fee
simple by the borrower and the
monthly payments which he is maxi
ing are rendering the security more
and more gilt edged every day.
For safe investment every day,
one where your money is secured by
steadily advancing real estate values
it would be hard to find a better op-
portunity than is offered by this COM
pany.
The president of the association, as
well as the secretary is a man who
is known to every one in Ardmore as
straightforward and an upright bus.
mess man. The people of this city
recognized his integrity and ability
as a business man wheI. they elected
aim their mayor, and in the business
world he is recognized as a success.
This can also be said of the secre-
tary, W. A. Edwards. who will gladly
give any full information upon the
plans and ideas of the association.

GETAWAY FRANK
 IN TEMPE NOW
Famous Chase Recalled by Placing of F. H. Lasher on Honor" Roll, and Sending Him to Tempe Colony.

F. H. Lasher. the man who has caused the officers of this county more trouble than a political cleo tion through his propensity to go somewhere else. has been placed on the Tempe honor roll by Governor Hunts prison refOrmers
 Lasher is the original little escaper. He does not like to be locked up. and before his capture did not hesi- tate to say so. His opinion so far as known has never changed, yet he is taken from the state prison at Flor ence and sent to Tempe to work upon the bridge at that place.
 Presumably he will receive the same liberties which are accorded other "unfOrtunates" there and will doubtless be permitted to go and come as freely as any other pris- oner.
 Lasher is a "trusty" now. but with the opportunities for get away" at Tempe those who are familiar with his traveling propensties cannot help feeling that the gentlemanlN convict
 may possibly decided to try another summer climate.
 Lasher was taken to Tempe yes terdaN in company with dozen others from the penitentiary by Cap tain Joe Bush for work upon the state bridge at that point, where about sixty conyicts are now em- i ployed.
 1 Lasher was accused of stealing d | team of horses and d carriage from 1 Globe. He came to Phoenix from l which place he made clear get away, turning up next in Oregon. 1 A deputy sheriff went north for 1 the prisoner. and was met with a bitter eXtradition fight He finally 1 slipped away with his captive and
 headed for the California line when 1 Lasher again escaped from the clutches of the law, and some time elapsed before he was re-arrested hy ! the Los Angeles authorities This
 time he was safely landed in Phoc- nix where his trial and conviction 1 followed.
 Now he is working on the Tempe 1 bridge.

Proba bLe Presidential Vote

It is estimated that more than b. Oo0,O0 votes will be cast in the presidential election next Novem- Der This contemplated increase over former presidential elections will be due largely to the unusual interest that is being manifested in the important questions involved in the conflict for supremacy on the part of the two national parties
 In 1908 the total vote was 15.SS7.- 900; in 1910 it was 1S,965, 900, and in 1892 it was 12,O44, 900
 In the campaign between McKin- ley and Bryan the interest was in tense on account of the questions involved, and large vote was the result. There was little interest manifested in the election of 1904, when Roosevelt ran for a second term, and the vote was small.
 At no time has there been such general interest in the questions which will fall to the hands of the national government for settlement. and the struggle in both parties for the triumph of certain things, which is being fought both for and against with great intensity. is expected to bring out the largest vote ever cast in the history of this government
 The fight between President Taft and Colonel Roosevelt is arousing the people of both parties, and re- gardless of which one triumphs for the nomination the public interest will not abate until the matter has been fought out in the general cleo tion between the democratic and re- publican parties.

THIRD YEAR FUR HIGH SCHOOL SUMMER TERM
Many Students will Avail Themselves of Opportunity for Extra
 Work.

Phoenix summer school will begin it's third years work in the high school building on June the third. Professors Michael and Jones. who directed the work last year, will con duct the school with the assistance of other members of the high school faculty.
 The summer school is of particular advantage to those who have lost part of the regular high school work through sickness or some other cause, and to high school students who wish to cover more ground in a year than can be covered in the regular school term of nine months The students last year were mostly from the high school but a number of outsiders also studied in the classes.
 In the summer school each recitd- tion period is an hour long. and the classes are small giving each student the benefit of much individual in struction As a result the summer school covers in ten weeks the exact equivalent of a semesters work in the high school and full credit for a half years work is given on the high school books
 The school is open day and night ! The morning sessions last from sev- en to eleven a. m.. and the night sessions from seven to nine ?. m The classes are held in the north end of the big high school building, one of the coolest places in town, and electric fans serve to keep the rooms comfortable
 Some of the subjects offered are algebra. geometry, science. English Latin, history, bookkeeping. penman- ship, typeWriting, commercial law and business correspondence. Students may enter this week and an early registration will aid thc faculty materially in arranging the schedule nf classes
 The sessions of 1910 and 1911 Werl emnently successful The fact tha' i the high school accredits fully tn, ] summer schools work is the best O 1 recommendations for the latter insti- i tuition. Many inquiries have already
 been received from prospective stu 1 dents and the outlook is good for ; l prosperous session

The Twain Memorial

Mark Twain passed his boyhood in Hannibal, Mo. It was there that he lived the life which inspired Huckleberry Finn and Tom Sawyer.
 Consequently. it is especially fit ting that Hannibal should perpetuate his memory. and two public-spirited residents of that city have bought Mark Twains boyhood home and presented it to the municipality, to be held as a memorial to the famous humorist
 MT and Mrs. George A. Mahan are the givers of the old-fashoned house in which Twain passed his happy boyhood days and lived the life which was so graphically described later in Tom Sawyer and Huckle- berry Finn. These admirers of the great storyteller have restored the once dilapidated building to it's former condition, and a tablet at the door explains that the house was the ppN IIpou lpIIlt pI StIlItitI I-- CltiIlei0' and was erected by his father, John Marshall Clemens. in 1S44.
 The spirit of Twain's Mississippi river tales stin hovers about the Missouri town, and the establish ment of the Twain memorial should induce many admirers of the humor- ist's work to visit the spot where he received the inspiration for his greatest work.
 Professor Brander Matthews has frequently said that "Huckleberry Finn" is the greatest work of fiction ever written in the English lan- guage, and many other critics have confirmed this opinion Lovers of this book will be especially inter ested in Hannibal and the Twain home, for the home of Huckleberry Finn, who was Tom BIankenshfp in real life, is but a block away from the Clemens house. and is still standing
 The Mark Twain memorial will be dedicated on Wednesday. and the thoughts of thousands of Twain's readers and admirers will turn rever- ently on that day to the town or the drowsy river which held sucf charm for the humorist Nevada and California and Connecticut an6 Germany all played a large part ir his later life, but his greatest work centered about the Mississippi river Nobody else has ever succeeded 1T lending the same charm and romance to stories of the days when thu Father of Waters was the center O all activity in the Mississippi Val ley, and the railway offered but lit tie rivalry to the proud steamer, which have long since fallen int, [ 6iSUSp

EXPANSION OF TIE
 PAVING DISTRICT
Work Now In Progress on East
 Adams Street.


 It is proverbial that those who fight the hardest against public inn provement or in fact an innovation of any sort, are quite apt to become
 it's most ardent supporters once the benefits of the movement have been
 demons trated This has been illus
 trated again in the paving movement
 in this city A few progressive men
 got together and after a lot of hard
 work got the project under way, overcoming many enbarra ssments,
 and now nearly everybody wants
 paving.
 The best of it is that the pave
 ments are constantly going down,
 not as fast as one would like to see
 but if the work keeps on long enough the populOus part of the city will be covered At the present time the work is extending east on Adams and preparations are under way for more work on West Washington. It is understood the first contracts are from Fourth avenue to Seventh, but it is also understood that property owners west. of there are rapidly get ting in a frame of mind to extend the work further and it may be eX- pected that it will not be a long time in the future when one can motor over a clean pavement clear to the capitol.
 Paving costs a little money and so do the electric light standards, but so also does any original investment and it is fast being shown that these are good investments, which reflect the outlay in increased valuations,
 faster perhaps than almost any inn provement of like cost
