BOYS AND GIRLS
RALLY POSTPONED
THE ORIGINAL DATE CONFLICTS
WITH CARTER COUNTY FARM
ERS' INSTITUTE.

Owing to a conflict in dates it is
doubtful when the Carter county boys
and girls clubs will have their rally
day. 1t was originally intended to
have the celebration on the second
Saturday in July, but the Carter
county farmers institute picnic will
be in progress at Springer on that
date and arrangeme nts have been
made to such an extent that it is i'm
possible to call that affair off at pres
ent. The first Saturday in July the
Carter county singing convention
meets at Plainview and it would be
impossible to have the rally ON that
date, and Mrs. Scott, who has charge
of the girls canning club stated this
morning that she feared the third
Saturday would be too far into the
canning season to get many to attend.
Mrs. Scott stated that she would con-
suit with Mr.. West of the Commercial
club and see what arrangements could
be made to have the rally so that it
would not conflict with previously
planned affairs and announcement
would be made through the press la
ter.

RETURNED FROM
CALF FORN|A FRIDAY
FRANK HYDEN SAYS THAT 1T is
A GREAT COUNTRY, BUT DUAL.
IFlES HIS STATEMENT.

Frank Hyden returned from Cali
fornia Friday night where he has been
for some time visiting with his father
who resides at San Diego, and look
ing over the country.
He reports that he had a very en-
joyable time and that California was
undoubtedly country of great nat
ural resources and wealth. He states
that the people of that section are
busy with their fruit crop at present
and that prevailing prices for labor
is high with the demand good, but
that the condition of the laborer is
not as good there as here.
He spent sonnet ime with L. G.
Shelton, formerly police judge of this
city, but now ap racticing attorney of
Los Angeles. Mr.. Shelton, according
to statements of Mr.. Hyden, is doing
nicely and has nice home 25 miles
from Los Angeles, where he com
mutes" with other suburbanites on the
interurban.
En- route to California he stopped
over for a day at Phoenix, Arizona,
and met Luther Landrum and A. n.
Jones, who formerly were in business
in Ardmore.

CHARGES AGAINST cRUCE.

The man who would kick a dog
which sleeps at his dor is not worthy
of a place of trust even in a horse
thief association and the man who Is
disloyal to friends is not worthy to
which sleeps at his door is not worthy
of the comforts of a home or the
love and trust of children.
The legislative members who have
criticised Governor Cruce commend
him for his fine personal character
and charge him only with loyalty to
friends. Lee Cruce does not need
the recommendation from the legls-
lature as to his personal character
The people of Oklahoma know Lee
Cruce as well as the members of the
legislature and they are not seeing
him through glasses of prejudice. II
Lee Cruce would let the Legislature
make his appointments they would
add some other good things to theil
recommendations but Governor Cruce
makes his own appointments and re-
ceives the criticism of the Legislative
committee.
If Lee Cruce were disloyal to a
friend he would be disloyal to Okla
homa.

the interests of our people. John

JOHN RlNGLlNG.

When John Ringing said: Il do
not want the $50 that is raised by
the man who must deny his family
things they need in order to pay 1t,
he gave an insight to his own per-
sonal nature which only those who
have an opportunity to get close TO
him have observed. John Ringing
came here to build a line of road to
the west, he saw as result of that
line that every property holder in the
city would be benefited and that
every owner of lands along the route
would have his lands become more
valuable and he felt justified in ask
ing for a bonus sum. lie has been
here for one week and has had occa-
sion to learn how the money was be-
ing raised and who were giving 1t.
One of the first things to attract his
attention were the bonus votes OF $lO
and $50, they were numerous in num-
Der and his thought was that they
were being given by people who would
profit from the advance in real es-
tate and they were small giyers tc
the fund compared with the benefits
they would receive. But when he
made inquiry into the affairs Of these
men he learned they werec Jerks and
printers and BARRIERS and laborers in
the great world of industry who
owned no preptrty but who were CIV
ing generously of their means to sec
the town do something. When the
facts were made known to him they
touched his heart and he said he did
not want the money that was being
given by the man who must deny his
family in order to pay it.
John Ringing began life at the
bottom of the scale as far as finan-
coial worth is concerned. As our
fathers labored on the farms and In
the shops, his father labored; as we
began life without money, so did
Ringing; in his climb in the finan-
cial world in his making of millions
he has never lost sight of the early
struggles and sacrifices and days OF
toll and his heart beats in unison for
the common veal with the man who
lons his overalls and works with
machinery or at the carpenters bench.
Mr. Ringling's visit to Ardmore
has given him an opportunity to come

that made it impossible for corn to
mature.
The rainfall of Sunday was Dot
general over The county. DR.. o.
Wood said a good rain fell at Manns-
vile and those people believe they
will make good corn crop without
any more rain. DR.. McNeese was
visiting a patient few miles west
of Ardmore and says the rainfall
there was heavy. Lone Grove was
visited by only light shower. VIII
Herweck, who resides nine miles
southwest OF Ardmore says his sec
tion had but light sprinkle and that
rain would be welcome upon the
corn. Joe Williford came in today
from WoodGord. No rain fell there
and corn is needing it, but is holding
up well, Editor George II. Wyatt,
who was here today from Madill
says a good rain fell there and every
thing is looking good.
