fast, "is it true that people who snore
have bad consciences? | read In one

Il don't know, dear. Perhaps they
have. What makes you ask such a
funny question:"

He says that he'd be mighty glad
To give up all he has today
If he could be a littA tad
With all his troubles scared away:
But If he thinks it's only fun
To just be ten or nine or less
And catch it for the things you've done

For forty things he didn't do.

amount Of gypsum consumed being
2,500.757 short tons. The value OF
gypsum and gypsum products was
s6,563, 908, an increase of $101,87S over
1911. In 1880 only 10000 tons OF gyp-

The bulk of the gypsum produced
in the United States is manufactured
by grinding and partial or complete
calcination into the various piasters,
such as plaster of Paris, molding and
casting plaster, stucco, cement plas-
ter, flooring plaster, and hard-hnish
plaster. Refined grades Of plaster are
used in dental work, for making pot
terry molds. stereotype molds, molds
for rubber stamps, and as an 1ngre-
dent in various patent cements. A
steadily increasing quantity Is being
used in the raw state as retarder In
Portland cement. Considerable guam

used as land plaster; smaller quaint
ties are used in the manufacture OF
paint, wall tints, crayons, paper, imita-

Chester Graham, charged with the
killing of j. Sears, will go to trial
before a jury in the district court
at PaWhuska next week. Judge X. IL.
Hudson will preside.
Graham and Sears lived on adjoin :

relied over a line fence. Graham also
accused Sears of stealing hound

alton. The climax came when Gra-
ham ordered Scar not to drive along
the road which paralleled the line
fence. On the morning of the trag-
edy Sears and his wife started to
drive to Pawhuska. When a short
distance from their home Sears was
killed from ambush two shots having
been fired into his body, killing him
instantly. Graham was arrested. The
tragedy occurred on Mission Creek a

HIGH SCHOOL
FRA7ERN|T|ES
SOUGHT TO BE ABOLISHED BY
BILL WHICH PASSED SENATE
NOW UP TO GOVERNOR.

Fraternities in the Oklahoma City
high school were those principally
sought to be abolished by the Joyner-
Peery bill which passed the senate
finally Friday, it was charged by OPP
ponents of the BILL although the eff
feet was to prohibit secret societies
in nigh or graded schools through
out the state. The bill already had
passed the house and goes to the
governor.
That the local institution and Its
student body were greatly interested,
was plainly indicated by the pres
ence in the senate galleries of num-
bers of youths, and along the sides
of the chamber, of members of the
faculty, city board of education, and
prominent citizens who might have
been parents of school boys.
The bitterest fight was wagei
over the adoption of a favorable or
an adverse committee report, and the
former was adopted by vote of
20 to 10. From then on, the progress
of the bill was simple. and Senator
T. Elmer Thomas engineered it
promptly to a final roll call which
resulted "A to IS. Twenty three votes
were required to pass.
1t was charged by Senator McMe-
chan and Senator Burford that the
bill was the outcome of a row be-
tween the students and faculty men,
bers of the Oklahoma City high
school. McMechan declared that
while the faculty was for the BILL it
was opposed by the parents as a
rule.
Men who have neither daughter
nor son are getting up and fighting
this BILL" said Senator Barret of
Shawnee. ITS a good deal like an

some countries it is positively forbid
den by law to teach Latin in the
schools.
In the universities there are usu-
ally courses of lectures on the his
tory of classic literatures, but these
are given in the mother tongue AMI
the students who take them are not
required to be able to read the orig
inal. In the Institute Pedagogical Of
Chile, an elementary course of three
years in Latin is required of those
preparing to teach Spanish and
French. but even here Latin is not
taught for the sake of Latin, but us
a suitable background for the scien .
tlfic study OF Spanish or French
grammar. A similar plan prevails in
the University of Buenos Ayres.
"The disappearance of attn was
not effected without contest" says
Dr. Brandon. "Many educators train
ed under the old system recognized
the value of the subject in any
scheme of education, and fought
valiantly for its retention. Some
states wavered in their policy; un-
der one regime it was abolished; un-
der another restored, only to be cast
out again when its opponents re
turned to power. Argentina fluctu-
ated many years in her policy; UrI-
quay but recently discarded the sub
ject.
Various reasons are assigned for
the abandonment of Latin. The queS-
.tion Of church and state, an IN
portant one in Latin America, is in
Iyolyed to a large extent. In addi-
ltion there Is the motive of utilita-

that Latin is an antique out of place

purpose OF education to be distinctly
practical and useful. According tc
his view the school must be a di'
rect agent in the regeneration OF
the nation; it must advance civili-
zation, develop the natural resources
of the country, and bring it into
touch with the most progressive ol
its neighbors; and in this program
