REV. GEO. LEWIS
MAKES STATEMENT
PARENTS LOSE CONTROL OF
GIRLS WHO COME AND GO AT
WILL TO THEIR MORAL HURT.

That girls only fifteen and sixteen
years of age are spending their even
ings until midnight away from home
and in some instances are indulgins
in intoxicating drinks, is the assertion
of Rev. George w. Lewis, pastor OF
Carter Avenue Methodist church, and
he will preach a sermon tonight in
which he will state to his hearers the
observations he has made and what
lie has learned Some of the mothers
OF the city he says have lost control
of their girls and they go and come
at will and do as they please to their
own great moral harm and to the
humiliation of their parents.
Rev. Lewis in company with a
member of his church has visited
some of the places Of vice of this
city and his sermon is not to be
based upon what he has heard others
say, but what he has learned from
his own observations and from COM
ing in contact with and interrogating
some of these girls.

HOW THE LID WAS PUT ON.
Ministers Will Preach at II O'clock
Today on the Vices Of the City.

Four ministers of the city win have
a common text for the IL O'Clock
service today. They have an an
nouncement in this mornings paper
in which they state they will tell
"how" the lid was put on Friday
night. The pastors would make no
statement for the press. One OF them
stated that if the ministers would tell
their congregations what they knew
and could prove in the courts, that
their congregations would not believe
it. They would make no statement
but invited inquirers to come out to
church and hear what they had to say.
Sheriff Garrett put the lid on at II
o'clock Friday might. The sheriff sta
ted that he closed the places be-
caused they were being operated in
violation of the law, that he was not
in any way going to interfere with
the city's business, that no one in
duced him to put on the lid, no one
but he knew that the places would be
closed at that hour and that they
were closed to stay that way.
The prospects are that more peo-
pie will attend church today in Ard
more than have been on any one
Sunday for many months. Rev. Lewis
will preach on how the lid was put on
in the morning and will follow that
sermon at night on immortality among
girls of tender years, and ii is safe
to say that Carter Avenue church
Will be packed at both sermons.

SAYS SOLDIERS ARE LAWLESS.
A Texas Merchant Says U. S. Troops
Are Bad AS Mexicans

Washington, ID. c., June 21.--
Charges that American soldiers on
the Mexican border are as lawless as
the rowing bands across the line, were
to be laid before Secretary of War
Garrison today by J. ]. fitzpatrick a
merchant of Candelaria, Texas.
Mr.. Fitzpatrick was prepared to as
sert that the American soldiers are
unruly and that they fail to afford
protection to Americans.
Candelaria is a border town of
about 500 inhabitants, virtually all
of whom are MeXicans. Mr.. Kill
patrick and members of his family
are said to be the only Americans in
the place.
Candelaria, Texas, is in the Big
Bend section in Preside county in
West Texas. 1t is on the Rio Grande,

Reames and his wife had not lived
together for nearly year, and Mrs.
Reames was suing him for divorce.
1t is said that Reames had heard
that his wife and Higgins would at
tend church together Thursday night,
and wrote to both warning them that
trouble would follow. Mrs. Reames
and Higgins attended the church,
however, and during services sat
across the aisle from Reames. Shortly
before the services ended Reames
went to them and delivered the last
warning to Mrs. Reames.
Following the shooting, Reames
went to Chandler and surrendered to
the authorities. and is lodged in jail.

John R|NC[|NG
HERE TODAY
WILL ARRIVE IN HIS PRIVATE
CAR OVER THE FRISCO-ENGI-
NEERS ARE HERE.

G. Nv. Reeder, one of the engineers
on the Ringing road, left here yes
terday for a short visit with his
family in Guthrie He is expected to
return here this afternoon to meet
Mr.. John Ringing, who will arrive
here tonight at $50 in his private
car over the Frisco road The pres
ence of Mr.. Hamon is also expected
in the city either Sunday or Monday.
Mr.. Ringing it is thought will re-
main here several days and there is
a probability that arrangements will
be made while he is here to let the
contract for building the line. The
other engineer in the city, Mr.. Hem
street, said he would devote his time
to the work of making estimates un-
til the arrival of the builders of the
road and it is the opinion of those
who have kept in close touch with
the road that the engineers have
their estimates about ready for bids
on construction work to be received.
The coming of Mr.. Ringing at this
time will revive interest in the build
ing of the proposed road from here
to Waurika. The people of this city
and all along the line are anxious to
see construction work begin and it is
believed that active work will be be-
gun within a few weeks.

Blazing the Trail to Dewey.

Dewey, Okla, June 21-The Trail Of
the Lonesome Pine was hit the
instant it was put to music, but
Blazing the Trail to Dewey has caused
more merriment here within the past
few days, among folks, than even
Deweys municipality owned Merry
go-round has brought to the city's sons
and daughters w, A. (Willie) Let
son, cashier of the First National
Bank here, originated the idea of
blazing an auto road into Dewey from
all points for the Sixth Annual
Roundup, July 8, and 5. And so
the bunch sent little Willie out in
his big seven-passenger car with a
can of white paint, long handled
brush, a timer, carpenter and a
porter and a man of odd jobs-mak
ing quite merry party-to inaugu
rate the work and give the painter a
few points on mixing all colors just
so they will come out white after a
shower.
The party headed for Joplin to
blaze the first trail Many auto par
ties come here annually for the Round
up from Joplin, Webb City, Carthage
and intermediate points and Willie
wanted his paint to dry before the
glorious Fourth.
This story ought to be written in
chapters and stars put in a la Elean-
or Glynn to denote the unprintablc.
For somewhere, the stars are shining;
somewhere hearts are glad; at home
the bunch is pining-everybody's feel
ing sad. It's about eight miles tOI
Copan. but, somehow, the crowd got
lost-and Willie and his can of paint
proved a killing frost.
Thirty-six hours after the party set
out it reached Dewey. Willie swears
his auto has a short leg on the left
side, for he set the wheel for Joplin
and lashed 'er tight when they hit
the broad prairie. 1t was a large
night in the open. This week a
large force of employees of the Round |
up association is out erasing the
pretty white marks from that circular
pasture But the trail will beb lazed. .
Under Mr.. Letson's direction autos
will be started in few days 10
whiten up the fence posts in all di-
rections. At the forks of roadways
and in doubtful places a big white
hand, hearing the one word Dewey
will be set to point the way to where
once again the chauffeur can pick up
the line of white rings on the posts
the blazed trail to Dewey will be a /
to The Roundup, July Q,
and 5.

Test Of SobrIety

Many shibboleths have been devised
for testing sobriety. George Meredith
who doubtless could have evolved
some wonderful examples, had he
chosen, calls them "oinometers, or
methods of determining the condition
OF man, according to the degrees OF
wine or beer in him" One of the
most snareful of these is the sentence.

The good roads meeting of
the Commercial Club last even
ing was very we'll attended and
a great deal of enthusiasm dis
played. The meeting was cal
led to order by Pres. Heath,
who introduced |. j. Kirker who
is the organizer for the Nation.
al Highway association. Mr..
Kirker explained what the
National Highway association
is trying to do, that is to get
the government to appropriate
$500, 100000, available $4,000,
600, per annum, for the con-
struction of national highways
throughout the United States.
During the life of the govern
ment there has been appyopri-
ated not to exceed $4,000 for
the highways while the rivers
and harbors and railways of
the country have received mil
lions upon millions. 1t is now
proposed to spend the vast sum
on the highways of the country
where it will do good to the
greatest number. As outlined
the roads will cover every con-
gressional district in the U. S.
and will touch every town and
city of over 10000 population.
The proposed highways are %
feet IN width and constructed
of concrete so that once they
are in place they are practically
ever lasting. Iowa is down for
three highways east and west
and also three north and south.
1t is proposed to get this money
by putting tax on tobacco, as
was done in 1897 during the
Spanish war, and in this way
it would bring in a revenue of
about fifty SIX millions a year.
1t is also proposed to present
this bill to congress at the next
session so that all of the tools
and machinery now at work on
the Panama Canal could be
used on the roads of the coun-
try. A local organization was
perfected with the following
officers, R. D. McEvoy, presi-
dent, j 3. Jones. vice president
and H. M. Silsby, Secretary.
R. D. McEvoy was also ap-
pointed a delegate to Logan
this week to see about sending
a delegate to the National Good
Roads congress in session in
Detroit next month.
