Excitement in Oil City.
(Contributed)

The latest exCitiment at Oil City
was a rousing charivari for Mr.. Ernest
Rowe, the popular oil man of that
city, who was recently married to Miss
BERTHE McCoy, one OF Ardmores most
charming young ladies. In spite OF
rain and mud, the boys, armed with
plenty of dynamite, tin pans, discs
and other paraphernalia, hiked
through the mud and rain to the res
idence of Mr.. and Mrs. Pete King.
where the bride and groom reside.
Moderate persuasion failing to bring
the newly made benedict out, more
strenuous measures were taken and
it became necessary to place dyna-
mite in rather close proximity to the
building to bring forth the disting-
uished young man. After he put in
an appearance, he wds requested TO
wade the mud and water to the City
Drug Store to treat, which he did
very liberaI1Y.
The boys are now requested to re-
place shattered glass, fill in cavities
and scrub the mud from the porch
and sides OF the house.

NAMES MENTIONED.

ID The personnel Of the new capitol
building commission, soon to be chos-
en-, is consuming considerable time
and attention of members of both
branches of the legislature, as we'll as
officials and employees of all state
departments. A name which was gen.
orally discussed Tuesday, always with
expressions Of favor, was that of DR..
John w Duke of Guthrie. Another
name mentioned quite often is X. T..
Bowles of Durant, who opposed Col.
Jack Love for the democratic nomi-
nation for corporation commissioner
last August.
Of the republicans who are being
discussed, more emphasis seems TO
have been placed on l.. S. Weismeye'.
a prominent business man of Fair
fax, Usage county. Weismeyer is one
of the oldest residents of old Indian
Territory, having settled at Grey
Horse, where he later served as In
dian trader, more than forty years
ago. AS he built the first house on
the site of his home town, he is ia
millarly known as the Daddy Of
Fairfax"
Friends of all whose names are
mentioned are said to have secured
their consent to urge them for posi-
tions on the commission. In the case
of the democrats named, DR.. Duke
and Mr.. Bowles, activity in their be-
half was very pronounced all day
Tuesday. lBackers of E. B. Howard
of Tulsa we're equally as enthusiastic,
as were also the friends of Tom C..
Harrill of Wagner.

School of Expression to open.

1t is definitely announced that, for
the benefit of those whose school
studies have interfered with their TAX
ing regular expression work, Prof.
Carl M. Johns will offer a two
months summer course in interpre-
tive reading.
The work will be chiefly for High
school pupils and the "grown-ups"
and will endeavor to cover the prin-
ciples of interpretive psychology en-
countered in the reading of English
selections, both prose and poetry.
Three elective courses will be Of
fered, all based on a fundamental
three weeks course in interpretive
analysis and scientific tone produc-
tion.
The first course will include the
reading and study in classes of five,
of selections from the leading Amer
lean authors; the second course, Eng
lish authors from Marlow to Kipling
the third, a study of the major in
terpretive masterpieces from the time
of the Persian poets, Khayyam and
TIafiz to and including Maeterlinck
and Rostand.
The course will be as thorough as
the time will permit, and presupposes
a definite student aim.
Classes will meet twice each week
in eighty minute sessions, and as the
classes will each be limited to five
members, this will give ample time
for thorough individual and class
work. Prof. Johns will also carry
on his regular work in expression
for the benefit OF those of his stu
dents who care to avail themselves
of the summer months. Glasses Will
be held at his summer studio, 207
