More than year ago, Sam Hersko-
witz. a child of IA, arrived in Chicka-
sha from New York, having been sent
from that city to Oklahoma by some
correction or charity institution, to
grow up with the country" In com
pany with some other boys he was her
aided before Judge N. M. Williams o.
the Juvenile court on charge of steal
ing money from the mother of one Of
the other lads.
Judge Williams was or the point OF
sending him to Pauls Valley when
Frank Hulen, a farmer Of Middleberg,
interceded, and asked that the boy be
given into his charge. This agreement
was made, since which time the lad

O. c. w. Dresses Over 200
Dolls for Christmas Ship
Every Student and Member Of the
Faculty is Busy with Needle
and Thread

President Austin OF the Oklahoma
College for Women, admits that he
isn't graduate of the domestic art
department of any school and Prof.
Richter while confessing to having
trained his fingers to manipulate the
ivory, is by no means an adept in the
use of needle and thread, but just the
same these two gentlemen are under
contract to dress doll apiece and to
finish the job by Friday morning
However that is only small part
OF the story. The entire faculty and
student body of the O. G. w. have un-
der taken similar tasks and during the
next few days doll dressing will be all
the rage at the college.
The cause Of all this excitement is
the Christmas ship which is to be sent
to the children OF the war stricken
countries Miss O'Neill. a member OF
the college faculty, is one Of the com
mittee having charge of the collection
of contributions for the Santa Claus
ship. and everybody at the college has
agreed to dress one doll and have It
ready by Friday morning. AS result
more than two hundred little children
In Europe will receive dolls from the
o. G. w.
But the college folks are not going
to have monopoly OF the fun. Mrs.
Ben Johnson, another member of the
Christmas ship committee, is arrang
ing TO place contribution boxes In
every store in town where anybody
who desires to do SO may deposit
donation. The indications are that
Chickasha will contribute her full
share to the Santa Claus fund.

GETTING NEAR GLIMPSE
AT PREMIER PITCHER

Probably the most surprising feature
of Walter Johnson is his extreme
youthful appearance, which is warrant
ed when learns that he is but 26 years
OF age. Countless half tones have ap-
peared in practically every newspaper
in the country showing the mighty
twirler in action, yet they do not de-
pict the real johnson. They show a
stern visage, the owner of which is evil
IDENTIFY bent upon the destruction Of
every batter who faces him and sug-
gestive of full realization of the fame
that is his, also being unapproach-
able.
The real Walter Johnson is a quiet,
pleasant young gentleman, entirely
void of that high and mighty stuff TO
which he might so justly lay claim.

as much interested in winning the
game as if he had been recruit en-
deavoring to make good. No grand
standing, no posing, no consciousness
that the fans were there to see him,
Just a baseball machine, just a profes-
sional man attending to the general
business of the day
He talked freely but not too freely,
answered questions readily but did not

approached by several Of the Federal
managers on the subject, there is
nothing definite. No contract has been
