Abas the Street Corner Aeitator.

The people have been tolerant of
the street corner agitator and soap
box orator in the past The one who
constantly delivered his, or her, har-
angue, to a crowd o. idle or curious
listeners, while they proceeded to
prescribe for all the ills that the
body polite is heir to, and under
normal conditions, perhaps it might
cause no harm to let them have
their little say and vanish. At pres
ent, the agitator and soap-bOX ora
tor has no place in society, and the
first one that makes his appearance
should be introduced to a rock pile
under a ten-day sentence, and made
to realize what a days work Is.
Ardmore is not free of this class.
Most any afternoon along the shady
side of Main street one may hear
a very learned CD nnkempt speci-
men of the genus homo eXpatiating
upon the European situation, "cuss-
ing" the Germans and Russians, be-
rating the French and Belgians, and
giving the English and all the rest
of the world, merry h, while he,
the great | am, tells how it is all
going to end, and what the states
men of Europe should do in order
to bring order cut of chaos.
Usually this fellow carries a ere
Dental of crimson hue, which admits
him into the select circle of states
men who berate President Wilson
and the constitution, and praise the
works of Karl Marx. Chief of Po-
lice Booker might perform a great
work for society and compel respect
for President Wilson's earnest ad.
monition for neutrality by introduc.
ing this class to a bath, and berth
on the city street gang.
