On the psychology OF having friends.
Dr.. George A. Coe said at the last
meeting OF the American Psychology
cal association that the naive under
standing would assert, first, that what
each friend enjoys is the other friend
not merely goods to me mediated by
him, and. second, that the reason why
a giver is valued above his gift is
that a giver has experiences. We value
objects not only as experienced, but
as having experiences. The sayings.
There is continuity of substance be-
tween minds" and individuals over
lap" do not sufficiently account for
the value attached to having" a
friend. He says. in effect, that psy-
chology is up stump" in its attempt
either to deny or TO translate into 9th
er terms the simple assertion that
one enjoys a second experiencing
through friendship

ROADS TO THE
HEALDTON FIELD
WERE IN GOOD SHAPE BEFORE
RAIN. DRAG MAKES WONDER
Full IMPROVEMENT.

The road from this city to the Head
ton oil fields was in very good con
dition before the recent rain and the
work done by Mr.. Glass with the drag
is very noticeable. Autoists can easily
negotiate the distance between Ard
more and the fields in one and one-half
hour without seriously shaking up the
passengers, which is long way bet
ter than could be done earlier in the
season.
The best work of the Chamber OF
Commerce of this city will be to keep
that road in first class repair. The oil
operators will make this city head
quarters if this is done. If not, they
will go elsewhere from the field and
President Mullen of the Chamber OF
Commerce states that he is not going
to let that be done, if possible.

Monday, David Copperfield, The we'll
known Story by Dickens.

David Copperfield, shortly after the
death of his beloved father, becomes
aware of the attention of one Mr..
Murdstone to his mother His displeas-
ure at such attentions is markedly
evidenced, and as a result he is dis
patched on visit to Aunt Peggoty S
home in Yarmouth. Here he meets hit
tie Emily.
Upon his return to his home, THE
Rookery," he finds his suspicious were
true, and Murdstone has become his
stepfather. Revolving against the tyr
anny and cruel treatment accorded
him at the hands OF his stepfather,
David is sent to school at Salem
House. While there, he is advised of
the death of his dear mother. After
his mothers death, David is appren-
ticed to work in the Murdstone brew
cry, and there becomes lodger at
the home of Mr.. Micawber. The Mi
cawbers are evicted from their hum
BILE dwelling, and David resolves to
run away from his brewery appren'
ticeship and seek the home of his
aunt, Betsy Trotwod, at Dover. Murd
stone, learning of his disappearance
and whereabouts, demands David 5
return. This is denied, however, and
David is sent to Canterbury to con
tinue his education.
Before he has completed his course
| however, David is compelled to seek
means of earning his own livelihood
and in consequence is apprenticed in
the law office of Mr., Spenlow. There
he meets Dora Spenlow, who becomes
his wife, only to die ere his happiness
has been begun.
| While in the employ of Spenlow
David meets the villainous Uriah Heel
and subsequently he arranges with his
old friend Mr. Micawber, that Micaw
ber is to become an employee of Mr.
Spenlow. Then follows the detection
by Micawber of the thefts of Urial
Heep and comes the restoration oi
Aunt Betsy's belongings. David ther
chances to meet his old friend, James
Steerforth, and together they plan q
trip to Yarmouth, where they visi

X. G. L. of Security.

The meeting held last Monday
night by the Knights and Ladies OF
Security was decidedly the best at
tended and most enthusiastic session
held by this local order since it was
organized. At an early hour the hall
was packed with regular members,
and soon there was only standing
room for the candidates in the ante
room. Several of the officers of the
counci, had memorized their charges
from the ritual, and some extra prac-
tice had put the drill team in splendid
shape for comforting the long form

THE NEWSPAPER.

A New York editor, in "a recent
speech expresses regret that news
paper editors and reporters so often
lend their aid to the circulation OF
stories that are false. He takes this
as a weakness of the newspaper pro-
fession. From our viewpoint, the eu-
itor and the reporter are to be con
graduated that newspapers are as
clear of errors as they are. If the
laity understood how many efforts
are made to color press reports, they
would appreciate the slight extent to
which they are really colored. Ebert
Hubbard in his lecture here, said that
the people get what they want ana
that is true of the press. The news
paper that would get right down to
hard facts and stay within their limits
would have so many enemies that II
would be run out of business. In 9th
or words. if the editor were to come
out in plain terms and express truth
about every proposition that was
sprung in his town he would be call
ed knocker and would finally lose
out in the race for business. The
laity will get the clean paper just'as
quic,dy as it demands it, and not soon
er The sensational paper will go
when the people lose their taste for
sensation, but that time is not here
and will not come during a lifetime
The average newspaper is to be con
graduated upon its policy of truthfuI'
ness. and newspaper readers ought
to be more rigid in their demands
for the truth. When the paper reach.
cs a point where money can be in.
yestei upon its statements, then il
will have reached point where its
columns will have the respect to
which they are entitled.

JUDGE sTiLLWELL Il. RUSSELL.

A vacancy exists in the supreme

was touched by word of affection
or of Commendation, and he was
equally as sensitive of criticism. He
labored earnestly and put all of his
intense feeling into his work and the
surroundings became too intense for
a man of his years. His family will
find solace in the fact that his life's
ambition had been realized, that he
was loved by the people of two states
and that he rendered a service that
few men can render.
One OF the prettiest traits of his en-
tire life was his love for children.
They responded to his affection, and
when he was at his home he was most
happily surrounded when in the pres
cncc of innocent, playful childhood.
He had buried a grand baby in Rose
Hill cemetery about whom his ten
drills of love were bound so tightly
that he could never forget and could
never cease to love its memory. He
had learned the law, he had gathered
vast storehouse Of knowledge from
literature and from travel but he
never knew how to forget to love the
little one and its death caused him
a thousand times more anguish than

ARE YOU A WOMAN?

If you are a woman, there is just
one Office you can be a candidate for
in this county, and that office is coun-
ty Superintendent. Some of the coun-
ties o. the state have women treas
urers and women registers of deeds,
but the state election board has noti-
fled JCkn II. Carlock, secretary OF
the county election board, not to ac-
cept any filing from woman, except
for superintendent. If the woman
wants to file she will have to bring
mandan.us proceedings and the case
could not be decided in court in time
to get her filing and have her name
placed on the ticket. There is test
suit now in the supreme court which
will decide the rights of women in
Oklahoma to hold office and until that
decision is handed down, it will not be
known lust what offices they can or
cannot hold.
Looks like Justice would give wom-
en- at least fair play. They ought TO
be given a chance to run for office,
whether they can be elected or not
and in most instances the woman Is
successful in politics. Public money
paid to the woman for services does
not find its way into the channels
of trade that build up illegal busl
ness end that cannot always be said

man who holds public office.

House Moved Over Street Car.

A large private house in San Fran.
cisco was recently moved along mar
dow street to a new site in the ad-
joining block without blockading
street car or vehicle traffic. A single,
track cable-car line runs along the
center OF the street, and the width
OF the house was too great to permit
it to be moved longitudinally along
either side OF the street at ground
level without obstructlng the car
track. The street railway company
objected to any interference with its
service. so the contractor resorted to
the expedient OF jacking the structure
to a sufficient height to permit cars
