But this comforting conclusion
wavered again, when Berkeley Fresno,
who had awaited their report, scoffed
openly.
HE can't run! If he could run he'd
be running. tell you, he cant run
as fast as sheep can walk"
"Senor, you see those beautiful
medal he have?" expostulated Carara.
"Sure," agreed Willie. Ills brisket
was covered with 'em. He had one
that hung down like dewlap."
"Phony!"

the stoop-shouldered man.
did you see his legs?" Fresno was
bent upon convincing his hearers.
Couldn't help but see 'em in that
runnin' suit"
Mice and soft and white. weren't
they?"
''They didn't look like dark meat, I"
Slower agreed, reluctantly But you
can't 60 nothin' on the looks of q fell

If you snapped him on the chest with q
rubber band he'd cough himself to
death"
"Mebbe he amt in good shape yet"
Fresno Eneered. "No, and he'll new

girls hanging around him all the time.
Don't you know that the worst thing
in the world for an athlete IL to talk

That's the worst thing in the world
for anybody" said Willie. with cyni-
cism. "But how can we stop it,"
Make him eat, as well as sleep in
his training quarters; don't let him
spend any time whatever in female
company. Keep your eyes on him
night and day."
Willie spoke his mind, deliberately.
I'm in favor of that. II this is an
other Humpy Joe affair I'm a-goin' to
put one more notch in my gun-handle,
and it looks like cub bear had
chawed 1t already"
There amt but one thing to do
Slower announced. firmly. We've got
to put it up to Mr.. Glass and learn the
truth"
You'll find him in the bunk-house,"
directed Fresno. II think I'll trail
along and hear what he has to say"

WOULD ABOLISH The
HIGHWAY Commissioner
ROGERS COUNTY REPRESENTA-
TIVE WANTS MORE POIIT-
ICAL JOBS.

Special 10 The World
CLAREMORE, OKLA, Dec. IA
Representatives elect A. +. Ball of
Rogers county has framed a bill to
be introduced in the lower house of
the state legislature at the next ses-
sion which, II enacted, will abolish the
office of state highway commits
soner-the office now held by Sidney
Suggs.
Instead of maintaining the office Of
state highway commissioner, the pro-
visions of Mr.. Balls bill would create
the office Of county highway commits
sioner In each OF the II Oklahoma
counties and defray the expenses OF
such office with the money collected
as taxes on automobiles, etc, and thus
keep the money derived from this
source in the county In which II Is col
lected, instead OF, as It now Is, going
to the state for the maintenance OF
the office of state highway commits
sioner.
Mr.. Balls bill will give tho county
clerk In each county the authority 10
collect license fees and issue licenses
for automobiles. the same as he now
issues licenses to hunters
As per the bill to be introduced, the
new office would be an appolntiVe
one and the governor of the state
would be given the authority to either
appoint each county highway commits
sioner or appoint a state board whose
duties would be the appointment Of
such commissioners, and thus remove
the appointment to a great extent
from local influences. The bill would
further compel each applicant for the
office to stand rigid examination to
determine as to whether or not he
would be qualified to fill the require
ments OF the office In the event that
he were appointed.

THE ETHICS OF
HUNTING

October means to many men the
call of wild life. The start for the
woods. with old friend rife over their
shoulder. the companion OF hun.
dred camping trips, is like the re-
lease of the boy from school.
Humanitarian people say the hunt
err Is cruel. Do any OF our nimrods
feel bit uneasy of conscience as
they set out on the old familiar trail?
The sportsman has standards to-
day which his father never conceiv-
ed. Years ago 1t was customary for
whole towns to choose up for Compel
tive side hunts. Hunters " known
prowess would organize competing
teams. For week the outlying coun-
try would echo and re-echo with the
bang of rifles and shotguns. Finally
there was a glorious feast from flesh
Of bird and beast.
Sporting sentiment would hardly
permit such wholesale butchery to-
day. 1t is concerned with the preser.
walton OF every species Of wild life,
ready to abstain from shooting any
beneficial variety which seems to be
growing less.
Extreme humanitarians attack even
the shooting of harmful beasts and
birds. Yet life In the wilder sec
tions OF the country Is still a conflict
between the farmer and his useful
domesticated flocks on one side and
the providers Of the forest on the 9th,
err. Every bear killed means securer
life for the little woolly lamb. When
you come down to suffering, which
gets the worst Of 1t, the rabbit whose
life Is abruptly ended by your shot

One Way to End War

One of the most noted preachers
Of this country man really Of inter-
national repute, said in recent ut
terance from his pulpit in regard to
the strife raging in Europe.
81 for one believed that the people
would not permit kings and chancel-
lors to set millions Of men tearing at
each others throat. ! thought they
would refuse to fight. believed that
rather than murder and be murdered
at the bidding of king or capitalist.
they would shoot their officers. then
throw down their arms, embrace on
the field of battle and declare that
the nations should learn war no
more"
That would be one way to end
war, wouldn't 1t? And the surest
way. With that sentiment universal.
ly prevailing wars would cease and
even the stupendous readiness for
war. which is such a burden on the
people of Europe, would be thing
Of the past. For next to the horrors
and destructiveness OF war itself Is
the heavy burden this necessity to be

the young men of a nation to train.
ing, the heavy taxes imposed for the
maintenance OF an army. a navy, and
all manner OF defenses.
And all this would be peacefully
wiped out If man would come to re-
gard man as brother all over the
world.
And having before us this awful IL.
lustration OF what modern warfare
means, ought we not one and all, to
take 1t upon us as serious duty to
help promote this feeling of brother
hood? Ought We not in every way

WAR, HISTORY AND
THE SCHOOLS

Superintendent Young is quite right
in rejecting the demand of certain pa
ciflsts that no reference shall be
made to war in the teaching of his
tory in the public schools. 1t cannot
be done and teach history at all. AS
Mrs. Young says:
1--WE can't teach the advance OF the
human race and leave out war. 1t
has had two great part in the pro.
gress of the world for that. Many
nations have been able to assert
their rights in no other way"
Especially does 1t not lie in the
mouths of Americans to assert that
war, though always regrettable, is
always wrong" Without war we
might be here, as individuals, but we
would not be Americans, nor would
this nation exist, as such and be the
powerful influence for peace that it
is.
What is especially needed in all
civilized nations teaching the war
phases of history is clearer distinc.
ton about motives and causes of
wars. More of this, and less OF the
glory" aspect, would be desirable.
However obedient We may be to
the laws, there are times when we
cannot as individuals, avoid taking
measures of self defense, which are
war" measures. or appeals to phys.
ical force. Neither can nations, how
ever DESTROYS of peace, always avoid
war.
What We really need to do is to
eliminate the conception that war Is
a legitimate method of national ad-
vancement-a proper instrument OF
political action. That Is a medieval
falsehood which still dominates the
ruling classes of some countries.
Our own people are not altogether
free from this delusion. If they were

STRATEGIC
RAILWAYS

Strategic railways seem to rank
with ornaments as a cause of inter.
national suspicion. It has been said
that Germany was less alarmed by
the increase of the Russian army
than by the plans for new railways
which would permit a more rapid
concentration Of troops and war ma
terial. On the other hand 1t is urg-
ed that generalization in the attack
upon Belgium Is shown by the con.
struction of strategic railways along
the Belgian border. This is denied
by the Stats Zeitung of New York,
which says that the railways in that
region are no more than are needed
Tor the great and growing commerce
between Belgium and Germany. OBJ.
viously the denser the population and
the greater the traffic, the less Is the
need for purely strategic railways,
or to invert the statement. the great
or Is the possibility Of making STRAIT.
egic railways pay. This whole reg.
lon has great possibilities for rail-
road development, being an outlet for
the commerce OF much of Germany
as well as OF Belgium; the suspicious
which have for years past been arous.
ed or designed for the use Of an ar
building OF railways as to the con.
struction OF sidings and elaborate
platforms at places where no COM
merclal need appeared, but where
they would be very useful for the
handling OF munitions OF war.
