MAlDA'S WOOER

Is We E6NSi@
Mazda stood still andI looked at the
black object upon the beach. At first
she thought it was a seal, washed
ashore after the great storm that had
whipped up the shingle in great ridges
all around the lighthouse rock. Then
she saw that it was a man.
She held her breath in terror. Pres
entity she VentUTed to draw nearer.
It was a young man, with dark hair
and a pale face, the tan of the neck
ending in a V where the open shirt
collar disclosed the white of the skin
heneath.
For a moment Mazda did not know
what to do. Then, moved by COM
passion, she kneIt beside him and
rested his head upon her knees while
she tried to revive him, chatting his
hands and dashing sea water upon his
face.
All the while her heart beat fUri-
oUsly. She had never seen a man be-
fore except some occasional sea cap
tain, gTizled and bowed, who rOwed
out to the lonely lighthouse, and the
man who brought oil and provisions
in his mOtorboat
Maida's mother had kept the light
house ever since Mazda was born.
She had lived there alone, tending the
light ceaselessly, worn and shriV-
eIed, hard-featured, taciturn old
woman, who seldom spoke.
She had bought books and taught
her daughter to read and write. Often
Mazda had spoken of her desire to
see the world outside; but the very
suggestion aroused the mothers
fury to such a degree that Mazda had
come at last to acquiesce in her lot
as inevitable.
The sea captains, though they
looked at her pityingly, had been
afraid of the grim old woman whose
loneliness had turned her brain. They
spoke to Mazda hurriedly, and always

BUILDING BETWEEN
HERE AND SPRINGS


The impetus with which Sand
Springs is building is having It's eff
feet on the seven mile strip Of rich
lands between there and the city Of
Tulsa. In the past two years these
lands have been about doubled i'm
price and with the rush with which
both Tulsa and Sand Springs arc
pounding away in the building line
rural residences between those places
are being eagerly sought
Four houses are now In the course
of construction along the line of tho
Sand Springs railway three or four
miles out of TUlsa. Each has a small
tract of land in connection consist
ing Of about ten acres, and will bo
rented at a price less than what the
same dwelling would cost each month
i'm either Tulsa or Sand Springs The
fact that these properties are modern
in most respects and that their ten
ants will have q small tract of ground
which can be used for whatever he
so desires, and the further fact that
he is only fifteen or twenty minutes
from either Tulsa or Sand Springs
makes the semi-Country life alluring
to anyone who wishes to live well
along towards the grass roots Of Ma
turc.

ment case against Richard Block was
continued and paternity proceedings
which arose in Centerville was settled
out of court.
There are l6 jury cases listed but I
OF them are similar cases against the

court, many Of them being not con
cases, among them being the Rozlnsky
and Jens cases arising out OF scandal
that resulted in prison sentences about
two years ago.
There were only l3 applications for

on rehearing reversed itself and

LETTER FROM BRYAN

Ny Dear Mr.. Bryan:
| accept your resignation only be-
cause you insist upon its acceptance
and | accept it with much more than
deep regret, with feeling of personal
sorrow.
Our two years of close association

judgments have accorded in practically
every matter Of official duty and of pub
Tic policy until now; your support of
the work and purposes of the admins.
tration has been generous and loyal
beyond praise: your devotion to the
duties of your great Office and your
eagerness to take advantage of every
great opportunity for service it offered
has been an example to the rest of us;
you have earned our atfectionate ad-
miration and friendship.
Even now we are not separated in
the object we seek, but only in the
method by which we seek it.
1t is for these reasons my feeling
about your retirement from the secre-
taryship of state goes so much deeper
than regret. | sincerely deplore it.
Our objects are the same and we
ought TO pursue them together. yield
to your desire only because must and
wish to bid you God speed in the part
ing. We shall continue to work for
the same causes even when we do not
work in the same way.
With aifectionate regard,
