A MAN WANTED

The per capita wealth Of Ardmore
is increasing faster now than in any
other city of the state. Bank de-
posts are growing, and individual ac'
counts of citizens are growing. The
friend of the farm ought lot to over
look this opportunity to begin move
ment that will uplift agriculture in
the county. The greed OF many land
owners who have sought to control
great acreages, the poverty OF the
tenant farmer, and three or four
years OF short crops has resulted In
n feeling between landlord end tenant
that could easily be wired out by
proper cooperation with TIC farmers.
The intense sense of poverty that
hangs like pail over the rural dis
tricts can be gotten out of the way.
Hope can be enthroned, and with II
will come greater activity, more
industry, more sensible economy, and
the final result will be complete
change in the rural districts of the
county, as well as in the towns.
After all is said, every town in
Carter county depends upon the pro
ducts produced by the soil surround
ing the town. This is true of every
city and town in Oklahoma.
A farm association that will send
expert men and women to the farm
homes will accomplish som, good, but
when such cooperation IS coupled
with a more substantial help it will
quickly revoutionize farming A
farm association that will put few
live stock in all parts OF the county,
will do a work that is lady needed
here. No citizen of Carter county
can render his people greater ser
vice than to get in behind such an as
sociation, and push it to success.
Dr. Martin, who IS engaged in farm
ing near Lone Grove, is authority for
the statement that Carter county is
losing million dollars year be
cause it does not have sheep to eat
the weeds and feed upon the bushes
that now create no wealth Of any kind.
Another extra million OF wealth can
be created out of hogs. another out Of
poultry, another out of dairy products
and still another out of rrcper tillage
of the soil We are suffering from
this vast waste for lack Of one man
a man who can sacrifice bis time to
work and become a leader OF the
people.

POSTCARD RECORD
Curious Baffed by Invisible Carrier
of Conversation - Dakota
Mans Invention.

Mitchell, June 9.-Small town
postmasters and curious mail carriers
have been baffed at last. by an in
vention designed and patented by
Shirley f. Stout, a Mitchell photogra-
pher. By means of a prepared wax
Mr.. Stout has invented a ~phonagraph-
ic disc postcard which can be used
in the manner of the usual record. il
being possible to record a converse
ton of about one and one-half min
utes.
The sender of the postcard can re
cord the message on the disk with a
horn of simple design and the re-
.ceiver can get the message with the
ordinary machine, which will trans
late the message from the vibratory
marks in the wax. The postcard can
be manufactured for a nominal sum
and can be sent through the mail
without being enclosed in an en-
velope. The inventor has been work
ing on the scheme for the past two
years.

CLOSING DAY
COMMENCEMENT EXERCISES OF
THE STATE NORMAL SCHOOL
FOR 1918.

The thirty-first annual commence
ment exercises of the Madison State
Normal school was held at the audi
forum this forenoon when a class
of seventy-nine was graduated. There
was a large attendance of parents of
students and friends of the school at
the exercises. The commencement
address was delivered by DR.. E. A.
Winship of Boston, and the formal
program incidental to graduating ex-
ercises was carried out according to
previous published announcement.
Diplomas were presented to the class
by Regent J. w. Campbell, and the
exercises closed by singing America
by the class and audience.
During the afternoon the alumni
reception was held at East Hall.
Many students departed for their
homes by the trains north and west
this afternoon and quiet will reign at
the State Normal buildings until the
opening of the summer school, June
IA.
The presentation of the senior
class play, In the Vanguard, at the
auditorium last evening attracted an
immense audience. The play is of
deep significance, unlike the average
class play, and its presentation show
ed to advantage the excellent train
ing of Alice Lorraine DAILY of the de-
partment of expression. If any MEM
Der of the audience expected any
thing amateurish in the play they
were happily disappointed as each
member of the class taking part ham
died his part in a manner profession
al. The great peace play was well
presented, with credit to the class,
their instructor and the author OF the
play.
The Madison State Normal closes
an unusually successful year and
with the proposed additional build
ing to be erected and additional
equipment there is a bright prospect
not only for next year, but succeed
ing years.

STATE BANKS HIT
LIMIT ON DEPOSITS FROM MA.
TIONAL CONCERNS CAUSES
TROUBLE.

Pierre, June "A decided differ
ence between the state and the ma
tional banking departments may oc-
cur as a result of a recent order of
the controller Of the currency, which
limits national bank deposits with
state banks at 10 per cent of their
capital and surplus. This is declared
to place the limit at a point where
the national banks cannot carry
enough i'm the state banks at the
clearing centers to meet their ex-
change, which occurs in daily BUSH
ness transactions, and in effect means
a withdrawal of exchange business
between the two classes of banks. On
account of this alleged discrimination
the state banking department pro-
poses a like order, limiting the
amount which a state bank can de-
posit with a national bank to 10 per
cent of their capital and surplus.
which would in effect mean the with
drawal of state bank deposits from
the national banks, and leave so
small a sum open as to be negligible
in banking business. The national
order is stated to have caused heavy
Withdrawals of national bank de-
posits from state banks and reduced

WAR SUMMARY
PROGRESS OF CONDITIONS AS
COMPILED BY THE ASSO-
GATED PRESS.

New York, June Especial: A
Zeppelin dirigible, manned by a
crew of twenty-eight, and thought to
be returning from a raid on the east
coast of England, has been blown up
in Belgian territory. The feat was
accomplished with a monoplane
driven by a youthful Canadian await
Or. A. j. Warneford-who has
been on the probationary list as a
sub-lieutenant in the royal navy.
Sighting the Zeppelin from affair
Warneford took to the air, and climb
ing 5000 feet, dropped six incendiary
and explosive bombs with such pre-
cision that the dirigible was soon
atlame. IL fell crashing into an or
phange near Client, its entire crew
perishing, as well as several of the
inmates of the orphanage.
This is the incident which stands
out in the world war comprising
many battlefelds, where millions of
men are fighting with desperation, as
seemingly making infinitismal prog
ress toward a decisive ending.
Violent engagements are in prog
ress in the western zone around Ar
ras, Melville st. WAIST, to the north
of the Aisne and on several other sec
tors, with gains of positions and
trenches by the allied forces, accord
ing to the announcement of the
French war office. while in the east
ern theater the Teutons still are driv-
ing the Russians before them, notably
in Galicia.
Unofficial adyices from Berlin are
to the effect that in northwestern
Russia the Russians offensive has
shifted to a weak defensive, and that
the Germans are making Roadway
day by day, which is only o%vershad-
owed by their Galician gains.
To the north of the Aisne, 1000
Germans have been killed in an en-
deavor to take from the French two
lines of trenches which were captured
Sunday. In addition ESQ prisoners
and six machine guns were taken,
while many other machine guns were
found under the ruins.
Heavy casualties were suffered by
the Germans, according TO Paris,
southeast of Hebuterne. Progress
also is reported for the allies between
scissors and Reims and in Cham
payne. The French report mentions
the use by their troops of a flaming
liquid, which was sprayed on the
German trenches, by way of re-
prisal."
Since June /, in the vicinity of
Przemysl, the Austrians claim that in
their advances they have captured
more than 3 $1,000 Russian prisoners.
The Italians, according to Vienna,
seem to be pushing forward with
strong forces against the Aisonzo
river. In the southern theater the
Austrians declare their troops have
been successful in several minor en-
gagements.
The British in Africa have driven
out with heavy casualties the Ger
mans from Sphynxhaven. on Lake
Nyassa, and sunk in the lake the
German armed merchantmen Her
mann Won Wissmann.

ministers, at a meeting at Nice, have

Some of the larger state banks say
if the present order of the national
banking department stands, that they
will be compelled to take out national
charters to continue to do business
on present day business lines, and
complain that the national order is
not only discriminatory, but is a
hamper on the transaction of bank
ing business all over the country.
If such order is issued by the state
banking department it will probably
