RECEPTION ABANDONED.

The public reception to Gov
erDor Williams, that was To have
been held tonight at Hotel Tulsa,
was called off yesterday, as the
result of an unfortunate circum-
stance. The governor was orig
inally invited to come to Tulsa
Thursday, hut later the commit
tee in charge deemed IL best TO
have him here Friday. His Of
flee was so notified but the mes
sage never reached him. He
came into Tulsa yesterday un-
hcraldcd and il was some time
before his presence i'm the city
was discovered. He was forced
TO return to the capital last night
at II O'Clock, and the reception
for tonight necessarily had to DE
abandoned.
Yesterday was the first time

High Chancellor Says More
Men Must BE Enlisted
Immediately.
NEED TO REINFORCE
LINES IN FLANDERS
British Troops Have With
stood all the Onslaughts
of Germans.

r ONDON, May 13.-(1;3O p. m)
IL Viscount Haldane. lord high
chancellor in the house Of lords, to-
day intimated that the government
was considering the necessity Of de-
parting from the voluntary system OF
military enlistment and resorting to
universal service throughout the
kingdom.
For the present he said the hands
Of the war office was full with the
men they possessed, but it might be
necessary to reconsider the situation
in the light Of the tremendous neces-
sites with which the nation was con-
trOnted.
Need More Men.
This appears TO confirm the idea
prevalent here that while recruiting
has been satisfactory the very heavy
fighting which has been taking place
in Flanders, where the Germans nave
for almost a week been attacking
with the greatest violence the British
line, shows that many more men Will
be required If victory is to be at
tanned.
Thus far the British troops, accord
ing to Field Marshal Sir John French,
have withstood all the German on
slaughts and while at times they have
been compelled 10 give some ground
their counter attacks have brought
them back to the position from winch
they started However this has been
costly business for the German ar
tillury bombardment has been very
severe and counter-attacks are always
followed by heavy casualty lists.
In their attempt Of October ana
November last to reach Calais the
Germans continued their attacks for
six weeks but the allied force was
much weaker then and the Germans
were not in the position Of having TO
meet counter offensive as they have
now to the north of Arras, in the
Woevre and at other points along the
western front.
Arras Battle Important.
OF these the most important is that
which the French are carrying out
from Arras to the point where their
line Joins the British and in which
they continue 10 meet with unvarying
success. They report again today the
capture-whch the Germans admit
Of very stronly fOrtificA positions and
one road at least which the Germans
have been using to bring up rein
forcements to their positions near La
Bassee. Therefore it is believed here
that the French successes will tighten
tho pressure which tho Germans are
bringing to bear on the British around
Ypres.

Sophistication.

Major Riddle of Atlantic City re- sponded at recent dinner to a toast to the summer girl
 There's lot of false synicism de- voted to the summer girl" he said. She is made out to be very worldly and sophisticated, but. as a matter of fact. the average summer girl is as innocent as a little child.
 But most people would have us be- lieve that that was a typical summer girl to whom young man said on the beach in the moonlight:
 You're not the first girl I've kissed by any manner of means, you know
 The summer girls lip curIed.
 "'And at that she answered. you've still got lot to learn.'
