THE JOY OF SINGING.

There is real joy in singing, ard 1t
is about the best panacea yet discov-
cred. If you can break away from
your troubles and worries. real or
imagined, long enough to get song
started, you will soon be without
troubles and worries. And If yo1
have somehow put away the habit of
singing as something for which you
have not time or something that is
for trained voices, the best thing for
you to do is to tack again and swing
back into the cid course.
Just now is a good time to do it,
too, for the choral club has just
started. The demands of this club
do not call for trained singers or
even for first rate unframed voices.
"If you can carry a tune we want
you," the leaders say. So if you can
carry a tune, go join the club. 1t will
not be expensive; it will take but
one night week out of your time, a
night well spent; you will become ac-
quainted with many very pleasant
people; you will learn good music
and you will sing, sing, sing-a tonic
that will do you much good

GEORGE KEY NOT GUILTY
is RULING OF COURT

! McAlester, Okla, June 2O.-Sus-
tanning demurrer to the grand jury's
indictment charging misuse of the
United States mails in connection
with the sale of half interest in a
Wagner county oil lease to Bertrand
h. Clarke of Kansas City, Judge
Ralph r. Campbell. in the federal
court here Saturday noon, dismissed
the case against George d. Key, a
Tulsa attorney. The jury was in
! structed to return a verdict of not
| guilty, the defendant was ordered
/ discharged and his bondsmen were
eNonerated from further responsibility.
District Attorney d. II. Limbaugh
! excepted to the courts ruling, in.
| timating the possibility of an appeal,
but after court adjourned, refused to
discuss the probability of such action.
The clash of attorneys over the
indictment was precipitated by Nor,
ton Rutherford of Muskogee before
the government had entirely con
cluded the testimony of its first wit
ness. Edward Sewell, original owner
of the lease, had testified that his
first conversation with Key was on
April l6, 1914, that the contract for
the purchase OF the lease had been
signed that day; that the deal was
finally consummated and the money
paid him on the afternoon of April
%. There were two counts in the
indictment, one based upon a letter
written by Key to Clarke April 25;
the second being based upon a letter
of April 25. On motion of Mr.. Ruth
erford Friday evening, which was fol-
lowed by an extended argument, the
court Saturday morning required the
government attorney to elect which
count of the indictment it would stand
upon in the further prosecution of
the case. Since the first letter was
shown to have been written on the
day before Key had any conversation
with Sewell or before actual negotia.
tions had begun, the government Sc.
lected the last count. The defense
at once filed a demurrer to the in
dictment and the court sustained the
demurrer.
Keys counsel, while explaining the
transaction said that when Key wrote
the first letter he expected the price
of the lease to be much higher than
he found it to be, but finding that
he could acquire the lease on the
strength of his own resources, Key
purchased the property without hear
ing from his original proposal to
Clarke and in selling the half inter-
est to Clarke later he did so as own
er and not as a co-partner in pro-
noting the deal Clarke had honored
the draft. counsel said, after visiting
the property personally and using
his own Judgment as to its value.
The lease was later placed under
Clarke's management, it is said. |
Losses in operations caused partly by |
the drop in the price OF oil induced |
the co-partners TO turn it back to
Sewell at half the purchase price.
Sewell later resold the property for
