To CONVENE
JANUARY I.
SESSIONS WILL PROBABLY BE
HELD IN INDIA TEMPLE BUILD
ING - MEMBERS THINK 30
DAY SESSION WILL SUFFICE.

Oklahoma City, Dec. 23.--While no
official confirmation is obtainable it
seems to be certain that special
session of the legislature will CON
vene Jan. H. The state board Of
public affairs today undertook nego-
tiations for rooms in India Temple
building to be occupied by the law
makers and the date named is be-
lieved to be the time set for opening
the session. The formal call is not
expected before Jan. l.
Members of the house and senate
are cooperating in preparation Of
bills to be introduced under the rec
concentrations of the governor 1t is
understood that some of the measures
will start in the house and some in
the senate. so far as can be learned,
the number of subjects to be sub
mitted is small, including the election
law, that is considered the chief rea-
son for the session; the usury bill,
that has been the storm center of
discussion preceding the call; reve'
nue. measures industries for the state
prisons, and the highway law, that
requires some amendments.
Members who are at work on the
program are of the opinion that the
session can be completed in thirty
days if the work to be done be well
tligested in advance and the efforts
of the lawmakers confined to these
subjects 1t was announced by Gov
ernor Williams when he first COLI
islature, that the session ought tG BE-
completed in thirty days at the maxi
mum and probably in twenty day
Whether this can be done will no
doubt largely depend upon the amount
of pressure that may be brought to
bear upon the executive to permit the
consideration of other measures than
those which are now thought to be
necessary
Governor Williams has no state.
ment to make as to his intentions in
regard to calling the legislature, but
there is every indication both about
the executive offices and in the other
offices of the state that the session
is imminent and that the date has
been fixed for Jan. Il,
That there will be other matters
than those mentioned to be consider
ed by the legislature is obvious in
the condition of the &c fare cases
The appropriation of $4,000 mad
last winter is exhausted. 1t will re
quire about $4,000 to complete the
trial of these cases and that will nc
doubt be asked for. The question
of preferential primaries that ha'
been close to the sympathies of Go"
ernor Williams is still pending ard
that il will be allowed to go before
the lawmakers is likely. There arc
several members and senators with
pet propositions that are TO be push
ed and that Governor Williams will
be prevailed upon to allow them to
be taken up seems likely.

his community, upon his state, and
upon the public generally to the eN-
tent that he fails to care for ms
health No man of sound mind would
come in contact with a case OF chol-
era if he could escape 1t, yet TINS
same man will make little effort TO
avoid a multitude of conditions, none
of which cause public panic, yei
any one of which if uncontrolled may
result in death 4 decayed tooth
for example, may seem trivial ana
unimportant. yet bad teeth are the
cause of much human misery and dis
ease
I'm recent years, the problem OF the
conservation of human health ana
human life has presented itself so
forcefully to intelligent persons that
governmental bodies are taking hold
of il with both hands, determined TO
barley no longer with those who are
so ignorant, lazy or backward as TO
insist that they should be let alone
in their disregard of their duties 10
society in matters of health, The
federal and state governments are
combining more effectively than in
any past time in a nationwide effort
to lift man above merely animal
like existence. While one man may
limp along the street with crippled
leg or an injured foot, attracting
attention by reason of his miSfOr-
tune thousands are limping along
with crippled health, due mostly to
preyentable disease, without making
any effort to improve their condition.
The Oklahoma state board of health
desires to render to the people OF
Oklahoma a real service in the better
ment and conservation of their health
and during the coming year will re-
double its efforts in this direction II
has received assurances from every
community that such information as
il has been able to give in public
way during the year now closing has
been helpful. The board of health
would be grateful if each citizen dur
inc 1916 would devote at least a part
of his time to health conditions in
his respective community. This
means not only lending hand to
particular problems of health that
may arise locally, but it means an
intelligent study of health matters,
to learn why there is such nation
wide agitation of the subject
The state board of health desires
to cooperate with individuals as well
as with constituted authorities in
stamping out sickness and disease in
this state. 1t is Il waste of time
idly to read bulletins that urge the
people against the househy, against
the danger of contaminated water
and against impure food, etc, unless
the reader at once makes use of that
information by seeing that it is ap-
piled in his own home and in his own
community If farmers would give as
much real attention to the health of
themselves and their families as they
do to their pigs and calves, and if
business men were as thoughtful
about their own health and the health
of their own towns as they are about
driving good bargain, Oklahoma
would soon be able, like Atlas, to
carry the world on its shoulders.
Proper-even fair-obseryance of
hygiene and sanitation in Oklahoma
during 1916 would be worth more in
actual dollars and cents than the
wheat crop, or any other crop.

The New Britain soccer football

of the decision handed down by the
committee of appeals of the United

standing because Of alleged irregu-

but the national association upheld
New Britain's appeal and, therefore,
they have been declared champions.
