Lose Their Appetite for Prunes.

1t is one of the saddest. if not one
of the most comforting, things in life,
that when people have caught a
glimpse of the best, the second-best
can never again content them. If
they have once-be it only for mo-
ment-worn the best robe and sat
down to the feast, they will never
more really enjoy the husks of the far
country; even though the citizens of
that country prepare the same with
their most delicate arts, and serve
them up on gold plate. Unwise men
do not consider this, and fools do not
understand it; so that the former find
out too late that their souls must be
starved to death for lack of that bet
ter thing which they once so care
lessly threw away while the latter
enjoy their husky diet in peace, un-
knowing that there is any better thing
at all.-From Concerning Isabel Car
uaby," by Ellen Thorneycroft Fowler.

Fire Destroys Barn and Contents

Fire Destroys Earn and Contents.
Last Friday night about eleven
o'clock, fire destroyed the barn and
contents of Uncle Johnnie Harris
in the southeast part of town. dewey
Uncle Johns fine stallion, was burn
ed to death in the fire; some hogs,
which were in a shed adjoining the
barn, were so badly burned that they
had to be killed.
The origin of the fire is unknown
and was under such headway when
discovered that nothing could be
saved.
Uncle John had some insurance on
the barn and had $500 insurance on
the horse, but the insurance was a
small item compared to his loss.

Moonlight Schools.

If there was ever a doubt in the
minds of Oklahoma people as to the
advisability of attempting the work
of organizing moonlight or night
schools for adults, these doubts would
be dispeled by the mass of cores
pondence coming to the superintend'
ent of public instruction from men
and women who have learned to read
and write at the schools organized
this fall and which are still in opera
ton
Each of these letters tells a story
of human and absorbing interest. They
come from men and women, many o'
them gray-haired, who until now must
have had their marks" attested by
someone in order to make their writ
ten contracts binding. The fact that
letters received by them in times
past from loved members OF thelr
families who had wandered from the
family hearthstone had to be taken
TO someone else, often an outsider
to be deciphered must have been
humiliating and calling to sensitive
natures. II was these who were the
first to grasp the opportunity to at
least learn to read and write, and
the happiness standing out in every
line of these letters is an ample re
compcnse for the work which has
been and is being done.

WILL HOLD CLASS
BANQUET At HIGH
School Authorities Step in and
Spoil Plan of Juniors and
SeniOrS-BuiIding Is Good
Enough.

Seniors and juniors of the high
school, who anticipated eating the an
nuaI junior-senior banquet at the Oil
yer hotel, next Friday night. will be
disappointed. The school authorities.
after leading the two classes to believe
that the affair could be held at the
hotel, suddenly stepped in Monday
nlsht' at a Joint JuniOr-senior meeting
and placed a ban on the affair if il
was staged at the Oliver.
Prof. T.. l.. Sims, who made the an
nouncement, said in Justification OF
ms act, that when the board of edu-
cation voted a new building il was
with the understanding that all school
affairs should be held in the building.
He said that if any outside place was
used for a high school meeting of any
sort, those who attended would be de-
MED the use of the high school gym
nasium thereafter and that the affair
would put "A quietus on all future
high school functions
Mr. Sims stated that the juniors
would not want their privileges cur
tailed next year, as they would be if
the banquet were held outside OF
the school and that if the SEN
Tors wanted TO go ahead and
buy themselves a feed" at a SIPS per
plate, they could do so, but that the
school would send letters to the par
ents saying that the affair was not
given the sanction of the high school,
and if little Johnnie worked papa
for the money saying that it was
high school stunt, he was securing
money under false pretenses.
I'VE have found the school good
enough for our other affairs this
year" said Mr. Sims. the Chamber
of Commerce has found il good
enough, and the Alumni association
has found il acceptable, SO there is no
good reason why the school is not
good enough on this occasion. Deco
ratiOns can be used in such form that
the place will not be recognized and
everyone will be better satisfied"
In view Of this action by the author
tiles, taken after a majority of the
two classes had expressed their pref
erence for the oliver, all the classes
could do was to graciOusly consent to
hold the affair in the high school
lunch room.
The classes voted that if 100 paid
in their money before Wednesday aft
ernoon at the close of school, the ban
quet would be held, and that those
who did not sign up before Thursday
morning would be prevented from at
tending. The classes voted unant-
mously that none but seniors and
juniors would he admitted to the al
fair. This action was necessary ow-
ing to the fact thaC at high school do
ings. no matter what class or Organl-
ZatfOn entertains there are more or
less outsiders and underclassmen that
attend. and this affair is planned eX-
clusively for the seniors and Juniors.
