monies.
Thompson enters into his duties
with several radical and unique poll
cies in regard to alienation of the
unemployment problem. conduct OF
the city's affairs, and police warfare
on crime and criminals.
Perhaps the most unique policy the
mayor has declared for is his planned
fight against unemployment. 1t is his
expressed plan to have the council vote
sum sufficient to give every patrol
man on the street dollar bill This
dollar is to be given at the policeman S
discretion, to men or women out OF
work, whom the policeman knows to
be deserving. Thompson's theory is
that the policeman is closer to the
average citizen than all the charity or
ganization agents in the world and is
thereby the one to do such work When
this dollar is expended, it will be re

As to the business side of conduct

BOY WINS
End PLACE

After losing at Weatherford by a
close margin and meeting with many
other formidable difficulties, Royal
Riddle. a c. II. 5. student, demon
strated what grit and perseverance,
can accomplish. when he took second
place in the state oratorical contest at
Nodman.
Finding Thursday morning that 1t
would be impossible to reach Norman
by rail in time for the contest Riddle
took the train to Purcell, walked
plank across the Canadian at Lexing-
ton and from there he took a farm
wagon through steady downpour to
Noble. From Noble he took caboose
TO Norman and then jitney to the
hotel.
After a good nights sleep he enter
ed the contest the following morning
despite severe cold and after com
peting with thirty-two contestants was
awarded the honor of the second best
orator among the high school students
in the state of Oklahoma.
Young Riddle deserves all the more
honor from the fact that he competed
with students who had been under the
supervision of experienced coaches
while he has fought his battle single
handed Chickasha should feel proud
of an honor OF this kind and the citi
2ens should see to il that more work
Of this character is done in future
years.
AS a result of young Rides victory
yer medal which any student might
justly feed proud Of.

Its worlds better now" said an
English soldier to me in the trenches
this afternoon. I'VE had stuck in ous
| trenches month after month, wonder.
ing how strong the fellow across the
way really was. and now we know.
We're out of our old trenches into the
new ones in Neuve Chapelle It's just
like that cowboy and Jack Johnson
fight"
asked him how the two were
alike.
Similar to Prize FIGHT.
Well, we were like the cowboy in
the first part of the war and Germany
was like Jack Johnson Germany
knew that if she licked us she'd have
to Go it in the early rounds; she
couldn't make a long fight of it.
well, last winters fighting Nts
just like the early rounds in the COW
boy-Johnson fight. Can you imagine
how worried that cowboy was until he
saw that Johnson was beginning to
get tired? And you can imagine nov
happy he felt when he found out that
all his blows were beginning to worry
the big black fellow Well. that was
us at Neuve Chapelle. Neuve Cha,
pelle showed US. And all of us rel
lows who were in that fight fell just
like Willard must have felt about the
sixteenth round"
Arouses Fresh Hope.
The point of this is not that Neuyc
chaDelle was interested in the Jack
Johnson fight, although the news did
flash like shell fire through the
trenches in the town as soon as it was
received, thirty hours late, tut that
the capture of Neuve Chapelle put a
new hope and a new fighting spirit |
into the English army and into the |
French army. 1t put smile on the
faces OF English soldiers that had been |
worn by the grinding rigors OF the
winter; it put them into tune with
the spring that is turning everything
green in the trench land. 1t will make
the French people understand the rain
bow in the black clio which the
French artist sketched tals afternoon.
A day at Neuye Chapelle, including
the trip there and back from the ED
glish headquarters, is an adventure
Of lifetime.

Pierre Carat, the singer and exquis-
tie of Napoleonic France, was not
merely a glass Of fashion and won
derful, self-instructed singer. but an
artist devoted to his art But is the
following, asks Mr.. Bernard Mail in
his biography, an example of sincerity
in art, or of love of attracting atten-
ton?
Coupigny had supplied him with a
romance" to be set to music, When.
ever the two met Carat replied, 81
have not hit upon an idea as yet"
One day Coupigny was walking down
the Rue Neuve-des-P
Hearing a sound of some one running
behind him, he turned; it was Carat
who seized him by the arm, dragged
him up the stairs of neighboring
house, and, hating on the first landing,
exclaimed, I've got it," At once he
began to sing the romance through at
the top of his voice. The inhabitants
of the house began to open their doors;
heads were projected over the ban
listers; finally they began to approach;
but Carat, having finished, tore down
the stairs like monkey, dragging the
bewildered poet with him.-Youth's

CRUDE, BUT DOES THE WORK
Primitive System of 'WireIess Teles.
raphy" In Use Among Tribes
Of Amazon Region.

In the Juamara region of the Anna
zon the natives use a crude system of
wireless telegraphy, which, 1t is
claimed, has been in operation for
thousands Of years. The transmitter
found by an explorer was a followed
trunk of a tree suspended from a hori-
zontal pole stretched between two
stumps. Inside the transmitter had
been arranged much like violin. and
1t was explained that when the in
strument was struck smartly with a
small rubber hammer a vibration was
created that carried for miles over the
hills. The receiver is very similar to
the transmitter. except that 1t is placed
on a hardwood platform. the base OF
the followed tree trunk being ground
ed on the platform When the mes
sage is struck In the neighboring vii
lage, sometimes thirty miles away,
this receiver catches the vibrations,
causing a ierky. singing sound. The
sound system, It is said, can be read
by the members of the tribe, and in
this way news of victories and other
happenings are told throughout the
countryside.

What Tuberculosis Costa.

1t has been estimated that deaths
from tuberculosis cost the nation half
a million dollars annually through the
loss of wages and the value of the
things workers would produce il they
were not suffering from the disease.
To conquer this enemy of the human
race more than s2OOOO,OOO a year is
expended. That the good work is pro-
crossing is shown by the fact that in
20 years the death rate from tubercu-
losis has been reduced from 245.4 to
1853 per 100000 population.

Her LESSON IN PROJECTION

Be Found In Very Large
Mansions.

There was a girl who was quite sure
hat when It came her turn to marry
The could not live in a house any
mailer than her fathers. Love in
cottage" was not her idea. Cupid, she
bought, needed plenty of room to flap
lis wings and to practice his archery;
le could not pine in a bird cage. So
she must have an immense library
with fireplace that would take six.
DOT log; there must be a drawing
Dom with parquetry flooring and thick
rugs sliding about on it; the dining
room must be able to hold large
table with an imposing bowl of flow
ars. She visualized herself ruling a
salon, hostess to a brilliant coterie Of
people who would help her social am
oition and her husbands business.
A school friend of hers came to see
her year and a half after she had
married and found her in little frame
house on a side street, ridiculously
happy with her husband and her baby.
The back yard was just about big
enough to hold a whirling clothes
frame and a narrow flower bed against
the fence: the piazza was as snug as
a sailors hammock; the largest room
was about the size of the vestibule OF
the brides girlhood home.
Il know what you're thinking"
laughed the proud little housekeeper
to her guest. You're wondering how |
could make up my mind to live in this
tiny piano box But I've made a dis
covery I've found that 1t isn't the
size OF the house that matters; it's
the size of the heart, and the biggest
hearts can live in the littlest houses"
