The Oklahoma Farmer

The average Oklahoma farmer
gets up at the alarm of Connecti-
cut clock; buttons his Chicago
suspenders to Detroit overalls
washes his face with Cincinnati
soap in a Pennsylvania pan; sits
down to Grand Rapids table
eats Chicago meat and Minnesota
-four, cooked with Texas cottolene
on a Sears-Roebuck stove; puts a
New York bride on a Missouri
mule, fed with Colorado alfalfa ;
plows a farm covered with a Yer
mont mortgage with an Illinois
plow. When bedtime comes he
reads a chapter from Bible
printed in Boston, says prayer
written in Jerusalem, crawls
under a blanket made in New Jer-
sey, only to be kept awake by an
Oklahoma dog-the only home
product on his place-and then he
wonders why he cannot make
money raising corn.

The Price Of College Bred

Huston talks of college bred
being a four years loaf. Why it's
simply cake here at Delaware"
The above comment by Sopho-
more started a discussion. A Wis
iting Alumnus who keeps in pretty
close touch with college activities
made this observation: "Boys,
Delaware has improved---improved
wonderfully. Library, laboratory,
teaching staff, gymnasium-all so
improved that it appears wonder
tul to me. Compared to my day
it is university-but. Now |
don't want to be old-fashioned and
laud those days when | was here
but to my reckoning this body of
over two hundred students with
all these facilities, with their bril-
liantly lighted frats, don't give as
many hours to study as did the lit
tie bunch Of less than seventy-five
when I was here. I'll tell you Nate
Motherall's coal-oil and George
James heat were used to the limit,
Poverty Row, DEVILS Den, Para
disc Alley, were crude compared to
Fraternity luxury but they were
the scenes of harder work than
fraternities dream Of. Under
stand, I am not opposed to frater-
mites, if they make good. They
give polish but how about college
spirit and most of all how about
work? Athletics, social life i'm
proved and l am heartily glad
But college is place for work o,
at least that is an old Grads view
Remember DR.. Wolf funking {
whole class. That was the result
of too much college bred in those
days"

PARENTS AND
TEACHERS MEET
Fall Meetings Open With In

1 dll NleetlngS open win IN
teresting prospect
The Parent-Teachers' Associa-
tion held an interesting meeting
last Thursday afternoon in the
grammar schools. This was the
first meeting Of the fall and was
we'll attended both by parents and
teachers. Mrs. C. o. Houghton
presided and a number of matters
for the mutual benefit of teachers
and pupils were discussed.
The indications are that as re-
suit of the activity of this associa-
tion a reference library will be es
tablished for the grammar and
primary schools which is some
thing that is much needed. The
matter was brought up at this
meeting and Miss Frances Medill
and Mrs. Frank Cooch were named
a committee to look into the mat
ter and report back to the asso-
citation. Some plan will probably
be suggested for raising funds
with which to start the library.
Principal Friedel suggested that
something be done to interest the
pupils in spelling. Last year
prizes were offered and it had a
good effect in increasing interest
in spelling. After some discussion
it was decided to offer cash prizes
in spelling and Mrs. Kennedy
Mrs. Rowan, and Mrs. Barnard
were named a committee to work
out the details of the plan.
For some months the ground II
the rear of the primary scnool has
been in bad condition and this
matter was brought up ard dis
cussed There are low places OF
the ground where water lays aftel
rain and glass and bottles have
also been dumped there that makes
it dangerous for children who play
on the grounds. Miss Esther Fer
guson and Mrs. Ritz. was appoint
ed a committee on grounds to Try
and have some improvements made
Some of the members thought ;hat
it would be possible in time tt
make a model playground for the
children on this ground there be
= ing plenty of space.
Mrs. Houghton stated that {
number of teachers had suggested
to her that they would be glad tc
have the parents of pupils visit the
school as they thought the coop
Grafton of parents would help theil
work. It was decided to appoint
visiting committee Of four tc
visit the schools each month but
other members will be equally
welcome should they desire to visit
the schools at any time The visit
ing committee named by the chail
for October consists of Mrs. Will
lam H. Cook, Mrs. William j. Bar
nard, Mrs. Arthur S. Houchin ant
Mrs. William E. Hayes.
Following the business meetin,
there was a social hour when re
