DR.. Evans to Head Kendall
Continued from first page.)

In the selection of Doctor Ev-
ans as the president of Henry
Kendall college it is assured that
the most capable man for the
position has been chosen. Doc
tor Evans was born at Salem.
KY. Aug. 16, 1870. In the
schools Of that section he obtain
ed the rudiments of the educa-
ton and knowledge which has
made him a prominent factor in
the educational world.
Acquiring all the knowledge
which the small schools Of Salem
had to offer, Doctor Evans con-
tinued his work until he was en-
abled to enter the state univer-
sity of Kentucky where he grad
uated. He then entered the
National Normal university at
Lebanon, Ohio. At this institu-
ton he was regarded as one Of
the most brilliant members Of
the student BODY.
In an address at the banquet
Monday evening Doctor Evans
formally accepted the position Of
president of the college and
briefly stated that he hopes for
success at the Presbyterian in
stitution which will exceed any
other attempt in his life.
Henry Kendall college was
founded in the pioneer days of
the Indian territory. When the
Indians moved into the western
country from the east there
came with them men and woman
Of great faith and sacrifice to
teach and to preach.
Soon great institutions like
Spaulding, Armstrong, Haskell
institute and others sprung up.
As early as 1866 Henry Kendall
college was founded at Musko-
gee. 1t became a hourishing
school under the direction OF the
Presbyterian church. It was
changed TO Tulsa from Muskogee
about ten years ago because a
heavy endowment was offered.
It has been an institution to
reckon with throughout its
course.
Today the school has all the
pupils 1t can we'll handle. II

four buildings worth more than

attack. Those OF the opposition argue
that II Il starts II will be carried to
a point Of armed mllltarism and that
any preparation will go to extreme.
Following out this logical line II
resolves itself to the conclusion that
those opposed to extensive prepared
ness, would have our country stand
utlll without any means OF defense at
ali, until an attack comes. and then
rely on the patriotism of the country
to rally and repel an invasion.

BEAUTIFyING THE OPEN COUN.
TRY

Farm a Ranch:
Interest Is Increasing In building
and maintaining good roads. This
means greater progress In rural so
clety than most people realize. For
one thing good roads Will give far
mers and their families a chance to
take recreation In oyer-the-country
trips.
As soon 40 we get god roads we
are sure to want better homes, better
schools. better churches and better
scenery In the country We will not
depreciate the natural scenery In the
country but we are apt to take more
interest In planting trees. flowers,
shrubs, etc, making ponds, lakes and
pools. breeding wild animals, etc.
Country roads can be improved
greatly by planting trees, painting
farm homes, barns. outhouses, etc.
and lnestablIshing fish ponds, lakes,
parks. etc. Country people appreciate
the beauty and attractlyeness Of the
open country. perhaps not as much
as town people who are kept indoors
so much. but they nevertheless enjoy
parks. woods, rivers, lakes, hills, etc,
why not beautlfy the road sides. the
school grounds. the church yards Of
the country?
This is a work that tho young peo-
pie of the community might well I'M
dertake. They can benefit the coun-
try by making It more attractive and
leave monuments to their interest

really nothing dishonorable as men of

Jephson best by keeping the necklace
for the present and seeing to it that 1t

him. Then he reached out, took up the
necklace and restored it to els pocket

it pleasantly. Wear 1t by all means"
