AUTO MEN WILL
HAVE MEETING
WEDNESDAY
AT CHAMBER OF COMMERCE TO
MAKE ARRANGEMENTS FOR
DISPLAYS AT COMING FAIR.
GOOD AUTO SHOW EXPECTED.

All automobile de9Iers in this city
who contemplate having a display at
the county fair are requested to
meet at the rooms or the chamber of
commerce tomorrow night and ar
range with the secretary for space.
1t is anticipated that all dealers in
this city will have a display, and in
all probability a large tent will be
secured for this purpose. The auto
display at the recent spring style
show was one of the most attractive
features, and dealers realize that
many sales were pegun there that
were later consumated. Secretary
West stated this morning that he
hoped every dealer in the city would
take advantage of this opportunity
and come out tomorrow night and
declare themselves.

CLOSED A GREAT MEETING.
Rev. w. T. Freeman Preached a Series
of Spiritual Sermons.

The series of meetings at Carter
Avenue Methodist church closed Sun
day night and the last services were
the greatest Of the entire series. AS
a result of the meeting, there were
q additions to the church. Many Of
these people are the most prominent
citizens of that section Of the city.
The influence of the revival will be
felt for years to come, and Rev. w. T
Freeman is loved more by his congre-
cation now than ever before. The
church has demonstrated that II car
hold great meeting. that 1t can have
harvest of souls, without sending
away for a revivalist. Rev. Freeman
has resided here for about ten years
and for four years of that time he
was the presiding elder of the Ard
more district. His preaching during
this meeting has been, what his
friends say, the finest work he has
ever done In the city. His sermons
were forceful and spiritual and they
aroused the people as Ardmorc has
not been aroused before ia many
years.

Labor Day Spent Quietly Here.

Labor day passed off very quietly
in this city. Aside from few private
picnics and fishing parties, nothing
further was attempted to celebrate
the event. The day was ideal, and
many union men who were compelled
by circumstances to remain in the city,
deplored the fact that the trades
unions did not attempt to have a fit
ting celebration at one of the parks.
An effort will be made another year
to consolidate the county fair with the
labor unions and have a joint celebra-
ton, that is if the date for the county
fair can be so arranged as to include
the first Monday in September which
is problematical, as that would bring
the opening date of the county fair
too early. II may be, however. that
the date for the fair may be deferred
until later in the month, and thereby
give the trades unions a chance to
have their celebration at the usual
time. The argument advanced toward
having the fair any earlier is that
crops are not all matured. and the
exhibits might be cut short on this ac-
count; however satisfactory arrange
ments may be made.

taken since the beginning of the of
fensive on the Somme front. The
positions wrested from the Germans
were powerfully organized. At Bar,
leaux, one of the strongest positions,
repeated direct attacks were unsuc-

to a turning movement, attacking to
the southwest, which brought them
success. The Germans counter-at-
tackled no less than six times.

NEW METHOD
SELLING HOMES
|SPOPULAR
VAST CROWDS SAW FOUR NEW
HOMES OPENED FOR FIRST
TIME LAST SUNDAY AFTER
NOON.

One thousand five hundred people
last Sunday were present at the open
ing of four new homes recently COM
pleted at the corner of C street and
Fourth avenue, southwest. The open
ing was advertised by C. o. Maddox,
and he and a number of gentlemen
were on hand to show the people
through the homes and to point out
the conveniences of construction. But
so many came that theirs was a hope
less task, and the visitors did their
own entertaining and their own pilot
ing and did not expect courtesies
that would have been extended had
they been fewer in number.
Mrs. John H. Carlock superintended
the serving of punch, and she was as
sisted by Misses Mary Anderson,
Gladys Walling, Matte Claire Gano
and Annie Thompson. In all, 81 gal
Ions of punch were served. Music for
the occasion was furnished by Misses
May Robert and Eunice Smith One
of the homes was furnished complete
by the Bass Furniture company.
AS a result of the exhibit one of
the homes has been sold and deals
are on for the sale of two others.
This was the first attempt ever made
to show houses in Ardmore in this
way, and the plan proved so attractive
that similar events will be common
from this time on.

PRESIDENT SAMUEL GOMPERS OF
AMERICAN FEDERATION Of La
BOR SPEAKS IN MAINE.
DEFENDS TRA|NNEN
oompers, While Praisin5 President for
His Efforts to Settle the Sailroad
Trouble, Denounees the Attempt to
Compel Arbitration.

Lewiston. Maine, Sept 6.-ln a
Labor Day address here Samuel Com
pers, president of the American Fed
Grafton of Labor, praised President
Wilson's administration for its achieve
ment in the interest of the labor
movement and denounced the decis-
ions Of the supreme court in the DAN
bury hatters and Arizona anti-alen
law cases, which he pointed out were
participated in by Charles l.. Hughes,
the republican nominee. He defended
the attitude of the brotherhoods in
the threatened railway strike and
while he praised President Wilson for
his efforts to settle the controversy he
unquaifedly denounced any attempt
at legislation to compel arbitration.
THE demand of the railroad broth
crhoods is a clear cut ISSUE" he said
"They now make the simple demand
that their lives and their physical well
being shall be protected and that they
shall be required only to work such
a reasonable period of time as indus
trial experience has shown to be ex-
pedient. For the eight-hour principle
has been universally accepted by So
ciety.
"The railroad brotheThoods have
not refused to accept arbitration.
They have declared that the eight
hour day involves a principle of hu.
man welfare that cannot be disputed
and therefore cannot be arbitrated.
They are willing to submit every other
issue, all of which are arbitrable, to
mutually satisfactory tribunal.
"They have made a virile, straight
forward fight and they deny that rail
road presidents or managers ought to
be given the special privilege or the
advantage that would accrue from
compulsory arbitration. Their posi-
ton is in accord with the position OF
the American Federation of Labor.
"The effectiveness and the possbili-
ties of the organized labor movement
have never been more clearly demon
strated than they have by recent
events. There is no limitation to the
possibilities of economic influence.
The fact that has been demonstrated
by the present European war is that
all bedrock power is economic
"As the labor movement progresses
slowly on the principles Of freedom,
humanity and justice, there is no de-
mand of labor that does not represent
years Of suffering, struggle and heart
burning desire.
"In word, though the trade union
movement may to some be a seeming
ly slow course in the attaining of the
rights and the justice and the free
dom TO which the toilers are entitled.
it is the sure growth. II has in II all
the elements of the human heart, hui
man brain and the human soul. II
goes down to the deepest depths of
misery and helps lift up the submerged
that they may take their places side
by side with the great struggling
masses of the toilers."
