Wilson also recommends that text

composed entirely OF practical school
people Who are acquainted with the
kind of books needed FOR the most
efficient school work AS # is now
the books are adopted by the state
board Of education which Is not com
posed entirely Of school people AS a
result Of this we now have a broken
series Of histories and many teachers
complain that the pupils cannot do the
best work with such texts
It Is also urged by Superintendent
Wilson that a law be passed that VIII
give proper supervision Of school
building plans TO insure their having
ample ventilation and their being thor
oughly sanitary. He also asks for a
system Of health inspection for pupils
and teachers Such laws it Is claimed
will place Oklahoma IN the ranks with
other prog szsive states that have laws
Of this nature.
An appropriation out OF the concoll'
dated school fund for the aid Of con
solidated and union graded districts
IS recommended. The law authorizes
this aid. The money has been re-
served for this purpose and these dis
tricts have proven their worth. Il Is
also recommended that all districts
provide that high sqnool education bt

it Under present conditions many
pupils live III districts which DO no'
maintain high schools and an pupils

ATHLETICS IN THE ARMY WOLF SKINS NOW VALUABLE
War Has Jumped Price of Pelts
From One to Eight DOL
lars Each.

Flow the great war across the seas

Ote skins go soaring no one here
seems to know. 1t is Il fact, neverthe-
less, that pelts Of these animals are

shows Il rise in their market value.
The explanation is offered by buyers
French armies are to be clothed in the
furs of wolves and coyotes during the
coming winter, but it is thought this
story has little foundation. Some new
use has caused prices to go bounding
upward. The chief demand comes
from abroad.
The price of a coyote pelt has in
creased during the last few months
from 81 to So. Wolf skins of the lobo
species sell for even higher prices. 1t
is such a profitable business profess

Cattlemen and sheepGen suffer an

flocks. The present activity in exter-
minating the animals is very crafty

Time Devoted to Outdoor Sports to
Be Left to Post Com
manders.

Disputes among army officers in the
Philippines over baseball games and
other athletic sports have caused Off
Gals at the war department to consid-
er the ACCESSIBILITY of the issue of az
official regulation to govern in cases
where there is a possibility that the
games may interfere with regular mil
itary duty With the approval of the
secretary of war, Adjutant General
Mccain has issued the following men,
orandum on the subject:
1.-THE extent that sporting events
NAV be INDUCED in at military posts
is a matter that rests within the dis
erection and judgment of the post COM
mander. and it is not thought best to
lay down any general rule that would
restrict him in his discharge of that
duty. He is held responsible for the
discipline, training and general condi-
ton of his troops, and it is maintained
that athletics go hand in hand with
military training and are vital to the
welfare and cOntentment of officers
and men. Az officer or enlisted man
who does not keep in good physical
condition is bound to fail in the su-
preme test of war. Washington
