lYPSlES WHO LIVE ON WATER
Fifty Thousand Nomads, 1t Has Been
Estimated, "Run the Banks"
of the Mississippi.

( The lower Mississippi river is one of
the greatest houseboat play regions of
the United States Beginning in the
early autumn, people who dread the
cold and who seek long winter rest
leave Ohio and upper Mississippi river
towns and seek the thousand miles Of
flowing road from Cape Girardeau to
the Gulf Of Mexico. Tllis fall migra-
ton of humanity--this wandering Of
river gypsies is one of the strangest "a
the country.
1t is said there are more than fifty
thousand people living on the hundred
thousand miles of navigable streams
In the Mississippi basin. These are.
the shanty boaters, who dwell in vari-
GUS ways on the rivers and rubbing
the banks" Besides these river people
there are large numbers of sportsmen
and temporary residents afloat in mo-
tor boats and houseboats, making a
population of perhaps one hundred
thousand, not including the steam
boaters," who scorn the ,shanty boat
ers.
Between the two classes of river
people is a feud that dates from the
old keelboat days, when steam power
deprived the huge rowboats of their
passenger and freight traffic.
The shanty boaters are strange float
Ing nomads. They have many kinds
of boats, which they call 'cabin boats"
and which range all the way from a
"hogpen on a raft" to luxurious gaso-
line-drlven houseboats of large size
and beautifully equipped. An ieeman,

A REMARKABLE GROWTH

Probable no other organization in
Chickasha has enjoyed the growth the
past two years as that Of the Heralds
of Liberty This month rounds out
their second years work in the city,
and in this time over 165 members
have been admitted and over S225,0
of business produced.
The plan issued and owned by this
society whereby a living member is
paid every time death occurs is
largely responsible for this large vol
ume Of business and large member
ship in so short time, together with
the untiring efforts Of M. e. Bunnell,
the district organizer at this place.
Besides placing the order among the
leaders in Chickasha the past two
years, Mr. Bunnell has also organized
lodges in many nearby towns.
The Heralds Of Liberty is destined
to be the largest organization in
Chickasha as well as in all parts of
the United States. as people are being
converted to the new idea every hour
and every minute, and as fast as they
understand the plan. which distrib-
utes the money equally between the
beneficiaries and the living, they take
hold Of it. In ten years the society
will have living, walking. talking mon
uments in every city and town, like
D. F. Scrimager of Chickasha who re-
ceived $500 in December at total
cost of 1884.
It will pay you to give Mr. BunneII
a hearing should he call, or better still
call on him and ask him to explain
the plan, its merits, benefit and cost.

DODGE BROTHERS

ENAMELING PLANT

!. !. 1. !. !. i !. !. !. !. !. !. :. + !. :: !
The remarkable finish of the all
steel bodies of Dodge Brothers motor
cars is always the subject of admira-
ton where motor enthusiasts gather
for comparisons and this has led to
many conjectures as to how the finish
is applied.
The department in which the bod
les are enameled in the plant Of
Dodge Brothers at Detroit was devel-
oped within the plant and q portion
Of the process is secret. The steel
bodies are carefully prepared for the
reception of the enamel, which is APP
piled in q manner developed in the
plant, and are then conveyed through
q battery Of ovens approximately
1000 feet long by double chain
system. When they emerge, the
enamel has been baked on and has
the high lustre that has attracted SO
much attention.
The entire installation cost more
than $4,000 and many parts of II
are exclusively Dodge Brothers. The
heat is automatically controlled by
electricity and the temperature il
maintained evenly within five de.
grees. The heat loss is but per
cent, SO carefully has insulation been
worked out.
The ovens have a capacity of 1900
completely enameled bodies every "a
