WELCOME BANKERS.

Chickasha is playing the part Of hos
tess to a fine body OF bankers today
and it is entirely unnecessary to say
that all of them are welcome in our
midst, as welcome as the flowers in
May or at any other old time. Il
there is one thing that delights Chick
asna more than anything else, it is
to have company comen upon whom to
pour out our superabundant supply
Of hospitality
We are glad to see the money
kings" from Oklahoma towns and
those who come from the less forum
ate realms beyond our borders. Az II
mere matter OF information to the lat
ter class Of visitors, we desire to say
that if they look around they will find
Oklahoma in the midst of pretty tall
wave OF prosperity and If they have
more spare change in their pockets
than they can conveniently use. they
can't find a better place to plant some
of it than right here. Perfect frank
ness and the knowledge that they are
aware of the fact impel us
to confess thai this condition has not
existed at all times during the past
few years, but it is here now by n |
big majority. Oklahoma Is up and
coming and is going to show even Mis-
sourians few things within the near
future.
We hope the visiting bankers Will
have a genuine good and profitable /
time in Chickasha. If any of them have
committed the crime of usnry, which I
Is in high disfavor in Oklahoma at the
present. time, we don't insist upon hav-
ng them thrown in while they are our
guests, but will recommend that the
deal leniently with them.
or after all, we need bankers and
must have them in our business. or
course, there are some black sheep
imong them. as is the case in every
lind of flock, but as q class they per-
orm service which is indispensable TO
,rogress and are therefore to be hon
red in the same measure as men of
very other useful calling are honorod.

BIRDHOUSES AS
CONTEST SCHEME
Secretary Patton Makes a Sug-
gestion That Should Receive
Much Support

A competition in bird houses be-
tween the public schools of Pennsyl-
Vania, especially the rural schools. as
a means of arousing the interest of
the pupils in the importance of at
tractlnS Dlrds to farms is suggested by
secretary of Agriculture Charles T..
Patton in his bulletin from the de-
partmental Offices this week
lnsectiVorouS birds are a splendid
help TO agriculture, as they are par
ucularly valuable in destroying the in
sect life which infects gardens, trees
and fields, parks and woods, in city
and country" says the secretary, 1t
is suggested shat the teachers interest
people living in their districts in Civ
ing prizes and then stir up the boys
to the value of bird life conservation
by talks on what good the birds do,
now the boys may help keep them and
how they may build bird houses.
The prizes would be given for the
boys making the best bird houses and
for the houses showing the first nest
ing. In order TO arouse interest the
department will send a bulletin on
building bird houses, telling what
birds are beneficial to the farmer and
how to attract them. which has been
written by DIR. Fl. A. Surface, the State
zoologist to every teacher requesting 1t.
DR.. Surface says that if the people of
the State would only make it attract
i've for the birds, they would save
thousands of dollars now lost because
of destruction of valuable trees, plants
and vines by bugs which are the food
of the insectivorous birds
In addition to urging the contests
in bird houses the Department of Agri-
culture is stirring up interest in early
hatching of chicks by poultry raisers
by issuing figures showing the early

In Gallipoli Just Before the
Evacuation They Exhibited
the Utmost Daring

Sydney, Australia, Feb. 23.-(Corre-
spondence of the Associated Press. -
Some interesting incidents of the last
days of the allied operations on the
Gallipoli peninsula are reported in de-
layed correspondence from the official
press representative with the Austral-
ian forces at the Dardanelles. He tells
OF the daring manner in which the
Turks sought to learn the extent of
the withdrawal of the allied forces,
and he pays tribute to the Turk as an
enemy.
-Four days ago." he writes from
Anzac, without date, Just as the first
light began to broaden into a bitter
wintry dawn at o'clock in the morn
ing the Australian sentries as they
blew their ungloved fingers behind the
parapets at Quinns Post saw about
thirty Turks creeping up from behind
the hummocks of broken earth which
separate our front trench from that of
the Turks. Their heads appeared
about fifteen yards away. Twenty-six
of them-or Observation-Disclosures crawl
ing down into a small depression be-
tween the trenches where for the mo-
ment they were hidden from this part
of the line. But the other four came
boldly across straight to the center of
Quinns trenches. For q particular
reason our men let them come. They
walked straight up to the slanting wire

their bombs-the Turks have Just such

amongst our men in the trench; and
then into the trench jumped the lead
ing Turk.
HE had a rifle in his hand with
bayonet fixed. He landed on his feet,
turned to his right and strobe down
the trench. Four men were leaning
against the wall of the trench wounded
by the bombs. He pushed past them
and straight into the dark mouth of
our bombproof-that is to say a
section of the trench with tight roof
of earth and beams overhead. AS he
strobe into the darkness, just in the
mouth of IT, a sergeant met him. The
sergeant was coming the other way,
also with his bayonet. The two faced
each other in the narrow way. They
parried and guarded past. The Turk

sergeant wrenched it away. But by

LOOKING FOR WORK

Everywhere men complain about
work; even boys and girls in school or
business find work tedious and irk-
some, but it isn't the work half so much
as their own lack of physical strength
that makes it hard.
Rich blood, strong lungs and health
full digestion make work pleasurable
in business, in school or even house
work, and if those who are easily tired
who are not sick, but weak and ner-

sion for one month and let its pure
concentrated food create richer blood

tissue and give you vigorous strength
you would find work easy and would

WHAT most people be

\AHAT most people be-
w lieve to be the disease
Catarrh, is really only q
symptom.
The most common symp-
tom of the presence of Ca
taFTf1 in the system is an in
famed and tender condition
of tn e breathing passages
and the blocking of throat
and nostrils with mucuous.
It is a frequent mistake to
treat this symptom and neg
lect the actual disease that
causes it.
Catarrh is the result Of
poisons and impurities in
the blood. These impurities
must be removed before the
disease can be cured.
The use of washes, nasal
douches and soothing
creams on the irritated
membranes, can have but
little effect---they m erely
ease the local irritation but
do not reach the disease.
CatasTh is a disease of the
blood. To cure it you must
go to the seat of the trouble.
