SHADE.

The kindliest thing God ever. made, His hand of very healing laid Upon a fevered world, is shade. His glorious company of trees Throw out their mantIes, and on these The dust-stained wanderer finds ease. Green temples, closed against the beat Of noontime's binding glare and heat, Open to any pilgrims feet. The white road blisters in the sun; Now. half the weary journey done, Enter and rest, o weary one! And feel the dew of dawn still wet Reneath inv feet and so forget The burning highways ache and fret. This is Gods hospitality.
 And who rests beneath a tree Hath cause to thank Him gratefully. --TheodOsia Garrison, in Everybody $
 Ma zine.

POETRY
JUST A GIRL.

Many a throne has had to fall
 For a girl,
 Just a girl; Many a king has had to crawl,
 For a girl,
 Just a girl: When the hero goes to war He may battle for the right, But 'tts likelier by far That he sallies forth to fight
 For a girl,
 Just a girl. When the doctor turns to say:
 Its a girl.
 Just girl" Papa murmurS with dismay:
 What! A girl,
 Just a gfrl?' An, but why the sadness there? Why the bitterness displayed? Some day some strong man will swear That the great round world was made For that girl,
 Just that girl. Why did Adam take the bite?
 For a girl,
 Just a girl. Why was Troy swept out of sight:
 For a girl
 Just for a girl. O, would heaven still be bright, And would any good man care To achieve it, if he might Never claim forever there
 Just a girl,
 Glorious girl.

VAULT ARGUMENT
Receptacle at Foot of Stairs
Built for Election Board
He Says.

The steel vault in the basement Of
the courthouse, directly ut the foot OF
the stairs. was the one originally in
tended tor use of the county election
board
This was the statement made to The
World yesterday by c. II. Cleveland,
member Of the board of county 90
inissoners which built the courthouse,
III letter in regard to the vault con-
troversy. Mr.. smith. now president
Of the First National bank Of Skiatook.
takes issue with Secretary Kenton and
Joe Short of the election board. His
letter said
THE frequent reference to the ne
cessity of a place to keep election bal
lot boxes at the courthouse and the
short rt-sightedness Of those who were
IN office at that time, when the plans
were made and accepted. are we'll cal
culated to set ms all to thinking and
ask each other why some special place
was not provided.
NOW. ! wish to say, once and for
all times hereafter, that your commis-
sioners who drew the pencil marks
were fully alive to all these necessi-
ties and a special vault was provided
FOR election ballot boxes.
Anyone who cares to have this
statement verified will find Il vault a.
the base of the stairs leading from the
basement to the next floor above, pro-
vidcd with a Mosier Steel door, on
which there is combination lock.
also three key locks each requiring Il
different pattern key, which each
member of the election board is en-
titled to ard should he rigidly respon-
sible for.
with this three key door it is i'm
possible for one member of the election
board TO enter the vault withuot the
other two men with their keys and il
would be just as impossible for any
two members to enter the vault with
out the third man with the key he
holds.
'It\ was made plain to your first
board of commissioners that just such
an arrangement was necessary to
safely guard the rights of successful
candidates regardless of the party
with which they are affiliated. Why
this place has not been used can bet
ter he explained by those who con-
stitue the election board than by any
of your present or former commits
siorcrs.
This combination of three key
locks and the regular mbination
lock itself would go long way
towards protecting the sacredness Of
the ballot boxes. should your election
board do its duty. The 'bonehead' in
leaving off the names Of the candi-
dates for one of the most important
offices in the county would indicate
that many more errors, perhaps seri
Gus ones, may hapepn in the future
from carelessness, neglect and general
indifference to the sacredness of the
oath of office"
