 This may be neutral action but h the ordinary comprehension
 il appears strangely one sided. Il would have been eminently
 fairer 10 all concerned to have warned Americans to refrain
 from travelling on armed belli- gerent ships, No one could then have accused us of deliberately conspiring to injure one of the belligerents in favor of another, m accusation which can now be leveled at Us with perfect justice.

 This virtually means that she will have 10 abandon all attacks on passenger carrying shlps be- cause of the inability of her sub marine commanders 10 ascertain the nationanty ot their paSsen gers. It also means that the presence of one American aboard an armed. vessel will be an in iallible guarantee oi immunity from attack Ii Germany adheres to her compact. Her submarines cannot rise to warn such vessels for fear ot being sunk and dare not attack them unwarned be- cause ot the danger ot inviting trouble with the United States. All the allies have to do to pro tcct their vessels is 10 carry a few guns and few Amer.eans and Germany is helpless. This k all very nice for that class of Americans who will insist on their right to do as they please

CRITICISM is BLIGHT

When subscriptions are raised in a
city it is very hard thing to hear
one man criticise another severely
for not giving or for not giving as
much as he thinks he should. The
habit is a distasteful one, it is un-
fair II discourages and does harm
and never does any good. When a
man learns that others are not pleased
with his stock subscription it is as
natural for him to pull back on the
halter as II is to get in out of the
rain. He gets stubborn, he concludes
to his entire satisfaction that what he
has he has earned and has right TO
use it as he pleases. A better plan
would be to adopt the system of busi.
ness man who stated that he never
ousted a man from his employ but II
he ever had man who did not keep
his traces taut that he got so lonesome
in good company that he quit of his
own accord Ii is impossible for us TO
understand all the plans and the am
bitions and burdens of the other fell
low. We can make stock subscrip-
tions and donations to public enter
prises better by refusing ever to per
nit ourselves TO criucise any other
man OF the town. 4 word Of criti-
cism has its effect upon men who hear
it. They feel that every man is not
carrying his part, that he is assum
ing too much in proportion to others
and criticism in one instance hinders
the next progressive movement that
comes. Checrfulncss and reasonable
generosity will accomplish all we need
to have accomplished and the man who
cannot give a little and smile whole
lot will get so lonesome he will sell
out and move. Men must have con
genial associations in order to be
happy and there can't be any con
genality in Ardmore for the man who
does not pull against the collar

There is reason. That lies in this one thing
that Ardmore has begun grow into city One of the
convenences of the city is large of paved streets
and Ardmore going to have that thing Many OF

IMPATIENT WITHOUT A CAUSE.

Ardmore has reached that point where there is de-
mand for large modern freproof hotel structure and
there is also demand for modern office buildings. Our
people grow impatient sometimes and offer criticism that
the city active in taking hold of these things
The criticism is unwarranted the impatence is without
a real cause. Count the oil towns you know, and
YOU cannot call one mind that has grown faster than
Ardmore Tulsa was without modern hotel or modern
office building and had them for several years
after the discovery of oil Tulsa the wonder oil city OF
the state and have than kept pace with it con-
sdering the life of the Ardmore fields Instead of COM
planning. we have many for rejoicing.
But Ardmore ought to do better than Tulsa. We ought
to grow faster than that city did, for the that the
ArCmore oil area largely owned by local people, and
the oil fortunes this city to build new homes to
swell the bank deposits while at Tulsa the first men to
profit out of the fields the oil men of Pennsylvania
and Ohio and other oil states.
Ardmore is growing fast any person trained IN
the art of town building expects it to build.
