propriate to the occasion, one of
which had that morning been written
by Prof Loes especially for the occa-
sion, which follows:
Follow the Crodws to the Picnic
There's a time of the year that is
welcomed
By the babies and grand-daddies
gray;
'Tis the time when we go to the Pic
mic,
To be happy and cool for day.
What a jolly good time we experience,
AS with sweethearts, relations and
friends,
Round the food-laden tables we
gather,
And we eat till our hunger expends.
Then it is that the females of forty
Smile and play as if sixteen again;
And the boys with their shouting
and romping,
Make their daddies forget they are
men.
Chorus.
0 come, come, come, come,
Follow the crowds to the picnic,
To the grove where the trees low
ly bend;
With enough for three meals fill your
basket,
And bring plenty of money to spend.
Revs. Burke and Hobbs then took
charge of the program, Rev. Burke
making a most interesting, edifying
and patriotic address, which held the
closest attention to his hearers from
first to last. The essence Of his talk
was that the truly great and patriotic
were those who fought zealously for
the Lord, rather than to butcher his
felIow-man. He was followed by
Rev. Hobbs, who brought out addi-
tional points along the same lines Of
thought. Presiding Elder II. p,
Grove, of the M. Z. Church, South,
followed with few happy remarks,
"to fill in with, as he expressed it,
while Prof. and Miss Loes were being
escorted to the stand for closing
song, their inspiring music having
made them indispensable, no matter
how entertaining the balance of the
program may have been.
The remainder of the afternoon
passed quickly with sack races, foot
races, in which the preachers partici-
pated, and in which Rev. Cunning
ham of the Baptist Church proved him
self to be real sprinter. All in all
it was a most enjoyable day for al
present. Even the candidates, Of
whom there were many present, ap-
peared to thoroughly enjoy them
selves.

Naive Williams, son Of Geo, X.
Williams, returned the first Of the
week from the new mining field near
Miami, Okla. He reports the recent
discovery OF several splendid addition
al ore bodies. 1t seems that Farming
ton boys are playing particularly well
in that splendid mineral field.

Another punt worthy Of notice in
connection with the present manage
ment, is the fact that it has never
made single bad account, but every
cent due the institution has been col
lected, so that the outstanding ac-
counts are considered perfectly good.
The above total therefore, represents
the exact amount that the institution
is now to the good, without any recent
State appropriation. There is not a
cent of outstanding Indebtedness
against the institution, except the
June accounts, which have not yet
been verified and allowed. There is
approximately $4,000 yet to be bill
ed for the remainder of 1916.
The Times reporter also interviewed
The Farmington times. (Farmington, St. Francois County, Mo.) 1905-1926, 1916-07-07

On the eve of the taking up of a
thorough investigation of affairs of
State Hospital No. A, by the State
Board Of Charities and Corrections,
which began yesterday morning, a
Times reporter visited that institu-
tion Wednesday morning for the pur-
pose of securing all possible informa-
tion in regard to the management and
financial condition of that institution,
under its present management, in or
der that Times readers may know, as
nearly as possible, what the real con-
dition of that institution is, that all
the hue and cry for an investigation Of
its affairs should be made.
The Times man had no difficulty in
securing the information sought. In
fact, the management seemed pleased
to furnish him with all possible data
desired, to show just how the financial
affairs of the hospital had been man
aged during the administration Of
DR.. G. e. Scrutchfield, who will have
completed his third year in that posi-
tion next month. In the first place
we found that the present Superin-
tendent has already served longer in
that position than did any of his pre-
decessors, by about year. We also
found that the financial condition of
the hospital is in far better condition
than it ever before has been, and that
it has not, for the past two years, re-
ceived any State appropriation. In
fact, the last appropriation of $685.
900, made by the Legislature nearly
three years ago, still remains un-
touched in the State Treasury. This
is the reason there have been no fur
ther appropriations for its mainte-
nance. In fact, State Hospital No,
has been absolutely self-sustaining
practically during the past three years.
The books on Wednesday morning
disclosed the following financial con-
dition Of Hospital No. 4.

PLAN FOR OPENING
OF TULSA SCHOOLS
Increase in Enrolment to
Be Cared for by Add
tional Buildings.

With the arrival of +. T. Oberholt-
zer, superintendent of city schools,
and L. j. Katz, high school principal.
affairs relative to the opening of
school September is are whipping
into shape on regular schedule.
Erection of four additional tenn
pcGary structures on the high school
grounds has solved the problem of
for the high school so
far as il is possible to solve the same.
The four new rooms will make a
total of thirty at the disposal of Prin-
cipal Katz Thirty teachers are
counted upon TO start the year, allot-
ing one room to each teacher.
To fill the thirty rooms and take
the attention of thirty teachers, Prin-
cipal Katz expected $50 pupils to en-
roll within the first week of school.
The probable total at the end of the
first month is estimated at seven hun
dred.
one hundred and fifty classes will be
held each day. each of them being 40
minutes in length. Schedule of the
classes will be completed after en-
rollment is made, 1t is probable that
the assembly hall in the high school
building will not be large enough to
serve as study hall. Two other rooms
will be used to take care of the over
flow. Assemblies of the student body
must be made out of the building. as
at the Boston Avenue Methodist
church last year
No new subjects will be offered in
the high school this year unless there
is a specific demand. Teaching Of
Tulsa daily world. [volume] (Tulsa, Indian Territory [Okla.]) 1905-1919, 1916-09-03

stereotype and commercial law will be
made if there is sufficient demand.
Work Of enrolling in the high school
will not be so strenuous n proposition
as in the elementary schools. All
Students who We're in the school last
year or who were graduated from the
grade schools in the spring were en-
rolled at that time. The present en-
rollment. held over from the spring,
is about five hundred.
All that will be required of those
students who enrolled in the spring
will be for them to call either in per-
son or by telephone at the high school
and verify their enrolment This will
be done Monday, September II, and
the week follo1ng.
The high school office will not be
open for enrolment until Septem-
Der II.
Enrolment in the grade schools
probably will not open until n few
days before the actual beginning of
classes. Estimates as to the number
of pupils who will enter the grade
schools is more difficult than in the
high school.
With the addition of 16 new tenn
porary buildings this summer there
are now PA schoolrooms in the en-
tire system. II is probable that seven
thousand pupils will be in these rooms
before the end of~~the first week.

SPEEDS CAMPAIGN
SETS STATE RECORD
Announcement of His Vie
tory for Nomination Sur
piises Even Friends.

Horace speed Of Tulsa sped away
recent primaries, and came under the
wire winner by four lengths in the
race for the nomination for justice of
the supreme court. The remarkable
thing about MIR. Speeds nomination
is the speedy manner in which IL was
accomplished and the silence with
which he worked.
The nomination came as a COM
piCte surprise TO the intimate friends
of Mr.. speed who contend that he
gained the honor without spending as
much as a postage stamp. In the
final count OF the Note1 IT was found
that the Tulsa attorney had received
almost as many votes As the other
candidates together.
Mr. Speed was the first United
states attorney Of oklahoma terri
tory. Hc was appointed frat 10y
President Harrison in 1890 and serN ed
until 1894. He was again appointed
by President Mckinley in 1909 and
served until 1904. He was reapp9inted
I'm 1906 by President RocseNelt.
Mr. Speed gained a large part of
his fame i'm his prosecution of the
perjury cases which arose In the
|
homcseckors I'm their anxiety to gain
desirable locations we're not careful
to make their allegations In regard
to their location and other matters
truthful and they consequently came
into the displeaSure OF Mr.. Speed
with hu; one exception in fifty cases
Ci perjury Mr. speed succeeded in Sc
uiug q conviction before the federal
| court
In this manner he broke up many
Of the practices which had been the
cause Of many OF the killings and
legal suits which Closged the courts
in the early days.
Mr. Speed is an old-timcr IN the
state lie started the practice OF
law at Guthrie in 1889 and came to
this city in 1914. He will be opposed
ON the Democratic ticket by Chief
Justice Matthew NJ Rare. who has
been rcnominated by the Democrat :

REPUBLICAN RALLY
A MAMMOTH AFFAIR
Fairbanks VIII he Principal Speaker,
While Teddy May Also be on
Hand.

Special to The World.
OKLAHOMA CITY, Sept I. - The
Republican state convention cam
paign opening rally, which is to be
held here on September -, will be
one of the biggest political gatherings
in the history Of this state, according
to reports reaching here. Some coun-
ty Chairmen report that their coun-
ties will send from four to ten times
the number OF representatives pro
vention will he called to order at .
o'clock, at which time there will be
solne speaking and state platform
will be adopted At night there will
he another large meeting at 730.
Charles w. Fairbanks of Indiana,
the Republican nominee for vice
president, will he the principal speak
er and 1t Is understood that other
speakers of note will be here. The
Republicans OF the state appear to be
clatcd over the fact that according
10 state Chairman Arthur II. Geisslei
who has just returned from New
York and Washington, the national
committee is going 10 send NUM-
fight to make oklahoma Republican.
In past campaigns the national COM
mittee has usually sent Cnly ono
speaker and for one day only. How
ever, this year the national organi-
zatiCn has promised to send such meu
as Senators Borah. Kenyon. Curtis,
Sherman, Harding, Clapp and Burkett
and congressman Roberts of NeN ada,
Miller Of Minnesota Rodenberg and
Rri:tCn of Illinois and former Con
grrssm2n Prouty of Iowa. If IL is
found that any one OF these cannot
cone then a speaker Of similar ability
and national standing is to be substi-
tuted.
There is 4 possibility that Colonel
Roosevelt viii also make speech i'm
Oklahoma during the campaign and
National Chairman Wilcox assured
Mr.. Gcisslcr that an earnest effort
viii be made to arrange the reXt itin-
erary of Mr.. Hughes so as to bring
him 20 this state, although the ma
tonal committee is delurcd with re-
quests FROM all over rnc country for
speeches by the Republican presl-
Dental nominee.
