In Pontotoc County.
From Ada News

1t was thought that the MacThwaite
gas well on the Floyd farm in Sec
ton 2S-4-6 would be brought in Sun
day. but the casing became unruly
and delayed the game for one or two
DAYS. The well may not be brought
in before Tuesday or Wednesday. The
flow of gas increased of its own ac'
cord from 100000 to between A.
100000 and 100000 feet. Many of
the oil men believe this will be one
of the strongest gassers in the field.
The Lewis we'll in section 29-3'4
is looking better as the drill goes
deeper. There as been a showing OF
both gas and Oil. Mr.. Lewis says
he may have some interesting deyel'
opments within a few days.
The Sunset Francis company has
ordered several large tanks for their
we'll in section 36-5-6, known as the
Tidewater. The casing has come IN
for drilling deeper. The owners did
not want to take any chance in case
they strike a flow that cannot be
stopped easily. The tanks will be
ready for instant use. If no oil at a
greater depth is found, the present
production will be utilized.
Activity in the local field increases
every day. Leases are chanslhs
hands slowly but at good prices
More locations are to be made II
the next few days and other parts oi
the county are to have tests.

CARING FOR VISITORS

There is but one way TO obtain an
opportunity of doing big things. That
one opportunity lies in being faithful
in doing little things. Ardmore at
this time does not aspire to be the
convention city of the state, although
some time it may be an important
convention center. It's only opportun-
ity to obtain that honor lies in its
willingness to care for the conyen'
tions that come here.
The pupils of Carter county will be
here in large numbers next Thursday,
Friday and Saturday, unless they
are kept away by the rain. SO many
are coming that it will be impossible
to house them IN the hotels of the
city. Ardmore's hotel room is pretty
we'll filed these days by the regular
trade that comes to the city, and it
does not take Il very big crowd TO
give them more than they can do.
So on this occasion, Ardmore people
must be depended upon TO open their
homes. This city can take care of
these children. and Ardmore will be
proud of the opportunity. Those who
come will be the leaders in their re-
spectiye schools They will be the
pupils who have done the best work,
and who are equipped to represent
their schools in music, defamation,
spelling, and on the athletic grounds.
They will be happy visitors, they will
bring the sunshine of youth into the
homes they enter, they will bring
courage on the eve of battle, and it
ought to be a pleasure to have these
children in the homes.
Supt. Thurston wants to know who
will offer rooms, and phone call &c
him will be a big favor to Ardmore

SOUTHWEST TRAIL BOOSTS
OKLAHOMA

Oklahoma is given splendid adver-
tising in the current number of The
Southwest Trail, a monthly magazine
published by the Rock Island lines.
The number is intended as a means
of interesting homeseekers in the
farming advantages of the state. 1t
is crammed with statistical forma'
ton, not only about crops, but also
about the mineral resources, espec-
tally oil and gas. The latter feature
will make it of interest TO investors
who have industrial development in
view.
Emphasis is laid upon oklahoma Is
farm educational advantages, there
being articles about the Agricultural
work of te United States department
college, and the work of the United
States department of agriculture
through county farm advisers. There
is also an article about the south
west American livestock show, the
company having sent the editor oi

THE misunderstood BOY

In her address before the Mothers
Congress held in Nashville last week
Mrs. Elizabeth Harrison called atten-
ton to the misunderstood boy.
Youth changes its indications
through heat of blood. The boy who
is on the verge of puberty must be
handled gently. He is fractions. 1t
is his formative stage. He is ap'
preaching the real functions of life.
He is quick to be impressed, and 1t
is the time when he can be easily
directed toward the right or toward
the wrong. A kindly expression of
patience may make a good man of
him: show of impatient neglect
may send him to the bad.
Family pride, through which boy
is forced to accept 4 wrong voca-
ton, the idea that money is the OBJ
iect of work, and the indifference of
parents in helping their sons select
proper vocation are the three great
obstacles to the success of young
Americans today.
Mrs. Harrison is president of the
National Kindergarten College of
Chicago, and is eminenty qualified
to express a sensible opinion on the
subject.

derstood boy has had his career ruin

ing.
Indifference in homes is charged
BY Mrs. Harrison to be the respon-
sible cause for the increase of youth

be made a study. Parents who eA'

should make character building par

Moved Quinlne Trees.

Sir Clements Robert Markham, ex
plorer, traveller, archeologist, who in,
troduced the cultivation of the quinine
yielding cinchona trees from Peru in
British India, an act of incalculable
value to the world at large. is now
eighty-fve years of age. For many
years he held the presidency of the
Royal Geographical society. His life
has been one of travel and adventure
beginning with the navy in 1874. He
served in the arctic expedition of 1850
1851, and the following year left the
navy. Then followed Journeys Of a
scientific nature to Peru and Abys
sinia, and in 1867 he became secretary
OF the India office. Many volumes OF
travels, history and of a general char
acter came from his pen, including

"choirs" of Symphony Orchestra.

Although the three "choirs" of a
symphony orchestra have been desig-
mated as the String" the brass"
and the "woodwind," such modifica-
tions have crept in since the days
when symphony orchestras were con-
ceived that the three classifications
have been found inadequate. Thus,
percussion instruments have been
added like the tympani while instru-
ments like cymbals and the Xylo-
phone have no classification what
ever. The harp, which is in reality a
stringed instrument, is not included
among the strings" which term be-
longs only to the instruments of the
violin family.
Also, of recent years the silver-fute
has superseded the wooden instru-
ment in many symphony orchestras.
although it is still classed among
the "woodwinds."
Josef Stransky, the conductor OF
the New York Philharmonic Orches-
ira, has found the silver flute so
, conducive to tonal balance with the
other members of the so-called wood
group (oboes, clarinets, and bassoons)
and its pure carrying quality so well
adapted to symphonic work that the
| three flutists of the Philharmonic
Orchestra have been equipped with
the metal instruments.

Mrs. Oliver Hartman enlivened
with an appropriate anecdote at the
Colony club in New York an argument
on domestic economy.
Il hope" she said, that there are
few men like Smith.
Smith got married. and the eve

But the second pay day Smith gave
his wife one dollar and kept S14 for

MRS. BRAY LEAD UNION
PRAYER MEETING TODAY
CONTINUED FROM PAGE oNE)

Of man. Man began TO pray when
he was first cast upon the sea of sin.
The Mohammedan prayer is earnest
DO you, when you pray, actually call
upon the name of the Lord? | doubt
if there is one here tonight but what
offers his prayer, or at least calls
upon the Lord. Some people pray
backwards, which is nothing snort of
profanity. Women often take the
name of the Lord in vain, when they
say. % Lord, o my Lord This is
nothing short of profanity and is a
bad example TO set before the chill
dren in your homes" The evangelist
here insisted that to call upon the
/ Lord, except in a reyerential and ear
nest way, is irreyerent and breaks
the commandment against profanity.
If all men failed to pray and to
call upon the name of the Lord, it
would not pay the Lord to wind up
this old world for another twenty
! four hours. Why create world like
! this, with all its wonders, with all
its beauty and with all its seasons,
! for a people who don't think enough
of the Creator to stop every day ana
| thank Him for it, and the many
blessings" Dr.. Williams insisted
that God wants us to thank Him for
our blessings and that He wants US
to commune with Him. He says
that people do pray and that what
we have is the answer to our pray
ers. 81 think | live in a world that
| has sovereign, one who rules. |
don't think we are here by chance
tonight. | think all these things are
answers to our prayers. You are
| here tonight because someone has
prayed for you, your pastor, your
friend, your mother, and it may be
| your mother who is now in Para
disc" The speaker declared that
we do not always know how our pray
ers are answered but that they are;
also. that we do not always know
that we act in answer to the prayers
of someone, but that we do.
DR.. Williams told a story of young
lady who was playing in light opera
She was stranded in certain town
where he later held a revival. She
had decided to quit'the opera and
had secured employment in the town
She saw an account of her mother
death in the paper. She then realized
how much she loved her mother. She
dropped into the union meeting being
held. DR.. Williams made the state
ment that he did not believe anyone
was there that night by chance, bu'
in answer to the prayer of someone
A note from the girl was passed tC
him, stating that she thought she was
there in answer to her mothers pray
ers. Il want you TO pray for me,
the note said. The prayer was OF
fered. Later she stayed in an after
meeting and was placed in charge o
a good personal worker. The mex
Sunday she gave her heart to God
Years after. when the evangelist tol(
the story in a big meeting in Chi
cago, the same girl came forward
after the discourse, and made her
self known to the evangelist. q"
