ADA, Okla, Nov. l5.-In order to
know Just what every man in Ponto-
toe county does toward winning the
war and just how he feels toward the
government of the United States in
this conflict the county council of de-
fense is planning to employ a secre-
tary to devote his entire time to the

his activity in raising money and other
such matters as may be of value from
time to time or even after the war
Will be accurately recorded.
Pontotoc county has been successful
in raising her quota for all purposes.
except a small shortage I'm the Red
Cross campaign. Most of the dona-
tions and work, however, have fallen
upon comparatively few individu ps.
These individuals are wiling to Keep
on carrying the most of the burden,
but the mass Of the people say that
is not the way to do the matter.
The majority Of the men about Ada
believe the war may go on for years
and that buying Liberty bonds and
donating TO the various organizations
must be continued at frequent inter
walls. To know what to expect and
what every person ought to give, it is
necessary to have correct informa-
ton about every person. The card
system will keep record Of this.
one of the main duties of the secre-
tary also will be to get information
about ones attitude towards the gov
ernment. BY getting every mans ac-
tivity either for or against the matters
the government is asking for down in
black and white, it will not be so hard
to find where person stands.
Women, too, may be included in the
system, tho this has not been decided.

DOES "pRIMARN" MEAN
"IMPORTANT"?

Farmers of the Pacific Northwest
who have been expecting to receive a
minimum price of two dollars a
bushel for their 1918 crop, may have
been counting their chickens before
they are Matched. When the bill fix
ing minimum price for the 1918
crop was passed by congress, it was
pointed out that the definition of the
points where the two-dollar price was
to apply was not clear, the words
primary interior points, being in
definite and susceptible of being con-
strued in different ways. The grow
ers construed it to mean the first
point at which the wheat was deliv-
cred. The u. S. Food Administration
has put an entirely different con-
struction on the meaning of the
words, according to a circular issued
the latter part of Novem Der. This
circular reads as follows:
The term primary interior
points, as used in the grain trade.
and more recently in published state
ments of the u. S. Food Administra-
ton, includes IL important markets.
Arranged alphabetically they are
Buffalo, Chicago, Detroit, Duluth, In
dianapolis, Kansas City, Milwaukee,
Minneapolis. Omaha, Peoria, St.
Louis and Toledo.
" Primary should not be CON
strued to mean the first or the home
market. 1t refers rather to the in
terror grain points of chief import
ance as listed"
Did congress intend to fix Omaha
as the primary interior point at
which the minimum price of 50 will
be paid for the wheat of Idaho, Ore
gon and Washington? If the inter
, probation placed on the meaning of
the bill by the Food Administration
stands, the minimum price received
for the 1918 wheat crop of the north
western states will be lot nearer
$3.50 than 5000 a bushel.
This is a very important matter
and demands prompt and vigorous
action The Interpretation placed
upon the meaning of primary in
terio~ points by the Food Admins
trat-on must be challenged and a de-
mand made upon the members OF
| congress to state clearly whether they
intended TO provide that the wheat
or this section must be shipped 1900
miles or more TO reach a primary in
terror point, where the minimum
price of $500 per bushel applies
Primary does not spell import
ant and it is not reasonable to sup
pose that congress meant that il
should. Let's find out anyhow.

A SCHOOL FOR VICE

In the daily papers a few days ago
it was announced that the gentlemen
who have secured concessions for
places of amusement at Camp Lewis
are planning to operate dancing
pavilion with floor space large
enough to accommodate several
thousand couples and are figuring
upon employing thousands of girls at
SIS per week to act as partners for
the soldiers, Ten cents is to be
charged for each dance and any girl
who can earn over SIS per week is to
be allowed to retain the surplus. 1t
1t stated that all the girls will live
in one mammoth hotel where they
Will have to report early every night
and will be kept under strict super
vision by responsible chaperons. 1t
is further stated that this place of
amusement will be operated under
the auspices of the Y. w. c. A.
II there is any truth in the story
it should and will arouse the indig-
nant opposition and vigorous protest
OF the fathers and mothers who have
given their sons to the service OF
their country, demanding only that
they be given reasonable comforts
and as much protection as possible
against immoral influences.
This plan of providing the soldiers
with hired dancing partners would
be wholly demoralizing. The kind of
girls who would accept this kind of
employment are not the kind who
would have good influence over the
soldiers. The kind of exercise af-
forded by the modern dances would
not be conducive to improving the
physical or moral status of the sol
diers. 1t would be utterly impos-
slble to watch and regulate the ac-
uons of several thousand couples
dancing at the same time and the
dancing pavilion would be a training
school for the incubation of vicious
thoughts and actions.
The Y. w c. A. and the state and
national officials can not afford to
De implicated in any way with such
project and should emphatieally
repudiate any connection with il.

4 SIGNIFICANT BATTLE

OF all the battles now raging in

the bright little Red Cross Christmas
seals against the greatest foe of man
kind tuberculosis the most sig
nificant. 1t is a kind of David and
Goliath combat, in which the once
despised little penny is the ammuni-
ton. The splendid thing is that no
previous experience is necessary to
join the forces of the army against
the Great White Plague. Just a
wire, sent collect, to the Washington
Association, 916 Cobb Bldg, Seattle,
Will bring to your hand Red Cross
seals which through the alchemy of
human sympathy can be changed in
to silver and gold so that the boys
returning from overseas with the
disease need not be obliged to eX-
pose their fGmilies, but may have
sanatoria and nurses awaiting them.
