Towns and cities from coast to
coast welcomed the beginning OF the
campaign with distinct demonstra-
tons. Here in the capital street cars

Last night the fourth Tulsa fall
fashion show opened. Promptly at
1880 o'clock the big siren whistle on
the Public Service plant blew the rails
ing Of the curtains on windows ir-
restible. That is, they would have
been irresistible IL the wares so tempt
ingly displayed had been purchasabc.
The streets were clean as streets
could be. Swept clean as the new
brooms of the new street sweeper
could sweep. they were the peoples
own, for they were closed to all but
foot passengers. This feature added
immeasurably to the comfort to those
who had come out to see the show
and they used the streets as freely as
they did the sidewalks, thus relieving
the congested conditions which have
had to be tolerated in past years.
The Bands Were Out.
They swarmed the streets and side
walks and stopped as naively in the
street to listen to A. d. Young In
cornet solo or to the Tulsa band
which played before each decorated
window, as II they had been children
OF Italy or of a hoiiday-making South
American republic.
Fully five thousand persons were in
the streets in the limited shopping
area.
And they were repaid.
While some of the stores and shops
have not entered into the spirit Of
the fashion show, the most, and the
best OF them have. Department. hard
ware and furnitures; art and millinery
and shoe shops; candy kitchens. gro
Gerry stores and meat markets: sport
stores. mems clothiers, stationery
shops and music stores; jewelry firms,
drug stores and women's wearing
apparel establishments, all placed on
display goods and decorations which
would have been a credit to any city
In the land and which must have con-
vinced all beholders that the days of
going east to shop were indeed days
gone by.
Dreams Made Real.
Evening frocks, which were dreams
OF colors SO exquisitely blended that
they provoked a smile at the recol-
lection OF the days when American
looked to Germany for fast and deli
cate colors; furs, which displayed la
dernier cri in cut, color and pelt;
boots, hats. wells. gloves and all those
accessories which this season es-
pecially are accessories both before
and after the fact-of dress. And
furniture! Well my word. that fur
niture led many hesitating young
man on and over the heady brink
who'd no idea what was going to

Winter and Summer Sun.

The sun is nearer to the earth in
winter than 1t is in summer. 1t is not
distance that determines the amount of
heat that we get from the sun, but the
length Of time the sun Is above the
horizon and the direction In which his
rays strike us. In summer, although
much farther from us, the sun is daily
above the horizon much longer than
when he Is nearest, at the winter SOL
stice, and this continued action pro.
duces the summer heat. In addition to
this Is to be reckoned the fact that
in summer the force OF the suns rays
is more perpendicular to the earth's
surface. while In the winter they are
oblique. In the case Of the perpendicu
lar ray the heat stays, while in that of
the ObliQue ray 1t "glances off, so to
speak.

EASY TO ACQUIRE HABITS
Imperative Reason Why Every Person
Should Strive to Make Them Good,
Not Bad Ones.

A Philadelphia embezzler says that
he can remember the time in his life
when the owing of SO worried him.
But owing money may, like maLy 9TH
er things, become habit and scar the
conscience. He acquired the habit and
In late years felt no uneasiness in bOr-
rowing all the money he could get his
hands on, even without waiting for the
owners consent.
"How use doth breed habit in a
mani" Habit lies at the basis of all
our ordinary action. Everything that
we do repeatedly becomes easy and
habitual.
David Hume declared that the habit
of seeing the bright side of things is
worth more than thousand pounds q
year. Diligence, economy and perse-
verance are habits that carry life as
steadily to success as favoring winds
carry ship at sea. Depravity Is not
an inheritance, but a character formed
by persistent habits. And rectitude Is
only the confirmed habit Of doing what
Is right. The truth is not simply that
we may form habits; we must form
habits.
We cannot do or say or think or feel
anything without leaving definite
mark on the nervous organism which
more or less affects all succeeding &C.
ton or speech or thought or feeling
Could the young but realize how soon
they will become mere walking bundles
of habits, they would take care to have
those habits helpful instead Of harm
full.

~int:e Is curious superstition ex

s Crandall in Pets. ito the effect that
these birds not only require no wa
ter. but are better off without 1t. The
for.Adation for this absurd belief is not
hard to find. When parrots. particu.
larly young birds, are being brought
from the tropics they are customarily
fed on boiled corn or bread ana milk
What moisture they require is obtain
ed from the food. IL such birds are
suddenly given access to unlimited wa
ter the effect on the digestive organ is
dangerous and may result In the death
Of the bird. On the other hand, if the
parrot be given drink daily and then
the water be removed for short pc
Rod the bird will gradually become ac.
customed to It. Once this is accom-.
plished there is nothing to fear from

Historic Macao.

For many years the Portuguese,
through their rulership of Macao, held
control OF the foreign trade Of China.
for this was the only safe, friendly
port where foreign ships could anchor.
Here the merchantmen Of the Hon.
orable East India company, the tea
clipper ships from Boston and Salem
and the Dutch ships on their way to
Nagasaki stopped for supplies, repairs
and the news Of the world. St Fran
els Xavier lived here and from here
made his Intellectual efforts to reach
the mainland Of China. He is buried
on a nearby island. Here the first
treaty between the United States and
China was signed, and here American
diplomatic officials lived before they
were allowed on Chinese soil. 1t was
here that the first Chinese firecrackers
were purchased by American shippers
and brought home to start a custom
which has enlivened and endangered

Rechristening
Jane
By HI AKERs

Copyright. 1917. by w. g. Chapman.1
Il wish Carr you wouldn't call me
Janef''
my landl That was the name you
was christenedl"
The little old lady with the thin,
gray hair drawn very smoothly back
In small, tight knot at the back of
her head. and the lined face bearing
evidence Of the storm and stress of
many years of poverty, looked her sur
prise at the young, rather pretty girl
who had paused in the act of putting
on her hat before the small looking
glass, and turned upon her aunt with
some Impotence. The neighbors had
been telling her they thought Jane had
come back to the little village with
some high falutin notions" after her
visit to the city. but this seemed to
Aunt Carrilla Bean about the last
straw. -,~
swell, suppose I was christened
Jane, the middle name was Mabel, and
want to be called Mabel. That's what
they all called me at Aunt Carolyna's."
"Hm!'' shifted Carilla Bean. $50
she's gone and changed her name, too.
When married Joel, her name was
Carline. Seems awful queer to me
what's took folks these days. Even
sensible names amt good enough for
'em any more"
'The world has been moving, and
the people with it," said the girl. It's
only people who want to stagnate and
stick in the mud who object to new
ways"
"Well I never supposed was
sticking In the mud-but mebbe am"
sighed the little woman. She seemed
to be thinking hard, trying to draw up
an estimate Of herself, for she repeat
edly questioned: "Mebbe 1 am"
Jane Mabel was neither unfeeling
nor entirely selfish beyond the hui
man tincture of these things which is
always to be found In youth. The aver
age young human has not yet suffered
enough to think Of the hurt in heart.

"a Want to Be Called Mabel"

But Jane Mabel had some affection for
Aunt Carr, who had taken care Of
her ever since her parents died, when
she was little child, so she noticed
the look and tone of the other, and
said: swell, you know, aunty, it isn't
to be expected when you live here In
this little village year after year, you
would know what people are doing and
thinking out IN the big world, in great
cities, where you meet more people in
q day than you do here in year"
Aunt Carr's gentle gray eyes looked
slightly incredulous, and again she
said: "Mebbe. Mebbe." Then she
added: "But it's going to come hard
for me to call you Mabel after you
beln' brought up Jane I'm likely to
forget pretty often. And how are you
ever going to break in Dan1 JaynesT'
Jane Mabel turned rather flushed,
