fcrrcd With Towns Business Men.

Special 10 The World
MIAMI, Okla, Aug 2l.-Miami
citizens are now working on the prom
osiuon OF obtaining the State school
OF Mines from Wilburton and having
them located At Miami. Miami is the
ideal location for the school as the
Miami district is one OF the largest
ana richest mining districts in the
United States and is daily opening
up new fields. Hon. Lynn Glover.
president of the Oklahoma School of
Mines, was in Miami comforting with
Miami business men ana looking over
the Miami field. The legislature
seems to be willing to discontinue
the school at Wilburton and made no
appropriations for the school AT their
last session and the plan is now to
reopen the matter and have the school
located at Miami which is the logical
place for the school to be located.

The "why" Of tho swaqQer Stick.

These cute little "swagger sticks"
that officers in uniform are carrying on
the street are the reverse of military
In their appearance, says the Boston
Transcript. Odd little affairs, some
times not more than a foot and q half
long and more suggestive Of effemi-
macy than of masculine swagger. The
swagger stick. as nearly as its origin
can be traced, came from England,
where. in days Of piping peace, the
soldiers very tight dress uniform
made 1t almost impossible for him to
dispose Of his hands when walking
about of duty, and it apparently be-
came necessary for him to have some
thing to carry and twirl. In England
the private soldier carries swagger
stick as we'll as the officer. They are
incongruous with khaki. But put q
tight. red tunic on a man and a gay
little pill-bOx on the side of his head.
and the stick becomes logical enough.
However, swagger sticks are not car
ried in the trenches.

Making Change by Electricity.

A newly patented system for recefv-
ing coins has just been put on the mar
ket in New York. This system is in
tended for use in hotels and apart
ment houses. 1t is designed to per-
nit the occupant of Il room or apart
ment to pay for small purchases which
come to the downstairs office without

room there is u box containing receiv-

Dimes quarters and half dollars. Each

Is automatically recorded at the CEN

The Reader.

The gift of reading is not very com.
mon nor very generally understood.
It consists, first Of all, in vast intel
lectual endowment-a free grace, !
find I must call it-by which man
rises to understand that he is not
punctually right, nor those from whom
he differs absolutely wrong. He may
hold dogmas, he may hold them pas
siOnately; and he may know that 9TH
ers hold them but coldly, or hold them
differently, or hold them not ut all.
Well, If he has the gift of reading.
these others will be full of meat for
him. They will see the other side Of
propositions and the other side of vir-
tues. He need not change his dogma
for that, he may change his reading
of that dogma, and he must supple-
ment and correct his deductions from
It, A human truth, which is always
very much a lie, hides as much of life
as it displays. 1t is men who hold
another truth, or aus it seems to US,
perhaps, dangerous lie, who can ex-
tend our restricted field of knowledge,
and rouse our drowsy consciences.
Something that seems quite new, or
that seems insolcn,ly false or danger
GUS, is the test of n reader If he
tries to see what it means, What truth
excuses it, he has the gift, and let
him read. If he is hurt or offended,
or eXclaims upon his authors folly,
he had better take to the daily pa
pers; he will never be u reader.-Rob-
ert Louis Stevenson.

occasion at vtcarage, after the eve
