A REQUEST has been made by the army officers in
- command at Camp Bowie cease publication Of the
news pertaining to movements ot troops from Oklahoma
the camp that is located Fort Worth The request
for the purpose OF protecting Oklahoma boys while
travelling on railroad from this state to the camp,
and the request will be observed by every patriotic publ
cation in Oklahoma.
All of us feel a personal interest in every American
soldier and there will be general response aid in safely
transporting the soldier boys from points of enlistment, to
training camps 1t is known that hostile interests
work in the United States TO cripple the military forces.
The action taken by the Texas officers is for the purpose
OF preventing foes from dynamtng bridges wrcckng
rails which military trains will pass
II the movements of troops kept secret it will be
difficult for enemies OF the government TO loosen rails
blow up bridges. II information of travel should
be given to the public through newspapers the lives OF
our boys would be hazarded by who work only in
the dark and who would no, hesitate to help the prusian
by dtchng train carrying the boys from Oklahoma
The request OF the army officers will be observed in this

ABUSING THE NATIONAL ANTHEM.

IN OF the leading hotels OF Oklahoma City theso
chestra has the habit Of bursting into the strains of the
national anthem just about the time the dining guests
in the middle Of a mouhiul OF meat
While the playing of the Star Spanged Banner" at any
and all times patriotic and should be given considera
ton il is undgnfcd and dsconcertng say the least
TO roomiu OF dinner guests scramble up from the
table with napkins in her hands others with linen
under their chins chewing food attempting to dcpor
themselves Loyalty and with dignity against unsurmount
able odds
We give too little consideration to the thought behind
the music of our national air Too few Of II, know more
than the words of stanza but the Times is Of the
opinion that the playing OF the anthem IN the midst OF
dinner people to grumhc about their ice cream
melting than it prompts mep to think about noble things
Every public gathering should feature the national air
Every formal occasion ought to bc blessed by It's solemn
strains and every man woman and child should stand
attention thoughtful and impressed during the ceremony
The point is that there is place for everything The
routine meal in dining room is the place the time
for the unheralded and unexpected event,
