WHEN HE GETS A CHANGE.

Just by way of illustrating the strong sentiment for votes for Okla homa women, the Chickasha, Grady county, Express, says editorially:
 "Here we wish to renew our sugges- tions to the legislature to waste no time with the discussion of the suf- frage question. Public sentiment has reached point where a vote on the necessary constitutional amendment is demanded and the lawmakers should promptly submit it. Whatever the personal views of the legislators may be, they should have no hesitan- cy in passing the question up to the people for decision. Parenthetically we propose to vote ives" on it the first time we get a chance"

LETS 1vOR1ES DECIDE FATE.
Young Hartman Loses Game, and En-
 lists in Marine Corps.

Superior, Wis, Jan. 27.--Letting the elusive worries in a fifteen-ball pool game decide his inclination to follow a military career, James Taylor Hart man lost the game and immediately enlisted in the United States marine corps, emulating the hero of "Under Two Flags" who was willing to let the toss of a coin determine his ale glance to either France or their en- emy. .,
 The young man passed an excellent examination at the local recruiting station, but could not make up his mind to enlist before trying this orig inal way of deciding once and for all to follow the fortunes of the "soldiers of the sea-"
 Hartman, who takes an optimistic view of life, despite his fatalistic be- liefs, left today for the marines train ing station at Mare Island, Cal, fully convinced that the gods of chance are the wisest counsels.

Pet Animals Sold for Charity.

In these days, when nearly every body in Britain is giving up something to the cause of the war, pet animals have played prominent part as a form of war charity. People have giv en their dogs and cats to charitable institutions to be auctioned off to raise money for wounded soldiers. So many unstable pets have been offered as to make them burden to the animal protection societies. At recent sale many of the cats and dogs were so old, decrepit and dirty that no bids could be obtained for them, that they were handed over to the societies to be put to death by gas.
