OKLAHOMA CITY, Sept. 17.-Wit-
nesscs, both men and women, repre-
senting oklahoma Citys society, bust
ness men, chauffeurs and laborers,
who had been summoned to testify
relative to roadhouse said to have
been conducted by Red" Cameron,
appeared in the Oklahoma county
district court today when the case in
which an injunction against the place
is being sought came up. Cameron
had announced several days ago,
when action against his place was
started, that he would have witnesses
from the social side of the citys life
testify as to the character of his
place.
A local newspaper man testified
that he had visited the Country inn
on one occasion; that he saw women
get out of an automobile but turn
out the lights and cover their faces
with wells so they could not be recog-
niZed He said in looking thru n
window he saw women dancing and
apparently stagger. He said he also
saw soldiers staggering.
The newspaper man was held
closely to his story. He was asked If
the staggering he saw was not really
the way the dancers performed some
of the new-style steps. The news
paper man admitted that he was not
authority on dancing. None of the
so called society folk was questioned
today.

LEAD PENCILS FROM FENCES
Manufacturers Are Replacing Cedar
Rails With Woven Wire.

Poor Aladdin was decidedly peeved
when his well meaning mother cA-
changed an old brass lamp she found
kicking about the house for brand
new shiny one. Naturally, since the
old lamp was worth many times as
much as the new one. as everyone
who has read Of Aladdin's lamp
knows.
Down in Tennessee-and in many
other localities now-they are ek-
changing brand new shiny wire fences
for disreputable old rail, zgzag Vir-
ginia fences which were laboriously
split and put up by honest sons of
toll generations ago. And the best
part Of II Is that no one objects to
the trSde. The people who give away
the brand new and expensive woven
wire fences are delighted to, take tnv
old rail fences in exchange and the
farmers are proud and happy to get
the wire fences, so everyone is glad.
The answer is lead pencils"
More than two years ago we had
stripped our cedar lands of practically
all the old growth, and since then Of
all the rest of the cedars, except the
mere saplings. Then the pencil man.
ufacturcrs started TO bring cedar from
abroad and then the war came along
the crowned heads of Europe should
worry about lead pencil shortage In
America--and II began to look as tho
lead pencils would become as costly as
eggs or coal or other commodities un-
I'll certain agents discovered that thru
out many sections of the country
there were miles and miles of the very
best sort Of cedar, thoroly dried and
seasoned. serving as fences along high
ways and between fields and pastures.
