BAETLESNILLE, OKLA, Nov. "A.
-Building of a new railroad bys the
santa Fe company from owen. Okla,
TO Pawhuska. the capital OF the Usage
nation. has revived the talk of an
east and west railroad to extend from
some point in the western part of the
state, says Enid or Woodward. through
to northeast Oklahoma, with Miami as
possible eastern terminal point. This
talk is not only being revived in Bar
tlesVllle but in many towns and cities
along the proposed route.
As a basis for the arguments for
building a competing line with the
Snsta Fe 1t is pointed out that lines
operating in this section as we'll as
In the western part of the state will
not stand by and watch the Santa Fe
grab all OF the freight and passenger
traffic in the great Usage country
which will surely follow the compile
tion of this line. IT will open up one
of the richest oil and agricultural sec
tions in the state. The Usage country
as an oil and agricultural section is
yet in its infancy; there will he some
big development work in the
Usage IN the next few years. Already
stakes have been driven for new towns
in northeast Usage county.

Mothers Doll Story
Jan and Hanska

Jan rubbed his eyes and looked out
Of the nursery window. He wore black
velvet trousers and a blue silk shirt.
His hair was yellow silk thread, and
once he had lived In Poland.
"Hanska.' he whispered. "Hanskar'
OF course he was calling his small
sister, who was not yet awake. Hanska
was always dressed in a red velvet
skirt and>a white waist with a little
shawl over her shoulders. 1t seems
very odd for dolls not to have any
dolls, and In wartimes. you know, al
most everybody has to get along with
out much.
Hanska rubbed her eyes, too, and
woke up. When she saw the strange
room, with lots of calico dogs and
worsted cats all sitting In row. she
just jumped right at Jan. and together
they cried bit because they were not
in Poland.
What do you think she will be lIke?'
whispered Jan.
"Who knOws?" walled Hanska.
Just then the nursery door opened
and In trudged lovely little girl with
blue eyes. brown curls and very pink
cheeks.
"Oh, mamma" she cried. how beau
tiful my Jan and Hanska are! l want
to take them to breakfast with me. and
then want to take them out to dig In
the snowv'
So you see that the little girl who
adopted the small Poles planned to

Mothers Doll Story
The Kittens Vacation

Mother Cat was very busy mornings
getting her children up to go to school.
In the winter time. you know. every
body hates to get up early.
These kittens were rag babies. They
were made Of gingham. and the Oldest
boy, Jimmie. had to lead Dora and the
baby. Ted, to school.
1t is hard work to lead two frisky
kittens who want to run and play In
the snow. So Jimmy often had hard
time of 1t helping his mothers family
to get a good education.
One day there came to the kittens
school a strange rag doll Of kitten
whose paws were dirty. The cat
teacher made him go out and wash his
paws. but this did little good. For all
the front Of his Bingham blouse was
streaked with the egg he had eate,
for breakfast. He was really very
soiled kitten.
Then one day something dreadful
happened. Jimmy. Dora and Ted all
had a sore throat When their mother
felt of their pulses she was frightened
to find they had fever. So she put
them all to bed in the haymow and
sent for the cat doctor, who said that
they had all caught measles from some
unclean kitten in school
So Jimmy had good vacation from
leading the risky little ones SO far
each morning.
