CHlCKASHA MUST CONE ALIVE

icved him when the genuine animal
showed up. Well, it has been some
thing like that in the case of the Ce.
ment oil field. For years we have
been hearing the cry, "ausher, aush.
err" etc, only to have our hopes
crushed when the truth became
known, till many have become skep-
ticaI about the whole thing. How
ever, unless a number of apparently
reliable witnesses are to be discredt-
ed 1t appears that at last there is
real oil we'll some twenty miles
southwest of chickasha.
For several months important de-
Velopments in the Cement field have
been anticipated and chickasha has
been urged to prepare herself TO reap
the benefits that would result there
from. Particularly has the necessity
for a good road from Chickasha 70
Cement been stressed. However,
with the wolf at our door, we are
still unprepared to take advantage Of
the opportunities that are open to US.
Now the situation that has arisen IS
one that calls for instant action. We

Another thing that demands
prompt attention at the hands of our

FATHER

Used to wonder just why father
Never had much time for play
Used to wonder why he'd rather
Work each minute of the day.
Used to wonder why he never
Loafed along the road and shirked;
Can't recall time whenever
Father played while others worked
Father didn't dress in fashion,
Sort of hated clothing new,
Style with him was not Il passion,
He had other things in view.
Boys are blind to much that's going
On about 'em day by day,
And had no way of knowing
What became of fathers pay,
All | knew was when ! needed
Shoes | got EN- on the spot;
Everything for which | pleaded
Somehow father always got.
Wondered, season after season,
Why he never took a rest;
And that might be the reason
That | never eycl guessed
Father set Il store on knowledge,
If he'd lived to have his way
He'd have sent-me off to college
And the bills been glad to pay
That | know was his ambition;
Now and then he used to say
He'd have done this earthly mission !
On my graduation day
Saw his cheeks were getting paler |
Didn't understand just why,
Saw his body growing Trailer
Then at last | saw him die
Rest has comet his tasks are ended,
Calm was written on his brow;
Fathers life was big and splendid
And | understand it now

GETS 81 FOR CEREMONY
Judge viii Not Spend Wedding Foes
Before He Gets Them.

Justice of the Peace John Pollock
will be careful how he spends his we'd
ding fees before he gets them. While
the judge was enjoying a cigar and a
good book in his library at home the
telephone bell rang.
"Hello, judge, this is Mr.. Blank, +"
said a voice, naming a prominent Ok
lahoma oil man. 81 am at the Balti-
more hotel and want to get married.
I'm in a hurry. Can you come down
right away?"
With visions of fat fee the Sdge
promised. He called a taxi, and hm-
ried to the hotel The fare was 81 30.
After the ceremony the groom called
him aside and said:
"Thanks. judge, here's your fee" He
handed the astonshed jurist a bright
silver dollar.

great activity in that field and Dun.
can is already busy Several supply
houses, it is said, are being started
there. The Cement field is almost
as close to Duncan as it is to Chick
asha and the road from that place is
better than the one from Chickasha.
1t should be plain to anybody that
Chickasha stands to lose out on the
whole deal unless these matters are
attended to at once. 1t is the one
big opportunity that has come to US
in years and probably will be the big
gest we shall ever have. Unless we
come alive and do something at once,
chickasha is doomed to be numbered
among the towns that missed their
big chance.
