Getting Home

There are two parts TO every trip, the first
is setting out,
When every Joy seems far away and hid
in clouds OF doubt;
You hope in distant fields TO find tue
charms you yearn to know
Yet very strange the country is TO which
you're soon to go
And none can tell what waits for you
whom once you start 70 roam,
But sure and certain are the joys you u
find on. gering home.
l like the getting home the best I've trzv-
eled In my time
And met and chummed with friendly folk
in many a state and cline:
I've iourneyed far on pleasure bent, and
glad was ] to 20,
1t seemed TO me the distant sky with Joy
was al aElow.
But nothing / found off there had half
tho thrill In, store
As that glad day when | had turned my
face towards home once more.
There are 20 smiles as bright as those
that welcome me at night,
Ihere are no eyes as big and round and
gloriously bright
As those that shine for me at home and
never seem 10 change
Always in distant fields I've found the
strain OF being strange
And though earth's splendors l have seen,

The real Joy is getting back TO them l call

LIKELY TO APPROVE
GAS RATES INCREASE
Commissioner Campbell Russell In
dicatcs Company's Petition
Has Grounds.
Special TO The World

Special to The World
OKLAHOMA CITY. June THAT
the Oklahoma Natural Gas company
is entitled to some increase in rates
for gas furnished manufacturing
plants was indicated by Commission
er Campbell Russell this evening
when the case in which the Okla
homa Natural is asking that sub
stantial increases in rates be grant
ed for forty distributing Companies
throughout the state was finally
submitted to the corporation com
mission.
The application in which evidence
was submitted by the gas company
asked for minimum of 20 cents.
This would affect only industrial
users In the argument OF the case,
however, the gas company contcnded
that It would have to have rates OF
'25 cents minimum and 40 cents for
domestic consumption If extensions
costing s2,000,000 were to be made
by the company. No guarantee Of q
gas supply could be made without
the extensions. II was claimed.
In making his announcement thai
an Increase would be justified. com
| missioner Russell did not indicate
10 what extent 1t should be made.
The full order will probably not
be issued for several days. II Is
l.possible that following this the gas
company will ask for increases based
on returns of the general investment
or the whole property.
