Rains and high winds are sweep

to favorable weather which enabled
them to maintain the maximum trans

OkiahOmn Retailers to Hold State Session
in Chiekasha; Establish Clearing
HOnse; CheckUp Grahers

John Crib and Arthur Ersland re-
turned yesterday from Oklahoma City
where they attended a meeting of
the directors of the Oklahoma Busi.
ness mems association and secreta-
ries of the Retail Merchants associa-
ton of Oklahoma. 1t was decided to
hold the next convention in Chicka-
sha.
THE main feature of the state as
sociation is that central clearing
house will be maintained, Geo. A.
Mcdonald of Shawnee was chosen
manager" said Mr. Ersland today.
"The purpose Of this clearing house
is to receive information from all of
the local organizations over the state,
and again distribute it to all secre-
taries. Forgers, graft advertising
men, fake stock promoting schemes,
fake donation schemes, dead beats,
etc, will be taken care Of. To illus
trate, if forger gets by in Chicka
sha, a full description of the man and
his methods will be wired to the
clearing house manager, he in turn
will wire all secretaries over the
state. The result will be that when
he lands anywhere in Oklahoma he
will be promptly arrested The state
dues will be $11O per member per
year instead of So as heretofore.
"All associations reported an in
crease in membership since the war
started, which shows that the mer
chants are getting closer together,
and also that the associations are do
ing their bit in a patriotic way.
"Chickasha won over Enid in the
contest for the next convention.
which will be held in February. 1919;
the o. c. w. secured the convention
for Chickasha."
