You need not fear the Spanish in
%1uenza. If you think that you have
got it, come to the Langdon sanitor-
ium. The place where you can get
room and board and receive care and
treatment at a cost which is often
less than your regular doctor would
charge you for a visit. You can
travel for less than a dollar a mile,
the charge that he generally makes.
Furthermore. the alopaths acknow.
ledge that they have no specific
medicine against Spanish influenza.
So why should you call in a person
who admits that he cannot help you.

Do You Pay Rent?

Some people who rent from year to year try to JUS
tify their course with the argument that it's cheaper.
Still others content themselves by saying, "Oh we're so
unsettled no use for us to buy a home"
The answer to the first argument is this: that rent
money applied to the purchase price of a home will pay
for that home within from seven to ten years-and it will
be a home in the fullest sense-not merely a house.
To the second argument there is but oneTeply: Okla
homa City is a mighty good place to live. Conditions are
prosperous, city growing, plenty of room for expansion in
all lines of commercial and industrial enterprise. Why
be a rolling stone? Become a permanent part Of a city
filled with the best people on earth, if you really want to
Buy a home!

A VARIED WORK
Army Chaplains Have Many
Duties.
They Fight at Night and
Preach Next Day.

The work of an army chaplain does
not consist entirely of looking after
the spiritual welfare of the men of the
army, as is the general understanding
among the folks back home
The varied work of the chaplains
was demonstrated a few days ago
when Chaplains F. I. McMurray and
c. H. Bluefield put on a three-round
boxing bout on Saturday night and
the following Sunday morning both
appeared at the Y. M. G. A. and de-
livered their usual Sunday morning
sermon. Both preached with the
same punch" they used in the fistic
combat the night before. In the bout,
which was declared by the soldiers to
be one of the fastest bouts they ever
witnessed, Lieutenant McMurray was
given the decision. Enlisted men acted
as judges of the contest.
The activities of Lieutenant McMur-
ray. chaplain of the first detention
camp, during the four weeks he has
been in camp, include the building of
an airdome large enough to east all
OF the men of the regiment; the for
nation of a band, which is making
rapid progress: the organization of a
school for soldiers who are unable to
read, the enrolment of which now is
more than ESQ. Religious services are
held under the direction of the chap
lain in the two Hostess houses and the

Italian pilot, Billy Lang and others of
less prominence who have flirted with
death taking the treacherous turns
with open throttle.
Sheriff accompanied Moninna in the
250-mille classic over the Briar Cliff
course at Lowell in 1910, when the
daredevil "wop" captured first honors
in a British. Napier. He also rode
with Monjinna lat the big Vanderbilt
classic over the Sheepshead Bay classic
several years ago when Resta. Chew

He also CONDITIONED" Billy Lang's
A1len-Kingston machine that captured
nearly every hill climbing event en-
tered. The big Chadwick HILL
climber, considered one of the most
powerful cars ever made, was attended
by Sheriff while awaiting the beck OF
it's driver.
Sheriff has been in numerous spills
during his connection with the racing
game and has more than one scar OF
broken bone as mute evidence of his
many escapades. He is one. of those
kind who revels in thrills, which prob
ably explains his love for the game OF
speed. When the war is over, the
racing game may see one of it's favor

Chauffeur for General Wood
= Leads EventfuI Life.
Sergeant Sheriff Served Three
Years on Border.

When a big drab colored Cadillac
touring car. flying red flag orna-
mented with two white stars, rumbled
over the Golden Belt highway at a fair
speed, every uniformed man along the
route came to a halt and saluted the
occupants of the machine. They were
paying due respect to Major General
Leonard Wood, camp commander and
those who accompanied him. But they
knew little of the man at the wheel,
who probably was the only one who
did not return the salute.
Sergeant s. Sheriff, driver of the
generals gas wagon" has seen more
actual warfare than probably any 9TH
err enlisted man in camp. Not the
kind Of warfare that Is staged at the
training camps but the real dyed-in-
wool kind that sends thrill up and
down your spine. Sheriff spent three
years on the Mexican border and was
in the midst of it when Villas bandit
gang swooped down on the inha bitants
of Columbus, New Mexico, and killed a
score of Americans. As member
of the famous Sixth cavalry, Sheriff
was connected with the punitive expe-
dition that General Pershing led into
Mexico in an effort to bring the ma
RAIDERS to justice. Sheriff remained
on the border until 1917 when he was
pointed chauffeur for Major General
Allen. Following General Aliens

was retained as chauffeur for General
Wood.

YIN. CA. QUARTET HERE
Real Army Songs for Fair Visitors by
Funston Boys.

iFrOm Topeka State JOurnal.D
Visitors to the Kansas Free Fair
were entertained last night by a pro-
gram of real army songs by the Fun
ston Y. NJ. c. A. quartet composed Of
H. j. Schiller, Turner Wilson. F. D.
jackson and T. H. Ward, secretaries
Of the Funston Y. NJ. c. A., who spend
a great portion of their evenings in
entertaining the men in khaki.
The program was unique in that it
gave the people of Kansas an insight
into the class programs that are being
given each night for the entertainment
of the soldiers. Several patriotic
numbers were given, the feature
among which was 1.-The Americans
Come" This song pictured the story
Of a blind Frenchman who heard the
sound of marching troops and sent
his son to the window to see what was
going on. The son viewing thru the
window the American flag. told his
father of "O1d Glory" and of the COM
ing of the American soldiers.
The large crowd was greatly pleased
with the Funston program, as was evil
denced by the many rounds of ap-
plause. Even after the members of
the quartet left the fairgrounds their
many admirers were not satisfied and
requested that they sing on the street
car coming to town Several selec-
lions were given and the entertain
ment ended with big feed for the Y
men at one of the down town restaur-
ants.
