Bryan County
Bar Endorses

One night last week the lawyers
OF Bryan county met in an enthusi-
astic session in the offices of Utter
back 4 Macdonald and reorganized,
placing the institution on a sound
OASIS, The following Officers were
selected. to begin work at once: J.
V. Connell. president; W. s. Muir
phy, vice president, and J. X. Han
nah, secretary.
1t Is planned to have regular
monthly meetings during the coming
year, at which times there will be
ater-dinner talks on matters OF in
terest to lawyers. and occasional
speeches by prominent attorneys and
)urists from over the State. An en-
tertainment committee was selected
to prepare for a smoker to be held in
Durant the night OF August s, and
II the plans of the committee work
out as expected, this will be an event
long to be remembered. Practically
every attorney in Bryan county has
signed the roll Of membership and
has begun active work in the interest
of the association.
One of the most important actions
OF the association during the meet
Ing Tuesday night was a unanimous
endorsement Of Governor r. L. Will
liams as candidate for the United
States District Judgship OF the East
ern District OF Oklahoma. to succeed
Judge Campbell. whose resignation
will become effective September l.
The Bar Association realized that no
man could be found in Oklahoma so
we'll qualified to fill this important
position as the Governor, and did
not hesitate in forwarding strong
endorsement.
An executive committee consisting
OF j. T. Mcintosh. w. F. Semple. w.
E. Ctterback, c. E. McPherren, and
c. c. Parker. was selected to further
the best interests Of the organization.
The Bryan County Bar Association
Is one Of the strongest in the State,
but for some reason had not been as
we'll organized as 1t should have
been. The lawyers have been talk
ing OF reorganizing for some time.
but no definite action was taken until
this meeting. 1t is predicted that
the standard of the profession in
Bryan county will be raised to a
higher plane than ever before. and
that the professional feeling among
the lawyers will be greatly promoted.

TRUE TO FORM.

The Hun is running true
to form in his war policy on
the Western front. The
Amiens offensive ceased on
ly because. exhaustion made
it positively necessary to
take time to rest and reorg-
anize; then came the Marne
drive.
Now, the dispatches say, q
period Of calm is expected.
while the Germans get ready
for another tremendous at
tack.
The daily morning oasis., 1918-06-07

The German knows but
one theoryiof war, and that
is to map out a plan of cam
paign the enemy, and push
its execution with unswerv-
! ing energy and overpower-
mig force.
Foch, who is probably the
foremost exponent Of the op-
posite school of military
policy, believes in a fabian
theory of warfare letting
the enemy develop his plans,
checkmate them, and wait
for an opportune time to de-
eide with lightning rapidity
on the stroke that will be de-
cisive.
Every development on the
western front is explainable
when these two theories of
the opposing leaders is taken
into consideration. The
Germans are battering them
selves to pieces, just as was
predicted months ago, in
what has thus far proved a
vain effort to smash a way
through the allied lines.
Foch, alertly watching,
has successfully met every
attack, and stopped it, with
the least possible loss of men
and the least possible drain
upon his resources of reserv-
es. He knows that there is
an absolute limit to the re-
serves Of the enemy, while
with America at his back he
has comparatively limitless
supplies Of reserves.
Germany will cease to
strike only when her power
to strike is gone-when her
reserves are exhausted.
Foch, then, with fresh leg
ions saved for just that oc-
casion, will launch against
the enemy an attack which
will sweep his exhausted
battalions back over the
ground he has so fruitlessly
sacrificed the flower of Ger
many's manhood to win.
Expert military men are
today figuring just when
Germany will reach the
point of exhaustion indicat-
ed. Foch gets this inform
alton, and he probably
knows today quite accurately
when the turn of the tide
may be expected.
And when it comes, the
troops of America will be
in The van of the allied forces
that will chase the Hun even
into the streets of Berlin.

Get on intimate terms

Get on intimate terms
with the butchers delivery
boy, the grocer's driver, the
repair man for the water de-
partment, the various work
ing people who serve them
in their homes Yes, and
their house servants. You'll
learn things about Mrs. x
and Mrs. Y and Mrs. z that
will give you more insight
into their real personality
than you could get in six
balls and eighteen bridge
parties.
Butter could not be
smoother than Mrs. z when
you meet her in society, but
the grocer's driver could tell
you how she deliberately
tries to find cause for report
ing him to his employer for
neglect of duty.
No saccharine product
could be sweeter than Mrs.
Y as you whirl to the lang
urous strains Of the orches-
ira. But the man who laid
her new carpet could tell you
how she insulted and badger
ed and abused him, appar-
emily with the sole purpose
Of eliciting a sharp retort
which she might tell the
manager Of his store, to dis
credit him.
Mrs. x may be noted for
her pleasant ways, but IT you
could get her house servants
to talk, they could give you
details Of how she boxed
Mary's ears, and swore-oh,
yes! she actually swore-at
the chauffeur because he
was two minutes late with
the car, and then told Mr.. X
theat Jean was ''insolent and
impudent'' because that pa
tient lad had dared to show
her his watch and say that
he thought he was on time.
Oh, yes! You may think
you know your social intim-
ates, but if you could don the
livery of servitude and wait
on them in some Of the vari-
Gus ways before mentioned,
YOU would know that in So
ciety they each and all wear
a mask that effetually con-
ceals their true natures from
you and all the rest.

WITH THE MASK OFF

No greater mistake could
