1t is difficult to tame the wild spirit
that was let loose the first day after
schol was out last spring. You can't
come and go as you please. You can't
play in the alley all day, or go fishing
in the creek. You can't even see the

FAST TAKERS FROM OKLAHOMA

GONE MEN TALK rapidly and constantly
~ and say nothing after all. Others talk SLOW
ly and seldom and say something now and then
Still others talk fast but do not try to talk all
the time, and when they do talk they say some
thing. We have in mind, as belonging to this
latter class, two eminent OklahomanS, one OF
whom halls from our beloved Ardmore. The
Washington Star introduces these two gentle
men to our special notice thus:
Oklahoma produces two of the fastest
takers in the national house of repre-
sentatves. The expert official stenogra-
piers of the lower body say that Repre-
sentatves Scott Ferris and Charley Car
ter-the latter with trace of Indian
blood in his veinS-can spin out words
faster than possibly anybody else in pub
lie life. Their dction and enunciation are
good however, and they are easier to re-
port stenographically than a slow-talking
speaker who gets his sentences all "balled
up" and has no terminal facilities when he
gets involved with nouns, adjectives, verbs
and adVerbs. The fellow who starts a SEN
tence and never puts verb in it is the pest
of reportorial experience
We were not aware until we read the fore
going that Scott and Charley are such fast pro-
positions. We knew, of course, that they are
active and useful congressman, but we did not
know that they are 50 swift of speech that they
are the outstanding figures amongst the Four
Hundred (plus) in the lower house at Washing
ton. That Messrs. Ferris and Carter-yea, even
our own Charley-are the fastest takers in the
house is an interesting thing to know. And it is
interesting and also satisfying to know, further,
that they do not try to do all the talking in
the house. they recognize the fact that there
are others.
The Congressional Record, which is one of
our most highly esteemed contemporaries, as
we have taken occasion heretofore to confess,
contains verbatim transcript of everything
that is said in congress. We find from its pages
that Ferris and Carter talk when they have
something to say, and when they have said it
they sit down and let somebody else have the
floor. Both Of them talk straight to the point
and do not chase the dictionary around in cir
cles. And when either Scott or Charley has
said his say you know what he has said and
why he has said it. This cannot be said of cer-
tain other members of the lower house. nor of
certain men in the august upper chamber.
When Scott Ferris goes to the senate in
1921 Charley Carter will be the champion fast
talker in the house, an honor which he seems to
divide now with the Lawton member Then
Oklahoma will have the double distinction of
sending to Washington the swiftest proposition
linguistically speaking, in both house and SEN
ate. There's nothing slow about Oklahoma
anyhow.
Now, boys and girls, get your tickets for
the Ferris wheel!
