additional capital can be made to
feel secure, and is guaranteed fan
and just treatment, we need not ex-
pect that develODment which would
otherwise be ours for the asking.
The opening and development OF
our great resources will bring to
our state large numbers of intelli-
gent men of high-wage earning ca
pacity who will build homes and
make markets for the farmers pro-
ducts, and otherwise assist in the
upbuilding OF this commonwealth,
and to me it seems a short-sighted
and foolish policy to place obsta-
cles in the way OF these industries,
especially in view OF the untold
benefit that would accrue to our
citizenship and the increased rev
enue to the state and the various
municipalities.

Rightly administered and backed
by an intelligent public opinion,

generous in finding Jobs Tor these
men in war work, and to large
degree has taken over the work OF
the state in the matter OF employ
ment agencies, and is yet anxious
to continue its aid in meeting the
conditions of rehabilitation. How
ever, it is unnatural for us to eX-
pect the federal government to con-
tinue its fostering care to the same

fore the end OF the war, To my
mind no problem is of greater in

enable us to absorb and take care

ties offered and the advantages
possessed, must be one OF the most
urgent OF the many duties that will
devolve upon the executive and
legislative branches of the state.
Oklahoma has been one of the
most progressive OF the states in
making provisions in its constitu-
ton and laws for the protection
and safeguarding Of the rights and
interests OF labor. We should take
no backward step in legislation al
fecting the interests OF labor, and
should give willing and patient
heed to its reasonable demands.
Agriculture, and its kindred arts,

the state, and can pledge my most
active efforts to the encouragement

Passing Of the Melodlons Mule

Passing Of the Melodious Mule.
By operating on a mule scientists
have succeeded in making him voice
less.-News Item.
A few can touch the magic string,
And noisy Fame is proud to win
them,
Alas for them who never sing,
But die with all their music in
them!
Oliver Wendell Holmes.
How often as the dusk drew near
And yagrant breezes stirred the
pool,
We've paused beside the path to hear
The evening carol of the mule.
A simple and unstudied strain,
As from a heart that overfowed,
1t rose and fell and rose again,
And died in echoes down the road.
But science with its ruthless knife,
These vibrant cords has learned to
sever;
That song that spoke the joy of life
In zigzag bars is stilled forever.
A kindly and impulsive brute
In silence must pursue his ways,
The song upon his lips is mute,
And all his days are brayless days.
Now, science may be right of course,
Perhaps the mule is no musician,
And merely brayed til he was hoarse
To crafty a false ambition.
Perhaps the Muses. passed him by,
Caruso's genius may have missed
him;
And yet it's sad that he must die
With all that music in his system!

SIX MONTHS TO PAY.

The Victory Liberty Loan is here.
1t is the best bargain of all of
America stupendous war security
issues. That financiers and econ
omists agree upon. 1t is also the
last of the Liberty Loans.
The loan is for $4,500, 900, 900
supported by notes carrying AZ
percent interest and liberal tax ex-
emption features. These are con-
vertable into notes bearing 81 per
cent interest virtually free of taxa
tion. The first will be more valuable
to the poor man. The rich man will
buy the second. Both series mature
in 1928 but the Government has the
privilege of calling them in, in 1922.
The early maturity of these notes
makes them priced investment.
In order to get wide distribution
of the Victory Loan among the rank
and file of Americans-in order to
get these notes into the humblest
homes OF America, the Government
will sell them on time. Tho man who
buys Victory Note will have six
months to pay for it. In other words
the Government does not want the
banks to take the Loan even if the
banks could.
Six months to pay! Think of the
years these boys of ours who have
come back without legs or arms or
eyes, are going to pay. Is there a
man among us who calls himself an
American who cannot take his share
of this Loan under these terms? Can
that man face these armless and
legless fellows and toll them why he
is not taking his share?
If the war has done one thing
for this community is has made 1t
American, heart and soul. 1t is
going to stay American.
The test of that Americanism is
it's record in the Victory Loan.
Men and Women! This is the last
Liberty Loan. Let's stand shoulder
to shoulder-Americans all-and
finish this war job that those who
died shall not have died in vain,

three world records at one time; she
has the greatest record of the breed.

Oregon bred; she owns IL of the 40
highest record cows of the breed
3O%o she stands third with the
