was-burred and sheathed in rumpled
gray feathers from his hair TO his
heels. The sight and smell of him
scared the horses. There were tufts

which he had arrived.
Then came poor Purvis They had
just begun to apply the tar and feath-

the process. He had only a shaking
ruff of long feathers around his neck
They lifted the runaways into their

shouted. and turning to me added:

one o. those jackrabbits will have to
settle with me-"
''You brought it on yourself" I said.

OFFICE OF
FED. STATE
General Meeting Recommends
That Chamber of Commerce
Furnish Funds to Help
Office of Labor.

At meeting held last night at the
office of the Grady County Farm bu-
reau, recommendations were made
to the Chickasha Chamber of Com
merce that that body furnish $3.50
for the maitenance of the Federal
State employment office here, begin
ming May / and continuing to July
| when, it is believed federal funds
will be available for the support Of
the office.
The meeting was held with Mayor
S. c. Durbin presiding and was par
ticipated in by j. w Owens. county
agent, representatives of the Cham
ber of Commerce, the Farm bureau,
the business men, bankers and
trades council.
The session was called by Chas.
e. Day, superintendent of the Fed
eral-State office in this district. Mr.
Day acted in accordance with in
structions he received from the de-
partment at Washington
The necessity for local maintenance
Of the employment bureau was made
imperative, if the office is to con-
tinue, when Republican filibuster
in the national congress blocked the
passage Of appropriation bills, among
which was one for the support of the
federal-state offices over the nation
The sense Of the meeting was that
the local office be maintained start.
ing on May 1 and continuing for two
months. This, it was pointe dout,
would enable the organization that
has been perfected under the direc.
tion Of the federal-state office, to
supply men to handle the wheat har.
vest
The office is to close here next
Saturday, and if the Chamber OF
Commerce acts favorably on the rec.
concentrations made last night will
be opened May / at a location to be
named later.
