NO Between Seasons Gap.

Judging from present conditions in
the mems clothing trade there will be no
gap between the winter and spring
manufacturing seasons. Heretofore.
there generally has been a lull in tho
market, extending from about the middle
of December until the midle Of january.
but the extraordinary demand for rrer-
chandise this season win eliminate this
let up in manufacturing activities. ~
Manufacturers are planning to de-
liver winter merchandise until the mid

Expen.ive Shoes in Demand.

BOSTON. Sept. 17.--Despite the srumb-
ling and complaining about high prices.
the public Ia demanding high grade. ex-
ponsive shoes. Orders received In the
local market indicate that there does
not appear to be the slightest dispo-
sition on the part Of the consumer to
accept solid, serviceable. staple lines Of
shoes.
The fact that there probably never
was n time when the shoe industry was
more In a mood to anticipate future re-
quirements is said by the Shoe and
Leather Reporter to be one of the many
contributory causes OF high and higher
prices. Manufacturers have advised
against early buying, but the trend b
strongly in that direction.
The hide and akin markets are
stronger and somewhat higher, the ten
dency being toward increasing firmness
in leather. Tanners have not found Il
necessary to reduce prices on standard
lines of high grade stock. Export sales
have been checked by the unfayorable
exchange situation. but the delay only
accentuates the foreign demand which
sooner or later must be satisfied.

OF their going into Sweden and Nor

AIR NOT SUBJECT TO TAXATION

L. NDER present conditions nearly every
Ill thing in the way of necessity or luxury Is
taxed. There is, however, one natural
|commodity which is not subject to taxation
land not even to sale and barter. 1t Is Doth
luxury and necessity. 1t is absolutely heces-
/ sary to the maintenance of life. 1t Is the most
abundant Of any of natures elements leI NIL
lions of people never get enough OF 1t.
The name of this thing is fresh air
In The Oklahoman Miss Edith Johnson has
signed editorial calling attention to the fact
that because fresh air is free we do not care for
| it particularly. 1t probably is fact that If 1t
were possible for some gigantic corporation to
corner the air and place it on sale, even at one
red cent for a billion cubic feet of atmosphere,
the public would arise and demand free fresh
air: and if the public failed to overcome the
air corporation mentioned, the result would
. be bolshevsm advanced to the nth degree and
beyond.
Fresh air is Gods most beneiicent gift to
the breathing world. Yet millions go through
. life fighting against fresh air They are afraid
of it, particularly at night. They have su-
perstitous, ignorant, pitiful notion that might
air" is perous, so they sleep in virtually air
. tight rooms all winter and even in hot weather
they are inclined to shut out as much of the
might air" as they can exclude without roast
ing to death.
Every man. woman and child is entitled to
a full share of the free fresh air. Only lgnor-
ance denies anybody his share-either his own
ignorance Or that of somebody else who has
the power to interfere with the fresh air sup
ply.
An educational campaign has been started
with view to eliminating the foul-aT flends
This is or should be everybody's drive"
against an evil which used to be wellnigh uni
|versal. In latter days the spread of general
knowledge has overcome much of the evil, but
there remain almost innumerable persons who
stick to the ignorant belief that fresh air, in
stead of being Gods greatest gift, is menace
| to health.
About the only thing we can get free nova
days is fresh air Why not help yourself to your
full share and demand for your children their
full share of this free necessity to life, liberty
and happiness?

take their rightful places in the work
for their state. and as we predicted In
the beginning of this article when they
go to these positions they will not go
as politicians but as workers, and they
will earn the salaries which go with
the office.
For this reason in many of the places
they will be superior to the men, for
with the latter, these offices are too
often merely q means to an end,
whereas with the majority of women,
the place will be their work, done to
earn their daily bread, and they viii,
bring to them n new vision of service
for the state and county, which in the
eyes of the men has long since grown
dim
Forty.eight women holding office in
Oklahoma, and the state still going for
ward peaceably; no roars of falling
masonry; no echoes of disaster. Few
citizens, in fact, realize the conditions.
Those pessimists who croaked about
women storming the citadel of politics,
have not been able to sense the tumult
which has precipitated 4S females into
Oklahoma offices. They have gone
there in very ladylike manner and
seem to be doing their work as well
as the men
Certainly it is fine thing for the
women themselves, but kind friends,
please keep in mind that when women
hold their fair share of the offices in
Oklahoma-the offices to which their
natures are fitted,-it will also be a
mighty fine thing for the state.

ELIMINATE ILLITERACY

THE actual percentage OF lllterates withih
/ the draft age was 24.6. In other words,
one out of every four could neither read
nor write Americans have prided themselves
on their educational system, but the draft
showed that no country had such staggering
percentage of aliens and illiterates. Being
able neither to read nor write, these illiterates
had little or no opportunity to know and appre-
ciate American principles, ideals or govern
ment.
Through the mammoth school system that
has been established overseas, the war depart
ment is doing its part to stamp out this litter
acy. Of an army of approximately one and
quarter million young men in France on April
Is. 100000 had been enrolled in the army
schools, 13O, 900 of them in the elementary
schools. where they were being taught the
rudiments. More than $4,000 who had been
taught the elementary principles were IN dl-
visiona or secondary schools.
Over here Secretary of the Interior Lane
had bill before the last congress proposing
compulsory instruction of all under "a in the
English language and other branches, lnclud-
ing American ideals and government. 1t dled
on the calendar because of the republican I'LL
buster in the last days of congress- An
awakened public will doubtless demand the
enactment of Secretary Lanes bill or some SIM
liar measure by the new congress.

show but 20 women office holders in the
state. a gain of more than double, you
see. Not SO bad for the first effort,
but rather than spread gloom we will
not dilate too much on that phase of
the situation. We will only use gentle
reminder; in the future no election in
the state of Oklahoma will pass off
peuceably without the women folks
taking some sort of part.
Women County Superintendents.
Let US start with the office OF county
superintendent OF schools, which is not
such u political plum as u path be
tween the school house and the world
outside. This office has for many years
been elible to women and just us the
first "ladylike" work which women were
allowed to take up after leaving home,
was school teaching, 50 the first semi
political job for women has been school
superintendent. For long time, it
has been thought that a perfect lady
could be school superintendent, but
beyond that,--,we shuddered. And so,
long before the war came and jolted
us out of our rut, and showed US Just
how important women We're in the
world, there had been county superin-
tendents of school in Oklahoma, and all
We're efficient and generally capable of
filling the office.
That was also long before the vote
was given to women. The sex was
honored with an office, but the woman
who ran was not allowed TO go to the
polls and vote for herself as her male
competitor undoubtedly voted Tor him
self While this office is not as sensible
a place to fill, according to the theory
of those who oppose women in public
places because of their narrowness of
vision their inability to organize and
their limited capacity for constructive
planning, as some others, the women
went right on making good in their
places. and numbers of them during
their tenures of office made statewide
names for themselves.
Notable among these is Anna Burks
Love, present superintendent of Okla

any farther than the office of treasurer,
but they have n good start. The Of
fices of judge, county attorney, sheriff
and assessor, rs well as the commits
sioners are still for men only" but the
time will not be long when the women
will invade these sacred places.
A little longer time it will take, for
it off any too well together, but as we
are gradually getting used to the wo-
man lawyer, might we not also In time
get accustomed to women as county
judges, or county attorneys? The place
of sheriff she will probably never wish
to fill, but as women and more women
take their places in the outside world
we may hope that law and order will
flourish more vigorously, and as ma
tional prohibition gets into the saddle,
we may live to see the day when the Of
flee of sheriff will be almost obsolete,
and instead of needing a couple of
deputies the poor old county sheriff
will be as insignificant as the city
weigher in the town of a thousand popu-
lation. 1t will be many years before
women will take their places in the
seats of the county commissioners, but
they will also come to that, we have
no doubt. Women will be as interested
in good roads and other Improvements
for their section as the men now are,
and might also be able to attend to
the payment of the county indebted
ness with as much fairness and honesty
as the men. However, we must not
look too far into the future.
is enough to say that the November
1918, election opened wide the doors
of opportunity to the women of the
state in more ways than one. AS in all
the things of life, there will always be
offices which the men are more fitted
to fill than the women and vice versa.
But as the women have taken their
place in the work of the church, the
schools and the home, so they will also

homa county, who was elected for her
fourth term last November and who has
given the utmost satisfaction in u
county which is the most densely popu-
lated in the state. She has made Il
name for herself in the educational cir
cles and it would be Il good thing for her
county to keep her indefinitely in this
position.
Another woman who has been doing
remarkably good work in this line, is
Mrs, Mildred Smith of Blaine county
who made such u good impression up
on the voters that she was returned to
office the only democrat elected in a
county which went otherwise over
whelmingly republican. She has been
instrumental i'll perfecting the consoli-
dation of a number of rural schools
and has been fortunate enough to make
the people in the districts see the need
of such consolidation. She is also re
sponsible for an innovation in her part
of the state, in starting a months free
school for eighth grades, at the county
seat, when all rural pupils are coached
free of charge for their high school eX.
aminations. AS some of the districts
are very poor and the advantages few,
there is no doubt that this month
does much for the youngsters both in
study and experience. Mrs. Smith un-
like many women, has Il gift for or
ganization, which is the secret of her
success in both her chosen efforts.
"a Hold This Office.
And this one unfeminine trait. is pre-
cisely the reason why the office of
county superintendents of school, is
often the round hole for the square
peg, for women. The power of per
focting organization and of combining
many small factions into one perfect
whole is not generally found in the
feminine makeup. perhaps because there
has ben little need for this in the life
of the acreage housewife. She who
possesses it is a rare woman and all
successful county superintendents are
blessed with it, or able to develop it
after they have been elected TO office.
