First Shot" of Typhoid
Serum Administered Here
Last Night in State
wide Campaign.

Yesterday evening between the
hours of 6:3O and $50, a total of 295
Chickasha people were given the first
shot" of anti-typhoid serum, in the
campaign being waged by DR.. A. r.
Lewis, state commissioner of health,
against typhoid fever over the state.
DR.. Lewis, himself, was here, and su-
peruteuded the giving of the "shots."
He was assisted by Drs. Downey,
Livermore, Cook Dawson, Ambristep
and Berry.
One week from today, those taking
the "shots" will report back to the
hospital at the same hours, between
G:3O and $3.50 and receive the second
shot" The third will be given a
week from that date, and all is done
free of charge.
1--WE have been greatly handicap
ned in the work because of the short
age of serum, said Glen Williams,
who accompanies DR.. Lewis in his
trips to various points in the state
during the campaign "The situation
is getting much better now however,
as we are getting about 1000 pack
ages of the serum a day now and
hope to be able to supply the demand.
"The success of this serum has
been proved by it's work among the
American soldiers and sailors during
the recent war The records show
that of the hundreds of thousands of
men inoculated with this serum only
about so died in the United States of
Gyphoid This disease has been prob
ably the greatest single ailment the
United States army officials have
had to fight In the Spanlsh-Amer-
ican war, more men died of fever
than were killed by Spanish bullets. "
DR.. Lewis and his assistants go to
LaWtOn today.

Congressman Believes Soldiers
Should Be Given Opportunity
Down Their Own Home;
Easy Plan
WILL OFFER THREE
AMENDMENTS TO ACT
Thinks Should Include Town
Property and Let Soldiers
Buy Land in Own State;
Fight Living Cost.

Three important issues will go to
bat in congress this month, declared
Scott Ferris congressman from this
district, who was in the city recently
These issues are: the reduction of
the cost Of living, the matter of pass
ing needed railroad legislation and
action on the Mondell soldiers land
bill now pending before congress.
Congressman Ferris averred that
the unrest caused by the high cost of
living is growing over the entire
country and that immediate action on
the part of congress is necessary He
said that Investigations of profiteer-
ing would be made,
81 hope to secure some needed
railroad legislation" asserted Con
gresham Ferris. q favor the return
of the railroads to the owners as soon
as arrangements can be made for
their return"
Mr.. Ferris will offer three amend.
ments to the Mondel soldiers land
bill which authorizes, first: the sec
retary Of the interior to purchase
large tracts of land in the severa!
states where it may be procurable;
second, employ former soldiers at liv-
ing wages to reduce the tracts to
state of cultivation, and third, sub
divide the tracts and sell them to
soldiers at actual cost allowing them
forty years to pay for them with in.
terest at per cent. 1t is intended un-
der this plan to build houses on the
land and make them habitable before
selling them to the soldiers.
The following amendments to the
Mondell bill will be offered by Mr..
Ferris
First, through the federal farm loan
bank, let soldiers buy an individual
farm in his own community and in
his own state as distinguished from
the soldier colony plan.
Second, Federal aid for soldiers
who desire to buy homes in towns
as well as in the rural communities.
These loans will be for 40 years, at
per cent interest.
Third, That every soldier, honor
ably discharged from the army of the
United States who applies to the sec
retary Of the interior and asserts that
he is without a home and that he de-
sires to acquire a home, and that he
believes he can acquire a home if
| the government will advance him one
thousands dollars if he further as
serts that he can pay the balance
and will live in the home for at
least five years, the government will
advance him the amount designated.
If the soldier lives in this home for
+ at least five years and pays the bal
ance as he will agree to do before
he can secure the loan, the one
thousand dollars becomes a bonus to
: the soldier and he win not be re-
quired to repay the government.
! Congressman Ferris said Secretary
Lane of the department of the in
terror had sent out 125,OOO cards to
returned soldiers and that IS. 900 were
returned bearing the information that
they would like to acquire a home
under the plan. Secretary Lane, the
potent promulgator of the soldiers'
land bill favors the adoption of the
three amendments to be offered by
Congressman Ferris.

retary of the Chickasha Chamber Of
Commerce, stated this morning.
AS one OF the first steps toward

here in September for the two best
designs by which Grady county can

follows:
Our wall space at the state fair

catch the fancy of the spectator and
TO present the resources of the state
in as attractive a way as possible,
many different pictures or designs

kept correctly.
IF such a plan is followed, and a
central figure or design is used, it IS
important that such design Should
