foundation in fact He stated that
three days prior to the appearance
OF The Oklahoman's objection the
editor OF that paper had written
the governor that he would oppose
the proposition unless the bill was
changed in several particulars. At
that time there was no bill in fact.
The governor and legislative COM
mitttees were then busy framing a
skeleton OF the measure in order
that there might be something tan
gible in hand with which to work.
At the request OF the governor,
Mr.. Nesbitt then called upon the
editor and explained the situation,
asking him to Join in the confer
ences and help to frame the fouda-
ton work OF the bill. He left with
the promise OF the editor that, at
least, no attack would be made on
the measure until there was some
thing definite to attack.

clear to the Ada audience, the as
sault OF The Oklahoman was made
to appear as an assault on the
whole program OF road construc-
ton and not upon details OF the
measure, there being no details as
yet to assault. In several particu-
lars, statements of The Oklahoman
were shown by Mr. Nesbitt to be
entirely at variance with facts as
furnished the editor by Mr.. Mes
bitt himself and the governor,
Attitude of Capital City
In conclusion, Representative
Nesbitt declared it would be
the policy OF those support
ing the road program 10 accept
the attitude of The Oklahoman as
a declaration of war by Oklahoma
City as against the balance OF the
state; to interpret the attitude OF
the paper as reflecting the senti-
ment Of the business interests OF
Oklahoma City as being against the
road-bullding program because
that city does not want to assist
the state at large to build roads.

forget Aunt Matilda or any other
feminine members of the brides fam
lily.
a generation ago the bride carried
a rather stiff and mammoth bouquet,
which she had to hold rigidly in front
of her and manage with both hands
as she went up the aisle; but the
modern wedding bouquet is a great
sheaf of flowers. suggesting loose
arrangement and is tied together with
several yards of tulle that add to the
daintiness and grace of the flowers
This sheaf of blossoms she carries on
one arm-the left-and the flowers
are arranged to look well at the left
side of her costume. long fronds OF
feathery fern straying down among
the laces of her gown. and showers
of narrow white satin ribbons dangie
tiny individual bouquets against her
trailing skirt and veil. A wedding
bouquet of the sort costs the bride
groom a pretty penny-ffty dotiars
is really a moderate price-but never
again, presumably will he have to in
vest such sum all at one time in
floral offerinF for his lady.
This year the wedding bouquet, like
everything else. is being trimmed with
lace. Filmy lace scarfs are used in
stead of the ordinary white tulle to
tie the sheaf of flowers together and
the trailing ends of lace add to the
elegance of the brides costume. OF
course only the finest, most beautiful
lace may be used for such a purpose
and here is chance for the bride
groom to make an extra, acceptable
gift to his bride: for the beautiful
lace that ties the wedding bouquet may
be carefully removed and used after
