LAY SPEEDING IMPULSE
TO KETCHIKAN 'HOOCH''

Claiming they secured some ex-
ceedingly high pressure liquor at
Ketchikan which caused them to
yearn to drive Fords, two young
men, one from New York and the
other from Seattle, were before City
Magistrate A. B. Cole this morning
charged with most of the misde.
meanors in the book of ordinances.
Some time last evening the two
men took the Goldstein delivery car
and whooped it up and down the
streets for time. They returned
the car back to the spot where they
found it, but couple of tenders
were smashed. They had attempted
to climb several telephone poles in
their flight. Patrolman Al Forsythe
made the arrest.
Two very repentant young men
stood before the bar of justice this
morning and after being fined twenty
five dollars each were told by Judge
Cole to curb their impulses to drive
Fords and to pass on the other
side of the street when they saw
one at anchor.

our parole cottage, This building,
modern in every sense of the word,
airy and commodious, without a
lock or bolt offers a pleasant and
homelike abode for those patients,
either mildly insane, or on The
speedy road to recovery.
To adequately and comfortably
take care of the heating and hot
water problem, due to the expansi IN
CT the institution in recent years.
the entire heating system has b. er
changed. The two small boilers,
formerly supplying heat and hot
water have been removed, and in
their stead we have completed ;ie
single central heating unit. Our
new heating system, with the great
boiler housed in a fire proof, le-in-
forced concrete boiler room, apart
from the other buildings of the hos
pital is model of perfection in
low pressure steam heating and hot
water systems. This installation has
cost the Sanitarium Company ap-
prOximately ten thousand dollars.
Inmates Like Farming
Great ARRANGEMENTS have been
made on our fruit and truck farm.
The ground is being more intensely
farmed, and by heavier application of
fertilizers we hope to materially i'm
prove the quantity and quality of
produce raised for our own use.
Through the proper planting Of every
variety of vegetables grown in this
district, which includes practically
all vegetables, we will have an abun.
dance of fresh vegetables, as well
as fruits throughout the season.
A few hours of light work on the
farm each day, or at intervals, as
the patients so desire, is greatly ap-
preciated by the inmates and we
make every effort to allow as many
as possible out each day. We are
sorry at this time the limited size Of
our farm prevents a greater number
Of the patients this diversion, but we
hope to get around this in the near
future by acquiring additional lands
nearby.
During the recent influenza cpl
demc, Morningside maintained Its

There are many other themes
| which might be mentioned, such as
the repainting of all the buildings,
improved facilities here, a replace
ment there. and host of such items
| but these had best be classed in
! the general category of general up
keep and general supervision the
most important item of all, and for
which Morningside today, in its
splendid material condition and high
morale of both employees and pa
| tients, deserves, we feel, some slight
credit.

VEGETABLES VS.. MEDICINE

II man understood and applied the
same laws towards curing their bod
lily Ills that savage people and wild ami
mails do, they would need no doctor
| Everything has changed since ~
years ago when those who lived in
rural districts and close to nature
nstinctively knew the healing prop
critics that are contained in natures
storehouse.
Today food specialists are studying
| the question of natural vegetable
cures and are teaching people the
value OF The common fruitssand vege.
tables when used as medicine for
various ills.
The pineapple, heretofore has been

that the juice of the pineapple con
tains 4 digestive principle very much
| like pcpsin and are recommending 1t
as n cure for indigestion; also ii IL
used by physicians in cases of dip
iberia, sore throat and Group and In
such cases is reported to bring quick
| relief
Cranberries are now regarded as
one of the best cures for malaria and
for erysipelas and the best way to
take them incidentally is raw; the
chemical properties Of the acid are
then complete whereas when cooked
they are weakened. There are two
delicious ways Of eating cranberries
raw. In a salad and in n beverage.
To serve as q salad, select large ripe
berries. split and serve on lettuce
leaf with mayonaise dressing or with
olive oil. lemon juice and egg. AS
| beverage the berries are crushed and
left to soak in water over night. The
drink is very refreshing and cooling
to the blood
In cases of yellow fever watermel-
on has been found to be Of great
value and is also recommended in
epilepsy. In such cases only the
juice should be taken as the pulp is
very indigestible.
| Lemons have been recognized in the
medicinal world more than any other
fruit and for fever, liver troubles, sore
throat and other kindred ailments
have boen used for years. They are
Of great value and should always be
kept in the family medicine chest,
and partaken OF freely but never used
in combination with cane sugar as the
effect Of the one upon the other is
very bad on the human interior. The
entire medicinal value Of the lemon
Is lost when combined with sugar or
any other cane product, as syrup or
molasses.
Onions are one OF the most potent
Of the vegetables. For nervous troub-
les they are like a tonic and should
be eaten in great quantities either raw
or cooked Cases of nervous prostra'

OA j Gil TIERS MEET IN
B BUSINESS SESSIONS
AT METHODS CHURCH
HISTORICAL P RO c GRAM
GIVEN LAST NJ Gil I

One Of the most interesting and
helpful events Of the reunion was
the historical program given last at
the Methodist church by the Daugh-
ters/ of the Confederacy
The program began at $3.50 with
Mrs. Elizabeth King Cowgirl, histor-
ian, presiding. She gave an excel
lent sketch Of the chapter work which
was both interesting and instructive.
The oldest chapter in Oklahoma
was we'll given by Mrs. w f. Gotch'
er, Of McAlester.
The program was as follows: Music;
reports of general convention; War
Work, Mrs. f. w. Purdy, Tulsa;
Education. Mrs. f. l.. Merry, Tulsa;
Social Features. Mrs. James Arm

The business meetings Of the
Daughters were held in the Method
ist church and began yesterday af-
terncon at 1880, with Mrs. Michael
Conlan, president, presiding.
There was a large attendance and
much enthusiasm. In order that the
Daughters could attend the reception
which was given at the Confederate
home the program was not entirely
finished. All unfinished business was
carried over until this morning
The meeting began this morning
at 2 o'clock with Mrs. Conlan. pre-

by the secretary, Mrs. Bradfield, the
chairman OF the Stand Waite Monu

in the early fall.
After reading a financial report OF
each chapter II was found that over
hundred dollars was needed to com
plete the fund. Subscriptions were
called for and the necessary amount
raised and 1t is now assured that a
beautiful monument will be erected
The report of the credentials com
mi;tee was given by Mrs. r. r. VOL
Verton, chairman of the credentials
committee.
The next report given was that Of
the educational committee, by Mrs
W. n. Culbertson, chairman. Every
year the Daughters offer u scholar
ship to the Oklahoma College fol
Women at Chickasha, AS the monu
ment fund had been completed it was
voted to have the educational fund
increased. After taking subscriptions
and pledges it was found that there
would be enough money to assure
the maintenance Of two girls in the
college for next year.
Several Ardmore women gave do
nations to this fund. Those donatint
were Mrs. j. C. Thompson, Mrs. c
o. Bum, Mrs. Reed and Mrs. +. r

fronting Pennsylvania Avenue about
half way between the White House
and the Capitol, and the latter will
be the only building in Washington
that will excel it in architectural
splendor. The Memorial building will
provide Washington and the nation
with a spacious auditorium seating
over $500, which the capital has sad
ly lacked hitherto, and will contain
smaller assembly halls, thus adapting
it as the central meeting place Of ma
tional especially patriotic organiza-
tons. This idea of patriotic utility
will be further supported by the pro-
vision of an impressive chamber for
each of the states, which can be made
the ever-open Washington headquar-
tiers and rendezvous for the people of
that state, Other features will be
the archives halls, a museum, a mag
nifoent banquet hall to accommodate
six hundred and Offices for patriotic
societies, Inc putting over this big
undertaking, the women will largely
utilize the women's committees that
were built up by the Council of Ma
tional Defense during the war. The
George Washington Memorial Asso-
ciaton of Washington, Is providing
the business organization, and the
Smithsonian Institution will be the
custodian of the building.
The cost of erecting this National
temple Of patriotism Is to be met BY
a plan of privileged contributions,
whereby the great building-about $50
feet square--will represent in every
bit Of Its steel, marble and concrete,
patriotic service during the supreme
crisis OF the World War. Only
