torial, or trying to butt in where
we are not wanted nor rushing in,
fool-like, where angels fear to tread.
The Ardmoreite would again urge
upon its readers the great necessity
Of lending the utmost cooperation
TO the teachers, helping them in the
honest efforts they will put forth
to make the schools success and TO
teach the children under their care,
so that they may develop into useful
men and women.
No worker, no matter how humble
or how exalted a position he may
hold, can do good work and give you
the best service, unless you stand by
him and encourage him and give him
credit for the real good which he
does.
Oklahoma school patrons, as rule,
are all too prone to find fault with
the teachers Of their schools They
are all too prone to hold the teacher
up to criticism and. to object TO
everything the teachers do.
This is one Of the main reasons, as
The Ardmoreite has previously stated
commenting editorially, why trained
teachers are quitting their profession
in droves and entering other fields
OF labor.
Too much picking and nagging will
wear out the patience Of a s~.nt. just
as too manay boils once strained the
patience Of Job TO the breaking point
and .as the constant dripping of water,
a drop at a time, wears away the
hardest stone.
We have in mind, as We write these
lines, one instance where the eternal
fault.finding of school boards and
school patrons, led to q lady teacher
of experience quitting the game and
going into the business world. This
young lady is a trained primary teach.

too frequent exercise of the pardon
ing power by the governor.
The Ardmoreite believes that Gov
ernor Robertson is'a good and hon
est man, just as Lee Cruce was
good, and honest man, and so be-
lieving 1t does not think that he, as
governor Of Oklahoma would commit
an error Of the head. But it does
believe that Governor Robertson Is
too prone to be guided by the kindly
impulses OF his heart causing to err,
Just as Governor Cruce erred when
he permitted his conscientious scruples
to cause him to contrSYert the execu-
ton of harsh but just sentences
which the courts had evoked.
Governor Robertson says that he
will see that the majesty Of the law
is sustained and that those who were
guilty of killing the hi-jacker who
was one Of the party who beat the
Tulsa auto driver to death, and those
who strung up the negro moonshiner
who murdered, while following a ne
farious calling, an officer Of the law
in the discharge Of his duty, are
guilty Of murder.
And the county attorney of Tulsa
county says that the man Owens
would not bave expiated his crime at
the hands OF an unlawful mob, if the
sheriff had have had any CUTS
II might be we'll for this county at
torney to ask himself, before he CON
dems the sheriff too harshly, what
he would have done had he have been
in the sheriffs place, confronted by
a mob of 5000 determined men, men
who were determined to see to ii
that at least one criminal should not
go unwhipped Of justice.
And it might be well, before he
condemns Sheriff Johnson or criti'
cises him too severely, for Governor
Robertson to commune with himself
and ask himself if he has not permit
ted the dictates of a kind heart to
guide him, all to frequently, parol'
ing, or pardoning convicted Oklahoma
criminals.
