IN CHOCTAW COUNTY

Tick quarantine laws will be raised
from western Choctaw county in the
near future. Recommendations to this
effect have been made by Pat Malone,
state inspector, following the nearly
complete eradication of ticks in that
section.
The east side Of the county can not
be released yet. it is said, and it is
not possible to say when it will be
as much work remains to be done.
The release of the west side is said
to mean nearly $4,000 to livestock

WONDERFUL.

Two Shawnee county farmers after
looking at the price of woolen suits
and mutton chops last year, decided
it would be profitable to get into the
.heep business. So each bought a
flock, paying $40 head.
The other day one farmer ship
ped his sheep to Kansas City and
got $3.50 a head. The other tried to
sell his at a public sale and couldn't
get bid. Both have a crop of wool
for which they cannot find market.
Yet woolen suits still sell at from
$50 to $50 and mutton chops at As
cents pound.
And the Government says: Save
your money and. buy War Saving
Stamps.--Capper's Weekly.

efficiency which it will impair: to
those who without it would grow up
to be liability instead Of an asset
to the community.
The amendment calls for state
levy Of -ix mills annually through
out he state. the money so collected
to be- distributed to the school dis
trcts of the state on the basis of
their respective school populations:
nothing could be more just and in all
fairness il is necessary if we are to
be truly democratic commonwealth.
Education is state function and
should b. largely supported by the
state as a whole for the state as a
whole benefits from it. As well say
that man who has no children should
not pay school tax as to say that a
community which has more wealth
than children should not be burden
cd with the education of the child
rem of the community which has more
children than wealth.
The opposition to the amendment
comes largely from the cities and
is born Of selfishness and selfish
view is always narrow view.
The amendment should carry in or
der that the children of Oklahoma
regardless Of the size or wealth Of the
communities in which circums tances
over which they have had no con-
troll have placed them. can have equal
advantages in the way of schools,
and also in order that the people
of this great and wealthy state need
no longer blush with shame at the
thought Of its position in educational
work among the sister states.

EQUALITY OF OPPORTUNITY

Equality of opportunity is the
cornerstone of democracy. Without
IL the name democracy is a misnomer.
While complete equality of opportuni-
ty has never yet been attained and
perhaps never can be, a democracy
fails in its chief function that does
not continually strive to approach as
near to its attainment az is humanity
possible.
Equality of opportunity and selfish
ness are diametrically opposed to one
another, although an absence of self
ishness in this as well as in all other
affairs Of life. will in the long run
be of real and lasting benefit to the
individual who ab.tains from
it, for in a truly democratic commu-
nifty what helps any individual helps
every other individual.
Success in life, both in material and
in ETHEREAL things depends to very
great extent on the equipment with
which one enters the arena of active
life. The three chief weapons with
which life's battles must he fought
are natural ability, inherited wealth
and training or education. No man
made laws can give young man or a
young woman natural ability, inherit
ed wealth is largely Il matter of
chance, but an education is the right
Of every citizen and is fully within
the power of the state to grant.
The child of the tenant farmer.
living ten miles from the nearest
town, has an inherent right to the
same education that the child of the
wealthiest inhabitant of the richest
town in the state. and when the oppor-
tunity of obtaining such an education
is denied him the state ,the peo-
pie who compose the state) signally
fails in its duty toward him. handi-
caps him for all his life, and en-
dangers its own well-being.
In the efficiency of its public
schools Oklahoma ranks thirty fifth
among the forty-eight states of the
union, nor can we even take pride
in the fac; that we are twelfth from
the bottom for its wealth and ability
considered Oklahoma fall below every
state in the union in this particular.
The children are here, thl means
for giving them as good school sys-
TEN az there is in the world are at
hand, for Oklahoma is a wealthy COM
mOnwealth and it only remains to
bring small portion of the abundant
resources of the state into active ser
vice in the cause of education to give
every one of its young men and boys
and young women and girls, that
which is of right theirs, and at the
same time lift the state to u higher
position among the aistcrhood of
states.
The amendment to the state CON
stitution to. be voted on at the next
election will, if it becomes a part
of the state constitution. in a great
measure accomplish all this and more
1t will not decrease the total wealth
of the state one iota but will in
