ADJUSTMENTS.
1.-THE BIRD OF PARADISE"
WEDNESDAY NIGHT,

Even the lure of the tropics has been
felt in the hearts of men from the lands
of the north. Perhaps it is because
that lure is eternal that The Bird of
Paradise, which comes to the Audi
forum on Wednesday night, finds it
self going on year after year playing
not only to new patrons but to many
who have seen it not once but many,
many times before. ...
One of the greatest charms of this
play is the ever present wierdly sweet
music that steals out of the silence and
forces its appeal to deeper emotional
ism, giving peace to troubled souls and
a sweeter breath to the island love.
The company is the same that ap-
pears in the large cities, carrying car
load of scenery, numbering about 80
people, with Miss Ann Reader in the
role of Luana, the little princess. Viii

Cotton growers from every cotton

subject of caring for the 1920 crop.
The cotton growers assert that in
the past there has been too few ware

it has worked a hardship on the
growers and prevented them from get

SCALE FOR HARVEST
FIELD HANDS FIXED
BY GROWERS SATURDAY

Saturday a meeting of wheat grow
ers was convened at Enid and a uni
form wage scale for harvest hands
adopted which calls for a flat scale
of $500 per day.
In making this scale the growers
did not specify the number Of hours
70 constitute a days work, they based
their wage scale on the one adopted
by Kansas, the Kansas scale is 70
cents per hour but a compromise was
effected that called for 5000 in Ok
lahoma.
The wage scale for harvest hands
has never caused any trouble in
Carter county. Carter county has
never been considered primarily a
wheat growing county although there
are at present and has been in the
past several thousand acres in wheat
and other small grains every season.
The growers have always paid
the harvest hands well and have
had no trouble with them, this accord
ing to one wheat grower today will
continue to be the policy Of grain
growers in this section.

Kansas line are infested with bunch
