AS children, we were not permitted to drink
tea or coffee, because it would stunt our growth
or make US nervous and irritable. When older,
however, we craved a hot drink with meals, and
custom gave us our tea or coffee.
Finally upon the instructions of the doctor,
Mother gave up her tea and coffee. But that
meant nothing in our young lives. Our vitality
was then strong enough to throw off any i'll effects.
But our time came, and we learned by ex-
perience that we could not drink tea or coffee.
When we had it for breakfast it put our nerves
on edge. When we drank it at the evening meal,
we tossed about in wakefulness most of the night.
And then we found Postum, a pure cereal

tea and coffee. We liked the rich, satisfying favor
of PoStun-and also the better health which re-
suited. And, too, we were surprised to find how

0SQD Good farm land avail
able under the Homestead Act was diff
cult to find so the United States bought
from the Indians, who had been seq
regated in Indian territory, a large
tract of some 10000 square miles that
had been used largely by the Indians
as pasture for their cattle and horses.
This was called Oklahoma, a word
meaning fine country" and was ar
ranged to be ready for sale to home
steaders at II o'clock noon of April
p, 1889. Troops were placed on
guard to prevent any settlers entering
before that time for more than 100000
boomers" as they were called, came
from all over the country to obtain
farms or places for business. On the
stroke of the hour, bugles sounded and
the mad rush by men, women and chill
dren to locate claims began. The gov
eminent had arranged land offices at
many places at which claims could be
filed for the farms or city lots, and
all that day these were besieged by
fighting mobs to register their selec-
lions. Before nightfall hundreds Of
farms were Staked out and Oklahoma
City and Guthrie were well on their
way tO become cities. The latter in
particular seemed to burst full tledged
from grassy plain to busting city. In
less than three hours four business
blocks were laid out, and lined with
tents in which were shops and offices.
A city council was elected at foul
o'clock with over 10000 votes cast,
and the Oklahoma Herald issued its
first edition before all the "boomers'
i"' lCtNllNu l'WI' III lCoS Ild sin
months Guthrie had four newspapers,
electric lights, street cars, and half a
dozen banks. Additional lands were
opened up for settlement in later years
and the same scenes Of phenomenal
growth were re-enacted.
Thus was developed this region
which came into the possession Of the
United States as a part of the Louisi-
n Purchase in 1903 and which was
set aside for so 4nany years as Indian
country. Previous to the formation
of Oklahoma territory, congress had
forbidden white settlers In this part
of the country, and this edict was en-
forced by federal troops. AS the de-
mand for more land was felt and as
the Indians decreased in numbers, In
dian territory was added to Oklahoma
territory, and in 1907 it was admitted
to the Union as the State Of Oklahoma,
adding another star to our flag, which
for eleven years had contained forty
five. The state has f1Ourished to such
an extent that it has ten presidential
electors, which is more than double
that of many of the older states Of
larger size.
