When Greek Meets Yankee

Our language as we'll as our
ideas of fashion are changing if
not actually expanding. For ex-
ample, the Greek in charge of the
consulate of Greece in Washington
thinks the girl of 1921 bit "spiffy'
in her choice of attire. He admires
the American women vrey much
but he thinks they are losing res
pect for men. He adds: And the
styles the young women wear are
well, like them when they are
not too exaggerated. If the skirts
are not more than fourteen inches
from the ground they please me.
This Jazz that they call music.

So with men. Hard to get old

The older you grow the more

the more set in your ways. For in

Habit.
The stories of Mellen and the
mine mule Illustrate the terrific
power Of habit and the ruts it
makes in the brain.
You may think you'd like to quit
work. But habit would have some
thing satirical to say about that.
Take a soda fountain clerk. He
goes on vacation to a small town.
ga - iit iitNtl wants " SEE all Ice
cream soda again. But after a few
days like iron draws magnet, he
can't resist hanging around the To-
cal fountain, comparing it with his
own. And the hiss of charged water
is music to him.
Let a man be a reporter until he
gets old and retires. Then the only
way you can keep him away from
newspaper offices is to shoot him.
Work gets monotonous and it's
a good thing to take vacation.
But everv lob takes on the nature
of a habit. And the longer you
work at it the more its lure binds
you in its iron coils.
On first thought you may doubt
this. But tell the truth now-much
as you enjoy vacation, doesn't
1t give you thrill to get back to
"the old glind"?--Rutland News.

From Jerusalem to Jericho

Talk about passing by on the
other side and leaving the stran-
ger to be cared for by thieves. We
all know about this, for we have
read it in the Good Book. A SINH
lar case happened on the Barre
road last week. One nice Packard
car was stopped and the driver of
another car was stopped. This last
ore was told there was man by
the side of the road, and he was
either hurt or drunk. Instead of the
twin six driver finding out for
himself he passed it along to
George. He Investigated. The man
will live-the verdict being yeast
and water mixed with some thing
that smelled like horse liniment.--

the federal court as the hearing in
the million dollar Barney Thlocco oil

Frank A. Youmans of Fort Smith.
Lawyers arguments occupied the

later in the day.
A new angle to the contest was
opened by Judge d. a. Richardson, OF
Oklahoma City, representing Saley'
alleged daughter of the deceased

by Martha Jackson, was Illegal be-
cause the heirs had died before the
Tldocco allotment was made.

RECIPE TO CLEAR
A PIMPLY SKIN
Pimples are Impurities Seeking an
Outlet Through Skin Pores

Pimples, sores and boils usually re-
suit from toxins, polsons and impuri-
ties which are generated in the bowels
and then absorbed into the blood
through the very ducts which should
absorb only nourishment to sustain the
body.
1t is the function of the kidneys to
filter impurities from the blood and
cast them out in the form of urine, but
in many instances the bowels create
more toxins and impurities than the
kidneys can eliminate, then the blood
uses the skin pores as the next best
means of getting rid of these impuri-
ties which often break out all over the
skin in the form of pimpleS.
The surest way to clear the skin or
these eruptlons, says a noted author
| ity, Is to get from any pharmacy
about four ounces of Jad Salts and
take a tablespoonful in a glass of hot
water each morning before breakfast
for one week. This will prevent the
formation of toxins in the bowels. II
also stimulates the kidneys to normal
activity, thus coaxing them to filter
the blood of impurities and clearing
the skin of pimples.
lad Salts is inexpensive, harmless
and is made from the acid Of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lithia
Here you have Il pleasant ,effervescen'
drink which usually makes pimples
disappear; oleanses the blood and is
excellent for the kidneys as well.-

"OKLAHOMA PLAN" Of SELLING COTTON
FOUNDED ON BUSINESS PRINCIPLES
Plan Has -Four Outstanding Features Which
Have Proved Effective in Actual Use BY
California Associations

The Oklahoma Cotton Growers As
soctation is a business organization.
Its business is to sell the cotton of its
members. 1t has no other interest
whatever.
In order that 1t may operate sue
csssfully as a business institution
trsnsaeting business Of $4,000. 900
Of mare annually. 1t has been organ
tsed on sound business principles.
There are several outstanding and
essential features in its organization.
These features have been found to be
vital to the success OF a cooperative
max1stinx association. Here they
are:
1.--The association is organized on
4 cuCsModity basis-that Is, the cotton
to be handled must all be controlled
in q single association and not sold
through many local associations. In
the commodity plan the commodity
cotton, is organized, rather than indi
NduR1s or localities. Inlocality or
Eauixation the local associations com
pets against each other and at bes'
can eliminate but one speculative
profit--that of the local buyer.
2.--None but growers Of cottcI
shall be members. This b in ordsl
that NO outside interest may ever con
troll the association.
2.-Ths members shall sign bind

sell all of their product through the
association for period of years.
This Is necessary in order that the
Association may be sure OF having
something to sell and as a basis for
obtaining credit.
4.-The cotton of all members will
be pooled and warehoused, each mem
ber receiving his proportionate share
of the money received for the partic.
ular pool or pools into which his cot
ton Is placed. This has been found
to be the fairest arrangement possf
bic to the Individual grower, and en-
ables the Association to sell a large
quantity of any given grade or class
as there is a market for it.
These basic principles Of the "Ok'
lahoma Plan" are its strength They
have been worked out and adopted
by the leading cooperative marketing
associations Of California following
years of experiment in cooperative
marketing of various products.
"The Oklahoma Plan" is being
adopted almost bodily by the cotton
growers OF Texas. Mississippi, Georg
ia, North Carolina Arkansas cotton
growers are getting ready to organize
with It. The wheat growers after two
years OF partial organization arr
now recognizing on the above namet
principles.
The plan has every endorsement
and is by no means an experiment.
