in the selection and preparation of the
Agates for the National Grange dele
gates and other eastern people that I
want to thank them most heartily for
the manner in which they carried out
that treat.
The agates were abou. the best col
lecJ.on mat | have ever seen and they
were polished on one side so as to
show their beauty and coloring beaut-
fully. The picture in the lid of the
box and the little printed note pasted
to the lid giving .he history, compost
tion and names OF the different agate
and the fine greeting to the delegates
and the story OF Lincon County was
about as nice piece OF work as have
seen done.
In all the years that have attend.
ed National Grange do not think the
members have received a souvenir
that was more appropriate and more
appreciated by all who were forum.
ate enough to receive one.
number Of rough agates were sent
me by Bro. Levage Of Mercer Lake,
Lane County and | sent out some Of
the best and had them polished to sup
ply some OF the Eastern people who
were net on hand when they were
distributed. Even then, had to pro-
mise to send some to other people.

Changers with a splendid collection of
his Pacific Coast pictures and

conclusion was reached.
Bolivia has indicated she would
request that the league refer to
commission the question as to whether
It was competent to revise the treaty
between Bolivia and Chile relative to
Tacna and africa. After last nights
conference, Senor Araymo said that
the president of the assembly had
refused to give any assurance that the
question would be referred TO q com

Senor Aramayo the assembly could
not place itself in the dangerous posi-.
ton Of tacitly going on record as be-
ing competent 10 revise treaties. He
declared that such course would
establish precedent for possible re-
vision OF the Versailles treaty and
would cause grave alarm in France
and other allied countries. During
the conference the president of the
league made an effort TO have Bolivia
consent 10 an indefinite postponement
but he failed, and renewed endeavorv

VICTORY

Same old story, Ardmore 80, Lawton

day afternoon and the Ardmore grid.
sters We're given a chance to tally up
the scores made by their plunging
through the line, around ends and by
the old reliable aerial route, they had
piled up the 35 points and placed their
claims on state championship on a
firm basis,
Lawton came on the field confident
Of victory from her old enemy and
with the confidence Of past victories
they were ready To put the claimants
down without mercy. After the whistle
claimed the first quarter the Lawton
team considered the situation from a
different standpoint.
on few occasions from the first
whistle were the defending Lawton
squad within striking distance of the
Ardmore goal line and on no occasion
did the offensive Ardmore gridsters
slow up ON the gradual pounding of
the Lawton line or cease to check the
dashing forwards in their long gains
around ends.
Ardmorc's entire team played in
stellar style and deserve credit for
steady teamwork that brought them
out of the fray with the top-heavy
score. They played a steady game
throughout, taking nothing for grant.
ed hut fighting on every inch Of the
ground. The stellar work of Willing.

able to special note.
Victory over Lawton places Ard
more within striking distance of the
coveted state championship honors. 1t
has been announced that after the
Lawton victory. Ardmore would an
nounce her candidacy for state cham
pionship honors and issue a chal-
lenge for contenders.
Ardmore has played the sensational
Of this section of the state by having
only one team TO cross her goal line.
The Hugo team on October 2S crossed
the goal line for the first touchdown
Of the season TO be piled against them.
The feat was accomplished only after
the second string men We're placed in
the game.
Ardmore's list Of victories include,
Durant, Lawton, Hugo, Gainesville,
Marietta and Norman.
