when he was four years old, and az.

his boyhood days he carried papers for
the Ardmoreite Publishing Company,
and was a very conscientious worker.
At the age of is he enlisted in the
United States navy at Oklahoma City,

he spent at sea. His position while in
the naval service was as stenographer,
He received an honorable discharge in
1915.
On February %, 1917, Mr. Lee mar.
ried Miss Irene Eddleman. of this city
daughter of Judge A. Eddleman.
Since the date of his discharge from
the navy he hai been suffering from
tuberculosis, and has been able to work
only at intervals. He had been under
medical treatment continuously for the
past two years. Last November he went
to Denver, Col, believing that the
change of altitude would benefit his
health, but his condition turned for
the worse, and he entered the naval hos

Ernest Lee was a bright happy
cheerful boy who grew up in the affec-
tons Of older people. He was like

paper. He was loved by his teachers
and was the youngest stenographer
ever in the city. He entered the pub

years ago but his venture was not to
his liking and he sought more congen-

WILD BOY FOUND
in REMOTE INDIA

London, March Pa wild boy re-
sembling in some respects Kipling s
character, "Mowgli," who was sucked
by she-wolf and grew up to be leader
of the pack, has been found in remote
section of India, according to a story
told in the Times. In this case, how.
ever, the boy is reputed to have been
kidnapped by a leopard. He has been
recaptured and his father is now keep
ing sharp eye on him to see that he
does not run away to the woods.
The Times credits the tale to Stew
art Baker, who was recently in the
undeveloped country round the Cachar
hills on the northeast frontier of In
dia where he was in charge of road
mending. 1t is customary in that re-
gion for the villagers to mend roads in
stead Of paying taxes. Mr.. Baker
asked villager why he did not do his
share of road-mending.
The man replied that he was afraid
to leave his village. His wife having
died short time previously, he had no
one to take care of his little wild son"
who, in his absence, might run into the
jungle and get lost. Mr.. Baker paid
the villages visit and found with him
a child about seven years Of age, with
innumerable white scars of tiny cuts
and scratches all over its body.
The child's father told him that, five
years. before the villagers Of Cachar
had killed two leopard cubs. The moth
er leopard had prowled about the jun.
gle bordering on the village. A few
days later the mother of the child left
it lying on cloth while she went away
to reap rice. In her absence the mother
leopard carried the child off. The vii
layers searched for it but could find no
trace of it.
Some three years later a sportsman
killed a leopard in the jungle. He told
the villagers that the leopard had two
cubs. They searched the jungle and
found the two cubs and with them
the missing child

is COUNTING ON YOU

The qusting Of James Chancellor
chief of police. by the commissioners,
and mis- being retained in office by
order OF the court, coupled with the
small vote hs received for re-indorse-
ment Ut the hands Of the people March
Is, have resulted in detracting from
his prestige as an officer. There has
resulted many complaints OF lax en-
forcement Of law within the past few
weeks.
Ardmore never had n truer citizen
than Uncle Jimmie Chancellor, and on
the occasion Of his first request for
office it was given him cheerfully by
big vote. The people are not re-
sponsible for the misfortunes of his
administration and should not be made
to suffer the consequences.
Mr.. Chancellor has but few more
weeks Of office holding as police chief.
He has lived here many years and will
continue to live here many more. His
family is here, his home is here, his
friends are here and he will continue
TO live here among these friends. He
Is 4 man OF sufficient ingenuity, of suf-
flcient force to find a way to produce
absolute respect for law as long as his
term lasts.
Ar.lfe 10
sheriff Of Carter county, with q big
vote for many elections in succession.
Few men are ever trusted as he has
been trusted and Ardmore people have
always been taught that they could
look to him in confidence in every
emergency.
The assault made yesterday upon
a patrolman, and the Bud Baliew epi-
sode Saturday night suggests that there
is an emergency confronting the peo-
pie. Lax law enforcement here breeds
lack of respect for law in ether
sections Of the country. Sheriff Car
rett was elected by the whole county,
his services do not belong exclusively
to the county outside of Ardmore.
We still have a claim upon him.
We believe absolutely in the willing
ness and in the power, of Sheriff Gar.
rett and Chief Chancellor to get to-
gether and TO decide upon a plan of
law enforcement that will supercede
the present laxity, that will restore re-
spect for city ordinances and state
statutes and that will result in MAX
ing Ardmore people realize that they
are given adequate protection and re-
store whatever confidence has been lost
in the police system OF the city.

To his mind getting even was i vir-

Revenge is said TO have been planted
deep in the hearts of the North Ameri-
can Indian product Of savagery, and
there is more or less temptation that
comes to every man to seek to avenge
wrongs he fancies have been done him.
There is one certain book much hal
lowed but seldomly read which says
Vengeance is Mine Then if ven
geance belongs to another it is not
yours to appropriate it is not
yours to use, its use is an outrage
against law higher than man has ever
written and its violation leaves inevi-
tably only sorrow and never brings any
lasting degree Of satisfaction.
There are times when the temptation
may almost overwhelm but those are
times when the strength of real man
hood ought to assert itself and the first
great duty of mankind is to overcome
themselves and in so doing they lift
the weapons from the hands Of a
would-be enemy
There was never any good sense and
never any permanent satisfaction in

THERE is A DIFFERENCE

One who recently passed by motor
car over a large area Of the southwest
portion of the stale said il was easy
to observe at every quarter section
whether it was occupied by its owner
or by a tenant.
The points Of difference We're that
the home owners had their premises
properly painted, the fences and gates
were in a good state of preservation,
there were trees and shrubbery grow
ing and there was an air of greater
care, more industry and a wider pros
perity.
To give a proper analysis to the stu
alton so that it may be understood in
it's far reaching results turn to what
must be the difference in the minds and
thoughts of the occupants. The man
in the treeless ill-kept home did not
have the inspiration, the hope, the
cheerfulness, the encouragement the
energy of the man who occupied his
own premises
This is the homecoming period OF
the year. This is the time when every
man with a spark of love Of nature
left in him wants to see a garden, a
tree and some shrubbery growing. BE
wants TO improve and paint and beau
tify. He wants to feel the thrill that
comes from ownership and every man
is entitled 10 home ownership. There
is some way for every man to own his
home, Our motto this spring is five
hundred new homes for Ardmore." Let
every man with sufficient initiative,
to find way build and improve a
home this spring.
