OKLAHOMA TO GAIN
ONE NEW lAWMAkER
RESULT OF CENSUS

Oklahoma City.-Since Oklahoma
will gain one new member to cen
gress as a result of the census re-
port for 1920, interest Is acute in po-
litical circles of the state as to what
procedure will be taken as the re-
suit of the caucus at Washington OF
republican members of congress who
agreed to pass a bill seapportioning
membership in the house of repre-
sentatves to correspond with the
census. The announcement, political
leaders say, involves the redistrict-
ing of the state by the coming leg
islature or a statewide campaign for
congress.
Counties in the state must be re-
arranged into nine congressional dis
tricts, should the bill be passed and
become a law before the forth COM
ing session of the legislature ad
iourns, political authorities declare.
With a republican house and dem
ocratic senate they predict that such
course would involve long con-
troyersy between the two houses be-
fore final and equitable settlement
could be reached
On the other hand, if the bill does
not become law before the assem-
bly, adjourns, the entire state would
take on the aspect of senitorlal
election. Both democratic and re-
publican leaders expressed confidence
that in the latter course the cleo
tion of congressman-at-la would
give both parties chance to dis
play their strength.

T VISITED a woman who greatly
J. respect; the sort Of woman who
is a credit to America and an asset
to her neighborhood. She has three
daughters, the oldest just fifteen, and
as we sat over our tea she began to
discuss her plans in regard to the
future Of her girls.
I thought that it would be well to
give them training in some business
capacity.
Yes. But l don't want them sim
ply to be fit for, an office job and
penury. And rule out teaching. The
life is too hard-and, again, too poor
ly paid. I want them to know how
to do something that will lead to free
dom, not slavery. And !, want them
to work at something that will grow
an interest, not become bore"
1t was quite a large order, and yet
reasonable One of the girls was dis
tinctly an artist, and her mother was
going to give her course in COM
mercial designing. The second daugh-
ter was to be trained in domestic sci
ence and catering, and the oldest girl
was to take an agricultural course. For
each girl the mother had invested a
sum of money that, while not large
would give the required start in their
different professions. Z. -
If there we're a little more of this
sort of scheming for girls, things woul6
be a lot easier for them. Most girls
are driven to Office jobs as the easies,
road to follow. Which is one reason
!. why they are so poorly paid, q.
