WAS FATAL AUTO ACCIDENT
Buttermaker at Newberg's Corners
Met Death Monday Evening

Jacob Sopher, buttermaker at New
berg's Corners, was killed Mondsy
evening near that place, when his car
collided with a machine driven by Jo-
seph lander. 1t is stated that tie
bright lights on both cars blinded tie
drivers and caused the collision. Other
members of the car driven by Sopher
were somewhat injured and the ma
chine was badly damaged. 1t is said
that Sopher's head was badly cut by
glass from the broken wind shield
and badly bruised in the compact when
the cars came together Both ma
chimes were Fords and were going at a
high rate of speed.
Sopher, whose former home was in
Iawo, took the job of buttermaker at
Newberg's Corners, year or more
ago.
A Cashton man saw the result of
the accident shortly after it happened
and he is of the opinion that the two
car drivers were racing. This may be
the case and it may be otherwise, but
nevertheless it was deplorable acct
dent and might have been avoided. All
car drivers should slow up when meet
ing another machine, especially at
night.-Cashton Record

GAS AND SUBS

The disarmament conference to be
held in Washington in November may
result in the limitation of ornaments
and the reduction of standing armies.
! If it accomplishes no more than these
two things it will justify its existance.
But for the sake Of humanity II
should do more. It should put an end
to submarine and gas warfare.
The whole world knows the horrors
of submarine warfare-how even help
less women and children have fallen
victims to the hornets of the deep.
Civilization has been set back a hun
dred years by their use.
The man who shoots another in the
back without warning is called cow
ard. The submarine is no better. 1t
strikes in the dark and murders whole
shiploads who have no means of strik-
ing back.
The use of gas is another evidence
of the degeneration of mankind.
In other days savage Indians burn
ed their prisoners al. the stake They
did not burn women and children.
The use of gas in warfare comes
dangerously near to being on par
with burning at the stake Its full
horrors are known only to those who
have suffered its agony.
Since the close of the world war
gasses have been produced that will
exterminate entire armies. If we
have another great war this will mean
the wholesale destruction of great
proportion of the male population of
the earth. 1t will also mean that en-
tire cities will be depopulated-
combatants and innocent women and
children falling victims to its deadly
fumes. Such attacks will come from
the air. The temptation to annihil-
ate will be too great for an enemy to
withstand.
Classes and submarines should be
outlawed among the nations of the
earth.
The Washington conference is an
opportune time for such action.
Civilization requires it and human
ity demands it.

why Not Trot Out Dawes Again.

The United States Shipping Board
has come about as near to giving some
thirg for nothing as it is humanely
possible TO do and yet escape-and
that, too, on mammoth scale.
The board recently contracted to sell
two hundred and five wooden ships
for $4,000. These ships were built
during the war at a cost to the gov
eminent of about 81 ,O00, 100000.
The shipping board might as well
have given them away. The junk in
them is worth more than the price re-
ceived for them, although the ships
are said to be in good condition.
Somebody made a mint of money
when these ships were built at gov
eminent expense, and somebody else
will probably make another mint thru
their sale"
The benevolent tax payer foots the
bill.
Four hundred and thirty thousand
dollars for ships that cost thousand
millions of dollars, more than two
thousand times as much as the price
received for them.
How long would private business
enterprise survive if managed in such
a loose manner?
President Harding turned General
Dawes loose on the government de-
partments in Washington. No doubt
the dignifed department heads and
bureau chiefs wriggled and cussed
and fumed, but Dawes is an artistic
cusser himself and he knows how to
WELD pruning knife. The result was
a saving to the tax payers of millions
upon millions Of dollars.
General Dawes is still alive and in
vigorous health.
He should be turned loose again
this time upon that expensive white
elephant known as the shipping board
~ hSSuS pAuhilSt ~ nStuS CARVING
it needs to be dissected and put out
Of business entirely. II is too ex-
pensive luxury for even the richest
nation on earth.
The cussing general polished of
bureaucrats to q finish, task which
has never been accomplished hereto
fore.
If any man can create something
out of nothing we believe General
Dawes can do it.
And the shipping beard, from the
standpoints of an asset, comes about
as near to being nothing as anything
we know of.
Trot Dawes out again.
Give him knife and turn him loose
The greater the rampage the better
Ut viii be for the overburdened tax
payers.

IS THIS \ CRIME WAVE?

They call this a crime wave. The
are carrying stories of crime, some
are heinous ones and make the heart
sick.
Do crime waves, as they are called,
pass over the world just as great
epidcmics of influenza and other dis
eases pass over the country, leaving
many victims PROSTATE?
Was Influenza that took away the
flower of our manhood and woman
hood u physical epidemic and is the
crime wave mental epidemic?
To guard against influenza, is it
necessary TO keep in the best physical
condition and to protect ones self
against the crime wave is it nee
essary to keep in perfect mental con-
dition?
1t is the usual thing for us to con-
denim the man who commits crime
without ever thinking Of it as an epi-
MlNHOdl bAi~AN obNh -
wave may come close to our own
door, without making any preparation
to ward 1t off. The general belief is
that only the wicked violate the law
and that we ourselves are not capable
of committing crime.
It may be true but advanced ply
biologists teach that it is n law of
metaphysics that thoughts externalize
themselves. If that statement, Won
derful in its meaning, is true then
every man has a means of protecting
himself against wave Of crime. ii
n man is too material to believe that
there Is any truth in such a state
ment then the remedy is good to prac-
tic within itself whether 1t is a pro-
lection or not.
This remedy in its practical appli-
cation would prohibit one from study
ing the details of crime, to turn from
the crime column in the newspaper,
to avoid anger, resentment, Jealousy
or envy. In other words to cultivate
the spiritual the more and the mater
ial the less.
Whether such practice is protec-
ton against evil in ourselves or not
there can come no harm from such
self training and the most advanced
thought Of the country teaches that
1t is a protection. 1t is at least n
safe habit TO follow.

AN OLD RECIPE
TO DARKEN HAIR
Sage Tea and Sulphur Turns Gray,
Faded Hair Dark and Glossy.

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly compound
ed, brings back the natural color and
lustre to the hair when faded, streak
ed or gray. Years ago the only
way to get this mixture was to make
it at home, which is mussy and
troublesome.
Nowadays We simply ask at any
drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sui
phur Compound" You will get large
bottle of this old-time recipe improved
by the addition of other ingredients.
at very little cost. Everybody uses
this preparation now, because no one
can possibly tell that you darkened
your hair, as 1t does it so naturally
and evenly. You dampen q sponge
or soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at time; by morning the gray
hair disappears, and after another ap-
plication or two, your hair becomes
beautifully dark, thick and glossy and
you look years yonger.-Adv.

TWO CLASSES OF HEROES

The world delights in the worship
Of a hero. But we want our hero to
do something Of spectacular kind.
We may be afraid Of adventure our
selves but we love the adventurous
man. We like 20 see our hero under
20 the sevcrest hardships and do some
notable thing.
We are inclined 10 forget the less
prosaic hero. We are inclined not TO
find the hero who stands in silence
and meets the scvercst conditions with
bravery, without ever fllnching and
stampedng in a cowardly fashion.
There are two great classes Of
heroW that have been developed dur
Ing the past few months. They are
the cotton and the wool growers.
Without men Of these two trades or
callings the world would be in n very
bad plight. They are our most useful
citizens. They lead rather quiet lives.
There is about their work none OF the
spectacular, there are no thrilling
adventures connected with their every
day work. But IL they were suddenly
removed, II the world were bercft Of
them and their work we would sud
denly be brought to an appreciation
OF their daily efforts In our behalf.
These men have had TO rtand in
silence and see their products de-
scend until they went below cost OF
production. Wool and cotton both
have been without market Crops
have been produced at the peak OF pro
ductlon cost 70 find that the cror
had no market. Men have stood like
stone walls and seen their fortunes
pass away under dcluge OF low
prices. The markets In their unac'
countable whirln caught these pro
ducts In malcsirom Of depression
that took them quite below the sur
face Of the cost OF production. WITH
their fortunes swept away, with theii
families poorly cared for, with sur
roundings that We're gloomy in the ex'
treme these heroes OF ours have turneC

COLD SNAP MAKES
IT A FFTY-FFW
CHANCE FOR FRUIT

Oklahoma City, March 22.-Spring
came to Oklahoma not as a maid IN
flowing robes tripping over dewey
grass with unshod feet but as a shiv-
ering little miss still bundled up in
her winter furs and wondering what
kind of reception she was being
given.
AS the weather bureau has said
the temperature at o'clock Monday
was 40 degrees 20 degrees lower than
at Z p. IN. Sunday. At 10 a. IN. the
mercury had fallen four more degrees
and showed no indication Of an i'm
mediate stop.
The forecast for the night included
the statement that it would probably
be freezing in the extreme SOUTH
eastern part Of the state. Clearing
weather was forecast with the pre-
diction that Monday would be probaD-
ly fair. Tuesday, warmer, the forc-
cast said.
Asked il fruit would be in imme-
diate danger, ]. p. Slaughter, head
of the bureau said:
"It's a fifty-fifty chance. II the
freeze actually comes it will hurt
fruit in the southeast corner, but
we are not certain the temperature
will be that low"
The cold wave came from the
northwest, according to the bureaus
report.
A light rain which fell here Sum
day night and early Monday became
much heavier in the afternoon.

OUR OPPORTUNITY

1t is a wonderful opportunity to
live in a town where there is de-
mand for as many as 500 new homes.
People are eager to move to Ard
more. Senator Carlock says that a
number of members of the present
senate state that during the year
they will move to Ardmore. 1t is
stated that in a smaller town near
here there are twenty families eager
to move to this city but there are no
homes for them. Just as Oklahoma
City a few years ago drew heavily
upon our citizenship just so we now
have the opportunity to draw heavily
upon the citizenship of other towns in
this section of the state.
To commercialize that opportunity,
to make it worth something to the
community there should be many new
homes built here. The rent problem
in Ardmore has been hard to solve.
Just as fast as new homes are built
there are number of families ready
for each house and as long as that
condition lasts, rents are bound to
stay up.
1t is probable that as many as 100
homes are under construction now
possibly more, but that does not be-
gin to solve the problem. There is a
need for five times that many. Let
Ardmore's motto this spring be Five
Hundred New Cottages.

fast purpose to the future. They must
realize that the world cannot do with
out them. that it would be difficult
indeed 10 give to the nations a greater
supply OF these commodities than
they have use for and they have
smiled and gone on with their work.
Bankers have trembled and fallen
by the wayside. Merchants have
closed their doors and given up to
dependency but the wool grower and
the cotton farmer have smiled back
at fate and with a song gone forward
with their work. 1t requires a hero
to perform such a feat. Discourage
ment does not sway such a life. These
men will triumph.
