FAMILY NAMES STILL SURVIVE

As members OF the Ardmore bar the Ledbetters,
the BledSoes, the Furmans and the Normans are
still with Us. While the older lawyers bearing
these names have gone from us their sons
are here, their names are kept alive and the young
men have better opportunities to grow into big men
than their fathers had.
W. A.. Ledbetter, who was, for a long time, a
very prominent member of the bar. moved to Okla
homa City, and he has been replaced by his son
Robert. who is here in he practice. Robert has
all the energy and the self-reliance and the scintil-
ating mind OF the Ledbetters, and he gives every
promise OF growing into a big lawyer. Roberts
father was chairman OF the Judiciary committee OF
the Constitutional Convention; he fought the enc
mics OF statehood in the Federal courts and did a
big practice in old Indian Territory prior to state
hood.
The Bledsoe name is kept in Ardmore as a
member OF the local bar by Roy Bledsoe, son of
S. T. Bledsoe. Roy gives evidence OF possessing
all the tenacity that made his father famous as the
greatest corporation lawyer OF the country. He is
a worker very much as his father worked and that
means success. Roys father gave attention to com
mercial and corporation law and is general attorney
for the Santa Fe Railway System and a member OF
he Board of Directors OF that line OF road which
speak conclusively OF his ability.
The name OF Henry Furman is still with us,
although The father has passed away. The elder
Henry Furman gave more attention TO criminal law,
he was 4 man Of a powerful mind, he served this
state as a member Of the Criminal Court of Appeals
and his harmless error decisions have made the
laws OF the state and have been copied in many
other states. Henry Furman, son of the noted
jurist, is giving much attention to civil law, he has
the same brilliancy OF intellect his father had, he
is a close student and a hard worker and these
virtues always bring success.
.Ardmorc never had a lawyer who was held in
higher regard than Thomas Norman, The Judge on
the bench always took his word for the law 50
thorough was he in his knowledge and so honest
was he in his statements. The senior Thomas Nor
man was a close worker, a man devoted to hi,
clients. he never knew what it was to give up in a
lawsuit. He has passed away but he has lett his son
Thomas Norman. who has his Offices in the building
owned by his father and is following in the foot.
steps OF his distinguished father as a close student
and an honest practitioner. Thomas Norman is
quiet. he possesses none Of the bombastic, he passes
for his real worth only among those who know him
well bur he is made out of the qualities that wear
that grow better each year and he is destined to
climb to heights OF success by his habits OF study
and his close observation.

No. l--IlOw a Whale. Breathing
Air. Gan Stay Under Water

Whales and %porpoises are not fish.
as one is led TO suppose from the
fact that they spend their time wholly
in water. but animals. They are by
their nature very much like cows
and horses and other animals which
live on land, and their flesh is not
like that Of fish but real animal flesh
The whale also breathes air just
like other animals, and does not.
like the fish, secure its oxygen
from the water.
The whale can hold its breath for
u long time under water, and that
is the reason why he can stay under
so long even though he depends upon
the air for breathing. \ whale has
been known to stay under water for
forty-i.ve minutes without having
to come up for air. He car do this and
at the same time. keep his mouth
opcn under water, during this time.
in order to catch food, because his
nostrils do not connect directly with
his windpipe. As q result Of this
special construction a whale can re-
main under water with his mouth
open without strangling.
When the whale comes TO the sur
face and blows" he takes in a new
supply of fresh cool air. and goes
under holding his breath. Al tn,
end of Il period Of time, sometimes
short and sometimes long, he is forced
