4 LAW ENFORCEMENT REC
ORD THAT WILL CAUSE MANY
TO DO SOME THINKING

During eighteen months of the Bob
Hutchins administration as chief Of
police of Ardmore c. G. Sims was
associated with him in the capacity of
assistant chief.
During this time the total sum
collected in fines was s9,O667O. OF this
amount the fines paid by those arrest
cd by Mr. Sims aggregated S4,4s9.5O.
Almost one-half of the money the
city collected from law breakers was
from the arrests made by Mr.. Sims
despite the fact that something like
sixteen men were in the police serv-
ice of the city at the time.
III the people elect me chief OF
police said Mr.. Sims, II will en-
force the laws to the best of my abil-
| ity and | Will not put those ON the
force who are not men in age and
who are not real men in habits"
The record made by Mr. Sims is suf-
ficlent to satisfy any one that he is
not controlled by others, that he
thinks for himself and acts upon his
own responsibility and has the cour-
age to enforce the law wl.bout fea'
or favor.-Adv. ST.

DAILY PAPERS CARRY
SOMETHING MORE THAN
COMIC PAGE FOR YOU
IA Study" Articlel

Il used to be that reading news
paper meant little more to Ollie,
friend OF the writer, than skimming
through the comic section and get
ting laugh or two.
The writer also knows man who
never lays newspaper aside with
out reading every word on each
page, including all the advertise
ments.
Now. both Ollie and this man
waste their time-at least, Ollie used
to, for he's changed in the last year.
Ollie didn't get much more than a
laugh from a newspaper, and our
grown-up friend tried to get so
much he got hardly anything.
Some one once said a newspaper
is like a menu card. There are any
number of things in it, but you have
to choose certain ones and digest
them well before they do you any
good,
Every newspaper carries some
news that will not appeal to you and
will seem dull for one of two rea-
sons, either it isn't worth rcmem-
bering, or else you can't understand
il A fellow must learn 10 distin-
guish between the two and then get
after the news he can't understand
and try to figure out its meaning.
Dad or mother can help do this.
About a year ago our friend Ollie
began TO be his own news digest, and
having practiced every day he is now
capable of understanding most every
item of news as we'll as a grownup-
and even better than some OF The
old folks
There's the newspaper cartoon yot
might practice on as a starter. It:
something like a picture puzzle anC
hidden under the laughable sid'
there's serious meaning. Ferre
it out.
Figure out the meaning OF tn
day's news. Suppose new chic
of police is to take office. Judgin
from what the newspapers say o
his character and past deeds do yo
think he will be better than the ol
chief
Tackle all the news you read
that way. Read the editorials, fig
urc out the cartoons, come to SON
understanding about the news, an
then see if it isn't easier to thin
more for yourself than it is to d'
pend on the other fellows brains

CIRLHOOD STORIES
OF FAMOUS WOMEN
Emmeline Pankhurst

Emmeline had gone to bed and
should have been asleep for some
time when her father and mother,
candles in hand, following their Gus
tom, made the rounds of all the bed
rooms that night to see if the chill
dren were all right. This particu-
lar night Emmeline, for some reason,
decided to feign sleep.
She felt her father bend over her
bed, heard him sigh and say :
What pity she wasn't born boy"
Those words ranked in her breast
for many days, but Emmeline did
not regret that she was girl. How
ever, she did think that girls and
women we're treated unjustly.
Emmeline Pankhurst was one OF
the first militant suffragists of Eng
land. Her agitation helped in secur,
ing voting rights for women Of
America.

AMERICANS INVESTING IN EUROPE.

Americans have purchased at cost of $7 ,000,000 the Pathe Cinema Limited, of Paris This is the French company which co-operates with the Pathe Exchange Incorporated of America. Financiers say the purchase was aided by the rate of exchange which makes it desirable to get American money for investment in France. and they alege it is the forerunner of many large investments that will be made by Americans in European establishments of kind and another. 4.i'',tf
 In this connection it is said that much American capital is about to be invested in the hotel business in Europe Two large American hotels now under construction in London, and to be built, it is said elsewhere in England and on the Continent. As the situation clears up and becomes more nearly stabilized in Europe we may expect further investments of American capital there
 It might be said that considered whole in yestments in Europe do not involve the sending of money there to pay for the purchases. Europe already owes America billions, and when purchase property there it means that take the prop erty in part payment for what is due
 The most attractive opportunities for the invest ment of surplus money in Mexico Central and South America. Those countries do not present the difficult economic conditions which prevail in Europe. They have not the burden of great war debts hanging them. They have wonderful un- developed resources and every dollar invested markets for American products.

 The provision requiring the Shipping Board to furnish the Interior Department ships for operation Iin conjunction with the Alaska Railroad is dubious experiment.
 At the same tme there is less to apprehend from this move than many may anticipate. If these carriers be operated at profit, that circumstance will the need for them; if they cannot be operated at profit the Interior Depart !ment will be compelled to turn them back to the Shipping Board for allocaton to other services. ! The great danger is that private services may Dc tserously injured while the governments experiment | is in progress.

Already the newspapers of the country are re- spending to Gov, Bones request that they assist him task has for himself to bring about the of the red tape and restrictions which have bound Alaska tightly in the past.
 As printed in The Empire few days ago, Gov Bone recently addressed letters to many editors and publishers setting forth of the disadvantages under which Alaska has been struggling and asking that they give publicity to the matter. Typical of the of the reception of this letter is the fol- lowing editorial from the Indianapolis Ind News printed under the heading, "Aaskas Future:
 Scott C. Bone a former Indiana paper man, who is preparing to assume his official duties Governor of the Territory of Alaska, has little for red tape for traditions and customs that interfere with the discharge of duty and the dispatch of business. It is largely through his insist ence. following a survey of Alaskan affairs, that legislation will be introduced in Con gress to relieve situation that MT. Bone be- lieves is unfair, both to the people of Alaska and the residents of the rest of the country.
 Alaska for the last ten years is pictured having been virtually locked up portion of the national domain. Thirty eight different bureaus have had hand in the government of that territory. A proposal to do something for the Territory went from one bureau to another, usually getting lost somewhere. The pioneer spirit that made this country great has not been possible in Alaska because of the lack of a definite policy of government. Initiative killed through the wheels within wheels system
 
 No charge is made that the men inter ested in the administration of Alaska in an official way not true to their paths office but too many of them charged with the duty of governing to make it pos sble for any of them to govern. What is proposed in the coordination and cen traizaton of authority and responsibility thus making it possible to go ahead with the development of the Territory. MT Bone will have taken his first step toward helping the people of Alaska and the United States if Congress gives him power do what should be done.
 An editorial, appearing under the title "To Many Bureaus, the Sioux City, Ia, Journal says:
 Gov Scott C. Bone, of Alaska believes that the activity of overwhelming num- Der of bureaus at Washington ruins the Terrtorys chance for good government just too many cooks may spoil the broth Thrty-e bureaus have a hand in the government of the northern territory which condition, according to the Governor creates almost nsuperable difficulties.
