DIR. BROOKS HOME:
ENTHUSIASTIC OVER
TOURIST CAMP SITE

DR.. Crayton s. Brooks. minister of
the First Christian church. who has
been absent for a month of vaca-
ton, returned 10 Ardmore Thursday
and will occupy his pulpit Sunday
morning and evening His members
ana friends will be glad to know that
he has returned much refreshed and
invgorated As a result of overwork
his health was somewhat impaired.
and his physicians ordered him away
for rest. The improvement has been
most gratifying.
Going TO Tulsa by rail DIR. Brooks
became the guest of his old college
mate, ). w. Mari, now a successful
business man of that city, and with
Young Shelby Mari, they motored to
the Spavinaw country and camped
in the beautiful Ozarks. They carried
tent and complete camping outfit
and scorned hotels and restaurants.
They fished and swan i'm Elk River
at Noel, Mo-, and sojourned for a
season az lovely Bella Vista, Ark,
Here the Linebargerl Brothers have
made a wonderful dream come true.
They show the tourists many courte.
sizes and exhibit proudly several lots
and cottages owned by Ardmore citi-
zcns.
DIR. Brooks party visited sulphur
Springs and Bentonville and then
osho Joplin, Carthage, Nevada and
on to Kansas City. joining their
families at Excelsior Springs.
On the return trip the minister
visited his mother at Elsberry, Mo.
He says that hundreds Of tourists
who last year went TO the Rockies
went this year to the Ozarks.
Many of the towns visited have
ample and beautiful camping ground
for the automobile tourists. The most
perfect accommodations they found at
Joplin.
Merchants there stated that there
have already been a hundred thousand
tourists in that district this year and
that they spend much money with
the local merchants.
Joplin bids for them by free grounds.
IN city park, free dutch ovens. free
fuel a free picture show and bathing.
There are swings merry.go.rounds,
teeter boards for the children all free
The result is that Joplin is immensely
popular with the tourists.
DR.. Brooks says he has come back
with the determination to promote
similar attractions for Ardmore. He
believes the several civic clubs and
the Chamber Of Commerce could do no
advertising so practical or so effec-
tive. The motor tourists are increasing
tremendously in number and it is
not two early to begin now to plan
for next year.

AMBoY AVENUE PAVEMENT.

With the State Highway Commission looking
with favor on the proposed plan to pave Amboy
avenue from curb TO curb at its northern ex-
tremity every effort should be made by the
county and city to push the project. There Is
.oing to be an enormous traffic over this high
way this season. In fact, it has already set in.
The present narrow strip of pavement on the ex-
RENE eastern side of the road against the curb
is dangerous and it is a question just what the
liability of the city would be should there be an
accident there due to the unusual condition.
Here again the intimate knowledge of Chair
nan Burton, of the state Highway Commission,
as to local conditions will help a lot in getting
something done.
The thousands of tourists who pass over this
and who are not familiar with the way the road
Ras paved in the first place, cannot help but
wonder why such a lop-sided street exists. 1t

RIPPING RHYMES
BY Walt Mason.
THE PRISON

We have 10 punish those who fail
to walk the narrow way. for law and
order must prevail, or there's the
deuce to pay; and SO we put lewd
men In jail, for stealing bales of hay.
And we've been falling sinful guys
through all the bitter years since
Adam brushed the pesky flies from
off his brindled steers; and often,
often, doubts must rise If wisdom
here appears. We've Jailed such
multitudes of men, for long or
shorter spells. we've sent so many
to the pen and locked them in their
cells. If jails improved the world,
why then, 1t should be wearing bells.
And every time we Jail a skate for
swiping bales of hay. we let some
greater ~reprobate unshackled go his
way 10 bear his plumber in a crate,
or haul it in a dray. The prison is
a beastly place that reeks of name
less CRIME, and he is far. from
heavens grace. who's in it doing
time, and bitter lines are on his
face, and in his heart is crime. Re-
venge on those who put him there,
is what he thinks of most, the jurist
in padded chair, the stall-fed legal
host; his soul is cankered in despair,
and justice seems a ghost. Some
day the old world must invent a
better kind of pen that viii nos
make the erring gent go forth to sin
again: for prison is a punishment for
beasts, and not Cor men.

THAI ROAD THROUGH FoRDs.

T. is good news to learn that work has peeh
started on the road through Fords. 1t mas
heer in a deplorable condition all winter ana
since the snowstorm in February 1t has oeen
practically impossible.
It is going to be a great annoyance maAihe
the detour at Rogan's corner, thanks 10 the
failure of woodbridge township to compel
the contractor, who laid the sewer through
Fords TO restore the road to its original con-
dition, but the prospects of having a decent
road to travel on will help the traveller forget
the inconvenience.
While they are at it. steps ought to be taken
to make this whole road from Perth Amooy
70 Metuchen wider. The least that can be done
is to build up on each side Of the paved portion
of the road so that it is possible to get on and off
of the pavement, as the autoist Is constantly
compelled to do, without danger of accident.
On these fine spring days this road is used
more and more by pedestrians who stroll along
sometimes three and four abreast occupying
nearly all Of the narrow strip of pavement so
that accidents are hard to avoid.
There really ought TO be a sidewalk the full
length of the road from Perth Amboy as far
as Fords. At least the pavement ought to be
wide enough to give the driver a fair chance.

PROTECTING THE POLICE FORCE.

wbila fun Justice must be given any patrol
man brought up before the Board of Aldermen

full Justice must be given the public who pay

supposed to protect. Also consideration must
he given the other members of the force who
are endeavoring to keep their own records clean
in order that the record OF the whole police
department may be kept clean.
One of the first essentials of a well guarded
city is that its streets be made safe. While the
practice of girls and young women returning
home from social affairs late at night alone Is
al wrong those who are indiscreet enough to
do so ought to have all the safeguards possible
thrown about them. Naturally, the public look
to the policeman to give this protection. Incl
dentslly, a policewoman would also be a great
assistance in such cases.
