DEFINES
DANCING IN MOST
BOST0NIAN WORDS

Boston, Jan. 24.-Dancing is an in
stinct which is very much better ex-
pressed than suppressed, said Prof.
Carl Win. head of the department
Of psychology at Boston university
in serious defense OF natural plea.
sures.
Dancing serves useful social
end" he added. 1T gives married
people the opportunity to associate
with persons Of the opposite sex un-
der conventional circumstances. Dane
ing is an instinct like eating, fighting
and mating
Modern dancing is partly sensual,
partly an expression Of love for
rhythm and partly much needed ex-
ercise All of these functions are
natural and therefore the appeal Of
dancing cannot help but be wide
spread.
The emphasis that is some time
placed on dancing is the result Of
what psychologists know as inhibi-
tions. Unless normal instincts get
an expression or have some COM
pensation they are apt to burst out
in unusual forms.
For instance all women have the
maternal instinct. and the modern
bachelor woman, her instinct unsatis-
fled and repressed, compensates by
taking passionate interest in ami
mails or else she becomes a champion
of feminism"

At present | am employed by "Uncle

pecially would not care to inconven-

methods of living in vogue west of
these two great cities! Therefore, my
wife wus very much amused one day
when an employe of the Gas Com

her how to operate our gas range. We
had rented a new house; one of 20 in
a row recently constructed: and all
supplied with a kitchen gas range
which was of course the only kind
OF cooking stove we had ever used.
So she was quite puzzled as to why
the instructions were necessary, until
she discovered that the majority of
homes are equipped with coal ranges
and it is quite a novelty to possess
a gas stove.

A VISIT WITH A FORMER CITIZEN OF ARDMORE
RECALLS THE GLORIOUS SUNSETS
IN DEAR OLD ARDMORE
This Letter From the East From J. b. Kahe Is Unusu-
ally Interesting. 1t Will Teach Us Appreciation for
What We Have.

er City ana the City Of Brotherly
Love Il stranger here naturally looks
for an indication Of these names, but
as far as the Brotherly Love is con-
cerned Ardmorc contains great deal
more of this fine quality than is
perceptlblc to me here Occasionally
one sees a Quaker bonnet on Chest
nut street, our leading thoroughfare,
but it is being worn by some lady
visiting in from tne country. The
PhiladelphiIns have evidently discarded
their Quaker garb many years ago.
and according to the dramatic critics,
their preference in the theatrical line
is for musical comedy
quite the best amateur theatrical
performance | ever attended was one
given by the high school boys and
girls at the Robinson Opera House
in Ardmore about nine years ago. 1t
afforded us an evening of real pleas
ure and the hstrionic are displayed
on that occasion Wis equal TO that
offered on the legitimate stage.
My son Bernard Jr., is now - years
old, and although he was very young
when he left Ardmore, he thinks he
can remember many exciting things
that happened to him there, and he
ardently hopes to return there for a
visit some day.
We often speak OF our old friends
and acquaintances and are always
pleased when we see the name Of some
one we have known mentioned in the
Daily Ardmoreite. We never forget the
glorious sunsets we used to view, look
ing west from our home on McLish
avenue. Those kind of sunsets do not
exist in this part OF the country; nor
do we ever has closeup" view of
the moon and stars such as we de-
lighted in while in the southwest.
As we can no; live in Ardmore.
Okla, we decided to move to Ardmore.
Pa, as soon as possible. This is an
Attractive little town easily accessible
to the city and you can imagine
how reminiscent of Carter county our
ride will be, as the next station is
Berwyn, Pa.
| am still very much interested in
Ardmore and Carter county and am
hoping | shall have occasion to re-
turn there in the very near future.
Hoping your city continues to grow
and prosper and good fortune smiles
upon all my Ardmore friends this
coming year, | am,
Very sincerely yours.

! MOST OF STATE
Weather Reports from Over
New Mexico Show That
Crops Were improved by
the Recent Rains.

Santa Fe. June 9.--The follow
Ing report Of the extent of the re-

the local weather bureau.
The week began moderate TO
warm but turned cooler late FRI

flood damage was done in north-
east counties; roads and fields
We're washed and flooded, some
bridges torn out and traffic, both
rail and road, badly interrupted
There was also minor damage by
hail and lightning. Ranges have
generally been greatly benefited
although there is still need for
heavier rains from the lower Rio
Grande westward, where stock is
thin and its condition poor. Small
grain, corn, kafir, sorghums and
early beans are much benefited
by the rains and growing rapidly;
alfalfa is greatly aided; first cut
ting is general in central counties
and second crop growing fast in
southern, the first going to mar
ket.
Ventanes: Conditions are excel
lent and crops growing fast. Stock
is improving; range good and
farming advancing rapidly.
Pearl: Fine rains and grass IS
coming nicely. Prospects good.
Some long staple cotton planted
also corn.
Barton: Grass growing fast, but
stock still poor; grains excellent.
Sufficient moisture at present;
corn and beans coming up.
Mountainair: The good rains
have been crop savers; all crops
in and mostly all up, Slight hail
damage night of the 3rd.
Hermosa: Only light scattered
showers and still generally dry and
windy. Corn coming up slowly
Range poor, many weeds, but lit
tie grass.
Agricultural College: Light
showers and warm weather. Win
ter wheat oats, corn and truck
good, barley and spring wheat fair
Second crop Alfalfa is good. Range
poor, fruits, poor.
Black Lake; Rain and hail dur
ing the week, slight damage by
hail.
Las Vegas: Damage by the
storms in this vicinity is large.
Gardens were badly beaten down
by hail and flooding, fields were
flooded and many homes on the
low lands flooded and damaged by
water and mud. Lightning also
wrought some havoc. Roads out
of the city were rendered soft and
