To My Old Violin

What wondrous power from heaven upon thee
wrought?
What prisoned Ariel within thee broods?
Marvel of human skill and human thought,
Light as dry leaf in the winters woods
Thou mystic thing all beautiful! What mind
Conceived thee, what intelligence began
And out of chaos, thy rare shape designed,
Thou delicate and perfect work of man!
Across my hands thou Hest mute and still;
Thou wilt not breathe to me thy secret fine;
Thy matchless tones the eager shall thrill
To no entreaty or command of mine
But comes thy master, 10! thou yieldest all
Passion and pathos, rapture and despair;
To the souls need thy searching voice doth call
In language exquisite beyond compare
Till into speech articulate at last
1HOu seem 81 10 DfedK ana tnN charmed llSUene

Thee wake the echoes of the vanished past,
Touching the source of gladness and Of tears;
And, with bowed head he let's the sweet wave roll
Across him. swayed by that weird power of thine
And reverence and wonder fill his soul
That mans creation should be so divine

The fact that every man is more
or less of hog is generally conccd-
ed. The clash of diverse interests
IN state legislatures and in congress
very often prevents our law making
bodies from taking action along lines
that would be of great benefit to the
country aS Il whole. An illustration
of the truth of the foregoing is the
efforts Of some of the Texas dclcga-
tlon in congress To have Mexican lab
orcrI excepted from the operation Of
the law prohibiting the immigration
of laborrr5 for a specified time, and
the reason advanced is that the far
mrrs of Texas need the cheap Labor
That the Mexlcans furnish. That may
hr true, but it is also true that the
man'facturnEcitirs of the East and
North need the cheap labor that Italy
Germany, AUSTRIA, etc, furnish. if
they are to beat down wages to the
c" of mere existence. Tcxa; farm
iaborrs have been absolutely the poor

Republican control of the election

Lean secretaries of county boards

republican inspectors in each of the

The election machinery of the state

are made as what ought to be done.
1t is recommended that the law
creating the teachers pension fund
be amended so that fund may be
created that will properly care for
the objects and purposes of the law.
He suggests that such a fund be
created by requiring a compulsory
fee from all teachers and by proper
contribution from the State.
Statute that will not only prevent
but punish profiteering is recommend
cd.
The petroleum experiment station
located at Bartlcsville is praised and
aid to make it continued success is
recommended.
He recommends that the salaries
for District and Superior Judges be
increased to $1,000 per year, with a
reasonable increase in salaries for
county officers.
More funds should be provided to
meet applications in the home owner
ship department of the School Land
Department.
System of licensing drivers of auto
mobiles, SO as to eliminate the in
experienced drivers of cars, and other
provisions in the general conduct of
all ears on highways for the public
safety ARE recommended, as well as
more stringent laws against the theft
Of automobiles.
State Hospital for Disabled Soldiers
The matter of State hospital for
disabled soldiers is brought to at
trntion. with the suggestion for one
Of not less that 800 beds. II is sug-
gcsted that the Federal Government
has promised to equip and maintain
the hospital at Government expense
and to pay the State rental at the rate
Of ten per cent each year for ten
years, thus leaving the State the own
Ell of the hospital, fully equipped at the
end of the period. Members of the
Legislature have already talked over
this matter and a two-million dollar
appropriation is suggested.
Agricultural Interests
Mention is made of the progress of
the Red River case, in which Okla
homa and Texas are now contcnding
in court for certain territory, and for
tie true and final boundary line be-
tween the two States.
The Governor devotes considerable
space to agricultural interests and
recommends a bureau of forestry and
parks in charge of the board of agri-
culture.
More latitude should be allowed the
State Marketing Commission to the
end that better marketing facilities
be provided. This would include a
inform system of inspection, weights
and measures. Permission should al
so be given counties for the erection
of warehouses for cotton, etc. Sys-
tenn of warehouse receipts should be
provided which could co-relatc with
those OF the Federal Government.
Public Utilities
Relative to the public utilities, the
Governor calls attention to the in

Organized effort to remove artifi-
Cial barriers to commerce, to reduce
the destructive competition among
the working classes by closing the
ports of the country, in measure at
least, to the hungry horics Of un-
skilled European laborcrs; a more
equitable distribution of the wealth
created by the work of all, by the
elimination of some of the "sprcad"
between producer and consumer
these things would do more to better
public health and morals than direct
legislation on the subject can ever
hope to do.
1t is proposed to install set of
scales in each public school in Okla
homa in the near future and weigh
every pupil from time to time for the
purpose of determining which ones
are undcrnourished. That will not
feed the children. 1t will give some
manufacturer chance to profit in
supplying the scales. The health
boards of the various States are busy
now framing legislation that will be
largely useless, because of conditions
at the base of life.
What is needed is not more health
boards, more donations, more welfare
workers; but Il concentration of ef-
fort to better living conditions in
general and these conditions on the
average depend on ability of the pco-
pie to pay the price that proper living
entails.
