GROW SOME WHEAT

1t is, indeed, most gratifying to
note that many farmers of this
county declare their intention of
planting wheat this fall and are
actually planning the work at this
time.
1t is all tomy-rot to say you can
buy your flour cheaper than you
can grow the wheat at home. Flour
never will be any cheaper than the
present selling price. The excessive
and unreasonable freight rates will
hold the price of flour up, even if
there were no other good and
sufficient reasons for saying it
will remain high.
The average family of five will
consume one 24-pound sack of
flour per week. This costs $3.50,
making about Sc spent monthly by
most families for flour, or a grand
total of $72 per year for flour
How much of labor and seed wheat
do you suppose it would require to
produce $72 worth of wheat?
If we ever expect to force freight
rates down, then we must first pro-
duce at home the things necessary
to sustain us and which can be
grown on our farms.

RAISING FUNDS WITH
WHICH TO REPAIR CHURCH

Mr.. John e. Everett, former rep
resentative in the legislature from
this county, who is always doing
something for the good of his COM
munity, is spending his idle time
raising funds which will be used to
repair the old house Of worship at
Everett's Chapel, in the 18th dis
trict, and is meeting with fairly
liberal encouragement, he informs
us. Mr.. Everett says that even if
the house should never be used
again as a regular meeting place,
it ought to be kept in repair for
holding burial services, since the
cemetery at that point is an old es-
tablished one and used frequently,
and that there must be a house in
which to hold burial services.

GLEASON'S FAIR

We feel that this issue of the En-
terprise would be incomplete did 1t
not carry an editorial commencing
the Gleason community fair, held at
Gleason High School building last
Friday. The citizens OF Gleason
and of the adjacent country are to
be truly and heartily commended
for their zeal and their progressive
ness as manifest in this community
fair. which closely rivaled the re-
cent fair. In fact, in the matter OF
woman's handicratt it outstrlpped
the county fair. Every department
was brin-full. Every citizen OF
Gleason felt a personal interest IN
the fair and each one manifested
nride in it, 1t was good to look up
on the things shown. 1t was indeed
encouraging to note that the spleh-
did women of that community nave
not forgotten the use Of the sewing
machine and needle, as their WORK
attracted the attention of every
visitor to the fair. It has been SAID
that at the rate we are going now OF
buying everything from the store
sewing machines will be a genuine
curiosity within the next rs years.
but we do not believe it will apply
TO the ladies of that town and vicln-
ity. The farm products shown also
we're good and prove that the farm
ers still know how to grow the
things that keep the world gong

Opossum Hunt For
Sunday School Boys

Ye editor took the boys Of his
Sunday school class, accompanied
by Mr.. w. W. Fuller, and hiked to
Ed Newberry's house on Friday
night, and all went for an opossum
hunt. All the boys had a big time
and lots of fun. 1t was much fun
for some of the, as they had never
seen any opossuhi caught and
skinned. They caught one with a
ripe fur and saved it to cure. The
bunch followed the dogs o. k. until
about 10 o'clock, and then all heads
were turned toward home, all being
tired and sleepy. The main at
traction was the skilled hunting OF
Mr.. Newberry and his dog, the dog
freeing two within about 20 min
utes and they were both captured,
one of them having to be twisted
out of a hollow log, which was no
stumbling block to the boys fun,
as all were anxious to see one twist
ed out of log anyway. Mr.. New
berry is typical huntsman and al
ways picks a good route for walk
ing, as he don't believe in walking
over any plowed or rough ground,
which is a great help to the tender
foot hunter. This is a fine class of
Sunday school boys who are mani
Testing much interest in their
work. Thanks, Mr.. Newberry We
may come again some time.

RECALL WATTERSON'S LOVE,
AND TROUBLE OF REBEL"

Chattanooga, Tenn, Oct. IL
"reminiscences of the Watterson re-
nance of the Chattanooga Rebel"
and of Civil War military politics
have been going the rounds since
"Marse Henry's letter regretting
as inability to attend the Confed-
crate reunion was published. Col.
Watterson declared in his letter
that of Chattanooga's many claims
to his affections, the one resulting
in the most poignant regret at cir
cumStances preventing his attend
ance at the reunion were the men,

that he found his wife, who, after
SO years of devotion, still abides,
and between whom and myself the

Watterson will be 81 years old next
February.
Mrs. Watterson, before her mar
riage on Dec. 20, 1865, was Miss
Rebecca Ewing, the beautiful
daughter Of Hon. Andrew Ewing
of Nashville. Their next wedding
anniversary will be the fifty-sixth
but the anniversary of Col. Waiter

ninth, for it was in 1862-1863 that
he edited the Chattanooga Rebel"

with relatives. Even in those ear

army had by then sorely pressed the
Confederates in and around Chatta-
nooga, and the "Rebel" outfit had
been hurriedly packed into cars and

there was but one course open, if

WOMEN OF SECOND
WARD PRAISED
BY CITY MANAGER

Attendance at the regular meet
ing Of the Second Ward Civic
League last night was unusu-
ally good. The feature Of the meet
ing was a talk made by City Man
ager Kirk Dyer in which he ac-
quainted the people with the fl
nancial condition of the city. He
outlined the work that is being
done now and the work planned
for the city during the remainder
OF the year. He expressed much
qualification at the amount OF
water the city has. In speaking OF
street Improvement work Mr.. Dyer
stated that the city had 100 miles
of streets, a distance as great as
the road between here and Okla
homa City; he said that to keep
this long road in good condition
the city has III mules and ten
men and that naturally the work
would be slow. He asked the peo.
pie to be patient for street i'm
provement but promised that in
time the streets Of the city should
be made in good condition.
Mr. Dyer congratulated the women
Of the Second Ward upon their interest
in civic affairs, upon their timely
work in having some unsightly places
cleared out and in running some un-
desirables out of their ward.
Other talks were made by A. ]
French, D. ~ Ferguson and George
Coffman. The speeches were not con-
fined to the ward but 10 the city as
q whole which shows that second ware
is not merely interested in its OWL
section Of Ardmore but in the city a.
4 whole.
George Coffman presided at the
meeting. The picnic which the league
plans to give was postponed until th'
weather is cooler and until some o
those on vacation trips return.
