THIS GIRL MADE A
NEAT PIN CUSHION
FROM A CANDY BOX
IHandicraft for Girlsl

Often you get cardboard boxes
from the downtown shops. Don't
throw them away, because you can
make from them many attractive ar
ticles for your room, and they will
give you something to do with your
hands" in idle moments.
The writer has a young friend
who made a most charming pin
cushion for her bureau from a small,
fiat, round candy box. Only the
box itself is used, and it is stuffed
with wool. The top is covered with
a piece of blue silk. Around the
outside of the box the girl has
tackled" with thread, strip of silk
TO match. To finish off the piece
my friend bought half yard OF
tiny silk flowers at downtown
shop, and these she glued around
the edge of the box, thus hiding her
stitches.
Hat boxes are often unsightly
things, but they can be made very
attractive by covering them with
wall paper. This same friend of
mine has two hat boxes she fixed
in that way. One is covered with
wall paper OF a violet design and the
other is covered with rose-patterned
paper.
Cut a broad strip of paper to fit
around the body of the box, and
narrow one to go around the side
of the lid. Lay the cover of the
box on the wall paper and cut
piece to fit. Paste may be used in
putting on the paper.
A common shoe box is not the
most attractive thing in the world,
either, but it can be made quite pre-
sentable by covering it with chintz
in a flower pattern. Wall paper
will do instead of cloth. To fit the
chintz to the box lay it on large
piece of the cloth and trim pieces to
fit. Cut out the corners SO that the
cloth will glue evenly to the box.

NEW Y0RK'S PUBLIC
LIBRARIES CROWDED
RESULTS LOW WAGES

New York. March 15.-Unempoymen
and lower wages are serving to make
New York increasingly literary. A
drift from the moving picture thea
tres seems perceptible.
These are the statements which
come from officials Of the citys pub
lie libraries, who declare that q new
| phenomenon has been Observed
erowding of branch libraries during
the morning hours as well as during
the afternoon and evening.
The recent rapid increase In the
patronage OF the branch libraries is
attributed CHIEFLY to unemployment and
70 lower wages.
The two years preceding last Octo-
Der had been marked by q decrease in
the demand for books at the branches
although the normal increase continued
at the main library. Library officials
hesitated 10 give any explanation
for this situation. They remarked that
both increases and decreases in IL
brary attendance in other cities OF the
country had been laid to high wages.
The conclusion that economic condl-
tons had u direct bearing upon IL
brary patronage was forced upon
them by the floclling Of men into the
branches at the inception.
Most of greater New York's branch
libraries are crowded these days from
the time OF the opening at q. m
TO the time OF the closing at 3 p. IN.
At the main library building on Fifth
Avenue overcrowding is chronic. The
facilities have been overtaxed for the
last five years, library officials say.
1T is inherent In any public utility
service IN New York that IL should
be outgrown before It is ready for
use' said one OF the library Off
cials 1T seems 10 be Impossible to
provide book service beyond the satur-
alton point. II the library budding were
extended to cover Bryant square all
the seats would probably be occupied
as soon as the addition was COM
pleied."
So great has been the demand for
books at the branches with the sc.

times. Frequently in the main reading

every one OF the 500 seats is occupied.
Besides the 1000 to 1900 readers, T.
GOO visitors daily pass through the
corridors Of the main library. Here are

address. a draft Of the Declaration Of
Independence in Jefferson's handwrit-

patible with the communist doctrine

they were promptly ousted from the

BOYHOOD STORIES
OF FAMOUS MEN
John Jacob Astor

John threw his bundle of clothes
over his shoulder, kissed his father
and sisters, shook hands with the
school master, and was off to seek
his fortune in America.
Il am not afraid that Jacob won't
get along in the world" said the
school master, as he watched the
boy trudge down the road and out
of sight. II have confidence in
him"
While still in sight of old Wal
dorf John sat down under tree
and made three resolutions: to be
honest, to be industrious, and not
to gamble.
And during the years that fol-
lowed John Jacob Astor accumu-
lated a vast fortune which had its
origin in a modest fur trading busi-
ness.

closed and the judges of the election
busy in tabulating the totals and
making out the returns which viii say
whether or not the citizens of Ard
more have decided to take a long.
forward step through the adoption
OF the managerial form of government,
or to stand still and let political
wirepulling continue to handle the
business of the city.
In event the managerial proposition
has carried, The Ardmoreite feels safe
in saying that it honestly and sin
cerely believes the people Will rea.
lie, later on, that they did not
make a mistake in their manner of
voting. II, on the other hand, the
returns show that the managerial
proposition failed, then all We will
have to do win be to get together
and vote a few more bundles Of
water-supply bonds, arrange to pay
few more pipeline bills a second time
and maybe, third time.
In the meanwhile, in event the
wire-pulling decides that politics shall
continue to reign while business takes
a backseat we might arrange to run
pipe line to Overlook and another
to Provence, as we are told both
those places have plenty of water
when it rains.
However, knowing that the rank
and file Of Ardmore's citizenry are
in favor of a progressive government,
we are sitting steady in the boat
firmly believing that the final returns,
following the counting of the votes,
will show that the progressive pro-
position has carried
In event it has carried. Ardmore
will grow by leaps and bounds. 1t
will grow steadily, continuously and
without cessation.
The business district will expand
and the residential section will ex-
tend. More business enterprises will
come here, including retail and whole
sale houses and manufacturing con-
Germs, while it will be a safe esti-
mate to say that within the next five
years a census, carefully taken and
compiled, will show Ardmore's popu-
lation TO have reached the $4,000
mark.

REAL NEWSPAPER.

On behalf of the citizens Of Ard
more, The Ardmoreite desires to ex-
tend to the Dallas News, to the Ok
lahoma, and to several other metro
politan newspapers, sincere thanks for
the manner in which their correspon-
dents, special men sent to cover the
Smith-Hamon trial, have handled the
matter insofar as Ardmore as a city,
and the people of Ardmore as Ame-
rican citizens, are concerned.

fore the people, when the ultra sem
sational comes into the courts for

matter be purely civil, such as may
be divorce suit with prominent par

writer to delve deep into the archives

from a woof OF fiction, interviewer
with just enough Of the warp of fact

irresponsible writer's have given
Ardmore a superabundance OF sensa-
tional advertising in the Clara Smith
case. irresponsible and untruthful
writers have told the American pub
lie, either by direct assertion or by
implication, that Ardmore is mod
ern Sodom and Gornorrah, with
mighty few women living within its
gates who would be given chance
to be turned In pillars OF salt.
This class of writer's have told the

are moral degenerates, and women

Jack Hyde the versatile editorial
writer on the Healdton Herald, is on
the warpath. He has grasped his
tomahawk in one hand and his
keen-edge scalping knife in the other; ;
he has danced the war-dance, donned
the warpaint dug up all peace trea-
ties and burned them, and gone out
after the self-appointed moral uplift-
ers who are trying TO hist" Healdton
out of the filth in which their own
fuiaginations have buried it.
AS we understand the matter, Jack
considers Healdton, as bad as it is,
as good as the average moral up
litter.
Also, as we understand the matter,
Healdton is growing town, a hust-
Ling, busting oil community, made
up OF a citizenship which comes and

the better element to remain and do
its part in the work OF developing
