TEXT BOOKS IN OKLAHOMA.

The present method OF selecting and selling
text books In unsatisfactory The beginning OF
every school term is a nightmare to parents
and teachers. The constant change In books is
silly and unnecessary. But the reform essen
tial can be had without setting up s.ate print
cry and thus opening another leak.
or course there In quite a demand for free
text books. Anything that comes free makes n
hearty appeal 10 most people But there IL
really more reason for furnishing text
books free than there would be In furnishing
tools and implements free.
We must not 10 too far along the road OF
patcrnalistic government unless and until we
are prepared to make that road our highway.
And that think shall never bo willing

Companv K Wins From Hancock

Company K was awarded a 20
victory over the Hancock nine on
Sunday afternoon at the fair grounds
when the Hancock men refused to
abide by a decision of the umpire in
the last part of the eighth inning
and left the field. Mumbleau of Nor
ris made a long hit by third base,
which P. Monlux, the umpire called
a fair ball, and made a home run
on it. Hancock held that it was a
foul and refused to finish the game.
Until the eighth inning the game was
largely a pitchers battle. Hancock
had succeeded in getting one run
which they forfeited when they broke
up the game. Mumbleau was the
first batter up when he knocked the
home run, and it is probable Norris
would have increased the score
/ through their own efforts had the
game been completed.
