WATER STORAGE

Carter county'S farm congress VIII
meet in Ardmore next week.
This new organization was
formed at a meeting here about III
days ago. 1t enables the farmers oil
the county to exchange views on
better methods of farming, stock
raising and marketing, to co-ord'-
nate their efforts on such things as
are of common interest to the farm
ers and stock raisers Of the county.
We believe the storage OF water
is OF general interest in the coun-
ty, and that it should be gone into
at the next meeting of the congress.
The shortage OF water in the
county resulting from the long dry
summer which we have just gone
through should serve to bring
about common interest in water
forage.
Jhe Oklahoma City chamber OF
cummerce expects to call state

investigates baby's shoulder and

registration of aliens which is
either hardship upon the register
ers, or a great tax upon the gov
ernment. 1t is pointed out that a
nationwide registration OF the
young men of the country was ac-
complished in one day for the pur-
poses of raising a draft army, and
without any great expense. The
men who registered, it is noted, did
not protest or regard it as other
than a patriotic duty.
The law compelling registration
of all aliens, and supervision over
their activities, will not only, il
passed, serve to keep red" agita-
tors out of the country, but will
enable the government to keep alb
solute check upon those who remain
here without being interested
enough to become citizens, and
those who make a whole-hearted
effort TO become real Americans.

Berton BraleyS Daily Poem
THE ENCHANTED FOREST

They say that the Forest OF Arueh
Is peopled with Youth alone!
When the arteries start to harden,
When grizzled the hair has grown
No more in these haunts OF wonder
Shall you wander the pathways sweet
No more shall you saunter under
The shade where the branches meet.
But the Forest was made for levers,
And there is nc age to love,
And the same enchantment hovers
In the heart and spirit Of
Whoever still knows the glory
Which glows in his loved ones eyes,
And the thrall of the old old story
The spell of which never dies.
They say-and their words are truthful
That the Forest of Arden's made
For these who ire blithe and youthful
10 lnger beneath its shade;
But yen shall find gray.haired sages
ltS dells and its glens among,
Eor lovers may be all ages
lmt love is forever young

ALL SECTIONS OF STATE GIVING
CANNED GOODS AND
DRIED FRUITS
NEED GREAT QUANTITY

A o result Of the appeal which was
made to the city Of Baltimore for food
stuffs to help fill the Food Ship ALA
ouash" sailing from Philadelphia to
Batoum, a splendid start was made.
Hundreds of cases of prunes, raisins,
corn-beef, salmon, soup. condensed
milk, syrup, chocolate and cocoa. pre-
serves, and jams, also soaps were
sent. Sacks OF sugar, -four. beans,
seed wheat and seed corn helped to
swell the cargo.
The need was only partly met. The
appeal is now spreading throughout
the State. Hagerstown and Freder-
lex have used the public schools as
did Baltimore for collecting points.
Every school child was asked to bring
on Q certain day some Of the de-
sired articles.
The Boy Scouts collected the ma
terials and put them In packing
cases,
In Kent County through the efforts
Of Mrs. Evelyn Harris certain gar
ages and stores were used as col
lecting points, where farmers brought
all sorts of clothing and shoes, gar
den seed and commodities. These
were gathered together by Gladdens
Express and brought to Baltimore to
be included in the ship-load.
Churches are now planning to have
a white gift service, the results to be
sent on the next ship sailing about
the 10th of January. Gather togeth-
or your clothing now. Order from
your local grocer now. Delvs into
your pantries, search your ware
houses and give something for the
100000 people in the Near East who
face starvation, 100000 OF whom are
orphans. Notify the State Director at
IA W. Franklin Street, Baltimore,
Maryland, of the material which Is
being sent Wherever possible ask
local companies to send It out.
Hose, rakes, shovels, spades and
other tools of all sorts are most &C.
ceptable. Put in hammer or other
tools which you can spare.
In the counties numerous auction
sales are being held and farm ma
chfnery is being disposed of at low
prices. Why not give many Of these
tools to the Near East Relief?
There 10 nothing over there with

ENGLISH GIRLS
 ARE TURNING TO
 SIMPLE WEDDINGS

LONDON, Nov. 3.-Old fashioned weddings at church with lavish decor ations, gaily bedecked brides and bridesmaids, bell ringing and ella borate ceremonies, are gradually giv- ing way to more sombre and quicker weddings at registry offices.
 Statistics show that 25 per cent of the total marriages in this country during the year have been performed at registry offices. In London alone of 50,000 marriages, 16,000 were con- ducted by the registrar, and through out the country the number of civil ceremonies has grown from 30000 in 1890 to three times that number.
 Among many reasons given for favoring the civil marriage is the de sire to avoid publicity by contract ing parties, particularly in the cases of dukes, peers, theatrical stars and other prominent persons when re- marrying.
 English brides of the past genera tion would have been aghast at the thought of marrying without the pro- verbal orange blossom wreath and the retinue of bridesmaids, but broadening ideas developed by the present day girl make her prefer the

OLYMPIC CLUB II
 READY FOR GAMES

SAN FRANCISCO. Nov. Son what is probably the smallest foot ball practice field in the country the Olympic Club eleven of San Francisco this year has been drilled into one of the greatest football teams on the Pacific Coast.
 The Olympic football men, coached by Bob Evans, former Stanford Uni versity mentor, do their practicing on small lot, about 9 by 60 yards in size, which adjoins their big club house in the downtown section here.
 Much of the practicing of the Olym- pic team is done under electric light as the majority of the players are in business here and cannot go to the field before late in the afternoon or early in the evening.
 The Olympic team is made up of former college stars; among them Rabbit" Bradshaw, ex-Nevada quar- ter; Jack Patrick, former Stanford captain; Needles, one time Santa Clara halfback; King, ex-Navy man, and Cort Majors and George Latham, both of whom explained the Uni versity of California eleven.
