The policy of the federal government
in road construction in the state OF
Oklahoma is TO build north and south
lines through the state. One of these
lines known as the jefferson Highway
passes north and south through Du
rant. One passes north and south
through Ardmore which might be called
the Winnipeg and Gulf. Another passes
north and south through Waurika and
Duncan known as the Meridian High
way.
The one which passes through this
city on account of its great length and
the prominent cities it passes through
from the north line of the United States
to the southern boundary of the repub
lie is considered the most prominent
highway in the state.
These north and south roads are a
fixed policy and the next policy is to
secure the construction of lateral roads
built straight into them. The south.
ern route that enters the state near
ldabel will be built across the state
connecting at right angles with the
main arteries leading north and south
and this southern route will be kept
one or two counties from Red river
that II might accommodate more people
than If 1t is allowed TO parallel this
dividing stream between Texas and
Oklahoma.
Ii Johnston county will build its road
from Tishomingo west To Mannsvile
and connect with the Carter county
federal aid project it will not only be
working IN conjunction with the federal
highway department but it will give 10
the people of its county connection with
The road that leads south TO Texas
through Madill. and north through Ok.
lahoma TO the capital al Ardmore and
on the east ii will have connection with
main north and south artery al Du.

CONSIDER NEW IDEA
Putnam School Officials Propose Amer
 ieaniratioa Program With Director

There k strong possibility that definite action will be taken by the school committee, at the special meeting to be held next Monday eve ming, on the proposal to do some Americanization work in Putnam. The plan is to secure the services of someone capable of carrying out such a program successfully, in coopera- ton with the State Board of Amefi- canization. in the hope and expeeta- ton of reducing illiteraey among the foreign born residents of the city. Lewis Battey Is mentioned as the right man for the position. If the school board decides to undertake such work, t would receive substantial financial assistance from the state.
 Al this special board meeting. con alteration will also be given to the question of conducting evening schools again this year. No decision about them has get been made. but will doubtless Monday. when the opening date will be fixed and other details set. tied upon.

Before long Putnam Lodge, No. 46. A. F. & A. NJ, will occupy the fourth different building in South Woodstock that it has used for quarters in the past fifty odd years. but this next move will be to it's own home-perma- nent rooms that have long been need ed and earnestly desired by lodge members The lodge has purchased a lot at the right of the driveway lead ing from the state highway in South Woodstock into the Woodstock fair grounds, and onto this lot will be nov ed the old Samuel Fenner store build ing, 30 rods away, which the lodge has purchased. The cellar Is being dug now, and in short time the founda- tions will be in and all ready for the building The moving of the Fenner structure will be undertaken by Frank Davis of Danielson, and is expected 10 be accomplished without difficulty. Lodge members hope that the new home will be ready for use shortly be- fore Christmas.

The condition of the build ing itself has also been a considera- tion in the decision to obtain new quarters.
