Vardanan,
'Hlarnn: Yardaman opposed President Will

Vardaman.
Vardaman opposed President Will
sons appointment of a negro as
judge of the court of claims in Wash
ington. He thought 1t not right that
negro should preside over a court
where white lawyers and other men
and women come. He opposed the
choice Of negro as registrar of
deeds. He insisted upon separate
compartments for white women and
negro men in the civil service. There
was rally Of the white clerks to
bring this about. But they couldn't
get a white man to speak. The
Northern white men were afraid of
the negro vote. Southern politicians
thought 1t wise to keep clear of the
issue. <Vardaman made the address
of the occasion-said to have been
masterpiece-andt the desired sep
aration was brought about in conse-
quence.
Vardaman asked President Wilson
to loan $3.50, 100000 on Southern
cotton when the cotton market was
demoralized at the beginning of the
World War. Wilson refused. But
the next week President Wilson's in
fiuence secured Wall Street loan of
$400,0 100000. Was Vardaman rep
resenting you? Was he loyalP Was
he a Democrat?
Wilson opposed the bonus. Var
daman thought that the boys who
went abroad should have it. 1t would
disorganize finance - while others
profteered, robbed and stole.
Wilson changed his mind about
the tolls at Panama. Then he got
angry because Vardaman didn't
change his.
Stephens opposed the draft law.
Vardaman opposed the draft law.
There had never been an army rails
ed by draft before. In the norta
when in the course of the war a
draft was resorted to, there was riot
after riot. LET them volunteer"
said Vardaman. IF you don't get
enough then use the draft"
When the war came on, Vardaman
was old and experienced enough to
know in the depths of his heart what
the vacant chair and the wall of wo-
men and children would mean. He
had sympathy and courage and man
hood to back them up. If he made
a mistake, he made it on the side of
manhood, womanhood and childhood.
Give us officers that make mistakes
in behalf of the masses! When Var
daman makes mistakes, he'll make
them for your benefit.
President Wilson has been called
the wounded soldier Of the war;
There is another soldier wounded
In the war of the people. He had
manhood to bear the brunt of the
battle for twenty-five years. He
fought and bled for you. He has
been assailed with the poison gas of
calumny. He has sacrificed every
thing for the cause Of right. He
never cast vote that took a single

BASKET BALL PRACTICE
STARTS TODAY, LOOKOUT

What promises to be one of the
greatest basket ball seasons in the
history of S. T. c. started Monday.
The prospects are for team that can
not be defeated. Coach Hatley is one
of the best basket ball coaches in the
Southwest and will whip his men
rapidly in shape for the season.
Coach Hatley developed a winning
team at Caney, Oklahoma for a high
school with less than forty students.
This team won the Southeastern dis
trict championship and represented
this district at the state meet, losing
to Tulsa the state champions. Last
year he took charge Of the Lindale
Texas high school basket ball team
and put out a team that never lost a
game. winning the state championship
from ElPaso, which team had not lost
a game in eight years. A man with
record like that cannot fail to de-
velop in Southeastern a winning
team.
A schedule has been arranged
which will include the important
colleges Of Oklahoma, Texas and
Arkansas.

FRUIT AN IMPORTANT
PART OF HUMAN DIET
Old Adage Says "An Apple day
Will Keep The Doctor Away"

CBy DR.. A. r. Lewis, State Health
Commissioner.
There is an old adage which says
IAN apple day will keep the doc
tor away
\ great many people cat very lit
tie or no fruit, looking on it as lux
ury. There are many good reasons
why we should eat fruit daily. All
fruits contain certain salts of or
ganic acids. which have more or
less stimulating action on the kid
ncys, and some. such as pears, figs
and prunes, have a laxative effect.
Fruit also furnishes certain indi-
gcstible or roughage, which tends to
retain water in the intestines and
thus helps to regulate the bowels.
Children's physicians recommend
that ali babies Of the age Of six
months should be given small
amounts of mild fruit Juice, or to-
matO juice daily. This is particu-
larly necessary in the case Of infants
fed on cows milk, or other prepared
milk foods. Unless one of these
juices is given. a disease known as
"Scurvey" may develop. The mild
form of this disease often passes
unrecognized for time, being noted
only in the slowing up of the growth
Of the child later on.
Bananas are a fresh fruit nearly
always attainable, high in food val
ne, low in price and easy to prepare.
Digestive difficulties may possibly
arise from eating them too green, too
fast. or too many at a time. I'm
ripe bananas baked in the skin may
take the place of a vegetable in a
meal.
A great deal can be said and
should be said in favor of the use
of dried fruits. These are often
badly cooked and for that reason are
not liked. or as commonly used as
they should be. Cook very slowly
for a long time. No sugar should
be added during cooking, but when
thoroughly done should be moderate
ly sweetened. The addition of few
slices of lemon when cooking usual
ly gives dried fruit an agreeable
flavor.
People as a rule eat too little fruit
and they will find their general
health greatly benefited if they will
add some kind of fresh or dried fruit
to their daily ration.
