WISE RECOMMENDATIONS,

The platform adopted by the Ar
kansas Democratic Convention con
tainS the following wise rccommcn
datlonS: 1--WE declare for q sane and
forward looking policy of conScrva-
ton Of the natural resources with
which our State has been lavisilly
endowed. and to that end we insist
upon Legislation for the preServa.
ton and protection of our fish, game
timber. coal gas oil and water pow
cr against monODOliStic control.
and for the use of all the people.
lhc vast water power of the State
has too long been neglected. With
the diminishing supply of timber as
fuel and with the hazards and high
prices attending our coal supply. we
must turn to cheaper power and
heat. Every possible aid and en-
couragemcnt should be given the de
velopmcnt Of water power in our
great State, and we hereby declare
for such development"
Our forests and our water power
and two Of our greatest resources.
Our failure to so manage our forests
as to preserve a great part for fut
ure use is less than crime against
prosperity. The next Legislature
should provide for a commission
without salary to study the situation
and prepare and initiate a law to
protect our forests from unnecessary
destruction. Provision should at
once be made for deriving revenue
from oil and gas production. Okla
homa'S great schools owe their pro
grcss to revenue from oil and gas.
Liberal laws should be enacted to
enable capital to develop our water
power. and yet the public interests
should be amply Safcguarded. Fut-
urc generations will bless the mem.

Johns father was painting the
barn red. Just as soon as Billy
saw this he thought it was some
one trying to tease him and wave
red cloth before him, and he ran
and hit his horns against the barn
and Oh! but it did hurt. Billy said
to himself, 81 will examine things
after this before go ahead and hit

Johns father got some harness
for John and John thought it
would be fun to drive Billy, so
John hitched Billy UP. This was
the first time Billy was ever
hitched up, and he did not know
what to do, so he ran around the
barn lot and upset John, but it did
not hurt him. Soon after, Billy
was delighted to pull John and his
wagon.
Johns folks lived near a rail-
road. Billy was in the clover field,
but he crawled through the fence
and saw the first train that came.
Billy did not know what it was
and stood in the track, and the
train ran into him and killed him.

on some supper.
Everybody was talking friendly,
even Sandy, and his men were in

After supper was over and every

of his trusted men.
"All right, but it'll be purity risky

away.
The captain looked after him I'M

A Near Disaster
When Juniors Act
as Housekeepers
Dear Aunt Polly:

Dear Aunt Polly:
want to write you a letter and
tell you about our housekeeping
experiences.
Our father and mother and our
grandmother, who lives with us,
had to go to Greenville, o., during
the holidays, to attend q trial,
which lasted three days. We had
to stay all alone from 1880 till 5
o'clock in the evening. With our
older brother, who is Is, and our
baby brother Charles and our twin
brothers, Willis and Milton, aged
6, and our little sister Olive, age s,
Mother had to ieaye most of the
work for us to do, as they had to
start early. We had the milking
to do, and the dishes to wash, and
sweeping to do; and we had to get
our own dinners and had supper
ready and the work all done when
father and mother came home.
Brother was in a hurry for his
dinner one day and he built up
hot fire and left the damper open,
and the chimney caught fire and
brother climbed up on the house
and poured water in the chimney.
Wasn't that funny?
We made some candy, and Flos-
sic baked cake. which was real
good, but she spilled part of q new
bottle of cake coloring which mo-
Their had just bought
Our grandma stayed with us the
last day and we were pretty glad,
as it was very lonesome. From

A MISCHIEVOUS GOAT

John bought goat and named ii
Billy because most goats names
are Billy. He bought Billy from a
neighbour. John did not know that
Billy was mischieyous, but he soon
found it out. Billy was a very
beautiful goat. He was as white
as the snow and had long, sharp
horns.
One day, after John and Billy
were acquainted, John was teasing
Billy with branch from a fir tree
which, of course, Billy did not
like. So, he started after John,
but John ran in the house with
Billy after him. He crawled under
the stand that the gold fish were
on and upset them, and broke the
fish globe. Johns mother did not
like this. Then Johns father
chased Billy out of the house.
John did not want to tease Billy
any more.
Billy went out and was not quite
over his mad spell and ran to jump
over the fence and caught his foot
Then Johns father had to ruin his
fence to get Billy out. That was
the last time Billy tried to jump
the fence.

while he was a prince.
But all this time, the prince was
haunted by her face and kept
thinking about her until he de-

her home with him to his palace
and they reigned happily and
wisely for many, many years.

Jack, the Tease

One day, Jack went to party
that was being given by one of his
playmates. He liked very well to
tease.
When he got there he began
teasing Henry, the boy who was
giving the party, and Henry told
him his father would send him
back home if he didn't quit. So,
when they were eating their re-
freshments, Jack began teasing
Henry again. This time Henry
sent him home.
When he got home he looked be-
hind him, and saw big black
thing running towards him. He
was very frightened and ran back
to the house. Henry felt sorry
for him and he said he would go
with him. So, when they got half
way they saw the black thing
again, so they ran back. Henry
told Jack his father would take
him in the machine if he didn't
tease him any more, so Henry's
father took Jack home and Jack
never leased Henry again.-Doro-

ROBINSON cRusoE AS

SCREEN HERO
A wise writer once said: If you
want to do something worth while in
the world, please the children
Universal has done just this in Civ
ing to the screen 1.-THE Adventures of
the Bonita Theatre today. There is
Robinson Crusoe," which starts at
scarcely a boy or girl in the world who
has not read and been thrilled by the
life or the yenturesome Defoe hero.
They may have been deprived the adj
vantage of common school education
but by some hook or crook you can
count on them being familiar with
Crusoe, whether they are white, yell
low. red or black
In the eyes of children Crusoe for
many years has held the same position
as the heroes of history have with but
one difference-he es loved even more.
Little Johnny may moot be sure when
Columbus discovered America, but you
may count on him knowing IN chron-
illogical order the adventures of Rob-
inson Crusoe.
And because the escapades Of this
beloved hero furnish such wholesome
and inspiring entertainment for chill
dren, Universal took advantage Of its
popularity and has further immortal
lied the story by giving it to the world
in the universal language of the screen.
Though the story Of Robinson CRU
soc is partially ficticious the contin-
uity writer. Emma Bell Clifton, and
the director, Robert f. Hill, have
seized every opportunity to make il
educational as well as entertaining.
The resourcefulness Of Crusoe on the
desert island, the wonderful friend
ship between Crusoe and Friday and
the locale in foreign shores are vivid
and graphically instructive.
