DAILY and the Dag0 Man

"Tom" DAILY, the poet, humorist, and
American, has the right idea of American
ization. AS matter of History most Irish
men have. Someone has said that when the
Irish sight the statue of Liberty, another
American is voting. This idea does not pre-
vail among some of our select visitors, how
ever. 1t takes long time to make an Amer
ican out of a Britisher, still longer, for Ger
man. In fact, he hasn't got the idea entirely
yet. But an Irishman, while never forgetting
the old Isle of his youth, makes a quick
change in his citizen allegiance. DAILY, Irish
as the map itself and proud of his heritage,
has found America back of the Dago speech
By studying him, both learned and were bet
ter. The Italian makes a good American
when approached by the kindness, love and
sunshine of our country fields and lanes. The
poets Interpretation of our Mediterranean
friends, is real Americanization. With Daly
and his "Dago Man" working together
America is and is still to be!

Vacant Chair at GeuOa

Smoothly courteous but bluntly final is the
note OF Secretary Hughes announcing that
the United States will not take part in the
Genoa conference of April 10. We will not
go to Genoa for the good and sufficient rea
sons that we do not care to mix in Old World
political quarrels nor to have any hand in
halt-screened attempt to aid Russia under
cover OF bargain with the soviets.
There is no good reason for our going to
Genoa. Inc proposed program does not suit
us. we had asked Europe to put her house
IN order and we would then be glad to helm.
The Genoa conference ignores and evades a
"housecleaning." *
We do not care to take hand in one of
Lloyd Georges political poker games. Calling
1t an economic and industrial conference"
Tools nobody. We are not going to recognize
Ine sovlets. AT the same time, however, we
serve warning on the world that there must
be an "open door, in Russia as well as in
China. We have given notice Europe can not
recoup itself by forming close corporation
to loot the Russian torehouse.-Philadelph

Booster Day Committee


Booster Day and Dollar Day-April 1918,
Thev are here. The Committee in charge de-
serve the congratulations of the Community.
They have worked hard. Every town, hamlet
and country road and lane for miles about
have been posted-even down as far as Provi-
dence, c. B. Dean has been, and called atten-
tion to these days. Their work is about done
the success now depends on the town or
ganizations. The Parade tonight will tell the
story of cooperation that prevails. Tomor-
row morning the Committee will have the
u. S. Director of the Bureau of Markets
who will discuss market problems of interest
to producer and consumer. 1t is a really
worth while event and should mean much to
the business interests of the town. Consid-
erng the length of time the Committee has
done wonders and the whole Chamber of
Commerce should give them every encourage
ment possible.

Easter

Easter is more than on Annie Uersdry; 1t
is the Hone of man. 1t is the day that Greed
and Nature commune. The old Anglo-Saron
celebrated 1t I'M festival, honoring the 1nystac
Goddess of Light, Flo9Oers and Spring:
Christians boaU to it I'M reverent memory OF
the Resurrection. Atheist and Icomoclast even
sneak qvith reverence of Easter and ddnaat the
Hone 1T INSPIRES. Agnostics stand mute m
confessed Ignorance and IN the honest 6tatr OF
thozqht almost catch glinonaer of the Light
of q Neav Day. 1t is proof that there IS no
death. Greed and Nature proclaim ResMrrec-
tion. Christians rejoice, "On the third day,
He arose"; Nature at this season proclalms,
"L5fe Everlasting" Whatever creed, a0hat-
ever School of Philosophy, belie0ing IN the
human or Divine conception of The Man OF
GalHee-it matters not, there IS ON Easter
thought and Easter Day for. all men.
Whether In meditation of the Lenten Sea-
SON or out IN Natures Great Outdoor, there
IS an Easter. Whether Sounding praise IN
prayer and song or kneeJing IN mental otte-
tude u1ader "roof fretted o0jth golden fire.,
there is an Easter. Music from Cathedral
choir, songs from the trees, toa0ers, sunshine
oil proclaim Easter.
Faith and Destiny agree. Earth ana
Heaven mipgJe IN Cheer aohile God and No

Then Praise Gnd blessing this Easter

VIC LAST CHRISTMAS
SAILING FOR STATES

The Postoffice advises the pub
lie that the Victoria will be the last
boat sailing south that will reach
Seattle in time for the packages to
be delivered before Christmas. Upon
the arrival Of the Victoria from the
south 1t will be necessary for the
postoffice force to work a twelve
day mail which will be exceptionally
large and require great deal OF
time to handle and prepare for the
public, and at the same time the
boat will remain to the westward
but a short time so it will be ad-
visable for you to mail your Christ
mas package before the boat arrives
from the south.
Want to make this Christmas happy?
Mail 'em early! Make 1t snappy,
Early to buy-early to mail
Early to reach the end Of the trail.

new PROPOSALS
FOR CORDOVA'S
COURT HOUSE

The local Chamber ct Commerce
received the following wire from
Delegate Dan Sutherland yesterday:
THE Treasury Department will
call for bids on the Cordova public
building, extending over period
OF four months or until the middle of
March. Specifications will be the
same as those already published, SO
that local bidders may figure at
once"
Acting Supervising Architect Wet
more gives more details, In answer
to telegram and letter sent him by
the Chamber of Commerce, relative
to the new Federal building. He
says: "You are advised in regard
to the appropriation that while the
amount is 100000. not all of this
sum is available for the construction
contract, it being necessary to set
aside the amounts estimated to be
required for certain items for which
separate contracts will be awarded:
Such as lock boxes, vault shelving,
exterior lighting fixtures, lobby
desks, etc. After providing for such
items, it would not be safe to award
a contract in excess of approximate
|ly $4,000.
1.-THE only bid received under the
recent advertisement was in amount
s11O,300 and is therefore approx
mately $4,000 in excess of the
amount available"

EDITORIAL
OF THE DAY
HEALDTON'S MILESTONE

Nine years is not much age to brag
about. But when you are an oil field
and look as healthy and run as heavy
as the day you came in, nine years Is
something TO boast about and every
anniversary thereafter is a compliment
The first we'll in the Healdton field
was drilled in August 6, 1918 and every
anniversary since that date has marked
the passing of a wonder year for Heald-
ton, which makes Carter county rich
and all other counties except the Cush'
ings and the Kays and the Osages and
the Tulsas and the Okmulgees, envious.
Healdton has been one OF Oklahoma's
most prolific fields. Up to July /, 1922,
Healdton had produced in round fig
ures 1l5.9S6,262 barrels Of oil. There
are approximately 1870 acres in the
field. There are properties in Heald-
ton that have yielded as high as $4,000
barrels an acre during the life of the
field.
All Of the wealth turned out in the
Healdton area OF Carter county has
been taken from sands which run at a
depth Of from 1000 to 5000 feet.
There are three deep tests now drill
ing as a result of the finding of a good
showing of oil at 2,74O feet. These
deep tests will have. much to do with
doubling the life of Healdton. II there
are good producing sands at 200 to
5000 feet, the whole Healdton area will
be drilled.
Healdton has some good producing
years ahead OF her in her present lev
els. but a producing deep sand would
send Healdton quickly to the top of the
list OF Oklahoma fields in activity and
production.
Oklahoma congratulstes Healdton on
her ninth oil bearing anniversary and
hopes the eighteenth anniversary will
find her still flowing strong.-Oklaho.

THE REFEREE
Liquor.

The prohibition law in Ontario, Can
ada, allows horse doctors two quarts
of liquor day. to be used at their dis
erection. While believing in kindness
to dumb animals, it requires an elastic
imagination to conceive Of an ailing
horse needing whisky, brandy or gin.
Maybe it's a precaution. to insure a
square deal for the horse. A horse is
harder to doctor than a man, for he
can't describe his symptoms. Man,
blessed with the power of speech, has
no difficulty suggesting connection
between a prescription and what ails
