Control your speech and spirit under
all conditions, ever when the changing
din around you urges you to trumpet
tongued retorts.
When the storms of mischief-mak-

to tremble with apprehension, hold
your peace.

Curb resentment through the snarl-

whirllng clouds, and remember that
beyond them there is always the clear,
serene sunlit sky, Indifferent TO the
clamorous noises below.
LET not your heart be troubled"
Think of the content that will Ill

to the right course and continue in
well doing.
Think of the eyes that are watch

Do nothing, think nothing and say
nothing that will shake their faith in
you, or cause you to lose faith in
yourself.
BY keeping still In great stresses
of emotion the atmosphere around you
becomes cooler, and your enemies or
accusers gradually lose their heat and
become more easily susceptible to
reason.
Silence is the most magnificent and
impressive thing In the universe.
What more sublime than the hush
Of a starry night in the solitude of
vast hills or endless plains?
What more than silence impresses

These close intimacies with Nature,
beyond all others, bring home to us
long forgotten promises, old faces and
friendships lost In the mist of years,
with startling clearDess.
But the best thing about silence,
whether we be with it in the verdured
fields or forest, or in our own rooms,
is that we get a closer view of our
faults and frailties in quite a new
and surprising light, frequently daz-
cling our wondering eyes and changing
us for the better.

Oklahoma had its beginnings eighty
eight years ago, when Indian territory
was formed as a permanent home for
the redskins. The Cherokees were re-
moved to the future prosperous state
in 1885. and were soon followed by
the Choctaws, Creeks, Chickasaws and
Seminoles. These constituted the Five
Civilized Tribes. Many of their de
scendants have become wealthy and in
fluential citizens. In addition to the
five civilized tribes" other Indians
were given lands in the territory. In
1866 the Creeks coded the western part
of their territory, and the Seminoles
all of theirs to the United States. and
these were Incorporated with No Mans

dian territory maintained a separate
government under its original form un-
til 1906. when 1t was incorporated with
Oklahoma and admitted as "a state

CHAUFFER KILLED
OTHERS INJURED
Fatal Crash OF Two Automobile
On The du POnt Boulevard In
Sussex County

Eugene Hays. colored, aged 40
years, of Wilmington, was instantly
killed on the du Pont highway at
Davidson's Branch, between George
town and Stockley, Sunday mornin'
Hays was driving a Cadillac for Rob
ert Jackson, and in the car at tn,
time were Mr.. jackson, aged about 60
years; Mrs. Louise Balance, aged 72,
and her granddaughter, Miss Carrie
Bell, aged 35, both residents of 600
East Eighth Street, Wilmington.
They were on their way from Will
mington to the home of William Bell,
a brother of Miss Bell, who resides in
Piney Neck, near Dagsboro.
When the accident occurred, James
Wood, Georgetown drug clerk, who
was out riding in a Ford touring car,
had just made the turn out of a woods
road to go on the du Pont road, when
the Jackson car, going at high rate
of speed, collided with him. The inn
pact was so great that Woods car
was knocked over guard rail about
four feet high, into the woods dis
tance of fifty feet, and landed in the
stream. The car is almost a total
wreck, but Wood escaped injury.
The Jackson car turned turtle twice
and pinned Hays beneath it, tearing
away portion of his head and scat
tering his brains on the road.
Jackson sustained severe cut
about the eye, injuries to the head
and side and is in a serious condition.
Mrs. Balances right arm was broken,
and she had cuts about the head and
face, while Miss Bell was badly hurt
about the side and hips.
Mr.. jackson insists that he is not
seriously hurt, but it is believed he
suffered internal injuries. The iniur-
ed were treated by DIR. Frank Jones,
of Georgetown.
The car in which they were riding
was undamaged. The smaller ma
chine, however, was complete wreck,
and was not even taken to a garage.
