Granny, will your dog bite2
 "No, child, no;
 Daddy cut his bitter oil a long time ago."
 This little verse and hundreds more like it are being heard on many at Saturday night.
 The "hoe-down" has come back to land which once knew little other music than the timeless bal- lads of it's Kentucky, Tennessee and Arkansas hill country fore bears.
 At least 75,OO0 Oklahomans each week attend square dances held under the sponsorship of the mu- sic education department of the Works Projects Administration.
 Weekly Feature in 12 Towns
 Twelve Oklahoma cities and towns have regular weekly square dance festivals.
 Uncounted other thousands clap their hands and swing their part ners to the mellow tunes of the old-time f1ddlers.
 Square dancing had almost dis appeared, even in rural sections, few years ago.
 Now, according to WPA music education officials, it has been re- vived and is meeting with growing popular favor. Despite the trend toward revival, the tunes and calls" remain the same as they were hundred years ago-songs like Turkey in the Straw"
 One call which reveals its age goes like this:
 Waterbury watch and winding key,
 Sally got stung by a goggle- eyed bee"
 Then, this one may follow:
 Dance, dance, it ain't no sin;
 Dance out of church, you can join ag'in."
 Or perhaps:
 Lead your partner, meet her with a smile;
 "Once and a half and go hog wild"

GASOLINE STATUS
 IN NEW ENGLAND
Two s tates s Propose
 Stringent Curtailment, Third Cries For Relief

Boston, Aug. Stringent gasoline curtailment was proposed in two of the six New England states today while the governor of 8 third appealed for relief from further fill ing station 'blackouts" until the close of the vacation season.
 Gov. Sumner Sewall of Maine re- quested all gasoline stations in his state to close throughout. the next two Sundays because he said the present rate of consumption indi- cated gasoline supplies would be ex- hausted before the end of the month.
 Under Sewall's plan gasolin esta- tions would be closed from p. m. Saturday until a. m. Monday. The action would affect motorists re- turning from vacations during the three-day Labor Day weekend.
 In Massachusetts, Motor Vehicle Registrar Frank A. Goodwin an- nounced campaign to suspend n- censes of all motorists driving more than 40 miles an hour. High speeds, he said, cause increased conSump- tion of fuel.
 Gov. Robert O. Blood of New Hampshire appealed to Petroleum Coordinator Harold L. Ickes to re- frain from further drastic curtail- ment of supplies until after Labor Day. Blood said that rationing threats were causing tourists and vacationistS to Shun New Hamp- shire'S resorts and that resort pro- prietors faced business difficulties.
 In Boston six-point delivery pro- gram formulated by State gasoline conservation director David H. How ie was considered by milk compan- ies. The plan would provide delivery only in daylight hours with drivers walking much of their route and making few emergency calls.
