3e Carsftil With
Fire Arms
Some people are entirely too
careless with fire arms. Nearly
every week some farmer is com-
plaining apout having some
stock shot, and now comes a
complaint of shooting toward a
house. Last Thursday morning
while Mrs. John Crum wTas £io-
ing from the well toward the
house a bullet passed so near her
that for a second she was stun-
ned. She said that it passed
right by her head and a moment
afterward she heard the report
of a gun. Such shooting is care-
lessness pure and simple, and if
those parties who wish to hun^
do not be more careful we be-
lieve it will be the duty of every
farmer to post his farm and to
prosecute all hunters who do not
gain permission before going on
the land hunting. The loss ol" a
cow or horse through careless
shooting is quite a financial loss
and the loss of a human life by
careless shooting cannot be at-
toned for. The "mark of Cain
is upon him that carelessly uses
fire arms.

Christian Sunday School Notes
On account of the bad weatner
last Sunday the attendance at
Sunday school was small.
Next Sunday Rev. Anthis will
be be with us and the day has
been set for the aid of home mis-
sions which includes the mission-
ary work in the state of Okla-
homa alone. It was agreed last
Sunday that next Sunday's col-
lection be used for that purpose.
We hope everyone will be
there. Please remember Sun-
day school promptly at 10 o'clock
and preaching at eleven.

Four Days Snow Fall
The four days of coutinuous |
snow fall here is a record break -1
er for November in Oklahoma, j
| The sky has been continuously ;

week, the sun breaking through
'a while early Tuesday morning.
I The temperature, has oeen rath-

| siderable moisture has resulted
I from the snow and if the weather
i opens up the growing wheat will
I relieve the feed situation here

Patrons Kick On R. F, D,
Mail Service
The patrons of the Lockridge j
rural free delivery route are rnak-
, ing some objections to the ser-
! vice they are' being given by1
I their carrier. We have had a
number of complaints lately
; about not getting the Indepen-

i there is also some complaint

jfirst class mail. We trust they
will soon get better service from
i their carrier, if he is at fault, as
we are doing our best to get the
paper there on time.
For Sale—a full line of farm
implements, woven fence wire,
from 26 to 58 inches, and furnish
tools to erect it. G. T. Stone.
