On Wilson, and Will Curb Pro-German '
Press—Embarrassing the
Fatherland.
■HHHHRR959S3"!! i
'a •
Washington, May 15.—The German
press of the United States will be in-
formed within the next twenty-four
hours that the critical attitude assum-
ed toward the administration of Pres-
ident Wilson is distasteful to the Ger-
man imperial government. Count von
Bernstorff, the German ambassador,
will let it be known through private
connections, but not through any pub-
lic announcement, that the activities
of the German-American press in the
United States in the recent crisis has
been in the last degree prejudcial to
the best interests of the fatherland,
and are largely responsible for the de-
velopment of anti-German sentiment
in the United States.
Such newspapei's as the New York
Staats Zeitung, the Illinois Staats Zei-
tung of Chicago, the New Yorker
Herold, the Westliche Post of St.
Louis, the German Demokrat of Phil-
adelphia and others, have followed the
lead of Doctor Dernburg, rather than
taking their tips from the German em-
bassy at Washington and after seri-
j mi1! deliberations, the ambassador has
j come to the opinion that only through
| direct intimation from him could this
! attitude of the press be changed.
| This determination on the part of
| Ambassador von Bernstorff came to
j light today. The first suggestion that
j the idea was working in his mind was
! open change in the attitude of the
I German embassy toward Doctor Dern-
I burg. It was permtted to become
known that the German imperial em-
bassy washed its hands of Dernburg
and would be greatly relieved if that
distinguished propagandist would pack
his belongings and transfer his activ-
ities to some less important neutral
territory than the United States.

Psychologists say that 87% of all
we learn comes thru the eye. This
fact is being utilized in many cities
and in some states by a department of j
"Visual Instruction." Oklahoma is;
the first state to attempt its intro-1
duction into rural schools. The exten-
sion Division of the University will
offer the following Visual Instruction
service for six months of nex year—|
October to March.
Typewritten lectures will be sent to1
each school subscribing for the service j
i which are to be memorized by the:
| teacher or some one appointed by him. •
Once each month a set of stereopticon
slides is sent illustrating one of the
lectures which is to lie delivered as the .
slides are shown. Following this will
be about 20 minutes of thc finest mov-
ing pictures.
The Universitv Extension will also
employ several fine music instructors
who will be sent to any community de-
siring them. For full particulars con-
cerning this work, address J. W.
Scroggs, Director University Exten-
sion, Norman, Oklahoma.

high school, and you are giving encouragement to the
better things that go to make up our social life.

CHISHOLM PLEADS GUILTY
'Red" Chisholm, arrested Friday
night charged with bootlegging, plead-
ed guilty to the charge in county
court this morning and was sentenced
by Judge Wolf to thirty days in jail
and $50 fine. Attorney Tom Mayfield
was his lawyer, and evidently decided
the evidence was so strong against
him that it was useless to try to fight
the case; that it would be cheaper and
better to "take his medicine" and have
it over with. Doubtless it will be his
last offense.
