SENATOR BURTON OF OHIO
Senator Burton of Ohio one of the
big men of the i^t'on and recognized
as a real* statesman and leader, will
be in Norman next Tuesday, coming
d©wn from Oklahoma City at 10
o'clock and remaining until 1 o'clock.
He comes primarily as the guest
of the young men of the University
Republican club and will talk to that
body at a luncheon to be given at the
Varsity Shop, according to present ar-
rangements. An effort will be made,
however, to have him make an ad-
dress and meet our citizens at some
down-town place.
Mr. Burton is one of that class of
men whom all denght to honor, re-
WATSON'S AVAR PAINT.
Atlanta, Ga., Sept. 21.—Thomas
E. Watson, who was chiefly respon-
sible for the success of Hugh M.
Horsey, prosecutor of Leo M. Frank,
in the recent gubernatorial primary,
has made a demand on Dorsey that
there snail be no indorsement of
President Wilson by the state Demo-
cratic convention which meets next
Tuesday to formally nominate Dorsey
for governor and adopt a platform.
Watson had informed Dorsey that
resolutions condemning the Wilson
administration should be adopted, but
if it is impossible to put such resolu-
tions through, then the convention
must remain silent about the presi-
dent.
Dorsey is not in Georgia now, but
some of his friends assert he will re-
fuse to obey Watson.
The inflammatory use Watson made
of the Frank case was undoubtedly
the chief factor in Dorsey's success.
This week's issue of Watson's paper
is filled with attacks on the Jews,
Roman Catholics and President Wil-
GRADES OF COTTON.
What do you know about the dif-
ferent grades of cotton?
If you do not know much, you can
learn a whole lot by calling at the
First National bank and seeing sam-
ples of the standard grades. They
are in nine boxes, one box to a grade,
each containing twelve samples, and
were sent to Jas. Lawrence, county
demonstrator, by the A. & M. col-
lege at Stillwater, who received them
direct from the agricultural depart-
ment at Washington. They are the
real grades, official cotton standards,
.fearing the stamp of the Federal deT
partment, and make a most interest-
ing display.
The grades are: Middling Fair,
Strict Good Middling, Good Middling,
Strict middling, Middling, Strict Low
Middling, Low Middling, Strict Good
Ordinary, and Good Ordinary.
Everybody in Norman will meet
everybody tonight at 7:30 sharp in
Edwards Park to hear one of the
best concerts given this season. The
program will close promptly at 8:30
j to give everybody a chance to visit
! the several stores that will have
! many attractions to offer.
i Shake hands with all the students,
and bid them welcome to the "Uni-
versity City."
Automobile owners are requested
to park their cars before the concert
begins until after ihe concert is over.

Keep down the surplus gas tonight.
And your kindness will be appreciated
, by all.

ATTACKS REPULSED.
Paris, Sept. 22.—German infantry
advancing in waves made renewed ef-
forts this morning to beat back the
French from positions recently cap-
tured north of the Somme. The of-
ficial announcement of today says the
attacks were broken by French artil-
lery before the Germans reached the
French lines, compelling them to re- |
tire to their own trenches after sus- i
taining heavy losses.
The attacks of the Germans made in
strong force were centered on the
French position between Le Priez
farm and Rancourt.
The British advanced on a front of
about a mile last night in the Somme
sector south of the Ancre river. The
British war office announced today
that two lines of hostile trenches have
been captured.
French and Serbian troops operat-
ing along the western end of the
Macedonian front have scored new,
succeses against the Bulgarians, the
war office announced today.
Serbian troops, continuing their ad-1
vance along the Broda river, have :
reached the neighborhood of Urbani,
where 100 prisoners were taken.
North of Fiorina a Bulgarian at-
tack was broken up by the fire of the
French infantry.
As a result of heavy engagements, j
the entente forces were able to make j
progress on the heights dominating
the road from Fiorina to Poplli.
The Bulgarian statement of today ;
says fighting has taken place.
Only minor on all the Bulgarian
fronts with no change in the general !
given out in Sofia says that only |
minor situation.
British warships have been bom- j
barding Bulgarian positions in the vi-
cinity of Neohori on the east bank of
the struma near its mouth, northeast
of Saloniki, the British war office an-
nounced today. On the left of the
British position on the Macedonian
f ront in the Doiran region an artillery
i duel of increasing intensity is in
progress, says the statement.
FINE COMPLIMENT
Roy Carter, of the Carter Nickel
Store, received a fine compliment yes-
terday in the shape of a letter from
Butler Bros, asking him to attend the
Dallas Fair and be one of their repre-
sentatives and salesmen in their big
store at that point during that period.
All of his railroad expenses are paid
and he is given $4.00 per day for ex-
penses.
Needless to say he intends to go—
if he can get Mrs. Carter's consent.
—Mother: We have our new Fall
line of Children's Hats in. Call in
and let us show you.—Frank Ephraim.
—Valley Neaves was here from
Oklahoma City yesterday and left last
night for Wynnewood. He will
manage a box-ball alley for Jim
Shears at Davis. During the past
season he has been managing the
Shear's alley at Belle Isle, and Jim
says he never had a more efficient,
honest employe. The season at Belle
Isle has closed.

City, is the guest of her sister, Mrs.
N. II. Edwards.
