NORMAN, OKLAHOMA, THURSDAY, JULY 17, 1919.
PRICE FIVE CENTS.
COUNTY COURT
NOWIN SESSION
The July, 1919, term of county
court convened at 9 o'clock a. m.
Thursday, July 17th, at the court
house, with County Judge Allen
presiding. The following Jurors
were questioned as to their quali-
fications and accepted.
J. R. Bridgwater, Leo Ullman,
A. S. Turbyfill, W. F. Emery, C.
W. Vaughn, W. A. Keeble, Ray
Fischer, J. H. Martin, W. R. Fin-
igan, J. A. Vincent, A. R. Barton,
Geo. Orenbaun, Robert Muldrow
and J. H. Jack. A number who had
been called to act as jurors were
excused on account of having
very necessary work at home.
The cigarette cases against the
proprietor and clerks at the Ter-
minal cafe are being tried Thurs-
day afternoon. They are charged
with selling cigarettes to Illinois.
The three cases against Frank
Wolf will be tried on Friday. He
is charged in one case with being
intoxicated in a public pile; a:."i
the other two charge him with vi-
olating the prohibitory law. Th re
are also several other important
cases to be tried.
COME, GET YOUR APRONS.
Mrs. E. J. Keller, secretary of
the local Red Cross board, re-
quests that all ladies who have not
called for their aprons that were
used in surgical dressing will do
so at once, for after this week
they will otherwise be disposed of.
CO. EXCISE BOARD
The Transcript is informed that
it was in error in its publication
in Wednesday's issue that the
Board of County Commissioners
are the county excise board. The
board really consists of:
C. F. Cox, county commissioner.
Ernest Helms, county clerk
Geo. Allen, county judge.
Jim Corbett, county treasurer.
W. E. Barnard, county assessor.
Tom Cheat wood, county attor-
ney.
W. R. Clark, county supt.
These men will meet on 26th
of July as the excise board and
make the appropriations and fix
rates, provided the state board
of equalization reports to it by
that time—otherwise it will ad-
journ from day to day until it
hears from the state board. It is
understood in well informed cir-
cles that the state board is con-
sidering raising the valuation of
all real estate in the state 40 per
cent above the figures placed up-
on it by the county assessors.
Notice of Charter
Primary Election
If the gentleman or lady who
sent a communication to the
Transcript criticising its sins of
omission and commission will
send his or her nagie, which he or
she forgot to append to the ar-
ticle, the matter of publishing will
be considered. The Transcript
does not publish annonymous
communications, unless it knows
the writer—not
necessarily, but
good faith.

. matter of
The Uni. Theatre Lease: Ac-
cording to Ray Berry, owner of
the University theatre, his lease
of those premises does not expire
for a long time after January 1,
1920, and he hopes to retain pos-
session of the room. "I need it
for my business," he says.
W. W. WARREN BUYS
THE VARIETY SHOP
Geo. M. Davis, having conclud-
ed to get into the oil game exten-
sively, having been quite success-
ful at it, has sold his stock of va-
riety goods to W. W. Warren,
who is moving it today from the
McMackin building to the room
next to Mayfield's drug store
formerly occupied by the J. G
Williams' store. Mr. Warren will
add to the stock extensively, and
will be open for business in a
few days.
Mr. Davis bought the variety
stock from Roy Carter about a
year ago and has built up a fine
patronage, making a good success
of it—but thinks he has something
better in the oil business. The
Transcript wishes both Warren
and Davis the best of success.
Mayor's Office, Cily of Norman,
Oklahoma:
Whereas, The City Charter for
the City of Norman, Oklahoma,
adopted by a majority pf the legal
voters of the City of Norman, Ok-
lahoma, at the special .'election
held in said City on the 26th day
of June, 1919, was on the 11th

and approved by the Governor of
the State of Oklahoma as provid-

in said city on the Fourth Tues-
day after the adoption and ap-
proval of laid Charter by the
Governor, for the nomination of
a city treasurer and five commis-
sioners as provided in vid Char-
ter.
Now, therefore, I, S. W. Hutch-
in, mayor in and for the City of
i Norman, Oklahoma, do ihereby
call a primary election to held
in the City of Norman, Oklahoma,
and in each and every ward and
voting precinct in said City, on
Tuesday, the 5th day of August,
1919, for the nomination of a city
treasurer and five commissioners
as provided in said Charter, said
primary election to be held and
conducted under the provisions of
the general laws of the state of

B. F. Clay, Jr., City Clerk.
Don't forget the game of base
ball between the Dodgers and
Red Sox at the Ci.'y Park grounds
Thursday evening. The Transcript
don't wish them any bad luck, but
cannot but hope that they'll get
rained out. A good soaking rain
would be mighty acceptable.
0. C, ROTARY CLUB
WILL ENTERTAIN
NORMAN ROTARY
The Oklahoma City Rotary
Club has issued a cordial and
pressing invitation to the No-man
Rotarians to be their guests at an
elaborate function to be held at
Country Club in Oklahoma City
on tlu night of Tuesday, July 22,
and the invitation has been ac-
cepted. The Norman members ate
invited to bring their wopicn
folks, and there will probably be
something like thirty couples from
here. They will probably go in
automobiles, but may secure a
special car on the interurban,
which seems the safest and best
plan.
The Oklahoma City club of Ro-
tarians is composed of some of
the best business men of that city;
high up in business, social and pro-
fessional circles. Their wives and
daughters will be present at the
reception and banquet and do all
in their power to entertain the
Norman ladies in an appropriate
manner. The program will consist
of some fine talks by Norman and
Oklahoma City men, splendid
music, an elaborate banquet and
probably a dance.
