A bank acquaintance is a line thlnp for a boy even as a boy
and especially when he is at the point where he begins to know
the value of money and is anxious to earn.
Young people who are taught to save become a credit to a
community because it makes them ambitious.'
Young people will take pride in looking on this institution as
their bank and they have the privilego of coming and going just
as much as they wish. 1

At Last A One-Adjustment
Cream Separator
BEFORE you buy any cream separator come In and
look at the Primrose. One adjustment is all that is
necessary to keep it in perfect operating condition at
all times. -This adjustment is a simple one (or keeping
the bowl at the correct height an adjustment that you
or your wife can safely make whenever it's necessary.
The adjustment is made from the outside of the separator
by either raising or lowering the bearing containing the
hardened steel point upon which the spindle revolves. A slight
turn with a screwdriver perhaps once a year does the work.
The Primrose is Vfell.conttnjcted close-slumming durable cream
separator. It will make a saving of $10.00 to $15.00 per cow in your herd
every year. k is made in four sizes to separate 350 to 850 pounds of milk
per hour or from about 40 to 98 gallons. Ask for a catalogue giving
complete description or come in and look over the Priaarose yourself.

Woodward Boosters
Coming.
Secretary Martih of the Woodward Chamber of
Commerce was here Tuesday making arrangements
for a visit of about One Hundred Woodward Boosters
who will visit Beaver next Tuesday May 22d. They
will come on a special train making stops along tlio
way and will arrive in Beaver for supper. They are
accompanied by a number of Katy oflicjals. A brass
band and a number of good speakers will be with them
and it is planned to have a big time in Beaver. Ar-
rangements are being made for a big supper for the
Boosters and they will be otherwise entertained in true
Beaver style which means that there will be no. half-
way business about it. Let all Beaver get into the
game as if they were a committee of one on entertain-
ment and when the Boosters arrive show them they
have found kindred spirits in Beaver in fact the people
who put the "Boost" in Booster. Don't forget May
22d. You people from the country come in and join
us. Some of our livest bopsters are among the farm-
ers. We want you here. Come in and enjoy the big
doin's.
WOODWARD DOOSTERS COMING
K. OF P'S. HAVE BIG TIME AT ENID.
About thirty-five members of the
Beaver K.'of P. lodge including the
degree team took in Urand Lodge of
that order at Enid last week. They
returned home all the way from Thurs
day to Saturday night. A big bunch
came in Friday evening and if the time
they had coming over from Woodward
is an indication of how they performed
on the entire trip (and we surmise that
was mild an compared to what they
djd before they were tired put with a
'week's soiree) they mutt have had one
big time. The team from Beaver ex-
emplified the work at Grand Lodge
and did it In such splendid fashion
that they were highly complimented
by the other lodges in attendance. It
was favorably mentioned that In view
of their efficiency they be sent to
General Grand Lodge. Bt Detroit.
That Beaver's team should put on the
work in such a splendid manner excel-
ling the teams of towns many times
the size of Beaver is a matter of whh h
the lodge here may well feel proud
Thoje who attended Grand Lodge
report a delightful time throughout
the entire session and generous hospi-
tality on the part of Enid to show the
visitors a good time.
STREETS BEIN6 IMPROVED
Work was commenced this week on
improving somo of the streets about
town and the curbs were dug out along
Douglas avenue. There is no question
but that there is great room for im-
provement of our streets In fact very
few of them have ever been opened
except by wagon trails lie re and there
but one thing should be borne in mind
in investing money in street work
and that is tkat the work should be
done as far as possible in a permanent
manner and if paid for out of city
funds that the work be distributed
fairly among property owners.
At this time some good work is be
ing done on Jewett avenue property
owners along -the street paying for
same. Residents of other streets in
town would do well to follow the
example of those of Jewett.
MIL HURT IN ACCIDENT.
Superintendent of Schools Hill met
with a painful acoident while attend-
ing the track meet at Liberal Kansas
last week. In witnessing the discus
throw' he thought he was out of range
of all possible danger but one of the
contestants so far out-distanced in the
throw what anyone was expecting that
the discus went out in the crowd and
Mr.IIill was struck on the shoulder and
back of the head a gash some three
inohes long being cut in the head. The
shoulder was struck first and the force
of the throw was spent before the dls-
eus struok the head otherwise the ac-
cident might easily have proven fata).
Ac it was. auite a wouad was inflicted
which took several stitches to close.
Bearer people certainly' rejoice that
the accident terminated as luckily as
it am.
NO DISTRICT COURT
The special term of District Court
called -for Hay 14th and ISth was
postponed. There will probably be no
further Di6trlct Court until September.

The time of the year when as a
Nation we pay tribute to our heroes of
the conflict oi IBOl-'O-) isdrawing near.
Memorial Sunday is May 27th and
Decoration Day' May 30th.
This year of all years It seems to us
should be the time when there will
not be one thing left undone to prove
our patriotism and to do honor to the
memory of those who so richly deserve
the btt that we can do. Being just
on the verge nf another bonlllctwMch
may mean even grrater sacritlce and
hardship than endured during the days
of the Civil war it seem that 'our
blood should be stirred and tingling
with the fire of patriotism and that we
should make the commemoration of
Decoration Day 1017 one of the most
stirring ever celebrated in Heaver.
Arrangements will be In charge df W.
T. Quinn and the editor of The Herald
as usual and we earnestly nek and ex-
pect the hearty co-operation and assist-
ance ot everyone in making the occa-
sion a succpsb Let all do their bit by
offering their assistance and doing the
things they are charged to do A pro
gram of the exercises will appear next
week. Look for it and if your name is
among those assigned to duty don't
be a slacker.
