Dam the Stream
"You take in a 1( t of money young man"
says Samuel Saveit "but you spend it all. There
is a constant stream of money passing through
your hands. If you would dam that stream you
would soon got ahead. I'll toll you how to dam it.
Simply run it into a good bank and check it out as
.needed. This will retard the flow."
This bank sanctions the foregoing advice and
invites you to doposit your whole income here and
then check it out as required. That's ono sure
way of retarding the flow of the stream of ex-
( pense. It costs you no'-hlng to try it.

JUDGE N. W. PUGH IN RACE FOR
STATE SENATOR
The name of Judge Pugh of Cimar-
ron county is linked with every syncv
nym of honesty integrity and the high-
est morality. The writer has known
him intimately ever since he came to
Oklahoma a dozen years ago. Altho
not members of the same political par-
ty we have been closely related in
many public works and we have al-
ways found in him a man In every
sense the word implies. We know of
no words of praise that would carry
mare weignt wj mu minning voier.
He was the first county judguof
Cimarron county after statehood and
held that office as long a ho wanted
it. Two yean ago he came out for re-
presentative extending .hs j&cle of
friend to a larger radius. This year
he is asking to represent the senatorial
district In our state legislature and
we are not backward in saying that
Ihla Tictory will be the easiest yet. Tt
'a a credit to a man in politics to live
so elean a life that he counts his
friends in both parties. We have
nothing but words of praise for Judge
Pugh. Guymon Herald (Republican)

.Beaver County's Candidate for District Judge
Whether or net I em elected diatrict judge in the coming election ie net ao vital te me aa
the vote I receive in my home county aa thia vote ia a fair index to the estimation placed ea
the integrity of a candidate hy hia neighbor regardlesa of political leaninga and my name ap-
pearing on the atate ticket wild I em afraid cauae many ef my friend to overlook the district
judge race- -
In the democratic primary againat a strong opponent I carried every tti:ri precinct in
thia county two without an adverse vote and my home box by a ratio of 9 to 1. )
Let me aak you: If you needed help on your farm or in your place of business and the
applicant could shew from your neighbors for whom he had worked aa strong recommenda-
tions aa ie evidenced by the above vote would you go 150 away and employ a comparative
stranger because hie political beliefs were different?
If I am elected and you have business In my court would you expect me to inquire aa to
your political beliefs? No! Then ia it unreasonable for me to expect you to be guided ia the
selection of District Judge solely by the question ef ability and integrity?
Look for tho Name on tho State Ticket.

RAIN AND SNOW FINK FOR
WHEAT
Moisture In sufficient quantities
has at last come to relieve the anx-
iety of those who wished to sow wheat
and to put the ground in fine shape
to receive the golden grain not yet
sown and to boost along that already
In the ground and In the green. Rain
Friday night turned to snow In the
early hours of Saturday morning and
the "beautiful" continued to fall most
of the time throughout the day Sat-
urday Saturday night apd a part of
Sunday Coming as It did every par-
ticle of moisture went into the ground
and put a fine season in it. Every-
body is feeling much encouraged and
while this is a little early In the sea-
son some are predicting a wheat
crop next year sure. We sincerely
hope that such a crop may be realised
for our fanners and all of us need It.
It the people of this state KNEW that

President Wilson and Entire Oklahoma Delega-
tion in Congress urge voters to Support the
Woman Suffrage Amendment
November 5th
For the first time in history the President or the United States has
addressed a direct appeal to the voters of Oklahoma. On behalf of the
women of Oklahoma he has sent his message to the State Chairmen of the
Democratic and Republican parties. '
"I venture to express to the voters of Oklahoma my very profound In-
terest In the constitutional amendment for woman suffrage upon which
they will act on the fifth of November and I beg that ther will Dcrmlt me
to express to them as I did to the "congress of the United States my deliber-
ate Judgment that the adoption of woman suffrage! la a necessary Dart of
the program of Justice and reconstruction which the war has convinced the
nations of the world that they should undertake1 in the Interest of Justice
ana peace."
Oklahoma will not fail the President. Another message has come
this week from Washington on behalf of the Woman Suffrage Amendment
which the Oklahoma Legislature submits to the voters at the General
Election.
"We. members of the Oklahoma Delegation In Congress endorse the
Woman Suffrage Amendment and express the hope that men of all parties
will SUDDOrt it at the cominc election. The women of Oklahoma havn
heroically borne their full share ot the sacrifice and sorrow demanded In!
tne world war for democracy. Let them have an equal share in self gov-
ernment within our state.

LOOK OCT FOR THK 11TH HOUR1
DOMS
Word has etae to us that seme
eadtdates are circulating 11th hour
depe against their republican oppoa-
eats in the hope ef getting by because
ot the lack of time la which' to refute
such attacks It such Is the case all
voters should swat and swat hard
anyone democrat or republican
who employs such unscrupulous cam-
paign methodH-JThe candidate who Is
not fair enough to make his campaign
In the open but who comes In at the
11th hour with disparaging accusa-
tions against his opponent is not the
sort'otvperson that makes the clean
upright honest 'county official and
should be defeated. Voters should
keep a ' sharp lookout tor the candi-
date whfa seeks to employ 11th hour
submarine campaign tactics and swat
them at tho polls.
JIM COUCH SHOULD. AND WILL
BE RE-ELECTED
The office of sheriff is one or the
most Important or the county offices.
It should be filled by a man of sound
Judgment and discretion. If a man
has made an efficient officer he Is en-
titled to bo re-elected to a second
terra.
Jim Couch our present sheriff has
made good In every particular. He
has without fear or favor performed
the duties of his office In such
capable manner that there is left no
Just room for criticism. Jim Is asking-
the voters to re-elect him solely
upon his merits and bis record as an
officer. An Investigation of the Com-
missioner's proceedings during his
term of office will bear out the asser-
tion that Jim has been one of the
most economic officials Beaver coun-
ty has ever had.
Investigate his record and Qb to
the Polls November Sth and VOTE
FOR JIM COUCH FOR SHERIFF.

This simple act often marks the turning point in a man's
career. It imbues him with confidence and the respect
of his business associates. It takes him out of the "hand-to-mouth"
class and he is pointed out as a man with
"money in the bank." He has a foundation to build on
and establishes a credit which is invaluable.
