TAFT
HAVING
HIGH OLD
TIME
Gregory Texas Oct. 20. President
Taft began bis three days of doing as
he pleased on his brother's ranch by
playing eighteen holes of golf yester-
day morning over a muddy course and
by "just loafing" through the long aft-
ernoon and evening. Mr. Taft -was as
hfcppy as a boy out of school. The Idea
of eating a dinner without having to
speak for it and of going the live-long
day without having to make a speech
appealed to him strongly and he de-
clared he wished his far southern vaca-
tion could last a week and three days
instead of just the latter period.
While the President was golfing and
resting the members of his party en-
joyed themselves in various ways.
Beginning today the President will
probably go in bathing In the bay each
remaining morning of bis stay as both
weather and water are warm.
Ranch hands out hunting yesterday
killed two wild boars and a raccoon.
AH were presented to the President
last night.
The President banished his assistant
secretaries from LaQuinto loday and
gave no thought to public business In
any way. He roamed about the grounds
adjoining the house walked out on the
long pier leading into the bay to watch
those who were in- swimming and de-
clared he was having the time of his
life.

TOE
M. B. A.
WINS SUIT
Attorney Stacey today received no-
tice from the clerk of the district court
at Guthrie to the effect that Judge
Huston had granted a writ of manda-
mus requiring the state insurance com-
missioner o license the Modern Broth-
erhood of Ameriqa to do business In
Oklahoma. ': s
Mr. Stacey was one of the attorneys
for the order. Com'&lssioner McComb
refused to license the order because he
claimed that It had not complied with
the Insurance laws of the state. Attor-
neys for the M. B. A. showed that it
was properly organized and doing bus-
iness In Indian Territory before state-
hood and was therefore entitled to a
license. The order has a large mem-
bership in the state.-
"THE WOLF"
TONIGHT
Eugene Walter's great play "The
Wolf" -which followed closely in its
original production in New York up-
on the heels of his first success "Paid
in Full" and which has proven as sen-
sational and remarkable a play will
be the attraction at the Folly tonight.
It tells a tale of love and fierce hatred
in the Canadian woods and In the tens-
ity of its action and its gripping power
It is said to be even more powerful
than "Paid in Full."
The spirit of "The Wolf" is that of
romance and its atmosphere is that
of the great spaces of the North. The
story is delightfully told and there are
passages in It that have the "lift"
of powerful imaginative work.
This will probably be the best play
that Chickasha people will have the
opportunity of seeing this season. The
company played to large houses at the
Overholzer In Oklahoma City last
week.
For the benefit of the clerks and
merchants who -work late the curtain
will be held till 8:45. 9

tion. Rasmussen however the captain

their fines.
Mayor Edwards Judge Grigs-by and
the police were puzzled about what to

plexing If these were the only boys
with whom we have to deal" said
Mayor Edwards. "Every day and night
there are boys on the streets when
they should be in school. They are
being trained in the school of Idle-

him anything about his boy. He was a
