The United Panhandle Oil Corpora-

contracts for a new well to be spud-
ded in by August 1st at a point 12
miles south and 1 1-4 miles east of
Guymon. This contract specifies that
this well is to be drilled to a depth of
3000 feet according to J. R. Nichols,
the Guymon Real Estate man, and he
says they will continue drilling until
they reach oil or know their hopes are
vain.—Goodwell Independent.

Cheap Houses
ARE EXPENSIVE
You can practice false economy and build an
expensive house, or true economy and build an econ-
omical home.
A house built of the best materials with good
labor results in a home that reflects true economy.
A house built of "cheap" materials with "cheap"
labor costs less in the beginning, but, in the long
run, will prove to be a mighty expensive house.
A"bargain" in carelessly manufactured and un-
seasoned lumber means an unsatisfactory
wilding from the beginning and expensive repairs
soon or late.

To The Republican Voters of The 8th
Congressional District.
There never was a time in the his-
tory of the country when men of abil-
ity were needed more in the Halls of
Congress. During a campaign it is
very easy for the various candidates
to favor every thing that they know
would be for the beat interests of the
people of their district. Because they
know that such promises and such
nice sounding phrases as "I favor
this" and "I favor that" are designed
to secure votes.
In these days it is not enough for a
candidate to be in favor of the things
that if enacted into law would be ben-
eficial to his district. It is absolute-
ly essential that a man be selected
who not only favors these (things, but
who has the ability to step into the
halls of Congress and secure the en-
actment into law of the things his
constituency wants.
A great number of Candidates
throughout the agricultural section
are mow claiming that they are in fa-
for of the Farm Bloc, Nevertheless it
took a man of Senator Capper's ability
to make the Farm Bloc a power for
good. There have been Congressmen
who have been favoring these things
for years and.yet fail when the test
of ability came to secure their enact-
ment into law.
It has been said that ten men prac-
tically direct the legislation 0f this
country while there are 435 members
of he House of Represntatives.
It is to be easily recognized that the
districts that send the ten to'Con-
gress are greatly favored over the
districts that send the other 425.
The needs of this great agricultur-
al country are so many that it is abso-
lutely essential that they elect a man
Who can go to Congress and secure
favorable legislation despite the at-
tacks .and the opposition of the pow-
erful interests that are sure to be
there. This country is so large and
its industries are so varied that what
the cattle raiser and wheat farmer
needs would probably be a detriment
to a great many people living in oth-
er sections of the United States.
Therefore when farm legislation is
up for consideration, the manufactur-
ing interests, and the mining interest
etc., will be there to fight it and no-
thing short of great ability and fear-
lessness in fighting for these laws will
do any good.
Again we say it is not enough to
select a candidate who favors all those
good things, it is absolutely essential
to select one .with ability to win over
opposition that he is sure to encounter
on the floors of Congress. The peo-
ple of this district at this time can be
one of the ten and not just one of the
435.
In presenting the candidacy of
Judge Garber for your consideration
the people of Garfield County, who
know him best believe they are offer-
ing you the services of a man who not
only knows what this district needs
but also has the ability to put its
needs into laws. We invite the clos-
est investigation of Julge Garber's
record and ability.
GARBER FOR CONGRESS CLUB.
JOHN G. PARKER, JR. Pres.
R. M. ROGERS, Sec.
GARBER IS THE MAN
It is generally conceded by those
who are in touch with political condi-
tions in the various parts of Grant
County that Judge M. C. Garber will
be the Republican nominee for con-
gress after August 1st. Jo a pretty
thorough survey of the different lo-
calities we hear that Garber i the
man whom the Republicans believe
can look after the districts interest in
the most efficient and satisfactory
manner, and although there is no
doubt but that the republicans can
elect any man they nominate yet there
is no disposition on the part of the
rank and file of the party to allow
another mistake like that of 1920 to
occur.
It was conceded from the first that
Garber would be a st^oiiR candidate,
but few believed that his popularity
would increase so steadily and strong
as it has in the last six weeks. Chas.
Swindall, his strongest opponent, has

many friends in the district and from
the first the opinion was freely ex-
pressed that he would be a hard man
j to beat but as conditions are shaping
| up it appears that Swindall has no
chance. Followers of Judge England
especially in Kay county, are rather
bitter over the tactics used in forcing
England out of the race and most of
them are lining up with Garber. This
condition is also true of the many
friends of Judge England in Grant
County.
But most of the republicans and
especially the farmers are going to
be with Garber because they believe
in him and have always believed in
him. He has proved himself on in-
numerable occasions to be honest, ca-
pable in thorough sympathy with their
needs and they know that he is made
of the stuff that has made Oklahoma
great, for he has fought her battles
ever since the opening of the strip.
With him the office will jjot be one to
use for furthering of his own fortune
or political ambitions, but an instru-
ment for rendering service to his con-
stituents and the people of the Eighth
District know this and are going to
stay with him.—Medford Patriot.

For Sherman County
The two high schools of our County are being
raised to affiliation with the university at Austin.
Our County's country schools can arrange their
course of study and be so supervised that scholars
who move from one district to another district or to
town, can take up their class-work at nearly the
same place they left off. Let's build up our country
schools now.
