The Colorado Turley-Bessent-
IlrooLs party rolled into .\'onnan on
Saturday night in the Brooks "Hud-
son" automobile, mighty glad to get
home. They had all sorts of machine
trouble on the trip, for tfie machine
was an old one and about all in when
they started, but they finally man-
aged to get through. Turley drove
for the most of the time, and Mr.
Bessent says they sure did hit the
high places.
On their way home the rain that
reached here last Friday, started to
chase them at Pueblo, Colorado, but
Turley stepped on the gas and kept
ahead of it all the way to Perry,
Okla. Some of their friends are in-
clined to believe they did their best
to entice the rain to follow them to
where it was so sorely needed, and
declare they were so late in getting
results this year that they must take
the trip earlier in 1820 if we need
rain as badly as we did this year.
Misses Callie and Hattie Graham,
who have been spending several
weeks with their sister, Mrs. E. B.
Johnson, here, and with their sister,
Mrs. H. T. Miller in Oklahoma City,
left on Tuesday for their home in
Orlando, Ariz.
PROOFITEERiNG
The story in Sunday's Trans-
cript concerning complaints made to
the State Board of Affairs that "prof-
iteering" was being indulged in by
some citizens of Norman in the mat-
ter of charging students "exhorbi-
tant" prices for rooms and board, at-
tracted considerable attention, and
the unanimous opinion was that the
charges, except in a few isolated cas-
es, were unfounded. It is true that
rates are somewhat higher than in
former years, but the fact that
rents are much higher and everything
the boarding house people have to
buy are "out of sight", accounts for
the higher prices. One party put it
this way:
We have a four room house in the
University part of town. It is no
more than we need for our own use,
but, owing to the congestion, we con-
sented to rent one of the rooms, and
are asking $16 per month for it for
one or $18 for two. We figure this
is about one-fourth the expense we
are at for the whole house, and cer-
tainly no one can say we are 'profi-
teering'. Our monthly payment on
the house is $38, taxes $12, lights
$4.00, water $3.00, coal $8, or a total
f : 65—and this does not take into
account the dozen and one incident-
als that we are out owing to the
roomers, incidentals that we would
not have if it were not for them. The
house is steam-heated, and has all
the modern conveniences, and we
cannot cee how it is possible for us
to take less and make bothe ends
meet."
It is also pointed out that students
who come to the University demand
something better in the way of rooms
and board than those who go to
the Normal and other schools of the
state; are of a different class. They
demand the best of board, and kick
like bay steers if they don't get it.
They demand steam heated rooms,
and are peeved if put into rooms that
do not have that convenience. In
fact, they demand all the modern
conveniences, such as the great ma-
jority of them have at home, and
therefore cannot expect to have them
unless they pay for them.
An unprejudiced investigation will,
the Transcript is certain prove prices
are not "exhorbitant" for the ser-
vice rendered.
L. C. Giles of the Giles-Weir In-
vestment company returned on Sun-
Mr. and Mrs. W. R. McFerron will
leave on Saturday for Siloam Springs,
Ark., to take possession of the farm
for which they traded their proper-
ty at 416 University Boulevard. The
house will be occupied by Mrs. Allie
Isom of Lexington, who will keep
roomers. George McFerron will fin-
ish his course at the University be-
fore joining his parents in Arkansas.
Jas. Lawrence, county agent at
Miami, was here on Monday visit-
ing friends. He likes his job
up there, which he says is a great
county with marked argicultural
and horticultural possibilities.
The Oklahoman of Monday states
that Lieut. Richard B. Miller, son
of Mr. and Mrs. II. T. Miller of that
city was expected home from Camp
Grant, 111., on that day. Dick is a
nephew of Mr. and Mrs. E. B. John-
son of this city and received his
commission at Camp Pike more than
two years ago and was overseas more
than a year. For a time he was at-
tached to the headquarters of the
Army of Occupation at Coblenz,
Germany. lie was formerly a Nor-
man boy, and is another one who has
made good.
Undoubtedly you, have noticcd
that there is much less confusion and
loud noises on the streets since City
Marshal Sanderson issued his ukase
against "cut-outs." They were cer-
tainly getting obnoxious and a nui-
sance, day and night, and it was
time something should be done to
obliterate them.
Geo. Monical Here: Geo. Monical,
who has been with the Holmboe
Construction Company at Eastland,
Texas, since July, returned to Nor-
man on Monday to spend a few days
with friends, who were all glad to
see him and glad to learn of his
prosperity. He is now drawing
down his dollar an hour at East-
land, and last week his pay check
amounted to $54. He figures that
after Sept. 1st he will be getting $10
per day, the carpenters on the East-
land job having asked for that
amount for an eigh'-hour day, with
every prospect of getting it. He
says he pays $9.00 for a twenty-one
meal ticket and a good price for a
room, but he feels he can afford it.
Geo. Wilkerson, rural carrier on
route 8 is now taking his vacation of
two weeks. J. B. Beard is acting as
his substitute.
Mrs. S. H. Peters is in receipt of a
letter from her son Ken telling her
to expect him and his wife some time
this week. They will be warmly wel-
comed by Ren's numerous Norman
friends. Mrs. Peters will come direct
to Norman, Hut Ren will have to
stop at Camp Pike to get his dis-
charge. He has been first sergeant
in the bakery department of the army
during the war, stationed at a camp
in New Jersey, where he met the
young lady who is now his wife.
Vincent to Build Two Houses:
Thos, Vincent purchased the four
lots on the corner of Duffy street and
Jenkins avenue, just east of the Beta
house, on Saturday, and will build
two good houses of the bungalow
style upon them. He paid $1,450 for
the lots, which was certainly reason-
able.
Stroke of Paralysis: Our old triend
Comrade D. D. Wright, was stricken
with paralysis on Friday of last
week, suffering a very severe stroke,
one that affected almost his entire
body. There is very little hope that
he can recover, as he is 84 years of
age and in quite feeble health beside
the paralysis. Many friends of Mr.
and Mrs. Wright will greatly sympa- II
thize with them in the affliction. Mr. |
Wright is one of the oldest citizens
of Cleveland county, an old soldier
and member of the G. A. R. He and
Mrs. Wright lived for a number of
years east of Noble, but moved to
Norman some years ago, and are resi-
dents of the 700-block on East Eu-
faula.
Mr. W. II. Gater, who has been ap-
pointed the new City Manager of
Norman, was here from Langston
over Sunday visiting his family, who
reside on North Peters Avenue. He
has given his company, the Rooney
Construction con-pany, notice that
he will not be with them after Sept.
9th, when he will come to Norman
prepared to take tip his duties as
manager 011 the 10th. The announce-
ment of his selection has been re-
ceived with approval by all who know
him and know of his excellent abil-
ity.
Mr. McMakin Seriously 111: Mr. G.
\V. McMakin suffered another slight
stroke of paralysis on Friday last and
his condition at the present time is
quite critical. His son, Leo, has been
called from Davis and daughter
Mora from Marlow, and hope of his
recovery has almost been abandoned.
Some weeks ago he suffered a
stroke, and lias not yet recovered
from its effects when this second
stroke came. He is in his 73rd year
and has been in delicate health for
some months.
