D. L. Larsh is home from a Ford
trip to Roff and Ada, Okla., going
via. Purcell, Byars and Wanette, and
says that in all his twenty years' ex-
perience he has never .teen the cot
ton looking better or more prom-
ising. Everywhere along the line of
his travels there was a large acreage,
! the plant was thrifty, the stand
magnificent and the fields clean,
j showing thorough cultivation, 'rtie
crop is a little late, but seasonable
weather will soon overcome that de-
ficiency.
Corn, too, is looking promising, al-
though in some localities it has been
somewhat damaged by drouth. Every-

M. E. CHURCH, SOUTH.
"The Philosophy of a Tightwad" is
the title of the lecture at our church
tomorrow evening to which all are
cordially invited. The lecture is ap
propriate to the times and is full of
fact, philosophy and fun. If there
should exist any of the genus Tight-
wadis in our benevolent city—if there
is a single Tightwad—he is cordially
invited to stay away, for there will be
a general removal of cuticle, com-
monly known as hide. You will surely
be talked about just scandalously.
We feel it our bounden duty to warn
you in advance. If you come be pre-
pared for what follows. The lecture
has been delivered several times and
has always elicited some favorable
comments from men and women who
know. Seriously, however, we have
packed a quantity of good gospel

Sanitary Ways
Guard the health of the citizens of
Norman, so far as municipal author-
ity extends. It is easy to neglect such ]
matters, either as individuals or as
a community. Our attention is called
oftentimes to some unsanitary place
that annoys some family. We have no
authority to adjust such matters ex-
cept by the power of the press, which
has no meaning save public exposure,
which is of little avail.
There are several spots in Norman
that can be located by the smell, if
not by sight, and we hereby ask, un-
der authority given by the Norman
Chamber of Commerce, the Board
of Health to use due diligence in hav-
ing all unsanitary spots removed at
once.
Watermelon and green corn days
are 'upon us and some people shove
