—Prof. S. M. Barrett Lands: Gov:

making him secretary of the state

Claremore school was suspended j
when Governor Williams disapproved

and is now subject to call. The head-
quarters of this branch of the service I
for this district are at Fort Sam
Houston, San Antonio, Texas, to which

Through the Giles-Weir Investment

It was owned by C. H. Bessert,

Mr. Bond is a relative of E. B. John-
son, and a very wealthy man of
Grady county; farmer, stock raiser
and farmer. He will build a fine house
on the tract and otherwise improve
it. Norman welcomes such oeopl
the University City, for in e-ery way
they are desirable citizens.
"God Is With Us'
Emperor William has again issued
an address to the German people, in
which he says they may rest assured
I that German blood and German zeal
i are not being gambled with for an
empty shadow of ambition or for
schemes of conquest, but in defense
of a strong, free empire in which their
! children might live in security,
j "We must continue the fight and
j continue to furnish arms, "says the
j Kaiser.
"The enemy is stretching out his
' hands toward German territory, but
I he will never have it. New nations
(continue to enter the war against us,
but this does not frighten us. We
know our strength and are determined
to use it.
"We stand erect at the year's close
immovable, victorious, intrepid.
Hard trials await us, but we shall
meet them with full faith."
At the same time the Kaiser is-
sued a special separate proclamation
to the German army and navy con-
cluding "The Lord God is with us."
"In the mighty battles of the west
you of the army remain masters of
the situation; our navy threatens the
enemy's very existence," he declared.
