Due to the fact that the animal
was a western broncho, it was al-
most impossible to get him to

however, the horse had been quiet-

been for a squirrel that crossed

Last Tuesday morning the stu-
dents of Norman High School were
royally entertained in chapel by
George Abbott. He told us of his
training in Texas, of his embaik-
ation, of the 8-day lay-over in Hal-
ifax and of his final landing in
France and he said, "It did not
create such a favorable impres-
sion." He was in the fight in the
Argonne forest and at Chateau
Thierry. He was very entertain-
ing anil told us about the gas
masks used in France and demon-
strated them, but we were disap-
pointed because he did not tell us
how he got the medal. George is
a former N. H. S. student and ev-
eryone was glad to see him back
especially the seniors, because
they were in school with him.
Some of the high school • stu-
dents were to address the audi-
ences at the theatres Friday and
Saturday nights, but owing to a
misunderstanding there was only
one speech made. We suppose
they will talk this week on the
Clean-Up Day.

book, for even alone they make it
worth while. David Hedley is in-

quite as good as the 1919 book.

About Milk Goats
F. O. Miller lias gone to Gaines-
ville, Texas, called by news of a
serious accident to his father, W.
F. Miller, which resulted in a bro-
ken leg. No particulars were giv-
en, but owing to the fact that his
father is in his 78th year, Frank
is quite anxious about him.
The Junior class of • Norman
high school cast all precedents
away and instead of the regulax
formal reception have invited the
Senior class to an old fashioned
hay ride and picnic all day today
(Wednesday) to be followed by a
party tonight. Oh! Boy! Don't
you wish you were a Senior. On
Thursday evening of this week
Mr and Mrs. Shultz will entertain
the members of the graduating
class at their home on West Co-
manche.
A good audience is assured at
"Claim Allowed" given by the —•*
ior class Friday, May 23. Quite a
few boys, among them Jack An-
derson, wish to make public that
they have "dates" for the play.
Editor Transcript:
Since the little mention in ihe
Transcript recently about my
goats, I have had numerous in-
quiries about them, and to all
would say they are a very useful
little animal for the family in
town and city where it is not con-
venient to keep a cow.
When I first talked of selling
my eow and buying a milk goat and
paying more for my goat than I
eoula~ get for my cow, some of my
old friends began to turn aside
and smile, and ask my wife it' my

LAY IN YOUR
Winter Coal Now
You can fruit for the winter. __You lay in supplies
of vegetables. ^Vhy not lay in coal the same way.
Relieve yourself of heavy coal bills which always
come at a time when the high cost of living demand
your money for something else.
Coal Prices Are the Lowest Now.
Less coal is used in the Spring and Summer. The
supply is greater than the demand. Then is the
time to buy—that time is now.
Coal prices advance the first of each month until
August 1st. Better give us your order, before the
next advance.
