Few Norman people realize that
there are many others in this same
town who labor th.ough all the
hours Nvhen they are comfortably
sleeping.
According to careful investiga-
tios there are about twenty seven
people in Norman that are on duty
throughout the night.
Thirteen at Hospital.
I he hospital for the insane em-
ployes thirteen persons on its night
>hift. This includes nurses that are
>n duty in the wards, and the 'fire-
man at the power house.
Each of the two cafes that stay
open ;.il night work three men,
including the cooks. There is en-
uigli transient trade during the night
to warrant these men working.
One Night Law.
One policeman is on duty until the
lay force goes on in the early morn
His is a lonesome job through
fi« early part of the morning when
there is little stirring.
One man works through the en-
lire night at the water works pump
station.
Both the University Hospital
and the Sunnyside hospital must keep
a nurse on duty all night and when
there are a number of patients this
number must be increased.
"Campus L°nesome Place.
I lie most lonesome job, perhaps,!
on the entire list is that of the night
watchman at the University. Front
about ten o'clock at night inn • i after
daylight he patrols the University
grounds. No person is allowed on
the university Campus from the thir-
ty p. m., to seven p. in.
One man is on duty at the Santc
Fe ticket office for the night trains.
This is the minimum number of
people that work through the entire
night, although there a number of
others who work until midnight.

How Aro Ycu" !:d?
Prompt, Slow or Risky?
A good credit rating is one of the greatest
assets a firm or an individual can have.
As most people know, every person who
buys from a merchant has a credit rating with
the merchants' association. Directly after the
close of the pay-up campaign a new credit list
of Norman will be made.
How will your rating stand?
A person who has a reputation of prompt pay, or a reputa-
tion of paying his bills when he promises to pay them will have
a good rating.
Slow pay or risky credit is a poor class. It is a detriment
to you and to the merchant you buy from.
A person with $1000 and no credit can buy only a thousand
^dollars worth of goods, while one with $1000 and good credit
can get twice as much or more.
Not always does a man need a large amount of credit. But
times come in the life of every man when credit is absolutely
necessary.
MARCH 1 to IS
this year has been set aside by the merchants and business men
of Norman for the express purpose of helping you to maintain
good rating.
Take advantage of this offer. Pay your bills, or go to your
creditor and make proper arrangements with him so that he
will know how to classify you when he is asked for a rating on
his customers.

1 lie one most important consid-
eration in buying Lumber is the
Oualit\
The labor involved in Building
is often greater when poor Lum-
ber is used, and the life of the
building is shortened materially.
Compare the prices on our dependable
Quality Lumber with what you will have
to pay elsewhere for an inferior grade—and
then build for permanency.
I.umber prices will probably advance, so it
is to your advantage to make your pur-
chases now, even though you may not build
until later.
Hut now, too, is the time to build. Labor
conditions will not be better soon, and Nor-
man is now short many homes.
Come to our office and we will be glad to
issist you
