Every person has some way of doing things that is not
like the other fellow and Black is no exception to the rule.
Black has a way of treating his customers that con-
vinces them that he appreciated their trade.
Black has a way of telling his customers just what they
are getting and never trying to sell them something that they
do not want.
Black has a way of getting the best on the maket for
the same price that inferior goods are sold for.
Black does this by buying in quantity.
Black's way is never to misrepresent an article m order
to make a sale.
Black’s way is to hold his customer by treating them
lair and honest.
Blacky way is to make good anything that is not rignt
with out dispute.
Black’s way is to keep his stock fresh and sell it at a reasonable profit.
If you like Black’s way why not become one of his customers.
Black’s customers are satisfied. You will be if you become one.
If Black’s way is your way by the way get your merchandise of Black.

life and southern California has a

place of all other means of life and
a man must have money to aid it.

Synopsis of High School Course For Okeene.
A •'rest many have inquired concerning the High School course, for
the benefit of such, we print a synopMs <d our course here, which per-
mits one to enter the Cniversity of Oklahoma.
DeplooMs Presented To Foor.
For the first time in the history of
Okeene or Blains Connty the Board of
education presented the seuior class
with credentials admitting them to the
university. In spite of the tjireating
weather the chnrch was well filled and
the audience went away well pleaced
with the program. Miss Alice Record
delivered the first oration. Her subject
..Ambition" was well handled and show
ed thought and preparation. In her
oration on "Cultured mind-’ Miss Ethel
Ingram showed a careful study of sub-
ject. She not only haudled it in an in
terestiug manner bat she made au en-
tertaining address. Miss Grace Enmion
"our own Grace” as she was called by
the class prophet, pleased all. Her
skillful and climatic arrangment of her
subject. Abraham Lincoln, made it es-
pecially interesting. Arthur Records as
class prophet made several good hits at
the expeses of girls of the class whom
he denominated tryants and as stumb-
ling blocks to his progress. His prophesy
was followed by an address from Pres.
Conway of the Alva Normal. His words
of advice and good solid sense will long
be remembered by all. The musicians
and qnartett received their share of ap-
plause, their rendition being fine. The
Theehnch was tastefully decorated.

Shall We Celebrate.
Last year Okeena had a grand Fourth
of Jnly celebration that was a success
in every particular and a canvas of cit-
izens shows that the majority of them
are in favor of holding a big celebration
this fourth.This is rijfit let ns celebrate
at home and the money spent will he
pat in circnlation here. Okeene never
half does a thing so it is a cinch that if
we do celebrate it will be done right. A
public meeting will be held Friday night
to consider the matter. Fvorybody invit
ed to attend.
A Fatal Accident.

ing at a very high rate of speed jumped
the track dashing it occupants upon the
track splitting Mr, Balton s head from
ear to ear causing instant death. Mr.
Breedlove received severe injuries which
no doubt will prove fatal. The victims
■were carried to Geary Mr. Breedlove’s
wife at Chickasha was immediaely un-
formed and a special train was ran oou
veying her to the side of her stricken
husband who was sent to the Hospital
at South Me Alister. One pecular thing
is Mr. Breedlove received his appoint-

Oar California Letter.
Los Angeles and it’s environment
present more allurements to the
tourist who has the means and leis-
ure to look about then any other
like area on earth. The numerous
and perfeotly safe bathing beaohes
and the many medioinal hot and
oold apnnga all oouapire to entioe
him to enjoy their invigorating plea
sure fully three hundred and sixty,
five days in the year, for the plaoid
surfs of the Paoifio, at this latituds
tre never too oold for a plunge bath
and very seldom too high for safty.
The springe are in easy reach by
eleotrio oar lines, so that no day
need past without the delights of
one or the other baths. The beaut-
ies of the vaaious fruit distriots, the
elegant homes and endless drives all
make the flight of time fleet of wing
and he wbooan see all that is worth
the time and trivial expense of see-
ing has truly seen a combination of
grandure and beauty that he will
neither regret nor forget. Some of
the little oittea that are in olo se
touch by means of the wonderful
eleotrio railway system with this
oity are the homes of many men
who are rated in seven figures.
These men have not been niggardly
in the making and adorning of the
spots they have seleoted and a drive
though a street where thay have
grouped on either side is one of the
features of any well made town of
this region. The guide and tons of
literature telling of the grand and
beauty spots for a tourest to see
never fail to name these streets as
land marks not to be pasted by.
Notably is this true of Hollywood
with it’s elegant hotels and the
homos of such men as II. J. Whit
ely, formerly of Oklacoma in it’s
early days ami well known to Guth-
rie, Medford and many other towns
that felt the magio touoh of his fin-
ancial genius. He has recently retir-
ed from aotive business with a oom
petence that is well up in high fig-
ures, Paul Le Gompre, the artist,
las a home there that is a gem ot
artistic skill end financial expend-
iture. At Pasadena one street is
named Orange Grove and none but
seven figure residents reside on eith
er side of it. These have made it a
famous spot of beanty and only a
visit to it will give one a dear idea
of what the landscape gardener
with a oaste blanoh commission can
do for an ordinary, level pieoe of
townaite. No one will attempt to
tell yon how fine it is. Then there
s the Raymond hotol, with it’s 600
rooms and it’s fine floral park and
the Green Hotel’ built from the pro
^fita of patent medicine, that the in-
numerable herd of ailing humanity
siexe at as a straw te the drown-
ing man. The structure is built on
both sides of a broad street cover-
ing nearly two entire blooks and
conneoted by a handsome viaduct
that orosses the street high ’over
eleotrio and telephone wires. This
structure is a monument to the ab-
surd yet ever inoreasing habit of
dosing real or imaginary ills with
something of whioh the User knows
nothing and that has but little more
medicinal virtue than that bulk of
stagnant rainwater. This maguifi-
oent pile is only a potion of the pro
tits this man Green has made from
his oure alls a^if has a home in
New Jersey thmc can be easily im-
agined by an experieuoed traveler
after seeing this hotel and tho homo
of lens noted millionaire. All these
grand sights arc interspersed with
the homes of other classes and the
tourist/' If he will converse with
these other olasses soon learns to
look on the oontrast and see lessons
le would not learn but for the ideas
oonveyed without qualification. A
arge fraotion of the laboring class
among these financial captains is
iroodmg over the difference betwen
the lives of their class and that of
the people who have been giving
them employment where none would
have been bad all been of the same
i inanotal oalibre of them and their
fellowa. Socialism is being easily
introduced among these toilers and
their sttnta of labor are being effect-
ed by the drudging dictation of it’s
teneti. A hornet's nest is growiug
right where there ought to be the
utmost good fellowship, between em
ployer snd employe. There is a
reason for it snd tbs employers are
not to blame nor are they aware of
wbat is brewing. The magic of
growth has had it’a praises sung in
every land snd dime and the ever
restless spirit of enterprise has
pushed far too many of those who
are looking for a plaoe to detter
themselves into this woderlsnd of
push snd prosperity until they are
really hustling each other for exist
enoe and they seem not to reason
from cause and effect but blame it
all to the ones whe are about the
anly souroe of the means they have
to exist. Human nature is alike the
world over and he who contemplate
the employments of labor looks to
the market price of labor and th«
price, like all other prioes is ruled
by the supply and demand. When
ten or twenty men are seeking each
solitary job they alone set the price
Yet the rush of laborers is ever add
ing to the seekers after the jobs that
in ratio to the seekers is disastrous-
ly low. One remedy to help this
is to stop tho inflow of labores to a |
place now' ovcrtlowing with strand-
ed w recked maoh allies of all classes
Let it i>e generally known that men
