The movement for revision of the
city charter and the adoption of a
city manager plan will be quickened
with simultaneous action by all
clubs of the city, to be called to meet
the first week of January.
Thus far. all civic club sentimen'
dent, and C. N. Peak, cit.y superin
tendent. secretary and president, re
spectively. cif the Central asriocia
tlon, are the most sought after'peopl
in the city today.
SESSIONS TONIGHT
The Central Oklahoma
association will begin its sessions at
tl>e First Methodist church this ev-
nin'3 at 8 o'clock. The rincipul
feaibure of the evening will be an
address upon the subject of • Adoles-
cence" by Prof. V. \v. Phelan of Ok-
lahoma University. Prof. Phelan has
made a life study of that subject ami
is i>ossibly the best speaker in the
state on that mil jet"'. The exercises
wfill be preceded by music by the
Temple male quartet of this city
The Central association comes to
Guthrie upon the in vi-at ion of the
friends of the association and upon
the vote of the executive committee.
Teachers who are members of the
association pay a mebershtp fee of
two dollars each year wh'ch ent.Mo.s
each teacher to attend the county as-
sociation. the district association and
the strate association, and also is a
member of the club of the "Oklahoma
Teacher,' which is published in Ok-
lahoma City.
The Central association gets one-
fotirth of these two dollar fees from
all the teachers that enrol! in the
thirteen counties of the Central as-
sociation.
There are some teachers th « do not favors charter revision,
enroll willingly and 'o prevent such
per don 8 from attending the associa-
tion meet in ers the directors of the
state association have ruled that all
persons admitted to the sessions here
must have a card showing that the
two dollar fee has been paid. For
that reason the sessions are not all
open to the general public. It has
been decided however, to open the
meetings on Friday evening and Sat-
urday morning to the general public.
In fact, it is the desire of the of-
ficials of the association to have as
many of the citizens as possible to
attend the meetings on Friday eve-
ning and Saturday morniiv- At that
time all the teachers will have en-
rolled and that is the only purpose
rn having closed doors at any time.
From the funds collected the as-
sociation pays its expenses. It *fili
cost the association about one thous-
and dollars to hold the sessions here.
One speaker is given one hundred
dollars for his lecture

upon the payment of the fee of itiwo
dollars. However, no one need feel
that he must do so to help the as-
sociation out of trouble, for* there is
enough money now paid in for all the
expenses of the present meeting. I,:
is in a _ood financial condition. Vet
if persons who are not teachers de-
ing now to go over to the hospital I
have just talked with the hospial

Following luer visit to the hospital.
Mrs. Hamon and little dauuhter. (>1:\-
| Belle, will go to the home of Mr. ami
Mrs Brret Dunlap.- where the> will
have Thanksgiving dinner.
"I think Mr Hamon is a wonderful
man and I have perfect confidence
in him," Mrs Hamon continued. I
regret exceedingly the newspaper
stories that the accident was any-
thing more than Mr. Hamon sta • d.
I believe him absolutely, when m>
husband tells me it was an accident
I know it was. Please say in the
papers that I believe him without
question. 1 can easily understand
how an automatic pistol can be dis
changed and how tho accident oc-
curred."
When asked how long she would
remain in Ardmore, Mrs. Hamon
stated that she really did not know.
"It all depends upon Mr. Humou's
condition and hov rapidly lv im-
proves. 1 shall remain until all
ger is passed, but I can't say
how long that will be."

the sign'ficance of the recent occu-
rences in Italy (syndicalist seizures
'of factories, etc.) had not been fullv
understood in America.
"In some instances the readjust
ment of the economic conditions it
times assumed what appeared on t ie
surface to b; i drastic aspect. ti*
the disposition of the great mass o'
Italian people was to return as rapid
ly as possible tc an orderly systema-

"Italy is sanely and ably led by the

ab'e settlement being reached oe

dustries. and the financ'al pro-ram
promises to materially relieve the fi-

is an assurance for the future."
Mr. Bedford added that it was dif-

He concluded by saying: "When
