gathering every little local item
that happens in the" community—
never missing what other folks are
looking for when the paper is print-
ed, will give you a job as local re-
porter. If you think you can fill

ployment, we would like to have
your photograph. What do you
say?
We are pleased to see so many of
our citizens taking pride in their
homes. The word "home" next to
"mother," is the greatest ever ut-
tered by human tongue. What a
refuge the home is when the dark-
ness gathers ! How glad one is to
get a glimpse of home when time
and space have seperated him from
it even for a brief period ! There
seems to be good natured rivalry
here in an effort to make "our home"
look a little neater and thus be the
more inviting to the occupants than
all others. Such Rivalry is cer-
tainly pardonable.
The Blues served supper last Sat-
urday night to the Reds as a re-
ward for securing the greater num-
ber of scholars to attend the Chris-
tian Sunday school. Ice cream and
cake were served.

night worn out but happy.
Hon J. B. A. Robertson, of Chand-
ler, was in town Monday for a short
time. He called at the Enterprise
office and enrolled his name on our
subscription book.
R. H. Claypool, living three miles
northwest of town, was compelled to
kill a fine dog last Friday, it hav-
ing shown symptoms of hydrophobia.
People should watch their dogs
closely, as there has been several
cases of hydrophobia in the terri-
tory the past two weeks.
John Lewis, living northwest of
Carney, marketed $25.15 worth of

his poultry.
We are waiting to see the news-
paper free from typographical er-
rors. They will creep in and are
overlooked until the edition is print-
ed and then they stand out as bold
as church steeples.
This is Fourth of July week and
we may possibly have missed sev-
eral items, besides we have been
out of town and may possibly have
failed to "catch on" to all passing
events.
Master Milo Farrar has the thanks

Corn loaned to a hog, says an ex-
change, is cash at a good invest-

lard, hair, brushes, glue, buttons,
fertilizer, fats, bacon, knife han
dies, whistles, soaps, sauce, saus-
age, and satisfaction. He con-

A number of Busines Colleges
have been advertising big reduced

course. We can beat it. If your
time is worth anything, we can give

and extensive course to be had at a
less cost than you can get a course
of any kind in any other school,
even if they give you every cent of
your tuition free. Will also secure
you a good position. Write for
facts and figures that will prove our
claims beyond a shadow of a doubt
to the most skeptical. Capital City

Here is a little problem which was
gotton up by a man who must have
a longer head than a Philidelphia
lawyer: Take any number between
one and nine. Add one. Multiply
by nine. Drop the left hand or first
figure of the two comprising the re-
sult. Add the original number.
The answer is always twenty-three
irrespective of the number originally
selected, is not obvious, but the
stubborn fact remains that it is
twenty-three. You can take one,
two, three, four, five, six, seven,
eight, or nine, the answer is always
the same.
Mt. Veinon.
Mrs. Cabe is recovering from a
severe illness On June 28th a
new boy came to the home of Mr.
and Mrs. Jno. Deming,where he was
tenderly welcomed This neigh-
borhood may not have so many
prominent personages as some places
but we have one person who claims
the distinction of being a weather
prophet.He says he has visions which
foretell changes in the weather and
he predicts a frost in this locality
on October 16th, next H. E.
Straughen will leave this week for
Western Oklahoma, where he will
assist G. W. Bruce of Enid, as ex-
pert accountant Rev. C. M.
Hurlbut was the victim of a very
severe accident last Thursday. A
calr which he was watering became
frighted and ran .throwing Mr. Hurl-
but down and entangling him in it s
chain so that he was dragged sev
eral rods. He sustained severe in-
juries about one of his hips, from
which, on account of his age and
the warm weather he may be some
time in recovering.
Those Shoes.
Cobb, Ind. Ty., June 14, '06.
O. A. McCown, Carney, Okla.,
Dear Sir :—I purchased a pair of
shoes for my boy from you which
outwore anything I ever had for him.
I am sending you his worn out shoe
and want you to send me another
pair two sizes larger for him, and a
pair 1 1-2 sizes larger than the
slipper for my little girl. Don't
substitute but send the same shoe as
the old one. I paid you $1.10 for
his shoes so will enclose $2.20 for
the shoes and 20c for postage.
We think we have a fine country
here.
Respectfully,
Mrs. John H. Young.
These were Noyes-Norman Shoes.
We have just received and opened
up about $600 worth of Noyes-Nor-

ferior goods elsewhere. Remem-
ber the only place you can get them
in Carney is at McCown's
