THE SCORCHER.
By many a gasping man a scud
I whiz around the corner
And cover one's clothes with mud.
Thus leaving him forlorner.
I cut the muffler out and leap
Along come darkened highway
And laugh at language hoarse and
deep
From folks who hunt the byway.
T cl nib a hllT and then I scot
Adon and through the hollow;
My Iv r.i sends back a raucous toot
To those who fain would follow
The smoke swirls in the atmosphere
And makes It mean and muggy.
I take a half an inch to clear
A plodding horse and buggy.
With honk and hoot and howl I go
Through pleasant country places
And in a whitened maze they show
The anxious watching faces.
The children scurry from the road
Called by their frightened mothers
Who cluck them into their abode
The Bister and the brothers.
The dust and grit get In my eyes
My face is hot and burning
Yet still I whiz by dip and rise
By long straight way and turning;
My ready hand upon the wheel
The speed will slyly quicken
When glimpses of the road reveal
A pig or dog or chicken.

Through many a little town I blare
While constables would halt me
And timid people everywhere
Are willing to assault me
Yet I am scorching on you know

Into Mr. and Mrs. Bean's room and

At Mr. Webb's.
The open session of the Orio club
on Friday afternoon at the residence
of the president Mrs. G. H. Webb
was largely attended and will long
be remembered by those who were
fortunate enough to be present as one
ant" by Mrs. Splndler and Miss
Daisy Maude Webb was a lovely ren-
dition of that popular and difficult
composition.
Miss Annie Turman sang a very
dainty charming song "Carissima" In
which her voice was the subject of
much compliment among the guests.
Mrs. Eb Evans read a selection
from the "Hebrew Melodies" as an
Introduction to the study of Byron as
a poet of nature.
Kubenstein's beautiful "Melody in
F" was played with an especial charm
of Interpretation by Miss Stella Car-
ter. Mrs. Walter Madden real a short
sketch from Ruth McEnery Stuart's
Inimitable book "Sonny" In which the
dry wit of Sonny's father and the
childish tyranny of Sonny were de
lightfully portrayed.
Miss Daisy Maude Webb followed
Mrs. Madden with a vocal selection
"Sing On" by Denza. Miss Webb
hap a voice as clear and Bweet as a
bird and is always true to her notes.
The selection was a difficult one de
manding of the voice both volume
and a wide range of tones and in
neither was she lacking. Her friends
have great faith in her voice and are
glad she will have opportunity of de-
veloping It under noted teachers In
the east.
Mrs. G. H. Webb read a splendid
paper on Communion of Nature in
which the companionship of nature
and genius were well brought out.
The topics was also applied to Byron
and her closing remarks were beau
tifully expressed In a diction that
bordered on poesy Itself.
Miss Boone In her own charming1
manner sang a vocal selection "Caro'
with Miss Daisy Maude Webb as ac
companist.
The quiz was led by Mrs. Webb
and was on "Mazeppa."
The members responded readily and
were well prepared and evidenced the
Interest that has characterized this
club in their lesson study.
The four cousins sang a beautiful
quintette "All Through the Night"
Misses Daisy Maude Webb Annie
Turman Stella and Italy Carter.
A great disappointment was the in
ability of Miss Garbutt to take part
on the program. Miss Garbutt's read
ings are always a treat to the Ard-
more people who have long since
recognized her talent. Miss Garbutt
was 111 on yesterday and begged to
be excused from her reading but not
before she had given a really splen-
did extract from "Mazeppa" In the
lesson quiz.
It would be hard to conceive a
more charming musical number than
Miss Mamie Gross' selection "March
Grotesque" by Slnding.
The music was just what the name
Implies and under Miss Gross' skill-
ful fingers was a beautiful bit of
melody.
Misses Webb and Turman's duet
"Shubert's Serenade" gained addition
al Interest from the few explanatory
remarks with which Miss Boone pre-
faced he selection.
Miss Boone gave a reading from
"The Sign of the Cross" which was
a fitting close for a program that
had been preeminent for Its excel-
lence. Spelling Match.
The Ladies of the Leaf will have a
spelling match on tomorrow after-
noon with Mrs. Harold Wallace. They
will choose sides and spell until the
Inst one sits down. Members and
guests need not bring their supper
for it is hardly possible that any of
them will last until the 6 o'clock
whistle blows. The blue back spell-
ers were ordered by Frame & Criner
two months ago for the club. They
were soon sold out to the club mem-
bers. 'But none of them have had
time to study not one of them. It
Is an actual fact discovered by can-
vassing that out of fifteen club mem-
bers all with books not a one has
confessed to having opened the book
for other purposes than seeing if the
pages have teen numbered correct-
ly. Each member may invite one guest
If she's got enough nerve. Of course
these ladies are all good spellers but
the people In the blue-back speller
days had such strange vocabularies.
You run up on words in that speller
that haven't any legitimate descend
ants these days. You come face to
face with words you can't find In
the school edition of the dictionary
you find words that are spelled
then. You tub up on words you nev-
er did know how to six-11 and can't
even pronounce with the look be-
fore you. But the Ladies of Uve Leaf
have decided to spell with Mrs. Wal-
lace on Monday and maybe come of
them will. At any rate they have
all got to try.

County Superintendent Fred Tucker
has made his quarterly report to the
state superintendent of public In-
struction and the report was gratify-
ing to himself and the state superin-
tendent as well.
The suit that was filed ngainst the
treasurer and his bondsmen of dis-
trict No. 21) (Mt. Washington school)
north of the city park for $300 will
not be tried until the May term of
court. The county superintendent
when asked aliout this case said:
"It is simply a test case to de-
termine whether under the present
law district school officers have any
legal right to receive a salary for
their services as a board. I have tak-
en the iKisition that they cannot and
have filed a suit against the treasur
er and his bondsmen to make a final
report of the caw.. If. however this
case should be decided In favor of the
defendants I will have nothing more
to say other than to take the matter
up to the supreme court. The case
involves the expenditure of several
thousand dollars of the people's mon
ey liecause if one board has a right
to receive compensation for their
services every board In the county
has the same right."
When asked about the case against
district No. 50 (Tatum) he said:
'This Is a case in which bonds were
floated in 1909 for $2400 bearing 6
per cent interest. When I as county
superintendent assumed office be
gan an investigation of the situation
prompted by the fact that the bonds
had been floated and yet there was
no school house built the result of
my Investigation revealed tho fact
that there was approximately $1000
shortage. I Immediately filed a suit
n tho district court against T. II.
Williams school treasurer and hi?
bondsmen for the recovery of the
money. The result of the filing of
this suit was that we have recovered
the-money and It is now on deposit
in the bank.
"When the district Judge heard the
case he ordered Williams to pay all
costs in the case."
The old school board at Reck was
sued by the new school board to re-
quire them to make a report. The
old board built a new school house
but never made a report and for this
reason the new board filed the suit.
The court held that the retiring
board was to pay the deficiency of
$6 and all the cost of the case.
