NEW CURFEW LAW
ill I IN SAPULPA
A new curfew law lias been passed
j in Sapulpa making it unlawful for
cirls and boys of 16 or under to be
on the streets after 10 o'clock at
night.
The law will be put into effect at
once.
This is something which merits the
attention of the Drumright city au-
thorities. Such a law hero vould
provide a means of keeping young-
sters off the streets at a late hour
and assure their being home in rea-
sonable sesK-on.

Cities Raise Rents
Tlie following is going the rounds:
Chicago Owners May Raise Rent.
CHICAGO, Jan., 22.—The Chicago real estate
board today adapted resolutions recommending that
property owners raise the rent of flats and bungalows
10 percent beginning May 1. Increased taxes and
the cost of maintaining buildings make higher rents
necessary, the members of the board declare.
Many real estate men expressed the opinion that
there would be no building boom in Chicago before
1920 because of the high cost of labor and materials.
Why Pay Rent!
You can see that other cities are raising the rents.
Why do you want to pay rent when you can buy a home
with a small payment clown and balance like rent.
This should teach you to own your home and not
make the landlord rich, and now is the time to buy a
home and stop paying rent. We have a good many
houses that we can sell on easy payment plan.
Come in let us talk it over and we will help you
get a home.
IDLE HOUR TONIGHT
Here is a letter received by Mr:
F. H. Hartman from her brother, Pvt.
Eathan C. Bartley, who is with the
headquarters detachement of the
Sixty-first field artillery in France
Dec. 27, 1918.
Dear Sisters:
1 again take the time to drop a few
lines saying that 1 am as well as can
be epected and as happy as a lark as
we are getting: ready to come home
I think by the 15th of January w<
will be on our way home and then life
will be as it is supposed to be for
when you speak to some one they can
tell what you say and you can also
answer them and you can go in to a
store and buy something without get-
i book to find out what to call
what you want.
1 sure have been busy for the last
week as I am riding a motor now.
We sure had a good dinner Christ-
mas—chicken and noodles and all
that should go with a good Christmas
dinner but cranberries and 1 don't
think that these French people ever
heard of them.
There sure is plenty of holly and
laurel here, the French use it for
hedge fences. They dodn't have any
wire or board fences; all hedge or
briars and all the fields have a bank
around them^they look like a pond.
It has rained here for the last six
weeks and it don't look like it was
ever going to stop. I sure do wish
that it would as mud sure does get on
my nerves but as it is here and 1 am
here I can or have to stand it.
1 received my Christmas box yes-
terday; sure was glad to get it and
the sweater was just, the size and I
like the knife fine; all the boys say
for me not to lay them down or I
wont have them as they all want
them.
I will close for this time. With
love to all.

BILL ARTIST THRIVES
WORKING SAPULPA
If you have any bad money you
ant to get rid of go to Sapulpa.
The boys seem to be able to pass
ilmost anything over there.
The latent is a fake twenty-dollar
bill.
Some Some smooth gentleman
Some (smooth gentleman merely
took a two dollar bill and put an "O"
after the "2" and passed it for $20.
The Sapulpa Herald says this is
"something new in ;he line of clev-
erly countefreited bills." It also
says it presented a good appearanc
"except to a close observer."
Moral—It pays to be a close ob-
server when taking money.

ALEX HURST DIES;
RESULT OF FIGHT J
I
Bristow, Okla., Jan. 27.—Last Sat- I
urday afternoon jis the result ot a af
quarrel, T. C. Martin struck Alex a
Hurst a blow with his fist, while both g
were standing in front of the First jg
State bank. Reeling from the im S
pact of the blow Hurst fell, his head •
striking the cement sidewalk. He was £
picked up and taken to l)r. Snod- j g
grass' sanitarium and Sunday after-
noon he died of concussion of the
brain, resulting from the contact of
his head with the pavement, a blood
clot having formed, accordin ■ to
physicians
Saturday afternoon after the al-
tercation, young Martin voluntarily
pleaded guilty to fighting before <
Mayor Schrader and was fined $10, j
which he paid. Monday, following j
Hurst's death, he was taken to Sa- j
pulpa, where, on recommendation of i
the county attorney, he was admitted
to bail in the sum oi $5,000 on the
charge of manslaughter. He quickly
made this bond and was released.
The origin of the trouble between j
the men goes back to the Liberty loan
drive in the summer. Young Martin
was on the soliciting committee in his ,
district. Hurst refused to purchase
bonds and made derogatory remarks ,
regarding the drive and the govern- I
ment. This act, Mai tin as his duty, !
reported to the chairman. Later Hurst
meeting Martin in the road, attacked j j
him (Martin) with a sweep. This ]
action and his refusal of the loan, j
were reported to the council of de- '
fense at Bristow.
Hurst was given a lecture on loy-
alty and fined by the council. Young ,
Martin at the trial by the council ol j
defense, stated he had no personal !1
animosity and offered to shake hands j
with Matrin and forget the matter. J j
This Hurst, after urging, did. Later ;
it is alleged Hurst was reported to j j
have made further threats to "get"
Martin.
Saturday they met in town and
Hurst is alleged to have made tii eat

NEW YORK, Jan. 27.—An
appeal to women, released
from knitting for the Rel Cross,
to make protectors for
wounded soldiers and sailors
who have suffered the amputa-
tion of arms or legs has been is-
sued by the National Booth
Knitting Committees of the Na-
vy League, with headquarters
here. A model "garment" has
been knitted bv Mrs. Chauncey
M. Depew, wife of the former
Senator and approved by med-
ical officers of the Debarkation
Hospital Service, whose institu-
tions receive every week hun-
dreds of disabled men return-
ing from foreign service.
Men who have undergone
amputations sufferer from ex-
posure of the injured extremi-
ty, which is especially tender
and susceptible to cold, the
committee's statement said.
Doctors, it added, declared
that every man thus disabled I
should wear a protector under
his outer garment, and the]
committee hopes, with the aid |
of knitters throughout the i
country, to provide at least one
for everv wounded soldier re-
quiring them.
