I NOT SEEN IN
MORE THAN 18 YEARS
Okmulgee, Aug 17.—The story of
two brothers parted for eighteen
years, but united through the Red
Cross, came to light this week when
Phillip Swortz, an Okmulgee tailor,
told that he had recently located his
brother, Solomon Black, in London.
The lost brother is a tailor and fur-
rier In the English metropolis. When
Swortz last heard from him, about
eighteen years ago, the brother had
only one daughter; now his family
consists of seven sons, three daught-
ers, and two grandchildren.
Swortz had tried several detective
agencies in the search, but none of
them had been able to locate his
brother. At last, several weeks ago.
he decided to appeal to the Red
Cross since it was an international
organization.
Both the local tailor and the man
he sough* were too old to be in the
military service, but the civilian re-
lief department took up the case.
The local station sent a letter to the
station in London asking them to
locate Black.
In a few weeks a letter came back
from the I^ondon Red Cross saying
that Black had ben found, and giving
his address. The Okmulgee brother
'has written to him once or twice
now and received replies.
The difference in the brothers'
name Is due to the fact that the bro-
ther in England changed his name
when he went to the country. Swortz
was the original German name of
both, and it is taken from the Ger-
man word "schwnrtz." This word
means black, so when Solomon went
to England he adopted the English
meaning of the word for his name
but hip brother. Philip, stuck to the
name Swortz.

Washington. Aug 17—Three kids,
just out of a swimming hole in Rock
Creek park, were picked up Satur-
day by President Wilson, treated to
a 45-minuto motor ride and dropped
out at their home in town, go proud
the folks there could not hold them
with a rope.
The trio had just come from a dip
in one of the park's streams and
were hiking along the road side
when they saw the White House car
land recognized the president. Off
came their caps and as Mr. Wilson
ordered the car stopped, they timid
ly approached and asked how he was
getting along.
"Hop In." said the president, and
they hopped.
All along the ride they kept their
eyes on tbe president and Mrs. Wil
son and answered questions they
asked. Water from tousled heads
trickled over their sunburned faces
and dropped on the president's shoes
One youngster ducked to save the
president's shine and apologized, but
was told not to worry.
'Coming down Connecticut avenue
the youngest of the trio, a thin frail
lad barely eight years old. spied
kid he knew and called to him by
name. The youngster in the street
dropped a loaf of bread and grasp-
ed.
When the kids got out all three
shook hands with the president and
hlg wife.
'So long bo." one shouted to the
secret service man on the front seat.
The president lifted his hat and
started home.
