$6 per day and no interim pay or
mileage.
Only the citizens can raise the
pay of legislators. The legislature
controls the pay of every em-
ployee and most slate officers
whose pay is not set by law —
but cannot give themselves any
pay or expenses except that pro-
vided by a vote of the people.
PLAINLY SPEAKING
George's
Counties, announced that he will
begin using coyote getters in Oct-
ober. These cyanide - type guns
are quite effective to controlling
coyotes. In areas where Flynt is
trapping or using coyote getters
signs will be posied near gates or
along roads adjoining the prop-
erty. Although the coyote getters
are not a hazard to livestock,
they are quite dangerous for dogs
that might be in the area.
At an Area Development meet-
in " in Oilton recently, Lloyd K.
All i. Head of the Department of
Commerce and Industry, met with
community leaders in Creek Co-
unty in an effort to study ways
for economic growth in the coun
tv area. Much emphasis was giv
en to the recreational potential
due to developments at the Key-
stone Lake. For persons who are
interested in investing in recrea-
tional opportunities, an excellent
reference book is available at the

Also, the Bristow Lions and Ro-
tary Club, as well as the Drum-
right Rotary and Lion's Club,
have helped to make this trip
possible At times other groups
have assisted with the expense of
ihis trip, depending on what area
of the county the youngsters re-
side.
Actually it is very difficult to
mention assistance on agricultural
programs in Creek County by
Civic groups without omitting
someone. Foj- instance, during the
recent Fairs Chambers of Com-
merce and (Jivic Clubs, especially
helped tremendously to make the
versity at a small cost. This book
is called, “Feasibility Study in
Recreation in Eastern Oklahoma."
This book is the result of an in-
tensive survey and study of bus-
ini ,es in the Eastern Oklahoma
l ake area, that derived much of
the r income from tourists. Lloyd
Allen mentioned that Keystone
should attract a large number of
people from Oklahoma City, as
wi ll is the Tulsa and Eastern
Oklahoma area.
Three County 4-H members are

American Royal 4-H Conference
in Kansas City this year. Becky

represent Crock County at this
> - Conference. Miss Thelma
Vv. Tit, Associate Home Demon-
s' at ion Agent, will supervise the
\<nin -ters at this year's event
wIiT h takes place October 17-21.
The 4-H Conference, in connec-
best improvements at the Sapulpa
Fair this ygar was due to the
assistance of the Sapulpa National
Guard Unit By the very able and
efficient assistance given by local
guardsmen, traffic was controlled
and cars were parked orderly.
Without such volunteer assistance,
it would not be possible to con-
tinue producing Fairs during tim
es of increasing cost.

ing Spring flowering bulbs. An ex

All seven questions must re-
ceive a majority of votes cast or
go down in defeat by the so called
silent vote. Many voters do not
understand that if they don't vote
on a general election the failure
to do so counts as automatic
"No" and is dued the silent vote.
The four state questions, 421-
22-23 and 24 have created the
most controversy of any of
seven.
SQ-414 Would Raise
Pay for Legislators
SQ 414 simply provides
monthly salaries of $100
tnomh for legislaiors, plus $25 per
day for a period of 75 legislative
days and allows $25 per day for
attendance at meetings of the leg-
islative Council and 10 cents per
mile.
Presently, the members of the
state legislature are only paid
$15 per day for 75 legislative days
during a session of the legislature
and $100 per month during the
interim. Members do not present-
ly receive any per diem or mil-

Direct Correlation Found
Between Income, Education
1he Old. 1imw.
By Henry Bellmon
Governor of Oklahoma
Oklahoma’s colleges and univer-
sities are opening their doors this
| month to a new crop of young
j boys and girls intent on further-
I ing their education. It may sound
a hit crude to refer to these stu-
dents as a “new crop" but never-
j thelcss it is a good comparison,
j Because I know of no greater
| yield than that which is produced
! by education.
Looking at the matter from a
strictly monetary standpoint, there
I are plenty of statistics to show
I that the income a person receives
is directly related to the amount
of education completed. The U.S.
Department of Commerce has re-
ported that during his working
years a college graduate can ex-
pect to earn around $420,000, or
about $180,000 more than the high
school graduate. Someone wi'h
only an eighty grade education
only an eighth grade education
ing his lifetime, which is less
than half that of a college gradu-
ate.
I he State of Oklahoma has done
a great deal to make opportuni-
ties for educational advancement
available to everyone who wants
to have the best preparation for
their future years. The state sup-
ports two universities, nine four-
year colleges and seven two-year
colleges, located geographically so
that they are within easy reach of
all citizens. In addition there ace
special institutions, such as the
School of Medicine, agricultural
and geological centers and the
technical school at Okmulgee.
There are 16 private and muni-
cipal institutions besides the state
supported schools.
A student can attend any one of
Oklahoma's educational institu-
tions for a comparatively reason-
able cost. There are many schol
arships and loan funds available
to help defray expenses. Many
students find jobs on campus or
in town.
Oklahoma is outstanding among
the states in the number of young
people who take advantage of
these educational opportunities.
About six out of ten high school
graduates in Oklahoma go to col-
lege, a rather high percentage.
College enrollments have doubled
in the past 12 years.
But the fact remains that many
of tommorrow's adult citizens are
passing up the chance for a col-
lege education, and in so doing
are cheating themselves of a bet-
ter life. They either don’t realize
the value of a good education, or
else they don’t have the deter-
mination to stay in school.
In these days of automation,
computers, space technology and
amazing scientific discoveries, it
is more important than ever that
our young people get all the educa
tion they can. I strongly urge
every boy and girl to keep on
learning as much and as long as
you can.
