WHAT ABOUT YOUR CHILD?
A duty co-itfionts every citizen of
Ardmore tomorrow In the proposed
ond Issue. The good people of thlfl
-uy have never turneU down the
Bchool Ibonrd on any proposition they
asked for. and It looks reasonable that
they will not do so tomorrow.
The Hoard give their service to tho
city they devote a great deal of time
to the work they have managed the
school so well that they occupy first
rank today hi the schools of the stato.
Tho board wants the school district
which comprises tho city of ArdmoM
to vote In 'bonds $12000 for the pur-
Pobo 0t Installing beating plants la
the four ward school buildings.
Their reasons are these:: Sixteen
hundred children are taught In tho
ward buildings. Slnco gas has been
depended upon for heat the schools
have dismissed three days each win-
ter different rooms have suspended
seliwul times tcaohcrs and (pupils
have occupied these rooms and tried
to work when the mercury ranged
from 0 to rG. As a matter of fact no
useful work can ho done in cold
weather. Classes got behind with
their work Interest Is lost and the
schools demoralized more or less. The
board wants to tako out the gas
stoves and put In furnaces to use coal.
They tried a cheaper plan last winter
and hought coal stoves and
Installed them. 'The flues
were not properly built for them and
the Boot and coal smoko filled thrt
room and no work could be done.
The eyes of the pupils were Injured
by tho dense smoke and their cloth-
ing and faces were covered with tho
coal soot. Tho supply of gas when
1t Is needed most has been low and
it will ho low In tho years to come.
Many parents very sensibly kept their
fhl'.drwi away from school during tho
severe wonther. Sitting In a room
where water will froezo will cause
colds sore throat and tonsilltls and
often loads to tuberculosis. The
child cannot resist these exposures
like; tho grown peoplo can. The chill
is at the mercy of the district he must
eeept what his parents give Mm at
he ballot box. Tho board believes

WIFE OF FEDERAL PRISONER.
liled of a broken heart. The man
who had shared her sorrows and her
joys for years the man who was the
father of her daughetr was In a fed-
eral prison and the woman could
not bear up under the Btraln and
death came to relievo her of her ln-
tenso sufferings and to heal ' her
vounded pride.
J. If. Dickinson is in a federal prison
at Leavenworth. Kas. For weeks
prior to his confinement in the federal
prison ho lay In a Mexican dungeon
whero the only offense .ie had com-
mitted was that he was an American
t-itl7.cn.
'lie is today In a fed?ral i r'son be-
cause his enthusiasm led him Into
plans made by others to tell stock
la a wireless telephone company
nicklnson -was a promcter and writer
stories. He was not
a newspaper man trained at the desk
but he could always find columns to
write about that other reporters would
overlook. Ho mado h'.s stories inter-
esting; he gave them a touch of ro-
mance and infused a life into them
that made the metropolitan papers
eager to publish them.
His home was at Davis for some
Mm. wiinro hn conceived the idea f
building tho Tirn.r Falls road lie
! Ba wa great summer resort in the
I Arbuckle mountain -.vhere the gush-
! lug waters Tree themselves fixm tho
1 mountains end form gorgtous wnter-
"falls on the sides o fthe hills. He saw
'great zinc mines giving up tlulr
wealth to tho world and he wrote
pages about the beauties and wealth
I of Turnor Falls. Davis caught the
1 spark of We from hU pen. they Faw
1 a railroad 'building west they saw :n
opportunity to 'build a city out of a
hamlet and did mako much progress
toward being a city lie touched Sul-
phur with his pen and thousands of
visitors camoi there. Ho helped to
gjvp Tulsa tho boom that made It on-i
of the best cities In tho state. (What-

nindo real estate owners wealthy
without growing rich himself. His
natural turn of mind led him to seek
another's and not IiIb own wealth.
Promoters placed -before him a
Block selling proposition. They led
him to believe that a system of wire-
less telephones could bo installed
throughout Texas and Oklahoma. The
dreamer that he was Dickinson be-
lieved It. He was a man who could
see diamonds where others could see
only dirt. Ho was charged wlUi us-
ing the malls to deJfraud and was con-
victed and sentenced to the federal
prison. Dickinson never wanted
money that belonged to others. He
ne-ver sought to rob any man. All
ho saw was the great system of wire
less telephony all he wanted was to
figure in such a progressive move
that his name might he written upon
tho pages of history that whole towns
might lio -benefited -by the progressive
work he was doing. Dickinson never
loved money so well that he would da
wrong to obtain It.
On the theory that he was pre-
sumed to know what the men back
or him were doing he was convicted.
His wife could not hear up under
the burden and when Dickinson is
given hl3 liberty he will still be In a
creater bondage 'because he can never
pull himself up out of the slough of
despondency which the death of his
wife will cast about him.
Some day there will be better means
of dealing with law breakers than
depriving them of their liberties and
of their usefulness.

Ardmore won from Texarkana yes
terday in tho twelfth inning. The
game was hard fought and was in
doubt until the winning run was
scored.
Mickey started the game for Ard
more ainl pitched eight innings be
tng succeeded by Weeks. Mickey did
good work having only one bad In
ning when three runs .were scored
off him. Weeks who succeeded
Mickey was very effective against
his former teammates. During the
four innings that he worked he did
not allow a hit did not pass a man
to first and struck out seven. Ful
welder went the full route for the
visitors. His wildness kept him In
hot water but he tightened up in
the pinches.
Ardmore scored first in the sixth
inning when Shelton was walked
on four wide ones. Gardner's sacrifice
advanced iShelton to second and when
Shelton tried for an extra base First
Baseman iMassey of the visitors threw
the ball away at third and Shelton
scored. The visitors scored three
runs in the eighth. Tierney was sent
in to hit for Hewitt and singled. Ful
welder's sacrifice advanced him to
second. Williamson responded with
a single Tierney scoring and Wil-
liamson going to second on the
throw-In. iSory's sacrifice put Wil
liamson on third and he scored when
Gardner dropped the throw to eaten
Ritter. Jlittcr stole second and
scored on O'Neal's single. Ardmore
tied the score in the ninth. White
reached first on Sory's error. Carey
singled 'White taking third. Pel-
key's sacrifice scored White Carey
going to second. Carey stole third
and scored when Manager Brooks
Gordon delivered a pinch hit to cen-
ter. With the score a 3-to-3 tie
there was nothing more in the scor-
ing line until the twelfth although
Fulwelder walked the bases full In
the tenth. After Shelton had been
retired at first in the twelfth In-
ning Gardner singled down the third
base line and when O'Neal threw
wild to second he went to third
from which he scored on a squeese
play. .
