SCHOOL JOURNALISM.
The first number of The Criterion
for the year lftlt-l.j Is from the
press and the schools of the city
should feel proud of the work of Ita
school edif.org and of Ita printer.
The arhool paper i really a work
of art. The Criterion Ih full of In-
tercut to Ardmore poople. The edit-
orial work Ih far above what la ordi-
narily expected of pupils. There la a
rlrift of dlncerlty about the exprHHlon
that hrlntrs conviction of the earneat
nena of the staff.
There Ih fun on the phk' de
voted to that rlafis of literature but
the fun Ih of a high order. The II-
lustrationa this year are not bo plen-
tiful but their absence Ik more than
made up In the aoundrieaa of the
matter published It reflects much
thought It reflects n unefiilneH that
the achoola will appreciate.
The editor brings out the point
that The Criterion Ih not a IliKh
school pnp'T exclusively but. belongs
to nil the schools of the city nnd
outlines a reiiHonable plan for the
cooperation of the ward schools
and tives to each ward Hh work to
be done. The editors are Freeman

A MASTER STROKE.
The unanimous election of Dr. F.
M. Masters pastor of the Broadway
Baptist church of Ardmore to the
presidency of the Oklahoma ftaptist
University demonstrates that he is
the bitrgest Itaptlst In Oklahoma. Ids
election is a well deserved honor.
Ills acceptance will mean the tic
cess of the Baptist university. It is
a deserving honor for the reason that
Or. Masterg is one of the most un
tiring workers in the atate and
coupled with his energy is ability to
organize and a powerto execute and
to lead. It niesnn the success of the
university for the reanon that it
Htlll liouu i.l !! hen1 a man if won-!
derful resources a man who will
arouse every Baptist church In the
state to a full sense of the respon-
sibility of the university and who
will Inspire the Baptists with a zea!
for progress in Christian education
that will not be content to stop until
success In Its inllest measure lias
been realized.
The Oklahoma Baptist university
must cometo with the State l.tii-
verslty with the preparatory schools
and with tlie A. & M. College which
are supporter by the stale. In order
to compete wllh tlie state Institutions
he must engage the best teachers
and they must be paid. Me also must
have college equipment in order to
attract students.
Dr. Masters is a man who plans
well. When lie has thought out a
subject there in little else to Jk lidd-
ed. When his pbniH are made he
marshals his forces and never quits
until he wins. He Is a young man
and physically able to stand up un
der th enormous amount of work
thai must bo done.
IIIh chief work will be as teacher
or Hie Bible but the Baptists as a
(leuomlnnTion will look to him to
make the institution u financial suc-
ess. We know Hie man we know
what he has don here; we know the
power of his ability to organize and
lo execute and wo bellevo the Bnp-
tiHta of the state have chosen the
right man. We believe his salary
will be doubled after his first year's
work. We believe as a result of the
action of (he hoard in electing him
that it. has In one day made the
master stroke that means a great
Ilapllsl university for the state.
While this town can III afford to
give him up yet we must not allow
our selllshness (o stand In the way
of the advancement of Christian ed
ucation.
DIVORCE DAY SET DOWN AS THE

trict court will convene Monday morn-

PURE BLOOD MAKES
HEALTHY PEOPLE
Hood's Sardaparilla surely and ef-
fectively removes scrofula boils and
other blood diseases because it drives
out of the blood all the humors that
cause these diseases. They cannot be
stircessl'ully treated in any other way.
External applications for their re
moval have proven almost useless
because they cannot drive out the
impurities that are in the blood.
Jlood n barsapanlla makes pure
nrh blood perfects the digestion and
builds up the whole system. The skin
becomes smooth clean and healthy.
This great blood remedy has stood the
test of forty years. Insist on havinsr
! flood s for nothing else acts like it.
Thcro is no real substitute. Get it
today. Sold by all druggists.
CONTINUED KROM PACK ONE.
tie which la being fought with such
Intensity farther north between the
Rivers Vistula and WurUt In which
all agree the losses on both sides
have been very heavy. There is an
inclination to believe that had there
been any probability of an early suc-
cess for the Germans In this field Km-
peror William who has returned to
Berlin would have remained to wit-
ness the victory of his troops.
Tin! battle in tlie west appears to be
at a standstill. The allies and the
(ioniums have attempted to take the
offensive ut different points along the
front but as neither cluims to have
made any advances and as both offi
cial reports mention repulses of the
enemy It. Is evident that the attacks
which has been made have not met
with much success.
Under the title "Four Months of
War" the French bulletin of the arm
ies Is publishing a report of the en
tire operations of the war. In It the
explanation is made that the French
were unanin to take the ollenstve un
til the British Army was ready and
thai the advance into Alsace which
has been criticised as bad strategy
was destined to draw the (iermnns
from tho Belgian front. This plan
ilid not succeed It says and the ulllei
were driven hack to the Seine.
The arrival of Australian and New
Zealand contlngetitH in Kgypt on forty
transports Is quoted an another tri
umph for the British Navy. The (ier-
tiiitii cruiser Kmden was not far from
this fleet of transports when she was
overtaken and destroyed by tlie Aus-
tralian cruiser Sydney. It is taken for
granted however that the convoy of
the transports was so strong that even
the Kmden would not have dared at-
tack them.
