A NATION'S SHAME
When great emergencies come into
one's life when It Is imperative that
the right thing be done Ht tlie right
time then it is that one appreciates
the weights that his own habits have
placed upon him. Just so with a na-
tion. Kngland furnishes a pointed ex-
ample of this truth today. There has
been a criminal delay in transporta-
tion of men to' the front soldiers have
suffered in the trenches for lack of
supplies the efficiency of the army
has been crippled because there has
been a weight which the nation car-
ried that materially interfered with
its ease of operation. That weight w ith
Kngland is the habit of drink. The
men entrusted with the work of con-
veying supplies have sacrificed their
time to drunkenness. While men suf-
fered in the trenches fighting for na-
tional honor others whose duty it
was to supply them have been In a
listless lifeless stupor from drink.
The English government has become
aroused. King George is willing to set
an example of sobriety by eliminating I
alcohol from Ills household.
While the liquor men see the grave
situation that confronts the country
and the threatened destruction of their
business they propose that the gov-
ernment limit the sale of liquor to a
few hours dally but every chance is
Unit sale will he prohibited altogeth-
er Just as they are In Russia.
O
Dornlck Hill Club is destined to be
(lie Mecca of all golfers. During this
season players will be here from as
fur away as Kansas f'ity and from
Dallas. They will come to try the
Fame on the best links In the entire
southwest. Ardmore people scarcely
realize Just what they have in these
splendid grounds.

At last reports Russia's wh.-il was

CIVIL SERVICE AND ROADS
six states namely mmo. Kentuc
. V..i-b Vow
KV. AlHKttaCllUSl-HS ncn i
Jersey and Wisconsin now have civil
service laws providing for appoint-
ment of highway engineers and em-
ployes in accordance with tiie merit
system. A description of the system In
effect in each of the six states appears
in the Hood Rouds Year Hook Just is-
sued by the American Highway As-
sociation at Washington. The sum-
mary of autoiiiou:;e legislation In all
the states is of timely interest in
view of the fact that nearly 1900000
automobiles were registered in the
I'nited States during 1914 for which
more than 112000000 In license fees
was paid.
A nialoritv of the states are now
trying out the plan of working con
vlcts on public roads. In some states
the honor system prevails and guards
are partially or wholly dispensed
with. In other states guards are
deemed essential and between the
two systems much controversy rages.
The Year Hook with Its complete di-
gest of convict labor laws for all the
slates and its many references throws
much light on the subject. That con-
vict labor will go far toward solving
the road problem is demonstrated by
the experience of (leorgia with its
army of nearly six thousand road con-
victs and Virginia with about fifteen
hundred. The progress reports from
these two state appearing in the chap-
ter devoted to highway progress show
remarkable gains in mileage of im-
proved roads. The American Highway
Association linds the Year Hook one
of its most effective mediums lor car-
rying on the campaign for efficient1
and adequate Improvement In the con-
struction maintenance and adminis-
tration of the public roads.
O
WHILE THE IRON IS HOT
How necessary it is to do the right
ting at the right time was demon-1
stinted in the early days of Ardmore.
Frank Frensley who was then living
nt Dexter Texas had an opportunity
of buying for a small sum of money
what is now nearly all of the first
ward of this city. The opportunity
came at nightfall. It was necessary
for him to lie in Ardmore next morn-
ing. There was a competitor who had
in mind the same purchase. It was
a dark rainy stormy nlglil. Red river
had to be crossed. Hut nothing was
allowed to get in his way. He came
on horse-hnck forded the river rode
through the dark night and was in
Ardmore the next morning. The pur-
chase was made a furrow was run
to mark the boundaries of the Frens-
ley purchase. The town kept growing
Mrs. Frensley kept selling lots his
fortune was growing every day and
this one transaction put him on easy
.ireet for the rest of his life.
One of the foundations for the
Rothschild fortune was laid in I he
same manner. One of the early mem-
bers id' that family who had opportuni-
ty to see the Knglish victory over the
French at Waterloo made a hasty
ride across the clmmiel and began a
reckless purchase of property. This
property doubled in value many times
when It was known that Kngland was
safe from her enemies and the hasty
ride and the large purchase resulted
in creating many of the millions that
went into the two billion dollar es-
tate of the family.

Oklahoma City p.-:l 1 When
Governor R. L. VA iIIIriih Thursday
signed Hoiifc Bill ; o 1130. by Har
rison of the bous'.t and Hugh of the
senate another : t llio constitution'!
economical lov'tio'is automatically
became effective. This act cr-atcs
the offices of all employes of the
legislature and fixes their salar.et'
It precludes a legislature from in
creasing the number or pay of its
assistants by general law which can
not take effect during the session
at which the licrease was made.
The governor signed nearly a score
of other bills Thursday including
the measure abolishing tbe office of
supreme court reporter. He also has
signed the "jim crow'' telephone bill
providing that all telephone com-
panies shall provide private booths
for negroes when demanded by pat-
rons. Tlie 'power of determining
whether a special booth for negroes
is needed at particular places is be-
stowed on the corporation commis-
sion. The governor as yet has not
acted on the bill repealing the anti-
cigaret law.
There are more than fifty bills still
on the governor's desk. If he does
not approve them by April 6 or fif-
teen days after the adjournment of
llie legislature they die. The gover-
nor has indicated several times
however that he will not allow any
act of the legislature to thus per-
ish though he probably will apply
the "blue pencil" to items In some
of the appropriation bills.

BLACK HAND BANDS LINE-
UP FOR EXPECTED BATTLE
MiiTion. 111. April l.-Two armed
hands of Italian miners each about
2.10. strong tonight began entrench-
ing themselves in the mining district
near here in preparation for a battle
resulting from a Hlaek Hand feud
in which three were killed and one
probably fatally wounded a few days
ago.
At S o'clock tonight a telephone
message informed the sheriff here of
the Impending battle and a few min-
utes later he and twenty deputies
from Marion and Carterville started
for the scene of the trouble. It be-
came known tonight that the warring
factions! hud purchased almost all
Hie guns and ammunition available
in Williamson countv.
Twenty-one men. several of thetn
confessed members of a Hlaek Hand
society were jailed following the pre
vious shooting. The police however
have pot been able to learn the
cause of the feud which some Jtal
inns say began in Italy.

Not a Full Explanation.
The manifestation called heat Is
with humans and most other animals
a sensation indescribable. From the
time of Democritus nd Kplciirus nd
far back of that the mystery of the
source of ha.t was hotly discussed.
As time flew on and on the mystery
was segregated Into learned words
and Sir Humphry Davy explained it
nil by saying that heat was merely the
vibration of corpuscles of the body.
He did not tell of the origin of the
corpuscles or why they vibrated.
