Wednesday of the name week for the
purpose of exchanging Ideas and fur
ther studying tint conditions with a
view to Improving the same
on I'YIday the HUh of November
the county superintendent will hold
a teachers' aHHoclatlon In connection
with tin1 county rural school rally
at the county Heat If that Ih the most
Hiiltablo place. At all of thcHO meet
lugs speakers will be sent from va
rloiiH parts of the state from the unl
verslty A. M. College all the nor
mal schools aml all the state Insti-
lutloiiH the preachers teachers law-
yers doctors and every one who will
offer to raise his voice In tho Interest
of better rural schools.
The object of all this is to start
a movement that should dually lead
to the time when the boy and girl
of the rural Hohnol will have as good
a chance for an education as the boy
and Klrl In the city and town.
This movement Is beliu; carried on
by the state superintendent the rural
school commission and the county
superintendents and all people Inter-
ested in better rural schools and It
is being done without funds hence no
one should expect pay. The only
remuneration that any one will get
out of this work w ill be tho conscious-
ness of having done something to
better the rural school's condition
and the whole movement is calcu-
lated to do this state much real good.
The writer of this article has twelve
counties in southeastern Oklahoma
and It Is his desire that the moon-
light school be the main feature In
this part of the state for the number
of Illiterates In this part of the state
exceeds that of any other section.
However any movement that Is cal-
culated to arouse the Interest of the
fathers and mothers In the rural
schools so that conditions may he
made better will be pleasing to those
who are starting the campaign.
Kvery rural teacher should get In
touch with his county superintendent
at once and begin to plan for this

YETS Of BLUE
E
CONFEDERATE VETERANS AND
NOTED OFFICIALS INVITED TO
PARTICIPATE IN G. A. R. EN
CAMPMENT.
AVaHhlngton Aug. 31. As a court-
esy to the men who worj the gray
during the civil war the citizens'
committee of Washington has decided
to extend an Invitation to the staff
officers of the Confederate Veterans'
union to attend the forty-ninth an-
nual encampment yf the Gland Army
or the Republic which is to be held
in Washington September 27 to Octo-
ber 3. TIiIh action has heen taken
with the full accord and nrproval of
the officials of the Grand Army. The
meeting of the blue and tho gray on
the Gettysburg battlefield two years
ago tcHtlllcd to the amicable rela
tionship existing between the two
organizations and the invitation to
the Confederates at this time Is in
keeping with the spirit exhibited at
Gettysburg.
In addition invitations are being
extended to tho governors of states
and the members of their staffs as
well as to a largo number of other
distinguished officials of the United
States including of course the pres-
ident members of his cabinet and
members of the senate and house of
representatives.
General Nelson A. Miles has been
selected as the grand marshal of the
marching pagonnt which is to be held
in commemoration of the grand re-
view fifty years ago. Secretary Gar-
rison of the war department and Sec-
retary Daniels of the navy depurtnient
have designated officers to act as
military and naval aides to General
Miles upon this occasion.
The I7. S. Grant post of Brooklyn
has been selected as the special es-
cort for David J. Palmer commander
in chief of the Grand Army during
the parade.
An unusual ntid interesting feature
of the encampment week will be the
"dog watch" of the naval veterans
w ho are members of the gnnd army.
The "dog watch" to the navy men
is what the ra nipt! re is to the army
men but heretofore because of their
much smaller numbers the old sail
ors have not been conspicuous in
Grand Army reunions. At the forth-
coming encampment however they
are to be given special attention.

TRAINING
FOR YOUTHS
LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR TRAPP
HAS PLAN WHICH WOULD ADD
TO THE DEFENSIVE STRENGTH
OF THE NATION.
Oklahoma City Okla. Aug. 31. His
day spent at the Oklahoma militia
camp In Chandler last week was the
first intimate acquaintance of Lieut.
Gov. M. E. Trapp with the army. Mr.
Trapp was there as acting governor
and he made a brief address to the
regiment at the close of the day. He
admitted that while he is a bit in
doubt as to the meaning of the collar
Insignia of the officers and can't tell
a corporal from a sergeant by the man-
ner of their garments lie said that he
has thought much about national de-
fense and recognizes the necessity of
doing something to strengthen the po-
sition of the United States in the mat-
ter of preparedness.
Mr. Trapp has a plan that he thinks
might be worked out which would be
of benefit to the individual boys and
nlso udd to the defensive strength of
the nation. This in brief is the en-
listment of youths into the army for
a period while they are of school age
and the conversion iu part of the ar-
my posts throughout the country into
military schools that would afford a
course of study for the term of the
enlistment calculated to graduate the
boys with good educations and a zeal
for the military work.
Plan Meets With Favor.
Persons to whom 1 have mentioned
the plan are enthusiastic" said Mr.
Trapp. "The theory is that a great
many boys of the farms who will
never be able to get more than a com
mon school education in the ordinary
course of events might by my plan
receive a good education in the en-
vironment of the military and become
for years thereafter potential soldiers
for their country's defense. The edu
cated army officers in the many army
posts could carry on the Instruction iu
military and mathematics and they
could be supplemented by civilian
teachers on many other branches. The
time of the soldiers enlisted under this
plan could be devoted in part to leceiv-
itig an education and in part to mili-
tary duties.
"I believe that if this plan could
be adopted the United States would
soon have an actual army large enough
for national defense and still the stand-
ing army would not be Increased un-
duly. It will be a constantly growing
reserve army of trained men in the
art of warfare and in the pursuits of
civil life. The plan would offer unri-
valed opportunities for boys who want
an education and are unable to se-
cure it in the regular manner.
We have heard a great deal of talk
in the last few years about the waste
of natural resources. Hut this is a
much greater waste of the fine facili-
ties of thousands upon thousands of
young boys due to the fact that they
are denied the genial warmth and ex-
pansion afforded by a good education.
If we corrected that waste we would
have made great progress toward the
solution of all our ills. for. after all. it
Is education that is the leaven.
Boy Seek Education.
"The army Is today very much su-
perior to what It was when 1 was a
boy. Put when it Is understood that
life in the army means mental as well
as physical training and when especi-
ally a large number of our young boys
go into the army for the chief purpose
of procuring an education it Is evi-
dent that such a condition of affairs
is bound to have a very great uplifting
effect and ultimately to make the ar-
my one of the most satisfactory places
for a parent to have a boy."
Asked about the expense. Governor
Trapp mentioned that it is obvious
that our army officers have little to do
besides waiting for the call of war.
Magnificently trained and educated
men themselves what better precep-
tors he inquired could be desired. Out-
side of enlarging ou- present forts to
sccortmodate the increased nuniler of
Ten and purchasing the necessary
book and apparatus he thought that
his plan would entail very little ad-
:::or.al tprr.se. This expense he be-
lieved would t-e fully retrieved by the
creat savirc to the states owing to
: fact that r. ar.y of those now avail-

lug themselves of the opportunities of
the state institutions of higher learn-
ing would enter the army.
"We all know" said the Lieutenant
Governor "that when the federal gov-
ernment undertakes anything it usual-
ly accomplishes it in a much better
and more efficient manner than any
one of the Individual states. It could
and would introduce into the army life
with very little extra expense an edu-
cational course that would make the
courses of most of our state colleges
and universities seem very poor in
comparison. Add to this superb men-
tal education the inestimable benefits
of a magnificent physical training and
I believe that I am not indulging in
an idle dream when I state that by far
the greater part of the youth of this
nation would only be too glad to en-
ter the army under such Ideal circum-
stances." Present Opportunities Limited.
When asked if our present educa
tional facilities did not offer plenty of 1
opportunity to the boy desiring an I
education to work his way through j
college the acting governor remarked
that he believed the number of such J
opportunities to be far below the de-
mand. and then added: "1 am convinc-1
ed thut any number of boys w ho would
appreciate a good education are kept
from working their way through col- J
lege because young people often j
wrongly Imagine that there is some !
sort of social humiliation involved in j
it. Hut in the army outside of the !
division into officers and privates !
