A Popular, Crowing Town
Mooreland is growing at a pretty
fast rate, and no "special induce-
ment" is being offered either. The
growth is a good healthy one,
brought on by the towns own
merits, not by undeserved praise
sung by interested parties.
Mooreland is the least advertised
town of any prosperous town we
know of in Oklahoma still she is
keeping along the first ranks of the
new towns and her growth is won-
derful. It was only a short time
ago when there was not the sign
of a building here. Now new
houses are being built continually
and in the last three months no
less than 20 or 25 new buildings
have been erected. People who
see this place like it, the citizen*
are wide awake and progressive
they have money and they spend
it for the common good, every bus-
iness in town is flourishing, every
farmer has a good word for his
town—Mooreland, aid everybody
comes to Mooreland. These are
the prime factors ot Mooreland®
growth and popularity The town
is improvaig every day and every-
body is glad to :->ee i..

Wed
A pretty wedding occurred Sun-
day afternoon at 3 o'clock, at the
W.F.Laird home north of the city,
when Richard T. Shea and Miss
Priscilla Tinsley, both of Granite,
Okla., were united in marriage;
Rev. D. Noble Crane officiating.
The bride is a niece of Mr:
Laird and is a very popular young
lady. The groom is a strang r
here but is an industrious, pro-
gressive young man and is employed
as director in the Ruggles Granite
Co.
In honor of the event Mr. aud
Mrs. Laird invited a number of
their friends to the occasion and
they, with all the other acquain-
tance of the young couple, wish
Mr. and Mrs. Shea a happy voyage
through life.

Who Pays the Advertising Bill
Did you ever think about it?
Who pays for the advertising of
merchants and other business men?
Not the advertiser, for the, cost is
returned to him two-fold in in-
creased profits.
Not the purchaser, for he buys
cheaper from the advertiser and
has a better assortment and fresher
goods to select from. Who, th(.n,
really pays the advertising bills?
The non-advertiser, of course.
A just proportion of the money he
loses by his lack of initiative and
enterprise finds its way eventually
to the printer,to advance the cause
of education and the interests of
the community. Is.'t it-plain?
The "store keeper" is a relic of
the past; the merchant is an active
being of to-day.

question to their own satisfaction.

Tent,h Anniversary
At their home in this city, Sun-
day, Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Ruttman
celebrated their tenth wedding an-

forts to co. rect the manners of his
office boy. One morning not long
ago the young autocrat of the office
blew in, and* tossing his cap at a
hook, exclaimed: "Say, Mr.Blank,
there's a ball game at the park to-
day,and I am going down." Now,
the attorney is not a hard hearted
man, and he was willing the boy
should go,but he thought he would
teach him a lesson in good manners.
"Jimmie," he said kindly, "that
isn't the way to ask a favor. Now,
you come over here and I'll show
you how to do it."The boy took the
office chair and his employer picked
Tragedy
O. R. Hay worth, a farmer who
lived at Bethany, near May, last
Friday night killed Louie Hudson
aged 14,and Cecil Hudson aged 17,
shot and probably fatally wounded
their mother, who was his second
wife, and then ended his own
miserable existance. A 45 calibre
revolver was his weapon.
Mrs. Hayworth, who received a
bullet through the left lung close to
the heart, was at first reported
killed but the latest reports indicate
that she has a possible chance to
live. She and Hayworth were
married only last February. Are-
cent drunken assault upon the boy
by his step-father brought a crisis
and the mother sued for divorce
and alimony. This action resulted
in the tragedy.
Dr. McLeod of May was called
to attend the wounded woman, and
shortly after Midnight on Friday
telephoned to sheriff Cooley. It
was belei\red that Hayworth had
made his escape. Sheriff Cooley
sent Under-Sheriff Potter and dep-
uty Smith to the scene and the
officers discovered upon arriving at
the scene that the murderer had
killed himself. A11 inquest over the
three bodies was held by Justice of
the#Peace Frank Enlow who had
no difficulty in arriving at the facts
in the case.
The wounded woman has two
brothers living northwest of May
who will care for her in the event
that the wound does not prove fatal.
Hayworth was well and unfavor-
able known in Woodward. He
was landed in jail here several
months ago for creating a distur-
bance in a local rest a u rant, and was
seen on the streets here only a day
or two prior to the tragedy of last
week.—Dispatch
