OP MOST FAMOUS MEN

mer American secretary of state Who
recently took part In the work ot
the commission of Jurists at Tho
Hag-'a for tho establishment of a
permanent International court of
Justice today formally presented to
the British peoplo the Saint Gauden's
statue of Lincoln in Canning Square
a-i a gift from America. Later thu
statuo was unveiled. Premier Lloyd
George made a speech of acceptance.
The presentation was made in the
presence of a diwtlngulshed audience
in the central hall of Westminister.
The event was widely heralded in
the British press as further Cement-
ing Anglo-American friendship.
In the course of his address Mr.
Root declared:
"It Is the- identical fundamental
conceptions in both countries- which
makes it Impossible that in any great
world emergency Great Britain and
America can be on opposing sides.
These conceptions of justice and lib-
erty are the breath of life for
both. While they prevail both na-
tions will endure; if they perish both
nations will die. These were Lincoln'
inheritance."
TO
HOLD PEACE CONFERENCE
WITH SOVIET RUSSIA IN
EPEORT TO ESTABLISH
London July 28. The. decision reach-
ed by Premier's Millerand and Lloyd
George at their Rologne conference
yesterday to stand by the original
plan for a peace conference Willi the
Russian Soviets and tho London con-
ference which the Soviets demand
should tnke place unless the bolshevikl
reversed their present attitude and
agreed to discuss at thy conference
peace with Poland with all qUalii'ie.l
representatives of Russia and the bor-
der states In attendance receives no
enthusiastic endorsement by the Lou-
don press. It is said bolsh'jvik papets
roundly denounced this saying they
will bring nearer to them diplomatic
relations.
I'remier Lloyd George 'whom these
papers regard as anxious t establish
relations with the Russian soviet is
sharply criticised as one of them puts
It "for surrendering to tho bolshevikl
and creating by his policy a very seri-
ous situation."
The London Times declares the mat-
ter "Is too gravo for Irrevocable decis-
ion behind closed doors." and- main-
tains that It must be submitted to the
parliaments of the allies. The papers
sympathize with the French view that
America must have a voice in the
question implying lis belief that Am
erica would repudiate an agreement
based on the bolshevik conditions.
The Daily Telegrtiph bitterly he
ments the necessity to have dealings
with the bolshevikl and ndmlts "If
we do not fight Russia which Is the
last thing anybody desires we must
come to a definite understanding with
her."
The Chronicle declares the Rologno
conclusion as a "Judicious mlddle-for
mula."
German Arrogance Visible
Berlin July 28. That Germany
should bo represented in the proposed
conference between " allied and soviet
representatives at London was the
opinion expressed In the relchstag to-
day by Dr. Waited .Simons German
foreign secretary.
"I am curious now to sec" the sec-
retary declared "whether in tho nego-
tiations soon to begin eastern ques
tions between soviet Russia and the
allies would mako the mimo mistlte
as at Versailles when It understood
to solve the eastern European qucs
tlon namely that of proceeding with'
out Germany. If that should happen
then eastern peace will become a
houso of cards much more unstable
than the peace of Versailles ever can
become." "

sel regarding their details. He

E
OF
IN
TATIOUS AND
QUIET
MANNER TODAI
Today marks the 23rd anniversary of
the founding of the city of.. Ardmore.
The day was quietly observed noth-
ing In the way of a celebration of
the event taking place. Plans fur a
big anniversary picnic were abandoned
on account of the political activities.
Reminiscence of things ot the past
were indulged in by pioneer citizens
who were in Ardmore when the first
house was erected and thy first lent
staked down and predictions mado of
the future growth of the city.
When the city began Its growth
With he advent of the Santa Fc rail-
way it was not much in comparison
to what it is today.
The old 700 ranch house near the
spring in the southeast part of the
city was the center of all local inter-
est and many stirring tales of events
that occurred them could be recounted
by those who were the pioneers who
founded a future great city.
Pioneers I'mlaunted By Misfortune
A few years after the city was
founded a devastating fire swept al-
most the entire business section away
and cast a gloom over the inhabitants
who had labored so hard to establish
themselves. With a courage that lias
characterized the actions of Ardmore-
lies from the beginning they did not
sit idly by in despair but went to
work with a will and in a few short
months the city Phoenix like had
arisen from its ashes and was once
more on its way toward greatness.
A second fire a few years later also
failed to diminish the courage of the
pioneers.
For several years after the found-
ing of the city it was tho custom for
the pioneers to hold a big anniversary
picnic and invite people from this en-
tire section to come and partake with
them but in late years the practice
has been abandoned although at-
tempts have been mado to revlvs
that spirit.
Untold Wealth at Gates
When Ardmore was first founded no
one dreamed of the immense wealth
that lay beneath tho surface of the
earth almost at the very gates of the
city and it was not until years after-
wards that the discovery of oil was
made and a field developed that is
now rapidly extending until oil men
predict it will bo among tho largest
in the country.
While Ardmore was a struggling
hamlet trying to grow into a city the
only resources that it depended upon
for support was farming and stock
raising. Gradually the caltloman was
supplanted by the tenant farmer until
with few exceptions the old time cat-
tle king Is hardly known any more
in this immedinto section.
Substantial Growth
When oil was discovered In largo
quantities In u: Henldton field after
the Santa Fe Conjunhy had exploited
the Wheeler district the city Immedi-
ately began to take nn upward flight
and from the time the first big well
was drilled In at Ragtown Ardmore
has enjoyed a steady substantial
growth until today it stands out as a
city of homes with Immense fortunes
invested in the oil business and with
tho eyes of all the fraternity now
turned toward the Hewitt field that
Is gradually extending the area east
toward the western gates ot tho city.

Indeed the last half of the race
resolved itself Into a race of th'j de-
fender against time Willi the fate of
the contest resting on tho wind for
the challenger was about one inil-?
r.eterri when the American sloop
flashed over tho line.
It was a thirty mile windward and
leeward race I his final contest of
1920 started in light airs after post-
ponement at 13 minutes intervals for
two bonis and a onarter.
After having been led by the chal-
lenger two-thirds of the distune? f.
the first mark a windward leu Reso-
lute crossed her hows ten miles irura
tho start and breezed Into a lead
which sho maintained and steadily in-
creased to tho finish line. By the time
22 miles of the ccurso had been cover-
ed the defender was a mile and a
half In tho lead reaching back and
forth on her way to the finish line. At
ono time toward the end she was twe
miles ahead of Shamrock but th;
challenger came up to within a mile
at the finish.
Wliile waiting for Shamrock to finish
the steam yacht Victoria ran down
to Resolute and all hands led by
Sir Thomas Lipton gave the vlctoi
three cheers. The spectators fleet
gavo tho defender such a noisy wel-
come as she crossed the line that
it could be heard ten miles away
on shore.
