IT’S HARD TO HATE A MAN

Oklahoma’s fight against filfth-
bourne diseases, which have taken
more than 30,000 lives during the
past twelve years in the state,
has, thus far during its existence
in the form of community sanita-
tion program starting up in’1935.
reduced deaths and cases from
filth-bourne diseases better than
52% in the state, as announced by
Dr. Chas. M. Pearce, State Health
Commissioner today.
Dr. Pearce sums up the Com-
munity Sanitation Program very
completely by saying: "Usually,
when we talk of building toilets so
constructed as to elmininate bad
and unpleasant odors and, being
“fly-proof," we have only one ob-
ject in view—convenience. Yet
sanitary fly-proof pit type toilets
are of much greater importance
than merely convenience, for they
safeguard the health of the peo-
ple of the state by preventing the
filthiest, most dangerous insect
known to man—the house fly—
from coming in direct contact
with human excreta, or body
waste, which may contain the
deadly germ of typhoid, diarrhea,
dysentery, tuberculosis, diphthe-
ria, smallpox, infantile paralysis,
or hookworm.
constant hunt for food, enter the
kitchen, crawl and wade through
foods prepared for human use,
leaving in its wake germs which
are sure to enter the human body
possibly causing severe illness and
of times death.
It isn’t pleasant to think of, but
it is true, nevertheless, that every
case of typhoid fever is caused by
a specific germ which has come
from the intestinal discharge of
someone who has had the disease
at some time.
We don’t breathe in the germs
of typhoid, we eat or drink them.

The general public looks to the
chamber of commerce to promote
the business and social welfare of
the community and its cnief inter-
ests in civic affairs are directed to
those matters that relate to Hom-
iny's needs. It interests itself in
issues that are of importance to
every element in the business com-
munity.
It keeps before it the fact that
it represents the entire business
community upon which the pros-
perity and progress of Hominy de-
pends. It deals only with essen-
tials and does not waste its ener-
gies and resources upon unimport-
ant matters.
My contributions to the efforts
and accompiisnments of the cham-
ber of commerce have always been
gladly and freely given because its
program was dedicated to the wel-
fare and advancement of our

At last, Hominy's baseball fans
will soon have an opportunity to
see a softball game under flood-
lights.
It was announced yesterday
that the balance of the lighting
equipment, ordered for several
weeks, will arrive sometime today,
and will be installed as soon as
possible. It was hoped that the
lights can be installed in time for
the opening game to be played
next Tuesday night, June 28. The
exact date of the opening of the
season will be announced in the
News Friday.
Meantime, work is being rushed
on the erection of the poles, so
that the lights can be installed at
1 once. A certain amount of wiring
will be necessary, but with the ar-
rival of the reflectors the major
cause of the delay has been elim-
inated.

and with the possibility of
others being added to the

is to give one cent a gallon to the

customer, for each gallon of
Barnsdall gas purchased for cash.
"We will mail the checks out the
first of each month to each or-

Three safe bingles were all that
the D-X Oilers could scratch off
"Salty’’ Hartshorne and Jack
Thompson, Pure Oil moundsmen,
but were enough when aided by 3
Oiler errors, to give them a 2 to 0
win Friday night at Pawhuska.
On the other side of the ledger
the Pure boys were collecting 5
safeties but no runs.
This was an exceptionally fast
game featured by sparkling plays
turned in by both teams. Chuck
Ewing and Ray Housley turned in
the two fielding gems of the game.
Ewing, Oiler 2nd baseman, leap-
ed high into the air and snared a
hot liner that was labeled for at
least three bases. Housley’s catch
was the shoe-string variety when
he came in fast from deep left to
make the catch.
A 6th inning Pure Oil rally was
cut short of its mark when Pettit
was called out at home, the um-
pire ruling that an extra player
was near the coaching line at
third base and that the score made
was illegal.
Anthony pitched and Rust did
the catching for the D-X ten while
Thompson relieved Hartshorne in
the 6th and Stephens was behind
the plate to form the Pure Oil bat- 1
tery.
Play Carter Nine Tonight
Beginning 8:15, the Oilers will
battle the Carter Nine team from

Thursday night, the Oilers and

of the Bartlesville league, will
tangle in a game earmarked, "you

son anywhere." The game is call-
ed for 8:15 and will be played on
the Arondale diamond.

In a city the size of Hominy everybody knows
nearly everybody else. Friendship and goodwill pre-
vail in most cases and are a great civic asset. One
unkind remark may create a feeling which not only
hurts individuals, but damages the town.
This is no mawkish appeal to smother legiti-
mate criticism. Sometimes it is necessary to speak out
sharply in order to right a wrong. But no one should
ever speak critically of another on hearsay or by rea-
son of prjudice.
If you have an unfriendly feeling about some-
one, we suggest you pay him a visit. Get acquainted
with him. If the matter troubling you is important,
tell him about it frankly and iron it out between you.
Above all, if you hear an unkind or dangerous
statement about a man or firm, challenge the maker
of it. Ask him where he got his facts, and whether
he knows they are facts. Take occasion to check up
his statements, and if they are not true, take the
trouble to set him right.
Above all, get acquainted with your neighbor—
you might like him. He might even like you!
