A Newspaper That Serves
TUESDAY MAY 2 1922
PERSONAL LIBERTY
JX an English newspaper of recent issue appears
an advertisement bv the TTaio-
land .It is headed by a larpe type quotation from
j uiinunnK waters new play. "Oliver Cromwell."
"Let man think as he will but he shall not en-
force bis opinions on another man" is the state-
ment Drinkwater attributes to Crnmuvll
Following this the ad-writer indulges in a lit-
ne tiry scotch wit to the effect that Drinkwater
nt.rn "drink water" or he might drink Haig and
Haig whiskey but whatever he might drink is no
concern of another.
"This ad" says the writer "is being printed all
over the world by the Haig interests with the in-
ttntion of stemming the tide of DEMOCRATIC TY-
RANNY." The Haig advertisement is only one of the many
forms of propaganda. now broadcast to stem the
popular tide of prohibition. In America alone there
are more than 20 organizations organized and finan-
ced for the purpose of bringing about the repeal of
the Volstead amendment.
The liQuor issue is not a dead one by any means
and it probably won't die until thirst is finally
throttled.
The Haig advertisement Ss based on a fallacy
just as is all the propaganda injected into the veins
of the body politic by the liquor interests and that
falhcy is the fallacy of personal liberty.
Personal liberty is a fine thin? tr talk nhnnt -.n
to indulge in moderately but personal liberty ceases
where duty to society begins. That is the rea'l demo-
cracy and if it has the color of tyranny connected
with it. then the tyranny is for the sake of human-
ity happy homes clean-blooded children and sturdy
manhood and womanhood.
Persnoal liberty exponents as our friend the
writer of the Haig ad usually have an ulterior mo-
tiveeither an unslakable thirst or an itching palm.

lmtiKH :i rail of smoke.
Where there is Ktnuke there must
be soot i.nd this is constantly be-
ing hreatj.ed into the huifrs of the
people who live in ttnai commu-
nities. Manj- la lire cities have tnlten
steps to abato the smoke nui-
sance. New York has abated the
Smoke Kvil more than 60 per cent
by proper instruotion in hand stoking. Cincinnati has
accomplished 47 per cent abatement since 1914 by ef-
ficient Kvislation.
Cleveland is making the smoke nuisance one oi the
objectives of its present clean up campaign.
It is an e;tablished fact that diseases of the upper
respiratory tract that is diseases of the nose throat and
lungs are greatly increased by the irritation of coal
dust in the air. Pneumonia is Increased in frequency
and severity by pollution of the air with coal dust..
A smoke pall also shuts out the strong rays of the
sun nature's great bacteria killer.
When the air is dirty tt is difficult to keep streets
yards clothes and your own bodies clean which meat s
it is difficult to keep them healthy also.
The baleful physical effect of -smoky dark and dirty
air on human health and happiness has- been often em-
phasized. It is up to every individual in a smoky community
to fight for abatement of the nuisance. Kducation in
proper methods of legislation will go a long way toward
checking the smoke evil.
BertonBraleys Daily Poem
SLIP IT TO HIM!
When a felK.-- has a scheme or a visirni or a dream
Into which he puts his very heart ami soul
When he's Rame to work and figlut through Uie day
time and the night
If It only brings him nearer to his goal
You can help him quite a bit you .'an bolster up his
Brit
You o.'tn cheer him 'mid his troubles that annoy
You can give him pep and vim if you'll slip a boost
to him
With a gay enthusiastic "Attaboy."
"Attaboy Attaboy."
Its' a tonic It's a Joy
It's a phrase of honest praise without alloy;
Oh It keeps him on his toes
And it thrills him as he goes
When you boost hint witli a shout of "Attaboy."
There will always be a floclc of the kind of folks who
knock
Or who stand around demanding to be "shown"
And they're useful in a way for they make a man
display
All the vigor and the strength that he may own;
But a good old hearty yell from the friends who wish
him well
Never hurt a man whatever Ids employ:
When he's straining every sinew if there's sporting
blood within you
You will show it wHJi a shout of "Attaboy."
"Attaboy Attaboy."
It will help him to destroy
All the doubts and fears and worries that annoy;
You can make his heart-strings throb
When he's sweating on the job
If you'll sing out "Uo it kiddo. Attaboy."
REAL POLITICS
JvjO cleverer political coup has been consummated
in the history of state politics than that which
has foisted John Fields into the limelight as Repub-
lican candidate for governor.
Those who are prone to believe the voice of the
people is responsible for the sweeping demand for
Fields as G. O. P. candidate are those who are un-
initiated into the mysteries of political machination.
From the time when Fields declared that he
couldn't afford to run because he was only a poor
hard working editor until Monday when Republican
leaders urged him to "obey 'that impulse." the whole
Fields boom is worthy of admiration and acknow-
ledgment of genius.
And lo. the name of Guy P. Cobb of Ardmore
heads all the rest when the denoumeru discloses
who's who and what for. He's the little Napoleon in
the woodpile.
Give the Republicans credit for mass movement
carefully visioned. conceived and brought forth. They
have achieved something the Democrats of Oklaho-
ma with all their majority and popular power
haven't been able to do.
Of course the literal adoration bestowed upon
Fields and the wild acclaim drummed up among
smooth operating politicians doesn't quite fit the
actual character of the man. John Fields is not a
bad fellow. He's led more or less of an academic
life telling farmers and livestock men how to raise
cotton and hogs at so much per column. There is
nothing magnetic about him. neither has he ever
demonstrated any particularly masterly executive
ability.
In fact he wouldn't be a bad candidate for the
Republicans if he were not merely a cog in a great
political' machine which doesn't eminate in Okla-
homa at all. As Capper's Oklahoma lieutenant we
can't conjure up a picture of John Fields as our
governor.
Capper is all right in Kansas but we can man-
age to get along without a Kansas manipulated
government in Oklahoma.
THAT BATHERS' MARRIAGE
fHERE may be a hint of prudishness in our con-
tention but we can't help but believe that the
Presbyterian church officials are justified in a criti-
cism at least of the Lawton pastor who joined in
wedlock a bathing couple. And if the bathing epi-
sode is any index to the pastor's average thought
and conduct the elders are probably right in ous-
ter proceedings.
. The marriage vows taken in a bathing suit mny
be just ai sacred as those taken in broadcloth and
silk but somehow or other the idea doesn't appeal
as exactly impressive to us.

THAT IUNGLIXG RAID
Edltrr Ardmorelte: .
In regard to the raid on the athletlo
club here will say that the person
responsible for the write-up In your
paper last week was ignorant of the
facts or else mean. In the first place
the raid was staged by persona wanting
to get rid of a business that the town
has licensed to run and In the raid
not one bit of evidence waa found.
In the second place there was no
court of inquiry held touching- upon
this person Anderson or any one in
this part of the county.
Thought you might wish to know
that you may make corrections it it
should become necessary.

The wires today carry a statement by H. II. Motter
federal revenue collector for Kansas in which he says
that while the prohibition jaw may not be perlccrlv ?r.-
forced in that state "no such conditions exist ua prevail
in Oklahoma." He says furthermore that Kan is citi-
zens as a whole .are law abiding peopic.
Mr. Motter is perfectly right In standing up for the
people of his ttate and he is also justified in his in-
vidious comparson between tht-m and the people of Ok-
lahoma for he makes it upon Uie authority of Okla-
homa's governor.
Whatever else Governor Robertson may have accom-
plished during his tenure of office he has at least estadv
lished ano record. He is the only one of the forty-eight
governors of the United States to deliberately go out of
his way to maliciously and falsely slander the people of
an entire state.
it Is lo be regretted that Governor Robertson saw fit
This Is not putting it any too stroncr. Governor Rob-
ertson knew when he declared that there is not one

drinks are not manufactured that there is no founda-

STAKT THIS SKKIKS IIKKK.
Marriage was not to be permitted to
Interfere with the individual liberties of
Jack and his bride. Perhaps they for-
got about bills social demands and
other matrimonial responsibilities!
Three months have I been trying to
create a social splash. At least that's
what Jack calls my social success when
be teases me.
Jack hasn't been very helpful. I've
had to manage it myself. Indeed Jack
has complained more than once.
"Must we go out tonight?" he has
asked at breakfast when I've reminded
him of an engagement for the evening.
Really nothing except chess can be re
lied upon to dig him out of his deep
chair in his own living room.
Jeanne said when I complained to
her:
"Your husband's mighty compliment-
ary to you my dear. What's the mat-
ter with you brides now-a-days? You
run about so. Now if I had a real man
like yours in a real home like this I'd
be glad to stay put! Flattered if he
wanted to!"
"But a wife must help a man alcng"
I replied. "And this is the best way I
know."
"Re a sport. Reg! Own up 1hat yr.u
love to go and dress and be see i every-
where and make men laugh i.t jour
sinart.speeches! You don't do it all for
Jack you know!"
"Well why shouldn't I like it? Ev-
ery girl's entitled to a good time some
time. I've never had any until now.
It It happens to coincide with what's
best for Jack so much the better! I'm
really succeeding nicely. People are
lovely to me."
And. Indeed I was succeeding re-
markably considering how little money
we have
There had been morning bridge at
several of the nicest houses; philan-
thropies to which I contributed oodles
of time instead of checks; I had man
aged a paying rummage sale and near
ly died of the flu I'd taken from the old
clothes; we ran up our first doctor's
bill. It was lu my desk with my wthcr
bills.
But that rummage salo fixed my pop-
ularity with some of the most exclu
sive matrons of the city. We wer. get-
ting more Invitations than we could af
ford to accept.
It simply broke my heart when we
were invited to join a golf club and
Jack turned it down. We couldn't af-
ford that he explained. Sometimes I
fancy Jack is barely reconciled to giv-
ing his time to social affairs.
And I'm sure that the dear boy hasn't
discovered how expensive it is to go
about as we've been doing. It's so nec-
essary however as a kind of Invest
ment for future profit.
Once Jack asked me quizzically if I
didn't think him competent to manage
tho business end of matrimony in his
own way! Ho wasn't finding fault he
was only teasing me. He went on to
say that we hadn't had a quiet week
at heme after our first month.
Sow tho fact is that If I didn't get
.Tack out with moneyed penrle he'd
settle down contentedly to his books
and his chess and all my hope of living
on the boulevard would go a-glimmer.
Ing!
I will not stand for that. Poverty
has played too big a part In my life.
My big trouble Is not going to be
with our future it's now while I'm
making my social investment.
Everytlmo I chance to open thnt
drawer In my desk those bills remind
me of what It costs to keep going at
our present pace.
