Camlidalr for State Senator.
J!: Hills requests the Events to
call attention to bis candidacy for
cute senator from Garfield County
and to invite the support of all re-
4>nbll'ans at the forthcoming primary
election.
It will be the intention of Mr.
Hills, if be is nominated and elected
to the State Senate, to use his ut-
most endeavors to enact laws which
will relieve the taxpayers of a part
of their burdens, to abolish a large
Lumber of useless state offices, to
emend the legal code so that the
DANKKROI.lt LOGIC.
business of the courts may be ex-
pediated—in a word to use his time
and energy to bring about the bene-
fits to his constituents.
Certain is it that Mr. Hills would
not be a dead letter at the State Cap-
ital. There would be something stir-
ring all the time and he would be
right in the thick of it. And if there
was any corruption of legislators go-
ing on Mr. Hills would unearth It
and expose the guilty parties.
Since coming to Enid ten years
ago Mr. Hills has rapidly forged to
the front in the legal profession has
large abilities and is thoroughly
equipped to effectually serve the peo-
ple as state Senator.

AWARDED DIPLOMAS
Interesting K\oitIm*s Helil at Grad-
uation of O. C. I". S|>e< ial
Schools.
Twenty-three graduates of the
special schools of Oklahoma Chrls-
tiau university received their diplo-
mas last night and an interesting
program was given for the closing
exercises. The large auditorium of j
the university was crowded to the
doors and even standing room was at
a premium. The schools of music, j
oratory, church workers and the col-
lege of teachers, the department of
trained nurses and the school of fine
arts each had its graduates and a
nnmber of those who were given
their diplomas were on the program.
Following an overture by a violin
quartet which was beautifully rend-
ered, Miss Irma McMillan gave a se-
lection on the piano showing marked ' ■
ability with the intricacies of the
selection and demonstrating a rare
touch.
II Bado, by Arditi. was the vocal
solo given by Miss Jennie Mae Camp.
Miss Camp has a beautiful voice and
was given much applause by the
audience.
Miss Willa Harbert, a graduate of
the school of oratory, made a decid-
ed hit with two readings: "A Pair
of Platonics" and "Don't Cry Little
Girl, Don't Cry." Miss Harbert has
an ease and grace of delivery and
her rendering of the selections was
full of humor and pathos.
As a piano boIo, Miss Ina Logan
rendered the difficult Chopin's Pre-
miere Ballade Op. 23. Her rendition
was without a flaw and she was giv-
en onsiderable applause by the aud-
ience.
One of the most enjoyable num-
bers oa the program, however, was
a reading entitled A 8oclety Belle
is* Emma Mitchell a graduate
of the school of oratory. Mis3 Mitch-
J ell showed marked dramatic ability
and performed her one sided dia-
logue with much grace and expres-
sion.
A vocal solo by Miss Nema Botts
was beautifully sung. Miss Botts is
endowed with a voice of considerable
Bcope. sweetness and sympathy.
A piano selection from the "Beau-
tiful Blue Danube" by Miss Gladys
Robinson was the final numbe- and
was executed with much ease and
finish.
