I^a-st Friday and Saturday the en-
tire membership of the El Reno Auto
association seemed eager to take a
drive to Guthrie Sunday and arrange-
ments were made accordingly. The
El Reno visitors were to Ue met at
Navina by '.he Guthrie hosts and lunch
served, but when the time came for
the line up here only five autos cast
anchor at the Kerfoot and it was ten
o'clock before the start could be made,
therefore the boys here notified the
association that the excursion first
contemplated was off, and of course
the Nevina lunch was cut out, but the
five wideawake lads that did report
for duty made the hundred and thirty
mile trip, visited four hours in Guth-
rie and were home for supper.
Howard BoneUrake led off with his
big seven passenger car and the pace
he set was a hummer sure, in this car
were the following young ladies chap
eroned by Mrs. J. H. Naill, Lydia
Dashiell, Caroline Libby, Etta Kelly,
Hazel Engle and Sadie Bright, and it
was certainly a jolly company and
Mr. Bonebrake gave them a delightful
drive and gallant entertainment on
the entire trip, in fact the young lad-
ies have voted Howard the prince cf
entertainers. Following him came
Jack Vogel and wife in just about the
speediest lttle flyer in these parts, one
that made the far west last year and
is eager for further conquests. Jim
Gebhart headed in with his big runner
and with him his two sons. Arthur
Shirk and another gentleman whose
name we failed to secure. We board-
ed the car with O. C. White, and he
is just as rapid as anybody we have
joined in a jolly pace for many a day.
With us was Fay Ragland and E. W
Focke and Friend Ragland took a
front pew so that he could put on the
brake. Charlie Standard was in the
game early but concluded he would |
6idestep, but after we had left, he re-
considered and pulled in, overtaking
the crowd near Navina, and Mrs
Standard declares he only touched the
high places making the race.
The roads were fine and the only
mishap on the whole journey was a
blow out by Jack's wheel which de-
layed the bunch, except Bonebrake,
atJout twenty minutes. We rolled up
at the lone at 1:30, had lunch and
then were ready for any emergency.
Just at the opportune time Galur
Crow came upon the scene and he
showed us the way, yes, Crowe is a
prince, he knows the ropes and all the
beautiful islands, oasis, lakes, rivulets,
STATE UNIVERSITY NEWS.
R. A. Conkling, senior, le-ft Friday
for Alaska where he will become a
member of the United Suites geolog-
ical survey. Conkling was appointed
to the position because of efficient
lield work done in the mountains of
Arizona last summer.
The number of inquiries being re-
ceived by the university concerning
the summer session. which begins
June 12, makes it certain that the en-
rollment will be nearly double that of
last year. Several will receive de- j
grees at the close of the summer term, I
having completed the required t ur
years of university wrok.

of the life-giving waters without mon-
