J A. Farquharson in sending t he
data to the Register says these things
in this letter:
Editor Register:
In answer to your request for in-
formation about the peanut club or-
ganized in Logan County, 1 am en-
closing onie of several reports
from Mr. Farquharson saying that
there was going to be a peanut con-
test this year and he wanted me to
be a cluh member. He said that the
tirst National Bank of Gutiirie would
let me have a bushel of peanuts till
was followed by an elopement. Within
six months there was a divorce.
Peggy just didn't like Archer as well
as sihe thought she did and thought
she'd try again.
So on September 1, 1913, she eloped
with Sherburne Hopkins, who also had
made one unsuccessful trip to the al-
tar. Young Hopkins surrounded his
bride with servants, ibought her two

ber and then, I received another let
ter from him telling me how to pre-
pare the soli. There was wheat on the
ground and the chlnce bugs was eat-
ing it up, so papa decided to let me
have it to plant my peanuts, and so
I had the ground plowed from 6 to 8
Inches deep then harrowed. I then
marked it off with a disc cultivator.

on June 1st 1 and my little brother
planted them and they came up in
three days. It rained the night after
we planted them. We kept them nice
and clean. I was very proud of my
peanut patch for it was the first one

Th Oklahoma State Board of Health
will undertake during the early
months of next year a sanitary survey
of an entire township in Oklahoma for
the purpose of ascertaining the exact
conditions under whioh its citizen®
live l'rom day to day from t:ie stand-
point of environments that affect pub-
lic health. A rural township will
be chosen, and in addition to its farm
homes will oontain a village In which
there is neither municipal sewerage
nor a municipal water supply. Each
home and its surroundings will be
carefully inspected, and the data re-
corded. Special attention will be
given to questions of drainage, sources
of water used in the household, dis-
position of refuse, and such differ-
ences in modes of living as may arise
at different seasons of the year. The
systematic disposal of disease-produc-
ing filth will be clearly outlined. As
far as possible the information as-
sembled In the making of this report
will be used in outlining a better plan
of living in communities that do not
have the facilities of caring for pub-
lic health to be found In towns and
cities. The result® should be of much
value in enabling all rural communi-
ties in Oklahoma to guard against
disease by showing what should !be
done in each household for tihe pro-
tection of its members. A township
that could be induced to adopt hygenic
and sanitary precautions would serve
as a model for the other townships of
Oklahoma should become an import-
ant factor in the conservation of hu-
man health In this state.
Health a"d Business.
It is the business policy of the
Bethlehem eteel works to arrest the
progress of disease among its thous-
ands of employees at the earliest
moment. E>ven the slightest physical
injury receives instant attention, for
it has been found that often an injury
no bigger than the bite of a misqulto
proves more dangerous than the am-
putation of a leg. Each employee is
sent to the company's hospital for
treatment, and paid for his loss of
time. This spares suffering, saves
many lives, prevents mutilation of
human bodies, and incidentally earns
large sums of money for the Bethle-
hem steel works. Such a policy

As Scout Leader.
u\ew York, Dec. The national
couucil of the Boy Scouts of America,
througa an authorized committee, held
& special meeting today to consider a
statement issued by Erne®t Thompson
Setou in which he said that he had
rosigned as oiief scout. After the
meeting the council issued this state-
ment:
Mr. Seton did not resign; he was
deliberately dropped by tne national
council of the Boy .Scouts of America
on the question of Americanism. He
in not an American citizen. He not
only resented suggestions and requests
made by many of his friends in the
scout movement that he become an
•American citlzon, but went further and
objected to the boy scout handbook
including a chapter of patriotism. His
term expired in February, 1915. The
nnational council at its annual meet-
i«K did not re-elect him because of the
belief that in a movoment for making
men as citizens of America there
should be no doubt as to the citizen-
ship and patriotism of the leaders of
the movement. Any statement that the
dropping of .Mr. Seton or his alleged
resignation was due to anything else j

siderable amusement was noted in
•tllcial circles over the announcement
in an Ardmore newspaper that the
County Commissioner® of Carter
County had elected a successor to
Kelly Brown as a member of the State
legislature. Mr. Brown is practicing
law in Muskogee. He is not intending
to resign .his place in the Legislature,
however, and will no doubt be present
at the coming special session to sit as
a m mber of the House.
Whether or not the people of Ard-
more will seek to have the office de-
clared vacant because of his removal
is not known The amusement refer-
red to was due to the fact that County
Commissioners have no power to fill
vacancies in the legislature, that
function belonging to the people of
the district upon proclamation by the
Governor. It is believed that in the
d'strlets with known vacancies Gov-
ernor Williams will proclaim elections
about ten days before the legislature

his blue eyes, bright smile and curly
hair, and he was well dre-sed and
danced divinely and he paid the girls
Uae prettiest compliments they .iad
ever heard, and let me tell you, the
girls in that quarter are not hard up
for coaiplimentc.
And it was not only the girls on the
less preteintious streets w.io succumb-
ed to hs charm. His friends took him
to many a fashionable home, where he
was welcomed. And, moreover, wa®
he not a count? In that magic word
there was an even greater spell than
in his well fitting clothes or his merry
blue eye.
And this had been going on since the
early part of the year. The count was
here on business, munitions of war,
whispered some; anyway that was the
excuse given for his inability to accept
several invatations showered upon
him, especially thosee given in the
afternoon. He took his pleasure only
after his affairs were attended to.
It is unknown how many hearts he
broke, but certain it is that not a girl
of his acquaintance would have re-
fused him.
He did not appear at the Thanks-
giving party given by one of the lead-
ing hostesses of the season. Where is
the count?" was heard on every side.
Girls kept their eyes fixed on the door
even while executing the newest step.
At last the hostess, realizing that her
party was slumping, a&kui the man
who had been sponsor for the count
why his friend had not come. Where-
upon the young man turned to the as-
sembled company and made a little
speech, as follows:
"I am sorry to say the count i® de-
tained by business and will be unable
to join your party, but if you care to
put on yohr wraps and accompany me,
we will surprise him."
Delighted at the idea the two score
of young folk hastily donned their
cloaks and entered the motor cars
they found waiting. After a rather
long drive uptown the procession stop-
ped in front of a small shoemaker's
shop.
"There ihe is, good people, you can
see him through the window."
The girls peered and peered. Where
was he? There was no count in there.
Only a man with an apron, with his
shirt sleeves rolled up above the el-
bow, bending over a shoe he was
mending busily.
"Don't you recognize him?" asked
their leader, with a queer smile.
"That's your count. My good friend.
John Williams, shoemaker and cob-
bler. He is so busy repairing shoes
for the holidays that he couldn't find
time to come to your party."
"What?" they shrieked in chorus, I
"That common man the count?"
"Nay, he is no common man. He is I
a good workman and worthy of his i
hire; none of you can deny that he is '
a gentleman. Some of us wanted to j
teach you a lesson—to show you how
foolish you are to run after a man |
merely because he has a title, while I
he may be the greatest scoundrel. Let
me tell you that man in there Is worth
a dozen foreigners, and he is no for- I
tune hunter, either. He has a nice bit )
of money invested."
The girls went home shamefacedly,
and the outcome is that several be-
trothals are about to be announced j
and the future husbands are none of I
them titled.
