His pretty Arkansas sweetheart to
whom he is shortly to be married
keeping a love vigil at his bedside
Audry Lane the 21 year old station
agent at Pryor who was dangerously
shot by a bandit at an early hour
Saturday morning lies in the Baptist
hospital in this city battling for life
Young Lane was brought to Mus-
kogee at 9:30 o’clock last night on
a Katy train and placed in the hos-
pital where his youth and the en-
couragement of his fiance’s presence
may pull him through With him
came his mother Mrs Joseph Lane
and his sweetheart Miss Selma Por-
ter both of Fort Smith Ark the
young agent’s home
Lane was shot through the upper
left breast the ball penetrating down
ward under the shoulder As to
whether it penetrated his lung de-
pends largely his chance of recovery
Dr A L Stocks who is attending
him stated last night that his pros-
pects for life are good The fear is
of complications that may set in
easily at the hospital at midnight He
talked to Muskogee friends who call-
ed on him and gave additional de-
tails of the bandit's murderous assault
COUNTY BANKS MAY ORGANIZE
The bankers of Nowata and No-
wata county are talking of organiz-
ing the Nowata County Bankers’ as-
sociation The need of such an or-
ganization has been felt by all of
the banks and this county is one of
the few in the state in which the bank-
ers have not taken such action Such
a movement will not only be of bene-
fit to the bankers but to the entire
county inasmuch as it helps to cem-
ent the interests of every part of the
county It is probable that a meet-
ing will be called shortly to perfect
the organization

SAFE CONDUCT
By United Press -Springfield
111 Nov 27—' When
the legislature of Hlinois convenes
next January n amendment will be
offered to the child-labor law to pro-
hibit the employment of children un-
der 16 year except during Vacation
season recommended by Oscar P
Nelson of Chicago chief state fao-
tory Inspector '
“The conservation of the child Is
the foundation upon which any kind
of preparedness must rest” Nelson
said today He declared that tha
present condition of highly special-
ised industry has removed any chance
of child’s surviving long term em-
ployment without bad effects
“The boy bandit problem can bo
traced to th rebellion of youth
against blind alley employment” he
said “Tha state must face the ait- -uatlon
now and the most practical
way to meet it is to prohibit the em-
ployment of all children under 16
yean except during school vacation"
At present children in Illinqis be-
tween 14 and 16 are allowed to work
the year around under certain limita-
tions as to houn of labor They must
have a certificate to show that condi-
tions have been complied with
