fut her about the niat ter The com-
missioners will ak XVoods i-owvty to
refund 4lie tax money so paid
The legislature passed a bid last week
postponing the date when taxsba
come deiiquet until J one 1 so ever-
yone can rest easy with the knowl-
edge that they can pay their tax with
no penalities added
Cirpenters have been at work fixing
up rooms in the Ii iods!ey Huil lirii

treasurer and as soon as tin’ tax re-
ceipts come from the printing liou-e

Home Is Made Of Love And Cash
Into the manufacture ef a home go
two cheif Ingredients: love and cash
Tlie first Is absolutely essential of
the second at least a little is no less
necessary
Hut the words “a little" liavea very
elastic interpretation borne women
could create a home Horn to cracker-
boxes and a hammock others with
unlimited means financially fail
Tlie problem Is largely an individual
one'
Generally speaking an average of
one hundred dollars a room will buy
durable attractive furnishings of
permanent value says Hie New Idea

If less money is available don’t give
up the venture iri despair Study tiie

Pottery Is Easily Made
When one thinks of the numerous
possibilities for adding deauliful
decorative pieces of pottery to tlie
home in tlie way of lamp-bowels
candlesticks dishes for (lowers or
fruit and ail kindu of decorative
jardinieres it seems well wortli while
to learn how to make these at' home
Now the plasta composite clay or
plasteriue can lie obtained already
Igcprred nquiring only the addition
of wdter the maxing of pottery comes
within the scope of tiie most unen-
lightened worker Those composi-
tions can be obtained in cr- am color
terra-cotta or io olive-green says
the May Delineator A few simple
pollcis’ tools — a board roliing-pin
and water — are the only requisites
Tbe material is moistened with water
and is k neaded on a board to give it
pla-licity It is tlien rolled with a
riiiiing-pi'i
1 older to make a email bowl take
a lump of clay and work tlie kuuckiis
into it until it assumes the from of a
bird's nest This will save a good
deal of shop tug when burlding up the
sides Do not alien fit to add loo
large a piece at first or it w ill breaa
oil especially If the sides are high
XX'ork tlie sma'Iluts of clay very care-
fully into the sides
When the pottery made from plasta
is perfectly dry it is sent to a kiln to
fire If tlie green white or terra-cotta
are not just l lie colors desired tlie
ve-sels ran bo colored with oidinary
tu be oil colors moisted with 'turpen-
tine aod a wax finish given to them
afterwards This Is really -a very prue-
tic ii and easy method of getting wliat

The Banks Want Help
The bankers of Oklahoma have
become disgusted witlr the legisla-
ture and have appealed to thepeo-
pie for aid iti gettiug needed legis-
lation to suppress the crime of
bank robbing It is claimed that
tbe legislature has been urged for
weeks to pass protective measures
that the law protecting tbe people
against the banks and making the
banks pay the bills was passed in
apparently unseemly baste The
banks are evidently wearying of
paying the various assessments for
burglar insurance and for the nu-
merous other kinds of insurance
they must carry in order to proper-
ly protect their customers The
following is their appeal
“We desire the aid of the press
of the state in the matter of call-
ing attention of our lawmakers to
the fact that there is a bank burg-
lary in Oklahoma ou au average '
of about twice a week and that
the state has fully protected the
people against the banks that the
banks as a matter of justice should
have some protection (that is at
least’against criminals) and strict-
er laws should be passed
“We have some of us asked for
a death penalty and I have letters
from' prominent members cf tbe
legislature showing little or no
interest whatever in the matter
and stating that if a death penalty
was passed it would not stop bank
burglary and train robbing This
statement I admit may be true
butI know of few laws Miat do ab-
solutely prevent crime but the se-
verer the peualty the less the
less the crime as a rule
“If we had less bank and train
robbery our burglary insurance
and express rates oa money and
valuables would be greatly lessen- '
ed thereby saving us that addi-
tional expense We especially de-
sire protection from the criminal
who is making his home in Okla-
homa and robbing banks with a
regularity that U startling Banks
as a rule pay a heavy tax and I
know of no law that has been pass-
ed for our especial benefit”
“The record of bank burglaries
in Oklah6ma during the past few
weeks has attracted attention ev-
erywhere Few- convictions have -occurred
so far Peualtses are no
more severe than a few years iu
the penitentiary after which the--crimitial
may be released and con-
tlnue his avocation '
Only recently au express mes-
senger was killed in coM blood
while nrotecting tAonev being sent
out of the slate by Oklahoma
banks N
“Noted bank robbers are going x
over the countty boldly defying'
ofh-iers and bank burglaries con-
tinue with the deference that comes
from knowledge of short sentences
arid light punishment The bank-
ers ot the state feel that their
cause is a just one” ’
