IMPROVING MORALS IN CHINA
Influsnee of Christian Teschlngs
Shown lit tha Changed Condi
tlona Found Thara.
"The public conscience Is now be-
ing awakened upon thin aspect of pub
'He morality. I«st week I was ln-
vtted to take part iu a meeting or-
ganized by men wbo are not directly
connected with any Christian church,
fcvt who are sincerely desirous of as-
elating In the reformation of their
countrymen. Their purpooe was to
■tart an antlgambllng league, and
with this In mind they called a public
Moating, which waa attended by some
hundreds of Chinese scholars and
has In sea men. and resolutions were
pawed In approved public meeting
style, approving of a campaign agalnat
the gambling vice. Members of the
Chinese Young Man's Christian asso-
ciation were asked to aaalat In the
—ting, and to demonstrate by the
of gamea the possibility of
it ion without vloe. Suitable ad-
ire given by prominent Chl-
aeee, and the chief organiser of the
movement la on« of the government
education Inspectors for the provinces
of Klangsu and Klangai. A Chinese
Roman Catholic teacher gave a violin
aolo, a Chinese secretary of the Young
Mens' Christian association rendered
two cornet solos, and a Protestant
Missionary sang to the gathering. The
whole meeting waa conducted In so
orderly and orthodox a fashion that It
was scarcely possible to realise bow
tremendous a reformation In the
whole Chinese outlook upon public
life this meeting revealed. Twenty
years, even ten years, ago such a
meeting would not have been within
•he realm of possibility. Today we
have a class of public moralists arising
who bave undoubtedly learned from
Christianity In their midst the ideals
which they are desirous of Impresxing
.upon their countrymen."
(STATE FAIR TIME APPRMdS)
It is time for every loyal Oklahoman

Tor truly this inatltution arotAes the
Interest, or ahould, of every man,
'woman and child who has sufficient
Interest in the world about him to
learn more of the resources of his
adopted state, and to take home with
him enough helpful, new ideas to last
until another state fair.
For many people the great fair Is
aa annual home coming, a place to
see old friends and to meet new ones,
for all it Is the great rallying place
for instruction and amuaement. Hang-
ing through the many and varied ex-
hibits of all departments there Is
abundant opportunity for the visitor
to get a view of what 1s being accom-
plished In his own and other states.
Improvements.
Never before was the management

Favorable Conditions. •
Commenting upon the most general
divisions of the state fair, that la, tha
agricultural. Industrial and livestock
divisions, it may be said that never
were crop conditions so favorable to
the best display of agricultural pro*-
ucta In the history or the fair. There
will be more and better county coV-
lectlve exhibits than ever before. The
management Is expecting the largest
and best fruit exhibit of sny previous
year.
With the opening of the great pack-
ing Industries of the state, the 11 ve-
atock department promlaea to show
the best quality and the greatest quan-
tity of cattle, bogs and sheep of any

How She Conciliated Them.
Pllmer—How did It happen that
these five men who were bo angry
with the woman in the nickelodeon
for not taking off her hat became so
friendly with her afterward?
Screeners—It was raining like fury
when the show was over and f>lu< in-
vited tbeui to take shelter with her

Their Object.
Banks—The women of niy town
have formed a secret society.
Rivera—A secret society? Surely,
that's a misnomer; women don't know
how to keep secrets.
Banks—But they know how to tell
tliem, and that's why they formed
the society.
The satirist can talk about the "av

every m n considers himself above

With the advent of two $3,000,000 pack-
ing plants In Okluhoma City, the live-
stock departments of the fair are ex-
pected this year to start on a career
of unprecedented growth, reflecting
credit upon the state and city us u
coming livestock center of tbe south-
west.
Other new buildings to be complete
by the opehing of the fair are: Dairy
building. Mineral Resource building.
Woman's and Children's building and
Cement Industries building. To this
might be added mention of the 100 feet
extension to the Agricultural building.

lets has been installed, made possible
by the addition of city water at tho

eral deep wells for its water supply

veniences are, forty telephones In tho

proved.

packers, will be on exhibition for tho
second time. Patterson's Shows and
ten other special attractions are billed.
SHE RECOGNIZED THE VOICE
And From Remark Made. Ala* Know
tho Party Waa Not En-
gaged In Prayer.
Confidential friends of Louis B
Shields are telling this story about
that eminent Republican: A state
convention at Columbus had Just ad-
journed and the Cuyahoga county
delegates were nil back home whoa
somebody suggested a friendly game
Of poker. The game was going along
right merrily at three a. m.
At that hour an officious attendant
•ailed up Mr. Shields' residence, which
happened to be almost next door.
•This la long distance," said the
servant with no warrant of authority
whatover. "Wo are all here In Co-
lumbus and can't get home until morn
tag"
"That's all right." came back the
reply, "but If that voice I hear In the
apartment house next door saying
'that's good' Isn't Mr. Shields' then I
can't recognise a voice when I hear it
at night."
And that Is the end of the story, for
the voloe saying "that's good" was
Indeed thst of Mr. Shields, and It was
so near home, so the narrator relates,
that there was no use in offering a
denial.- Cleveland Leader.

vety softness and whiteness much de-
sired by women Cuticura Soap, assist-

that Americans lose HO,000,000 year-

"of the company of privates that a
