game with Rocky last Friday
evening. Sentinel beat them 27

will be as successful in the
games they play with others.

A Call lor Socialist Meeting
at Dill City, on Saturday,
December 20.
The political campaign of 1914
is approaching; the county So-
cialist organization is not as
compact as it should be. and
we can not expect individual ef-
fort, alone, to bring success. To
draw the near Socialist and sym-
pathizer toward us we need a
live, active,fighting bunch ready
for the fray. We should place a
lecturer-organizer in the field at
once, and keep him there until a
thorough organization is per-
fected.
Therefore, as county chairman,
I hereby call a county Socialist
convention to convene in Dill
City, at 2 o'clock on the after-
noon of Saturday, December 20,
1913, to devise ways and means
for systematizing the work in the
county and for the consideration
of other important party meas-
ures.
At that time and place we hope
to meet you, comrades.
W. W. Hornbeck, Chm.
My Dreams.
George Allan England.
I yearn for a future which
shall see no poverty, no crime,
no vifce, no unpaid labor nor any
children's blood coined into divi-
dends. When there shall no long-
er be any wars or rumors of
wars; when famine and pesti-
lence shall be forgotten. When
no longer one class shall enslave
another to its tasks. When ev-
ery man who will may labor free-
ly, gladly' whether with hand or
brain, and receive the product of
his toil undiminished by any
theft or purloining whatsoever.
When governmental corruption
shall become a thing of the ob-
livious past. When crowns, ti-
tles, swords, rifles and dread-
naughts shall be known only by
history or the research of the
antiquarian. When the earth
and the fullness thereof shall
belong to the whole people; and
its soil need be no longer fertil-
ized with human blood, its crops
brought forth watered by human
tears.
Such are my dreams—a few of
them.
Utopian, you say?
No, not Utopian. For Social-
ism, I believe, opens the way to-
ward their tffctual realization.

Do you realize that the intelligent compounding of
your doctor's prescriptions is often a matter of
life or death to you. The STATE OF OKLAHO-
MA DOES!
It provides that every man engaged in this science
must either be examined and registered or PRAC-
TICE ILLEGALLY. ,
The competent pharmacist is not only your druer
retailer, but also an ever-watchful safeguard. He
checks and brings to the notice of the doctor any
errors he may make.
When you know that as common an article as cas-
tor oil, if improperly prepared, is a deadly poison,
can you afford to trust other than a competent,
registered pharmacist to fill your prescriptions?
G. L. SCOTT, of the Barton Drug Company,
js not only thoroughly competent, but has had twenty years'
experience and is registered by the State Board of Pharmacy.
