Two Kinds of Citizens
Patriotism manifests in many
and various ways Some people
are willing to die for their
country and a few are willing to
live for their country— which is
much harder Some are eager
to show their patriotism by hold-
ing a job at a fat salary and some
are willing to vote the party
ticket straight— just because it is
the party ticket Patriotism
says Walter Williams is often
another name for pride
The small ways in which
i!
Refrigerators
Ice Boxes
Water Coolers
Ice Cream Freezers
a Temple Hardware Co a
patriotism may be shown seldom
attracts attention A soldier at-
tacks the enemy of his country
and we call the soldier a patriot
But it is patriotic also to cut
down the weeds on your back lot
The soldier gives his life in a day
but the scientist who gives his
life ' in a generation is also
patriotic
Two kinds of citizens are in
every town patriots and traitors
There is no middle ground of
neutrality Every man is in one
or the other camp The patriot
does his full duty to the com-
munity votes expresses his
opinion takes part in meetings
for civic good bears cheerfully
his portion of the community’s
work The traitor lets the other
fellow do the work and reaps
benefit by the other fellow’s
patriotism Treason consists of
levying war against the republic
—so says the foundation law —
or giving aid or comfort to her
enemies He gives aid and com-
fort to the public enemies who
does not assist in making better
the community in which he
dwells He is himself a public
enemy
Building Nearing Completion
Within the coming week the
new High school building will be
completed and ready for the in-
spection of the school board The
outward appearance of the
building is very handsome and
only lacks one little thing which
in our estimation would add con-
siderable and that is the cupola
As it is there is no place for a
bell one thing that is absolutely
necessary The interior as well
as the exterior is finished up with
good material and first-class
workmanship Mr Whitener de-
serves great credit for this mag-
nificent building also his fore-
man Mr J C Robins who had
complete charge of the woodwork
on the interior of the building
After its acceptance by the
board Mr Whitener expects to
go to Chatanooga where he has
the contract for about the same
kind of a building Mr Robins
will remain with us and follow
his line of business as con-

THREE BIG DAYS
AT B & 0 STORE
Ft Sill Artillery Band and
Prominent Speakers will
be Present
Next week wjll be a gala week
in our city such as never before
been witnessed in this section
The B & O Cash Store which is
known throughout the entire
southwest is responsible for the
many attractions that will appear
in our city on June 21st 22d and
23d For this occasion they have
gone to considerable expense in-
asmuch as they have contracted
for the Ft Sill Artillery Band
one of the best bands if not the
best in the state which alone
will draw a large crowd In ad-
dition to this several prominent
speakers of both political parties
have been invited to address the
people upon the issues of the
present campaign and it is ex-
pected that several candidates
for governor will be present"
They are now making prepara
tions for the comfort of the many
visitors and every feature in the
entertainment given by that
store will be free to everybody
The B & 0 Cash Store was
organized in our city about two
years ago at which time the pro-
prietors on account of limited
means started out with a very
small stock but through their
strenuous effort and their cash
system being able to undersell
those who sell on time they have
worked up a business that not
only reaches miles out into the'
surrounding country but covers
the entire southwestern part of
the state as well as northern
Texas They are great believers
in advertising which is one of
the secrets of success
In addition to the entertain-
ment by this concern theglidden
tour is scheduled to be through
our city on the 22d at just what
hour however is a hard matter to
predict but they are expected to
be in the city of Lawton on that
evening from Dallas Texas In
this tour there are supposed to
be about 200 automobiles another
sight that you can hardly afford
to miss According to the most
authentic reports they will be
through here about 4 o’clock in
the afternoon
Ogletree Announces

who is connected with the firm
of Ogletree Stone & Co after
an earnest request by his friends
has decided to make the race for
Justice of the Peace of Cache

north of the city where he has
many friends who especially are
urging him in this race If nom-
inated and elected Mr Ogletree

Give the Boy a Chance
Don't laugh at the boy who
magnifies his place You may
see him coming from the post-
office with a big bundle of his
employer’s letters which he dis-
plays with as' much pride as
though they were his own He
feels important and looks it but
he is proud of his place He is
attending to business He likes
to have the world know that he is
at work for a busy concern The
boy who says “we” identifies
himself with the concern its
interests are his He sticks up
for its credit and reputation He
takes pleasure in his work and
hopes to say we in earnest The
boy will reap what he sows if he
keeps his grit and sticks to his
job You may take off your hat
to him as one of the future solid
men of the town Let his em-
ployer do the right thing by him
dh’eck him kindly if he shows
Tfgns of being too big for his
place counsel him as to his
habits and associates and oc-
casionly show him a pleasant
prospect of advancement A
little pride does an honest boy a
heap of good Good luck to the
boy who says “we”
