editor who claims other innovations
in planning of the book. To "The
Spirit of Soonerland" the volume is
inscribed.
Every effort is to be made to have
the book off the press two weeks be-
fore the close of school, according to
Ferguson. In dividing the Sooner an
effort was made to bring the univer-

so the eight major industries of Okla

pages. There are pages devoted to
oil, agriculture, mining, commerce,

In the last five books brown spia

experimented until he found a bluish
green tone for this year. The book
will contain a general idex of all stu-

turned undaunted to th® mammoth
task of rehabilitation through which
it is planned every survivor of Inst
Wednesday's catastrophe will be re

existed before the territory was laid in
. ruins.
A’.l injured have received medical
attention and all homeless have been
provided with temporary shelter, it
was announced, as plans got under
way for a virtual rebuilding of the
stricken areas. A colossal task faced
the agencies engaged in reconstruc-
tion work as arrangements were made ,
for complete surveys of the storm -
territory.
Many Need Occupation
It was anticipated that four months
or more would be required to dear
hundreds of acres of ruins, restore
thousands of shattered homes, rebui id '
factories and establish new systems
of sanitation. Providing destitute fam-
ilies with means of making a living
was an immediate need receiving at-
tention.
Committees from several southern
Illinois counties will meet this week
as a joint body which will direct all
permanent relief work after surveys
have been made of the needs of the
district.
Water Supply Tested
A. F. Dappert, assistant Illinois
sanitary engineer, arrived at Mur-
physboro with his staff to take charge
of sanitary work. He said that the
water supply was not up to standard,
but that the department had the sit-
uation under control there as well as
in other towns. Medical units con-
stantly were inspecting all parts of
the territory to prevent any outbreak
of disease.
Danger of an epidemic in Indiana
was said to be remote with tha ar-
rival of additional medical suppltes,
including anti-tetanus serum and the
advent of state sanitary officers. All
water in the Indiana area also ig be
