Chinese Societies
Chinese tongs are organized N
an element of secrecy of groups of
Chinese for mutual protection and as-
sistance Basically they are of a com-
mercial character the members being
engaged in business and they are thus
- rival trade associations This rivalry
'occasionally breaks out into open war-
tare when aggressions by one tong
against another consisting of unfair
commercial practices boycotts etc
gives the rival tong cause for offense
The tongs in the United States are
bratIches of wider organizations hay-
ivr their main headquarters in Shang
hni and Peking China and branches
— - exist In other nations besides the
United States -

Swing Plays Port in
Hindu Religious Rites
One often finds in the near vielnity
of a Hindu temple says a writer in an
Indian paper two high stone pillars
sometimes 30 feet high with -a stone
crosspiece froth— which bang Iron
chains These swings play an impor-
tant part In the various festivals of the
year especially for the yoting people
The very act of swinging on this sa-
cred structure is pleasing to the deity
of the temple and when it is pagsible
to combine both pleasure and worship
then It is not unnatural this form of
exercise should be greatly appreciated
In certain seasons especially the har-
vest season the swing is in great de
a ad religious ceremonies are per-
formed by the priests of the temple
On the top bar of the swing it is not
unusual to find a number of earthen-
ware chattels which are thee home of
the sacred pigeons connected with the
temple
These swings are -often built in thee
middle of the street and they not in-
frequently constitute a real obstacle
to traffic But the authorities would
certainly have great difficulty in per-
suading the temple people to agree to
the removal of them

His Way Out of Dilemma
The commanding Aker looked
down the charge sheet to see what
type of case be bad to deal with that
morning
Suddenly he started
"Mutiny I" he Amuttered "Private
King charged with mutiny r 4 The
aloud: "Where Is the corporal who
made 0317 itrrest?" -
"Here- sir" answered a corporal
stepping forward - !
"Do you charge Private King with
mutiny?" was the stern inquiry
"I do sir" was the reply
"On what grounds?"
The corpoial hesitated for a mo
meat Then:
"Well sir" be said confidentiaN
"It was really insubordination but I
didn't know how to spell that so I
put 'mutiny"
Heat Kills Germs
Radiant (or visible) heat NI em-
phasized by Prof Leonard Et at a
recent meeting of the London Zoologi-
cal society—as 'most useful in helping
caged animals to fight against infec-
tion" from tuberculosis Hot-water
pipes he pointed out though att eco-
nomical way of raising temperature in
the animal houses do not provide all
the benefits of radiant heat such as we
know best in the form of sunlight and -
in another form in the domestic coal
lire In fact central heating—excel-
lent In iti place—is not healthy heat-
ing as the prevalence of tuberculosis
in steam-heating countries such as
Sweden Russia and the United States
goes far to prove '
Passed Over Bonanza
Although any49er who made
good in the gold rush to California in
1849 had no bone to pick with his
fate it Is a comment that many of
them and their brothers who were not
so successful walked Tight over a 'rich
bonanza in the southern part of Mex-
ico along the Isthmus' of Panama
over which many of them trekked
Along the river of the Winding Snake
many '49ers walked on their way to
the Pacific coast little knowing that
later prospectors -would And a rich
field of oil beneath their feet
Honor in Initallni onto
The oMcials of a certain church were
anxious to obtain a "D D" for their
pastor and a letter Wall ient to a cer-
tain "diploma mill" asking for terms
As the price mentioned for the honor
was twice as great as the &lurch wag
prepared to pay' another letter was
forwarded to the authorities stating
that they would purchase one "D" now
and the other when they had sufficient
funds for the purpose

PEOPLE YOU KNOW
Mrs Otis Dygert spent the day
Wednesday at the Arch Clothier
home
Emile Archer reports that the
Lake City Kansas Band is mak
ing good progress He invites the
people of Freedom to visit Lake
City soon and hear a real band
It is composed of twenty pieces
with'MrsRoma Reily hired as
Instructor
FREEDOM
I Most Oklahoma cities compel
I motorists to bring their cars to
a full stop before crossing any
heavy-traffic street -
This law is universally approv
ed It savrs time and averts
accidents It is wise and fair
Yet heavy motor vehicle trâffic
is far less dangerous to you than
a railroad train Speed is the
very esgence Of railroad service
A traincannot stop quickly Nor
can it turn out to avoid hitting
you
Six states havé-already passed
laws making stop streetsoout of
railroad crossings The time
may come when the state of
Oklahoma will compel you by
law to thus protect yourself
But why wait Tor law when
you have common sense? Deter-
mine today that from this time
on you will always bring your
car toa full stop before crossing
a railroad track anywhere—
any time Everybody will app-
rove your good judgment Many
will follow your example And
you will be relieved forever from
the possibility'of this the most
serious of common accidents
A missing cylinder you say?
Yes and that missing cylinder is
the man or woman who shows
A(03 intrest in home town business
or in the welfare of the commun-
ity Some business men travel
around so much that when they
do eat at home they look for a
menu '
But sometimes a good look-
ing town like many deautiful
cars will roll along evenly while
he roads are level but upon
reaching a hill of business adver-
sity will slow up knock and
erk and finally come to a
dead stop before reaching the
crest
kr
Mrs A BBabcock expects to
be able to return home today
from Alva where she has been
under the care of Dr Simon for
several weeks
