'MVP'
Among the thousands entering the
portals of higher education for the
first time was Harold Lamb a lowly
Freshman with Senior ambitions!
He prepared for dollege by imitating
in manner and clothes heroes of tic
Lion and movies and to make a
plurge with 'spending money he sold
washing machines during summer va-
cations! All set was Harold ti) dazzle Tate
University with his glory and cap-
ture the throne as the varsity's most
popular student Poor Harold !A
simple soul asking only admiration
—friendsrip--affection! And getting
laughs an Jeers!
When 'he Tate limited choo-chooed
into the tiepot of th t °liege town
Harold had already met Peggy who
sat next to him in LI (Brier and was
so puzzled over "No 19 vertical—
Name for one you love" that he of-
fored simirestions And when you
say "Sweetheart" and she comes
lback with "Darling" and then you
suggest "Dearest' and she tries
"Precious"--well you're acquainted
It didn't take more than one glance
for an upper class bully the peril of
the Fresmen to spot Harold as a
"razzberry" He pointed out the
Dean's private car as one assigned
to take Harold to the college Har-
old innocently enters it and was tak-
er to the stage entrance of the school
auditorium where he was thrust onto
the stage and told to make a speech
or he'll be the most unpopular maul
lat college A kitten crawling aroundl
underneath his sweater somewhat
cramped his oratorical style hut he
got over to the assembled students
that he was just a regular fellow and
they should step right up and call
him "Speedy" They did—and be-
fore he knew it a large slice of wash
ing machine profits had gone into
ice cream cones for the entire school
'T was thus that Harold Lamb came
to Tate! He roomed in a boarding
hourc run by the mother of pretty
Peggy who when she wasn't keep-
ing Harold sewed onto his buttons
was cheek girl at the Hotel Tate
Slic was the only girl in town who
saw thetrue heart beneath the boob
cxter or of the Limb who was th
college goat and she lov 1 him for
whit she knew he coil b- if he'd
only stop being an imit itirm
'rhe Jokers told Haro'd he could
never hope to be as popilar as Chet
Trask one of Harold's models for
popularity until he made the foot-
ball team so he turned up on the
practice field rigged out like 4 sport
ad and was used as a substitute—
for the dummy! Because hetad a
grin left in him at the finish of tackle
'practice he was taken on as a water
boy as a reward for his fine spirit
but kidded into believing that he was
a real sub Harold was jubilant and
went to tell Peggy who hadn't the
tell him that it was just
one more trick played on a poor
boob!
At the Fall Frolic of which he was
host Harold was the last to arrive
because the tailor seized with a diz-
zy spell had been unable to finish
his Tuxedo Basting it together he
accompanied Harold to the dance
where the poor Freshman ripped
fasted than the tailor sewed De--mite
mishap it was a wonderful
cvening --- until he saw the cad fore-
lng 111 aftat!ons upon Peggy Rip-
ping mad he ripped off his coat and

Karnak Overcomes Her
Awful Stomach And
Kidney Suffering And
She Is Now Like A New
Person
Witu demonstration after demon-
stration of the remarkable health-
building powers of Karnak in all
parts of Oklahoma it becomes more
apparent every day that this new
medicine which is on sale here is
totally different and far better than
anything heretofore achieved for
relieving indigestion and bringing
the system up to that strong vig-
orous standard of health Mrs J

sent the cad sprawling with a mighty
blow on the jaw And the cad came
back with a knockout blow at Har-
old'a tender pride—"Why you're only
the college ttraob—we've just been
kidding you into thinking you're a
regular fellow"
A few pruel words said In anger—
and a boy's joy turned bitter! He
crumpled at the feet of Peggy who
whispered to him "You haven't been
true to yourself When you stop pre-
tending you'll make them like you
for what you are not for what you
think they want you to be Be your-
self Harold!"
He knew she was right—he had
been only a silly imitation but he'd
show them he was genuine—Oh If
he could only get into the game
against Union State!
On that Way destined to be so
eventful In the history of Tate and
Harold he watched one man after
the other of his team carried out
and a sub sent in Then he sat
alone on the bench—another man
was carried Out—it was his turn!
But the coach called him back
"You can't play Speedy! You're
only the water boy—we've Just been
kidding you!"
But Harold hadn't been kidding
He'd worked and fought and he
wouldn't let them rob him of his
chance The coach because it was
use Speedy a forlorn hope or forfeit
the game—the most important of the
year—sent him in
--And Harold's play was so dumb
that it was good In the final min-
ute of the game he—a fool or luck—
carried the ball over the goal and
!won the game
I Did they love their speedy? Was
Ihe a regular fellow? Was he a horn?
-- But to Harold the ovation was
nothing when compared with the "I
love you" Peggy had hastily scribbled
on the corner of a magazine page and
slipped into his hand as he was car-
ried by shoulder high!

General '
In our previous articles on the rural
telephone we made an attempt to coy-
er the proper installation and mainten-
ance of each unit or part separately
In this article we will attempt to
take up one or two ideas which were
unmated in the other articles and
also to cover the subject generally le
as short a space as possible
The satisfactory rural line should
not exceed ten miles in length and
should not have more tharraten sta'
tions
It will be wise in making repairs on
any part of the telephone system to
keep the idea in mind that the repair
should be more permanent than the
defective part was before For in-
stancp if you are closing a loosecon-
nection in the line make that connec-
tion s(i that you will not have the same
trouble with it at a future time If a
pole has settled into a slanting posi-
tion allowing slack to bother you do
not prop the pole up but dig oat
around the pole and retamp it
Since you can have repair) reads
for you and since you may draw from
he knowledge of practical men on
the Instruction and maintenance of
your lines there is no reason why
great improvements should not be
made in rural telephone service Why
not set aside It little time now and
then and devote it to putting your
part of the system in such shape that
You will got offootive use of the greet-
est convenienee inventive genius hat
ever given to you?
