Rebellion against the Labor crisis showed itself last week
when a number of laboring men of Sand Springs presented a
petition demanding that contractors on the city paving hire
local labor
Investigation by the city commissioner however brought out
the fact that the contractors were living up to their contracts
however the point is this All construction work in the city
should be given to firms suck as those that will give employ-
ment to local labor and do as much as possible to alleviate the
situation existing of men with homes and families here paying
rent and taxes perhaps trading in town who due to the unem-
ployment are in a bad way These men in better times have
stayed in Sand Springs and spent their money here Now that
they are the-victims of circumstances they are due every con-
sideration by Sand Springs people
If you have any work whatever to do if you are building
if you need men do not fail to give the Sand Springs men the
first consideration Many are needy who are willing to work
They are deserving
In face of the so called business depression one cannot help
but notice the amount of construction work going on in Sand
Springs at the present time The new bridge the north road
the new post office and the remodeling of two buildings upon
main street dominate activities Maybe Sand Springs is not in
such a poor condition after all

SEPTEMBER
By George Arnold
Sweet is the voice that calls
And soft the breezes blow
From babbling waterfalls
In meadows where the downy seeds
are flying
And eddying come and go
In faded gardens where the rose Is
dying
Among the stubble corn
The blithe quail pipes at morn
The merry partridge drums in hid-
den places
And glittering insects gleam
Above the reedy stream
Where busy spiders spin their
filmy laces
At eve cool alladawa fall

BORROW THIS WEEK?
Across the garden wall
And on the clustered grapes to
purple turning
And pearly vapors lie
Along the eastern sky
Where the broad harvest-moon is
redly burning
A h soon on field and hill
The winds shall whistle chill
And patriarch swallows call their
flocks together
To fly from frost and snow
And seek for lands where blom
Ah soon on field and hill
The winds shall whistle chill
And patriarch swallows call their
flocks together
To fly from frost and snow
And seek for lands where blow
The fairer blossoms of a balmier
weather
The pollen-dusted bees
Search for the honey-lees
That linger in the last flowers of
September
While plaintive mourning doves
Coo sadly to their loves
Of the dead summer they so well
remember
Yet though a sense Of grief
Comes with the falling leaf
And memory makes the sum-
mer doubly pleasant
In all my autumn dreams
A future summer gleams
Passing the fairest glories of the
present

WE WISH THEY WOW) STOP
IT TOO
I read in th morning paper the
otiiir morning about a man in
Tulsa rho backed out of his drive
and ran over and killed a email
girl who was parked in the drive
The next day I got into my ear
and backed out of the drive I
looked back when I reached the
street and It was only my brakes
that saved me from running over
two children who were playing in
the street
I see in your editorials where
you have 'nadir some mention ot
this thi“ and wish to add my
hearty approbation to what you
have said Some childr is going to
get killed if the mothers don't
keep them out of the street&

"HOLLER" FOR IBUSINESS
Dear Editor:
) After reading your editorial the
other day I took stock of the eon°
ditio38 in Sand Springs and find
WHEN'S THE TIME TO QUIT
I rode downtown in a taxicab
and looked at the picture of the
driver on the license card which
Is issued by the police
Where had I seen a face like
that?
Suddenly I knew An acquaint
twee of mine looks enough like
that taxi driver to be his twin
If the whole truth be blurted
out I doubt if there is a very wide
difference in intelligence between
that taxi driver and my acquaint-
ance Neither has much education
Neither is well read Neither can
be accused of profound thought
How is it then that one is on
the front seat of a cab and the
other rides in the back seat of
a limousine?
Luck? Undoubtedly there is a
lot of luck in every successful
career But I think my acquaint
ance has at least one quality
which the taxi driver lacks He
stuck to his game through some
pretty lean tough years when
there was every reason to be dis-
couraged and quit
The dividing line between suc-
cess and failure is lust a hair-line
In thousands of eases One single
decision may make all the dif-
ference A young man has just been pro-
moted into the vice-presidency of
rt corporation and riven a stock
participation that will make him
many times a millionaire
He told me that he started in a

HAVING SEE NTHE FAIR WE
ARE EXPECTING Tills
Hear Editor:
Hurrah for the Chamber of
t!onitneree bast week someone
wrote a letter to your column com-
plimenting the Chamber of Corn
merec and then this week we had
the Comtnunity fair which to my
mind WaN a great alleretat
The Chandler of Commerce Is
responsible for the wonderful fair
(('mitinued on page 7)
branch office of the company as
an aecountant Before long he had
made himself master of one cer-
tain phase of the company's af-
fairs He looked around him and
above him and was discouraged
Everywhere his way seemed to be
blocked by men who had been
there longer but were young
enough so that they would be ac-
tive for many years
One night he definitely decided
to look for something else The
next day an officer of the com-
pany visited his branch and a
violent discussion ensued The of-
ficer upheld one side of the ques-
tion my young friend the other
And my young friend knew his
facts he was right
The argument ended by the of-
ficer asking him to come down to
New York "for a few weeks" He
has been there ever since
11 he had resigned the preced-
ing evening my young friend
would have missed his one great
chance
Hanging over the door of the
laboratory of a great automobile
one ever would have crossed the
ocean if he eould have got off in
the storm "
I am not writing this piece to
try to make any man contented
with a poor Job There are plenty
of instances where men have
made their everlasting fortunes by
making a fresh start
But more often I think the
battle is won lust by sitting tight

HOW TO GET RICH
Two colored gentlemen 'lose
and klortill ran a store Mose be-
came very enthused over a revival
nearby tam morning he came in-
to the store wearing a very seri-
ous look on his fat dark face Ills
partner questioned him
"What's Win' you all dim marn-
in'?" iipiffin asked MON
'Taw jist been studyin' a little
Bro Spiffin we all ain't doin' jimt
right We'n gottah try an' give full
value to' ebber dollar what we
takes in Iiro Hpirtinm dot's jimt
what we gottah do to have any
peace We's jist gottath try" Moss
!spooled with emphamis
owe IN Is we Well" Splinn
spoke up rather !dilly "what dis
nigger wants to know is how we
ebber goin' to get rich givin' full
value for' ebber dollar?"
"Well no titie gettin' roughed lip
'bout it Bro Spirtina t didn't say
we muss give full value to' ebber
dollar I said we muss jist try!"
Expression
Everything and everybody crave
exeression SWOP of course won't
admit it but even in their stub-
bornnems they are in a measure
expressing themselves Expression
is a natural and divine attribute
of mankind and of everything else
for that matter It is but natural
for the bird to sing: flowers to
bloom: the san to burr donklem
to bray and for man to imitate
the whole shebang or at least
try to
There are various and sundry
ways of expression and however
awkward or clumbsy one might
be if his purpose is right and his
method be natural he needs not
cringe nor crawl to any person or
personage He may be lacking ever
so much in eloquence he might
use poor English (and who doesn't
more or less) he might even stut-
ter no doubt in the least but what
he will stammer unless he is a
professional talk punter lint what
of it what if be does if be has a
purpose and has gumption enough
to quit some time or other within
Possible reason a thing that is so
!often lacking with experienced air
machines? No OPP person nor
crowd of persons professions or
whatnots have any monoply what-
soMeever an saying our say polish
nor no polish belleveitornot You
land I and every other simple stick
or has just as much right to hol-
ler as some one that has nothing
else to do when we really have a
holler as we here call it coming
lint we don't often do it do we?
NAW I shoold sal we don't and
look what we get once in awhile
for being so danged 'fraid to speak
up We leave the speaking-up busi-
ness to somebody thats more and
likiiy got their hand in our hip
pocket while he's entertaining us
(question mark belongs here) and
then after the digging starts in we
go around behind the barn (I
guess its a garage now) and TALK
