Mrs. E. L. Wright was shopping in
Guymon Saturday from the Midway
neighborhood. Says a great deal of
the planting has to be done over.
After the crop was up and seemed
to be doing well, the dry cold weather
caused it to rot. After this splendid
rain a large acreage will be put in
and prospects at the present seem
favorable for some time to come as
we have an abundance of moisture.

marks. Used on old floors it
makes the house look new again,
makes it more sanitary and saves

J. W. Duncan and daughter Miss
Mollie, and Mr. and Mrs. Ed Jermyn
of Friendship motored to Guymon
Wednesday. Miss Duncan took the
train this morning for Ashland, Kan-
sas, to spend a few weeks with Mr.
and Mrs. M. H. Davidson, who were
former residents of Texas county. In
conversation with Mrs. Jermyn we
learned that another nice shower vis-
ited Friendship Tuesday afternoon.
Their crop is all up and looking fine
and they feel very hopeful for a
trading center of Texas county and
the Rock Island brings its daily quota
of shoppers to our merchants. We
are frequently asked by people visit-
ing here from distant states how
Guymon supported so many up-to-
date stores. All we have to do to
convince them of the enormous busi-
ness done here is to take them to a
few trains and let them follow a
small bunch of shoppers to the var-
ious stores to purchase the necessi-
ties they have on their lists. The
good yield this year. Ed Jermyn will I auto roads leading to Guymon are
get it if anyone does, judging from [ never free from vehicles coming to
his former experiences as a farmer and going from Guymon laden with
in Texas county.
I produce and merchandise.
! are the life of Guymon.
These
Mr. and Mrs. T. E. William-
son, who two years ago sold
his farm just southwest of Guymon
and took his departure for
greener fields, came in Monday af-
ternoon and has been quite busy re-
newing acquaintances and shaking
hands with his many old friends here.
After leaving here Mr. Williamson
spent a year in Texas and eastern
Oklahoma and then oought a 140-
acre farm near Alma, Arkansas, upon
which he moved last November. His
health has greatly improved since he
located in Arkansas and he informs
us that he is feeling like a young
man again. He is delighted with his
new home and is looking forward to
buying more land there.
Mrs. Will Snyder of Optima visited
Guymon between trains Monday and
did much necessary shopping. Guy-
Mrs. E. C. Shook and daughter
Birdena, left Friday morning for Em-
poria, Kansas, where the latter will
attend school during the summer.
Miss Shook has been engaged for the
primary department during the com-
ing year which speaks well for her
ability as an instructor of little folks.
She has been in the lower grades for
several years and has given such com-
plete satisfaction to the patrons that
the board conceived the idea of offer-
ing her the primary. Miss Myrtle
Salter has been elected for second
grade which completes the faculty
roll for the ensuing year, unless
Uncle Sam robs us of our superin-
tendent and principal, we have a
corps of teachers hard to beat, and
since the schools of the country are
only secondary in importance to the
producer, we are selfish enough to
mon is capital, metropolis and chief I hope that ours will be left intact
