# finally Designated ns a Portion of
Main Lino of O. T.
Col YV. 11. Harvey visited chan-
dler and Lincoln county on Last Sun-
day and on Wednesday night was the
guest of honor of the Pull Together
Hub and citizens of Chandler.
He was delighted with our prog-
ress in road making, he was delight-
ed with the reception he received all
along the line through the county,
he was delighted with the interest
being manifest by all in the improve-
ment of our highways he gave us
the Trail.
Sunday’s visit was a scouting trip
over the proposed trai^ from
Sapulpa to Oklahoma City. Colonel
Harvey was mot at Sapulpa by
President .!. S. Thompson of the F.
<). T and by him accompanied
throw:# to Oklaboni.u City. The
colonel was more than "leased when
he struck the Lincoln county line
near Stroud. There be was greeted
by dozens of automobiles loaded with
men and women, all road boosters.
Chandler sent 24 car loads to Stroud,
20 of these#'ars bore penants bear-
ing the Inscription “O. T.” These
accompanied the official party to
Chandler and a few went on to Wcll-
ston. •
At tin entrance to the city of
Wellston -.ft immense American tlag
was Btretcned across the road and
the .party was greeted by a large
crowd of citizens. From here the
scouting party went on t<#()klahonia
City via Luther. Jones City and
Luther, Jones City
Spencer. *
Even before tlie party reached Ok-
lahoma City Colonel Harvey express-
ed himself so well please^with con-
ditions that he decided then ami
there to de.-ignnte the F. O. T. as the,
official Ozark Trail, a portion of the j < ot \lv
main line from St. Louis. *
Monday inornirflu accompanied by
a crew of painters the work of imilf
ing the trail was commenced. The
mark is a broad band of white, bor-
dered with bands of green with the
letters “O. T.” in green on the field
of white. •
The party reached Wellston Tues-
day and that night a good roads
meeting was held there.
Wednesday the trail was marked
as far as Chandler by noon. Then
the painters were given a rest until
Mr. Harvey could inspect the two
roads between Chandler and Daven
that the O. T. traversed the great
zinc tields, the immense* oil fields
and the most picturesque scenery in
the country.
Mr. Harvey also called attention
to the annual meeting of the associa-
tion, which will be held at Indepen-
dence, Kans., on Jun^ 7-8-9, and
stated that already be hud received
assurances that the attendance would
be three times greater than at any
previous meeting of the association
He also .stated that our county
was blessed by having the best road
building material to be found any-
where—sand and clay. That sand
and clay or sand and gumbo, when
properly mixed, made the best road
in the world. He also extolled the
virtues of the road drag and advised
its continual use when the ground
was wet.
Colonel Harvey closed his talk by
explaining just why he selected the
routes lie did. He did not mince
words but told us of our faults and
of the results he expected before the
Independence convention.
At the conclusion of Mr. Harvey’s
remarks an informal reception was
held in which our people met and
conversed with him. Then a sump-
tuous buffet luncheon was served, to
which%ll paid their hearty respects.
The meeting was a hugh success
from start to finish and every person
present went home mor* than ever
interested in the good roads move-
ment and with a determination to
work hard and faithfully to the end
that, in time, the entire county might
he traversed with a system of perfect
dirt roads. **
We are all glad to have had Mr.
Harvey wifti us. We are more than
pleased that lie saw fit to select our
route us the official trail. We see
ahead better and •more prosperous
times for Lincoln county -all due to
the good roads movement.

NAMES THREE MOKE .U RGES TO
ACT AS COMMISSIONERS.
Governor R. L^~Williams Tuesday
designated three more district judges
to act as supreme court commission-
ers for a period of four months. Tom
I). McKeown, seventh district; (’has
W Wilson. Jr., tenth district, anti
W. ( . Crow, nineteenth district, are
the judges named.
"Let me give you a news item,"
said Governor Williams in connection
with these appointments. "Just say
that these are three district judges
who are going to spend their summer
vacations working at the capitol
city.”
These three new appointments
raises the number of commissioners
to fifteen. The governor, under the
law that provided for his appointing
the commission, still has power to
name three more judges.
\ FARMER ROY.
-. •
A farmer’s son needs a business
education more than does a mer-
chant’s son, because the latter can,
to a certain extent receive some
knowledge of business from his fath-
er's store, therefore if the farmer’s
son d*.- not obtain it at a business
college, he must #do without. A
business education supplies in a great
measure, the lack of a common school
or college education. By attending
the Chandler Business College, those
farmer boys who have been denied
good school advantages would learn
to write gracefully, spell correctly,
draw up contracts and many other
kinds of business papers; would learn
to do business as an individual pro-
prietor, partnership :d corporatioi
In fact, if ‘ ssessen of natural ability
they would be prepared to take and
hold leading positions. Young farm-
ers become Hit %est business men.
The majority of the wealthy mer-
chants of this oountry were origin-1
ally hard working farmer boys. Now. j
boys don’t miss this opportunity of
securing a business education. If
you i i in a rad is o
miles you may drive in and save that

being taken to perfect a north and

will be known as the K. O. T. (Kan-

have its beginning up in Kansas ami
end clown in Texas.
President ‘Thompson then intro-
duced the "man of the hour" Ool.
W. H. Harvey, the man who origin-
ated the O. T. and who has spent
15 years in road promoting. Colonel
Harvey spoke for over an hour. Told
of the many blessings good roads
brought to a community and of the
especial advantages of being located
up m an official and marked trail.
The O. T. consists of about. 1500
miles of road, 700 miles of which
have already been routed and mark-
ed. Mr. Harvey went on to explain
that Chandler was on the main line
from 8t. Louts to Oklahoma City,
that, eventually, the trail would be
extended to southwest Oklahoma,
thence on to El Paso, Thx., and to
California Tlrtis plaelnu u upon a
transcontinental line that will, in
