as to conducting the business,
you employ a man to take charge.
Suppose you were never able to
visit the business and knew noth-
ing about it only by the results
obtained and from hearsay of
others as to how it was being
conducted. Your employe has
worked for you three years and
a half and results have been very
satisfactory to you—he had car-
ried your business through some
hard places; conducted the busi-
ness to the satisfaction of the
majority, excepting possibly a
iew rich people who could not
get your employe to run the
business as they wanted it run.
All right, you consider a new
man put up by those that want
to have a say in running your
business. You first want to know
wherein the new man can con-
duct the business better or tern
per steel more perfect than the
man already in. The new man
does not tell you what he can do,
but insists ili.it he is the man
you want, itgardless of how or
what he can do.
Would you be foolish enough j
to let a man go that bus produced ^
results tar beyond your expecta
tions for a ^nan that can't or !
wor’t tell you how he can pro-
duce as good or better results?
The above can be made very
applicable to the president you
will employ next Tuesday.
RESULTS are what counts.
his first term he devoted a lot of
hard work in making himself
conversant with the different
school districts of the county and
in this way there has not been a
hitch in the good work emitting
from the office of county superin-
tendent.
Prof. Hendrix is not a stranger
to school work, as he taught for
seven years in the public schools
of Hobart before his first election
two years ago. He is now in a
position to give (he schools of
the county the best that can be
obtained in efficiency. He is
thoroughly acquainted with the
difficulties of different districts
and has been the means of help-
ing the patrons secure the very
best iu school work connected
with his office.
This office is one of
essential in the county
a good officer in charge the school
patrons receive results. Prof.
Hendrix is efficient, well qualified
and should receive the support
of all political parties.

some of the old time favorite

Each one was, given a peanut,
pina, toothpicks and feathers and
then followed one of the most
uuique of contests. With this
material each lady was to fashion
a barnyard fowl or bird. Some
of the creations were wonderful
and ran the gannet from the well
known chanticleer to the gor
geous bird of paradise.
Mrs. DeLesdernier of Oklaho

has been in the city some years,
she hasn't forgotten some rural

It’s really to hot to get up much
excitement over the election of
next Tuesday.
Before another issue of the
Tribune-Progress election will be
over and about all we can now
say to the voter is, “be carefull of
your ballot." You have no just
excuse for pleading ignorance
of the capability of the candi
dates who were nominated for
office on the natioual. state or
county tickets.
J. B. Hendrix for County Super-
intendent.
Prof. J. B. Hendrix, the pres-
ent inenmbent of the county sup-
erintendent’s office, is the demo-
cratic candidate for re election.
Prof. Hendrix has conducted the
office so successfully thal he had
no opposition in the primary.
This is a good record and speaks
well of his efficiency.

Whatever the verdict of tin-
people next Tuesday may be, the
present President of the United
States is sure of ao exalted place
in history. His task has been as
hard as Lincoln’s was, and he
has performed it as Lincoln
would have done. This and suc-
ceeding generations of Arneri
cans have cause to rejoice at the
course President Wilson has pur-
sued and the things he has ac-
complished, and the fearful
things he has prevented. He has
nothing to fear from a just peo-
ple.

The proposed Ozark Trail road
between Mountain View and Car-
negie is about completed to the
Kiowa-Caddo line. Col. C. S.
Johnson and R. W. Lewis, with
a tractor and engineer, have been
making the dirt fly during the
past week. If a premium were
to be offered for the best piece
of dirt road completed in this
part of Oklahoma it would have
to be left at Mountain View for
the road east of town.
There is a lot of good road
work being done in Kiowa county
and especially south of Mount-
ain View, but this particular road
east of town is like a boulevard,
and about all it needs to be per-
fect is a rain to fall on it and then
be dragged. The east part of
Kiowa county will be the banner
good roads section if the work
continues as it has been doing.
Mtn. View 20—Mangum 38.
The MountainView high school
foot ball team broke their win-
ning streak last Friday on the
home grounds in the hardest
fought game of the season. Man-
gum winning from them with a
38 to 20 score.
Mangum came down strong—■
both team and rooters—with an
idea that they could win. They
did.
The visitors had a beefy bunch
and fast on their feet. This,
with the local boys fumbles and
bard luck passes, won them the
game. However, Mountain View
closed the first quarter with an
cyen break with the visitor—13
to 13. There the score keeper
rested until the last quarter.
Mountain View slipped one over
in the last, but lost a quarterback
and guard. Then Mangum cut
loose, lour touchdowns and one
kick, was their total for the
quarter.
While Mountain View had hard
luck with their own passes, they
reaped a harvest off the visitor’s
—pulling down five for good
gains.
Mountain View will play at
Granite to-day.
