Springs Seeping
At Sulphur Again
SULPHUR. July 8— (U.R)—Water is
seeping from the Buffalo Springs
in Platt national park for the
first time in nearly two years.
Park officials believe the springs
will start flowing within a few
days. The springs ceased to flow
after the dry summer of 1938 and
the last trickle ceased in Septem-
ber of that year.
Springs at the head of Travertine
creek, which flows through the
park, also show signs of activity.
Park officials had long worried
over the dry creek bed and had
planned to drill wells to fill the
stream.

HOW CAN I?
By ANN ASHLEY
Q How can I prevent circles from
forming, and also remove the odor,
after cleaning a fabric with gaso-
line?
A After cleaning with gasoline,
put about one-third part vinegar into
the water with which the cloth
is dumpened before ironing. This
will prevent any circles from form-
ing and will remove the gasoline
scent.
Q. How can I remove an obstinate
cork?
A. Dip a piece of woolen cloth into
boiling water and wrap tightly about
the neck of the bottle. In a few
nionutes the cork can be removed.
Q How can I deodorize gasoline?
A. Add five or six drops of oil
of sassafras to each quart of gasoline
used.

In coining In the close of an intcreslmg pol-
itical campaign I lake this means of expressing
my gratitude to the many people who have so
loyally and faithfully supported my candidacy.
Having served one session in the Oklahoma
Legislature, my record has been fully reported
by the press of Canadian County and of the
State. No distort ion of that record should be
accepted.
As a member of the Legislature I supported,
advocated and in some instances was the author
of measures reducing state appropriations more
than $10,000,000.00; permitting the State High-
way Department to retire a deficit of $5,000,-
000.00 so that it could again build roads in the
state; relieving unemployed and distressed per-
sons in the state; enlarging homestead exemp-
tions; remedying the evils existing in agricul-
tural tax refunds and investigating and cleaning
out the Old-Age Assistance Board.
During my membership in the Legislature,
I have maintained a cordial relation with the
State Administration and have succeeded in ob-
taining for Canadian County more than forty
miles of farm to market roads and payed high-
wavs. involving an expenditure in this county
of ‘$400,000.00.
In my service in the l egislature. I have at-
tempted at all times to represent the people of
Canadian County in an honorable and upright
manner. During this campaign I have made no
promises except that I shall continue to repre-
sent Canadian County in a statesmanlike and
dignified manner; that I shall continue to con-
sider the welfare of A LI, the people of Canadian
County.
Throughout the present rampaign I have
followed what I have thought to he an honest,
honorable and fair course. I have refused to
stoop to any questionable tactics. Cpon my own
record, I am content to rest my case for re-elec-
tion with the honest, upright and fair minded
citizens of Canadian County.
Sincerely yours,
A. FRANCIS PORTA.
