Last Thursday evening the
American Legion members con-
vened in their hall and held a
rally good meeting. A number
of its members who reside in the
country were present, and the
Post also entertained the band
boys.^ The ladies of the auxil-
iary prepared some eats for the
boys and after the meeting all
fell in for "chow." Rev. Cam-
eron was present and delivered
a very appreciative address.
Jim Gray of Welling and Judge
Robertson were selected as dele-
gates to the state convention,
which convened at Bartlesville
Monday and Tuesday of this
week. They will, while there,
ascertain full plans for the big
trip to New Orleans next month

information is now that a special
train from Muskogee will carry
part of our ex-Bervice men and
who will receive a fare of one
cent a mile to and from the con-
vention. Several of the boys
from our vicinity contemplate
going, and while there make the
trip to Havana, Cuba.

TWO GOOD ONES!
Our esteemed friends, Johnnie
Gulager and John B. Stapler,
were selected by the American
Legion at their last meeting to
promote the entertainments for
the fall season, and every one
is looking to some high-class en-
tertainment. Prospects are, a
large "square dance" will be
had before long, and a home tal
ent play. When they have them
let's all go and show the Legion
we appreciate their organization.
We are advised that the Post
contemplates starting the erec
tion of their Home in the near
future.
A PRAYER
Lord I am only a nestor, a New
Mexico dry farmer. Thou know-
est that when wheat was $2.00
per bushel and I had flour and
sugar in the house and cake and
pie every time I wanted it, I was
not satisfied and voted for a
change. Thou knowest that I
wore a Harding badge and a
Bursum button and was faithful
in all things to the G. O. P.,
even so, Thou knowest that I
believed in the Dawn of a New
day and that wool would advance
in price, that I would get $4.00
for wheat, 15c per pound for
beef and 20c per pound for pork.
Lord, two years have gone nev-
er to retur and I am too poor to
buy the necessary Rockyfellow
for my Henry, but I still wear a
Harding badge, but now it is on
the seat of my overalls. Lord, I
am thankful for one thing and
that is that Harding has been
able to make Jack rabbits taste
good in the summer time; pray
Thee Thou wilt keep them re-
plenished so that I shall not
want. Likewise, Lord, Thou
knowest that I have always be-
lieved A. B. Fall to be the great-
est Texas statesman that ever
voted sheep in New Mexico and
owned mines in the domain of
Panco Villa; he was my friend
and the friend of Rockyfellow
even unto the Wyoming oilfields.
I am glad, O Lord, that Thou
hast prospered the railroads and
that they have been enabled to
keep up their freight rates when
my corn would not pay the ex-
penses of gathering. And I pray
Thee that Thou wilt continue to
uphold Treasurer Strong and
that the State Auditor may be
enabled to collect interest for
many years on the state funds
for his own bank account for it's
in a righteous cause. Teach me
to pray.
"Our Father who art in Wash-
ington, Harding be Thy name;
His Kingdom came, His will be
done, even in keeping the sol-
diers out of a bonus. Give us
each day our daily corn bread
that Wilson tried for two years
to make us eat and that Hard-
ing had us eating in three
months; and lead us not into
temptation to vote for a demo-
crat, and Harding's be all the
power, and Mellon's be all the
money, and Rockyfellow'sail the
oil for ever and ever, and mine
the patched trousers. Amen!'1
