Mass., July 26.—Life is
worth living to George
, world war veteran,
shell shocked, has re-
hearing and speech,
manner in which he recov-
lost senses is described by
men as an almost unprece-
ted “miracle.”
Gibbs at the age of 19, enlisted
in the famous Princess Pat Canadian
regiment. He went overseas with his
comrades and was wounded in the
[ terrific fighting at Neufohatelle. Re-
moved to a field hospital he was
found to be suffering from shell
shpek and ten body wounds. He was
unuble to hear or speak. Physicians
worked in vein -to restore his lost
senses;.
A few days ago Gibbs appeared
in Lawrence and secured a position
as a watchman for Herrick- Aiken,
guarding a building that was being
moved from Pine street to Chestnut
street.
But life in the building was lone-
ly and early one morning the war
veteran fell Into a sound sleep.
Patrolman Henry Roche, making
his rounds, discovered him there.
In belief that Gibbs was just a
tramp the officer entered the build-
ing, played a flashlight on the
sleeping veteran, and tapped the
soles of his shoes with a night stick.
Gibbs leaped to his feet, startled.
He identified himself to the patrol-
man and the latter walked to the
door, opened it and went out. As
the patrolman passed through the
door It stemmed shut. Gibbs heard
the noise. He sat down for,* minute
and said, referring to the officer
“Damn hjm.” ’»
Discovery that he could both hear
and speak was too much for the
shattered nerves of the veteran and
he cried himself to sleep with joy.
Pour brothers and a Htstei1 of
Gibbs were killed during the fight-
ing at Armentiers.

AT CAMPBELL
I was called to Campbell Tues-
day afternoon to hold a funeral aer-
viee of Mrs. 8. J. Standifer, age
tig, who was a member of the First
Baptist church of Campbell where
I am pastor. She was stricken or
Tuesday evening, the 20th, with ap
oplexy and died on Monday evening,
the 26th. She was a good woman
and faithful lo her church and pas-
tor. The weather never got too hot
nor' too cold for her to g« to the
church on meeting days. She leave;
a husband, five children, two broth
ere and a host of friends to mourn
her going away. But our loss ia Hea-
ven’s gain, for sh* left the testimony
that she was going home to be with
all of the loved ones that had gone
on before.

Most of the farmers of our State
are “broke" and ara facing some
unfavorable and serious conditions.
Col. Jones has made a special
study of the farmers' problems and
if anybody in Texas knows how to
solve them we believe he does. It Is
a rare thing for a prominent law-
yer like Col. Jones t$ come out ss
a champion of the cause of the com-
mon farmer and use his wonderful
intellect ami ability to help the man
who is down and out.
Every farmer in Hopkins county
has a special invitation to come out
and hear him tell us how to get out
of the hole we are in and become
independent like ill other classes of
people.
This is a question that vitally
concerns all of us, because everf
citUen is dependent on the farmer
for many of the necessities of life.
You can not afford to miss this ad-
dress, to do so will be letting a gold-
en opportunity slip by to learn How

WHY WOMEN MAKE UP
Why do women make up?
In view of the fact that everybody
ia doing it now quite openly and with
amazing regularity, this question is
surely worth considering.
Of course, some women don’t
make up, but the exception only
proves the rule. To make up is
smart, fashionable. Nobody
toast ashamed of doing it.
But why do they do it?
There are lota of cheap,
made answers. They do it,
is at
ready
we are
told, to make themselves beautiful
in the eyes of men.
Is that the reason? If so, they
are singularly lacking in their usual
perception, as nine mon out of ten
openly voW that the/ dFBfisf the sRfftit
of a made up woman. They may, of
,-ourse, be insincere. Women may
know them better than they know
themselves and the rate the conven-
tional disapproval at its true worth
Or is make up intended to deceive
the world into believing the women
younger and fairer than they are,
No, a thousand times no. Women
arc far too clever to believe the world
so silly. Besides, no ,enp in their
tenses could believe a pair of lips
freshly covered with lipstick to be
red with Nature's divine rod coloring,
which she so cruelly keeps only for
those who have no need for it.
The real reason is far more subtle.
Make up is all part of woman’s eter-
nul search for that dream of the un-
sttainable to which her ordinary life
is only the dim background. She
tceks it in the darkened theutro of
kinema, where unattainable love
beckons her from stage or screen
while the music stirs her vague long,
ings.
Beauty is, another dream, and to
most an unattainable one, but in t hi
pursuits .lies the pleasure. In the
pearl white of powder, the rose of the
rouge, the carpsine of the lipstick
they fancy hidden beauty lies, and
they pursue the phantom even though
they know the pursuit to be hope
leas. It is a childish game of maki
believe. But then much of life is
that-game.
Yes, women make up to please
themselves.—Lady Troubridgc in
London Daily Time*.
Fort Worth, Texas, July 27.—In
vestigation of the slaying of D. E.
Chipps war continued Tuesday by
the Tarrant County grand jury and
a number of witnesses questioned
during the morning, following which
the investigators adjourned until
Wednesday morning. The “mystery
witness,” said to be a 14-year-old
boy, who is expected to prove im-
portant to the prosecution and
whose name is being kept secret,
will probably not be taken before
the grand jury, according to Assist-
ant District Attorney R. B. Young,
in charge of the case for State.
One of. the witnesses who appear
ed Tuesday was J. J. Mickle, pub-
licity director for the First Baptist
church here. Other witnesses hp-
pearing Tuesday were: Miss Jane
Hartwell, secretary to the Rev. J.
Frank Norris; Loraine Griffin, em-
ploye of the Searchlight, Dr. Nor-

BEFORE ACTING

RE-INFQRCE GUARDS
IN OKLAHOMA
WE SAVE IT. BUT WHAT THEN?
What a leisurely, unhurried peo-
ple we ought to be today.
For nfver in the history of the
world have there been so many time
and labor saving devices as there
are today.
Think ol some of our time and
labor savers. Telephone, electric
lights, automatic pumps, automo-
biles, washing machines, vacuum
cleaners, gas stoves, a million kinds
of machines to save time and labor
In manufacture, tractors to save
time and labor on the farm.
If our ancestors managed to find
time to carry on the business of life
without any of these, surely we
ought to have all the time in the
world to cultivate the beautiful and
worthwhile things of life. But have
we? Where is all thia time we sav-
ed? Do we have It after we have
saved it? And If we have it, what
do we do with it?—Ex.
Guthrie, Okla., July 27.—Five ad-
ditional guards were ordered late
Thursday by Federal officers for
the Jail in which arc confined a
number of important witnesses in
the trial of William K. Hale, weal-
thy cattleman, and John Ramsey,
for the murder. of Henry Roan,
Osage Indian.------------
The action was taken as a precau-
tionary measure after the escape
of a prisoner not connected with the
case from the Logan county jail. A
number of convicts from the Okla-
homa amt Kansas State penitentia-
ries and several from the Federal
prison at Leavenworth arc in the
jail. Jjflld ,w.,«ittn(WP4»v.'i . :
The first panel of 100 venirtmen
waa exhausted Tuesday and selection
of a jury for the trial of Hale and
Ramsey was continued until Wed
nesdsy, when u second panel has
been ordered to report. Several
members of the new panel are from
Osage county, the home of the de
fondant, and the place where Roan
was killed. The defense has used 11
of its 20 peremptory challenges and
the Government has used three of
its six.
The eleven men who have been
tentatively accepted were placed in
custody of the United States Mar-
shal to prevent any attempt to com
municate with them.

Austin, Texas, July 27.—A con-
ference of Moody men was held at
a local hotel Tuesday, at which was
adopted a firm policy with reference
to coming events. They were not
willing to talk much, but succinctly
stated that is what they agreed tor
To make no moves until after the
second primary.
To -Wpposc any investigation by
the present Legislature.
To oppose confirmations of all ob-
jectionable Ferguson recess ap-
pointees. /
To ask the next Legislature to
enact a law prohibiting any member
of the Legislature from practicing
before the State departments, the
same as the Federal statute.
To demand that the State execu-
tive committee, when, it meefs at
Dallas Aug. 0 place Moody’* name
on the ticket in the run-off even
though Gov. Ferguson has indicated
her withdrawal and that she will not
further contest Moody for the nomi-
nation.
In deciding not to make any
movement before the next primary
they want to take no chances, but to
insure the nomination of Moody
without possible legal complications
growing out of the withdrawal of
the Governor, it is for the same rea-
son that they will demand that his
name go on the ballot in the run-
off of Aug. 28. They want to pre-
serve the situation- now in Moody's
favor.
Oppose Senate Prebe.
Investigation by the coming ben-
ate is opposed on the following
grounds, as expressed by one of the
conferees: "Only six member; of
the Senate have not practiced be-
fore the State Highway ■Commis-
sion. We want no - investigation -by
that body, but by a new Senate.”
Only half of the Senate is elected
this year, the other half being bold-
overs. Further commenting, this con-
feree said: “To prevent u recurrence
of this situation we will ask the nex‘
Legislature to enact a law proliibi*-
Ing legislators from practicing be-
fore any of the State departments.”
Deciajon to oppose the confirma-
tion of objectionable Ferguson ap-
pointees confirms the' statements
made earlier in the day by those
who will be close to the incoming
administration.
A highly important report brought
out of the conference was that a
few of them had heard that the
Governor has received the rcsigna-
Chm of John H. Bickett' Sr. as a
member of the State Highway Com-
mission, and that Eugene T. Smitfi,
also of San Antonio, would be ap-
pointed to fill the vacancy. Snfith
has been secretary of the commis-
sion since the Ferguson administra-
tion assumed office, and is familiar
with ail its work. Bickott is resign-
ing, according to the report, because
of continued ill health.
To Fifhl Appointees.
It was the unanimous opinion of
the conferees that the Governor has
not kept her agreement to resign
“immediately" when it became
known that Moody had led her in
the primary election.
The contest against Ferguson ap-
pointees will be focused on the two
and possibly three members of the
Highway Commission, as well as on
certain members of thg State Text*
book Commisaion who voted lor the
spelling contract awarded the
American Book Company.
Senator A. E. Wood of Granger,
who made speeches Lor Moody for
Governor and who it the Senator
from Moody’s district, will probably
be the Senate spokesman for Moody
when the Legislature convenes. He
conferred with Mr. Moody for some
time Tuesday, and later admitted the
coming session of the Legislature
was dWrksssd.
“Without prejudicing any case,”
said Senator Wood, "you can say
we expect a contest to tie made
against cetUin appointees whose of-
ficial acts have been censured and
whose policies have been unwise and;
wasteful to the State.”
“M.v position will be,” c.;ntihu.‘d
Senator Wood, “that the Senate
should refuse confirmation to those
who are subject to condemnation,
but to accord confirmation to those
who have been regularly appointed,
served faithfully and again*: whom,
no charge of malfeasance has been
made. Nothing could be fairer, and
< am willing to give thos* accused
a full hearing to prove their inno-
cence.” Simply because the persons
are Ferguson appointees will not be
a basis for a contest, the Senator
asserted.
Bickatt May Rasign.
The names of Chairman Hal
Moseley and John Cage, members pf
the Highway Commission, will have
to go to the Senate for confirma-
tion^ Moseley’s term expires Feb. 1,
1927, and Cage’s Feb. 1, 1929. John
H. Bickett Sr. previoualy confirm-
ed, whose term expires Feb. 1, 1931,
is expected to resign at any time on
account of ill health, and u third
member appointed before Fergus.m
retires. The names of this third ap-
pointee would also have to go to the
Senate for confirmation.
Members of the Textbook Com-
mission also will have to be submit-
ted for confirmation.
“The Statement made by Gover-
nor Ferguson Monday is not even n
near compliance with the prop -d-
tion she made at Sulphur Springs,”
declared Senator Wood, “and if she
would comply with her own words
her resignation would be in toe
hands of the Secretary of State at
this very minute. She said ‘immedi-
ately’ and if I understand that word
it means right now, the moment it.
became known that Dan Moody bad
received more votes than she did in
the primary election and nbou:
which there is no serious dispute."
Senator Wood said he did not
know how she could be forced to
resign at once, as she promised to
do if Moody received a larger vote,
but that 0|e matter was being given
consideration by other members
the Legislature.
Continuing his dissent from the
Governor's statement of Monday.
Senator Wood said: “That statement
was adroitly worded. It does not
even commit her to resign by Nov.
I. That is the idea gathered from
newspaper headlines, but a careful
reading of her statement shows no
time fixed for the resignation, not
even as early as Nov. 1.”
” The general election is held on
I Nov. 2 when an entirely new Legis-
lature will be elected. The Legisla-
ture which meets on Sept. 13 at the
call Of the Governor passes out of
office following the canvassing oL j
the returns in the November elec-j
tion. Thus the present personnel has j
seventeen days in September and j
all of October with a small part of j
November before passing into his- j
tory.
