|ran|NO! Hg
Learn to say No! It’s the
biggest little word in the
English language. Every
day—each hour of the day—
there is the temptation to
spend money. Yield to it—
and you will be poor all your
life.' Learn to say NO—put
every dollar and every penny
you can possibly scrape to
gether in your Bank Account
lere and you will become
joth rich and successful. If
you say NO to-day to the
little things you will be able
to say YES in the future to
the big things.
“A time comes to the most
easy when he must answer
‘No,’ or go open-eyed to ruin.
Then he finds that, from long
disuse, the word will not

all clouds, the one window in which the
light forever burns, the one star that
darkness cannot quench, is woman’s
love. It rises to the greatest heights,
it sinks to the lowest depths. It for
gives the most cruel injuries. It is
perennial of life, and grows in every
climate. Neither coldness nor neglect,
harshness nor cruelty can extinguish
it. A woman’s love is the perfume of
the heart. This is the real love that
subdues the earth; the love that has
wrought all miracles of art; that gives
us music all the way from the cradle
to the grand closing symphony that
bears the clouds away on wings of fire
A love that is greater than power
sweeter than life and stronger than
death.”
Dick Jenness Still Lucky.
The following taken from the Ok
mulgee (Okl.) Daily Democrat re
fers to R. H. Jenness, formerly editor
of the Atkinson Graphic and later re
ceiver of the United States land office
in this city. After retiring from th*
land office here about twelve years
ago he went to Okmulgee and a few
weeks afterwards was appointed
postmaster of that city, a position he
held for some seven years, being suc
ceeded by a democrat. After retiring
from the postoffice he was elected one
of the commissioners of the city and,
as will be seen by the following he will
be re-elected without opposition. Dici
has many friends in this city and
county who will rejoice that, good
fortune still smiles upon him.
“The old saying that “It’s better tc
be bom lucky than rich” is a good
one, or at least Commissioner of Fi
nance R. H. Jenness so believes.
“Jenness’ term of office expires or
April 4 and he is a candidate for re
election and on Friday night at mid
night, the time limit under whieh can.
didates for this office could file as s
candidate expired. No one but Jen
ness filed as a candidate and in con
sequence his election is assured.
‘‘Candidates for public office as e
general thing are very numerous, il
being very seldom that a man is al
lowed to glide into office without op
position, as will be the case with Jen
ness on April 4.
“R. H., or Dick, Jenness was elected
commissioner of finance of Okmulgee
three years ago, and it is certainly a
compliment to his ability as an official
that no one is wi'ling to enter the
race against him for re-election.”

TRIBUTE TO WOMEN.
This often quoted tribute to wo
men by Robert G. Ingersoll enlivens
appreciation on the part of most men:
"It takes a hundred men to make an

make a home. I not only admire
woman as the most beautiful object
ever created, but I reverence her as
the redeeming glory of humanity, the
sanctuary of all perfected qualities of
heart and head. It is not just nor
right to lay the sins of men at the
feet of women. It is because women
are so much better than 4pen that their
faults are considered greater. The

Mogul 8-16 Price Announcement
The Real Kerosene Tractor
ON and after April 1st the price of the Mogul 8-16
will be $725 cash f. o. b. Chicago. All sales
made and bona fide orders taken up to April ist will
be filled at the present price of $675 cash f. o. b. Chicago.
We want to post you ahead of time on the coming change.
Mogul 8-16, as you know, is the famous tractor that has
cut fuel costs squarely in half — operates on cheap, common
kerosene or coal oil — doesn’t have to be the highest grade
either. It pays for itself in the saving over gasoline. That
is why the rise in price — necessary because cost of raw
materials has risen so high — is of minor importance.
Mogul 8-16 is saving and making profit on thousands of
forms of all sizes. It will do much more for you than your
horses can. Get in your order now — be ready for spring
work. See the dealer who sells the Mogul 8-16.

Ye scribe read in a recent issue oJ
an Omaha daily that President Wilsor
has warned the people of this countrj
against believing all the stories tha1
are sent up from Mexico, since there
is both Americans and Mexicans whe
are influenced by the special interests
to bring about intervention in Mexicc
by their country. At the same tims
his course in dealing with Europeai
affairs is such, that most people ar<
wondering how he is going to keej
this country out of the great Europear
holocost, and pursue at the same tims
his present policy in dealing witl
, them. Also it is a matter of genera
belief that the special interests ari
dictating his present policy with s
view of precipating this country into s
war with the central powers that the;
(the special intereses) may add ai
enormous amount of money to theii
already swollen fortunes, without anj
regard whatever for the rights of suf
fering humanity. President Wilsor
has made many bad blunders durinj
his administration, but the blunder h<
made in recognizing Carranza before
he had established a stable govern
ment, and suppressed the anarchy tha1
is raging in Mexico, is likely to cost i
lot in human lives and money before
the bandit Villa is captured. Had Wil
son waited until some form of govern
ment had been established in Mexico
and all lawlessness been suppressed
this punitive expedition into Mexico at
this time would not have been neces
sary, and perhaps at no other time
either. Therefore I say that all
voters should not fail to go to the
primaries on Tuesday the 18th of
Aprli to enter their protest against the
assumption of government for, of, and
by the special interests instead of for,
of and by the people as it should be,

Another Mexican Massacre.
Three Americans, two women and
one man, were killed near Gibson’s
line ranch, on the New Mexico-Mexico
boundary, eight miles west of Colum
bus, N. M., between 4 and 5 o’clock
Wednesday afternnoon, presumably by
Mexican raiders, according to the
story brought to Douglas, Ariz., by a
party of five Douglas residents, who
said they arrived on the scene shortly
after the bodies had been removed by
United States soldiers. A command
of United States soldiers stationed at
the Gibson ranch was said to have
crossed the line in pursuit of the
slayers.

British Take Men of 45.
A recent London cablegram says
that while there has been no official
announcement to justify the reports
that the military age limit is to be
extended to men of 45 yei rs, the first
step in this direction is indicated ir
instructions issued to recuiting depots
for field artilery, garrison artilery and
army veterinary corps. These in
structions state that the recuiting of
-—
fleers may “use their discretion here
after in enlisting men between the
ages of 41 and 45 years.”
Armored Train Sent to Border.
A train of armored railroad cars
loaded with thirty-two motor trucks
for use of the United States army in
! Mexico passed through Topeka, Kan.,
1 Thursday.
1 The armored steel cars were made
' for the United States war Depart
1 ment, it was said, by the “Michigan
Central Railroad Company and were
being sent to the Mexican border in
the expectation that by the time the
train reached El Paso arrangements
might have been made between the
1 United States and the de facto govern
1 ment of Mexico whereby the American
forces will be permitted to use Mexi
can railroads.

China Again a Republic.
A China State Department mandate- '

abandonment of the monarchy and re.
sumption of the republic.

will reconvene at the Senate, pre
paratory to the resumption of the
