Friends Remind W. L. Lineberry
Of Passing Milestone.
Last Thursday evening a number
of friends and neighbors gathered at
the heme of Mr. and Mrs W. L. Line-
berry, to remind Mr. Lineberry of bis
sixty-first birthday, almost catching
W. L. in the act of washing his feet;
and to say he was not surprised would
be small indeed.
The sitting room and dining room i
were prettily decorated in golden rod j
and ferns. Gamps and various other j
amuaments were played; after which ;
a lunch was served of ice cream, cake, j
sandwiches and bananas, and it!
would be hard to say who consumed |
the most.
Those from a distance were Mr.
Ranch of Jackson, Mrs. D. E. Line,
berry and dausht' r Ruby of Nowata.

We know nothing   as   to    the   fact
whether    there is -iieh a "league" or
not.      We   have received some of the
circulars sent out   by    this    "league"
and do not hesitate tu say that we do
not believe in that style of campaign

he has   traduced    Mr.    Ellis   a   legal
remedy is at hand.       This   cannot be
said of an anonymous, scurrillous circular   in    reference   to   Mr.    Currie.

Glerum Booster Club.
The "Glerum Booster Club" with
J4 automobiles profusely decorated
struck town on Wednesday. To our
mind such a parade is simply a waste
of gasolene, no matter in whose interest undertaken. The day has
gone past when voters can be stampeded by any such method. Nine
tenths of the people will persist in
believing that somebody or some interest is putting up the coin to finance such a campaign.
