Too, much praise can not be given
the men whose persistent efforts per-
fected the plans for tj e Red River
bridge picnic at Preston Bend on Mon-
day. The .suggestion of the picnic
originated In the retail trade commit;-,
tee of flie Chamber of Commerce.' of
which Utk Hall is chairman. and
was at once t )ken up h.v the entire
Chaiiit>er of Coinemrce. Later. I enl-
Hon.and the three Oklahoma towns,
MadilL Kingston and Woodvllle. were
asked to join in the plan?. Commit-
tee* we're appoints! who y<et to work
at outi* to make th^ occasion one of
genuine ph asure and success. Erfiest
Parker, chairman of the publicity com-
mittee. assisted by editors of the vari-
ous coohtv newspapers, gave liberaIIr
of tltw and s|w«-e to advertise the af-
fair. and from the vast crowd in at-
tendance It would seem they sent
word to every "nook and cranny" In
the two counties.
Another tireless worker was L, L.
Boacham. chairman of entertainment
committee, who. though only a recent
resident in this section, strove early
and lain to provide acceptable recrea-
tion for the basts of jsntple who were
there: Among all the faithful work-
ers. none surpassed Secretary John E.
Hurratt of the Chamls>r of Commerce,
who used every tfttoH to promote the
success of the affair. Secretary W. N.
King of the Denlson Chamber of Com-
merce was also an enthusiastic sup
porter of the movement.
Perfect order was maintained at the
picnic by Sheriff Boyd Craig and his
deputies and not a single untoward In-
clrtent occurred to mar the good fel-
lowship "that_preva lied throughout the

One of tin1 most con spire ou* figures
on the picnic grounds, was It. E. Owen
of Woodville. vice president and orie
of the five directors of the bridge
company. Mr. Owen, who is a promi-
nent farmCr and banker, was one of
the originators of the scheme for the
bridge and labored incessantly for the
consummation of the idea which was
reritiaed in the owning ort Monday. He
has for some years used every means
to bring the peoples of the two coun-
ties Into closer relations, and was al-
ways an exhibitor and booster of the
Red River Valley Fair, winning
sweepstakes each year.

There never was n picnic without,
lots of humorous incidents not intend-
ed for the. public eye. One that

Rata Do Damage to Crops.
The section of the road from Pres-
ton Mil to the bridge is sadly In need
of widening for the accommodation
of the heavy traffic which will i ass
over It. Specially dangerous Is the
road around the hill. It should not
only be widened, buf: y stout wall-
should Im* put at the outer ediiro for the"
safety of the traveling public. The
auto accident of Monday 1# sufficient
proof of this great need, and the at-
tention of the Countv Commissioners
is respectfully directed to the matter.

Kingston and Madlll should be just-
ly proud of their respective bands,
which played gratuitously throughout
the day for the vast assemblage.- Cer-
tainly this was a manifestation of a
largcbess of public spirit.
Associated Press Dispatch]
Corpus Christl, Tex., July J,.—Rats
have multiplied so rapidly lh the Gulf
coast district that'they are damaging
growing crops, according to fanners
As a result, and entirely aside from
any consideration of health that
might dictate their extermination,
ca in pa ignis ut whol«molq rodent slaugh-
ter are being organised. The cam-
paigns were inaugurated In Kleberg
county. At a meeting here farmers said
rats were eating corn and other grow-

\ ' splendid suggestion has been
made that the business men of Gray-

This will undoubtedly be one of the

TAKE WIFE ON MOTOR TOUR
Writer Calls That Real Test of Mar-

Before being taken on a motor trmr
wives who themselves drive should
be anesthetized and nil knowledge of
motors removed, Sinclair Lewis writes
In the Saturday Evening Post. For If
thev know anything about the game It
Is SO hard to explain to them why
when you arc trying to pass n car on
the hill and suddenly see another car
bearing down you tirst step on the
accelerator Instead of the brake, then
retard the spark, yank the gear lever
Into neutral, grindlngly try to get It
Into reverse or low or anything that
Is handy, sound the horn, step on the
2ns: again, finally get Into second—
and then kill the motor.
So dangerous a thing is r little
knowledge that In such cases women
have been known to doubt your hav-
ing a perfect reason for ull those clev-
er maneuvers*.
Motoring Is tho real te$t of mar-
