Places have been reserved for a few Muskogee youngsters. You business men are asked to hark back to the days of your own boyhood, think what a vacation meant, and dig up the few dollars you will never miss to send some hard working little fellow away for a much needed rest and a few days of the life which is the due of every real American boy. l3oy Scouts are now at Camp tahlequah. Their outing will be ended in another week. Secretary Fenstermacher of the boys' division of the Y.

M. A. and others in charge have volunteered to remain and look after the poor boys. Railroad fare and all will only co9t $6 a head. Only $6 will make some little fellow supremely happy for two weeks.

Can you loosen up and spare that amount for the best cause for which money can ever be expended? "The ole swimmin' hole" is calling to the kiddies and the sunfish are flashing sportively in the clear waters around Camp Tahlequah. It nature's challenge to boyhood come again. If you are willing to contribute $6, or any sum, no matter bow large or small, send it at once to "Poor Boys' Vacation Fund, care of the Muskogee Times- Dcmocrat." Twenty boys can be cared little brothers 1 AWNING STRIPE SKIRT A DANGER R. H. E.

Quivering with rage at the sight of a red and white awning stripe skirt worn by Mies Veda LeFcvre of Muskogee, a giant Hereford bull belonging to Herman Jforaker, a farmer east of the 'City, charged down upon the young lady and a companion as they were crossing the pasture, tore the offending garment to shreds with one hook of hla horns and hurled his victim over the hedge into the public road, where sho was rescued only allghtly injured but almost prostrated by the Moss LjiFevre and Miss MiUle Brown had driven Into the country picnicking with a party of friends. They left the crowd to gather flowers In a field, not knowing the bull was pastured there. Both girls wore awning stripe skirts, Miss LaFevre 's being red and Miss Brown 's blue. It was the broad red stripe of Miss LeFcvre's Rklrt that angered the bull, according to Farmer Foraker. The farmer says he used a red and white striped tent, similar In appearance to tho skirt, to cover a strawstack last season in a field adjoining the one where the bull Is kept It so fretted the animal that he nad to take it away.

He thinks the bull believed he hud sighted his old enemy when he Bavv tho girl's skirt. The young ladies say they were still close to the fence when they saw their peril. Tho bull bellowed loudly, tossed his head in the air, pawed the carthr and charged straight down upon them. They made a run for the fence but were unable to scramble over it In time. Both Miss LaFevre and Miss Brown are' able to be about today, although Miss LaFevre bears a few scratches and Is still very nervous as a result of her unusual experience.

The girls say country life doesn't appeal to them any more. a COULD HE DO THAT? 6. L. Boley, Holy Roller preacher, was arrested this afternoon on the complaint of P. H.

Cobb, Holy Roller captain, that Boley had used "violent and abusive language toward him." Boley was released on $100 bond in Justice W. O. Miller's court. Cobb contended that Boley had "cussed him out" on the street. Both parties ap pearcd In court American League.

There were alight about Bntggs and Tahlequah and other places cast and southeast, but no heavy rain. The O. O. offices report showers between Muskogee and Henryetta, but no real rain. There were slight showers between Muskogee and Tulsa.

There seemed early today but little prospect for early rain. The corn crop can last but a few days longer and cottpr. is beginning to show the effects of drouth. The yesterday had the effect of partially cooling the air and last night was tolerable for sleeping purposes. The thermometer in this section ranges from 100 to 104 between noon and 5 p.

m. READY TO BUILD NEW BLOOMFIELD HME1UIINN GLAD TO SM Stlgler, OkUu, July Hasaell county gave Congressman W. W. Hastings the heartiest welcome ever tendered a public official. Two years ago.

when Mr. Hastings was hla campaign for elecUon to the national house of representatives he promised the people of this county i that if he should be elected he would never set his foot upon the soil of Haskell county again until he had secured a payment to the Choctaw Indians, which compose a very large population of thia section of his district The same train which carried Mr. Hastings here today brought the first check tor three hundred dollars by United States mail (to quite a number of the Choctaws. Crowds met him at each town he visited and gave him assurance of strong appreciation for having kept his promise. Although he had arranged to speak I at only three places Mr.

Hastings was to address the people who had assembled six and covered over one hundred miles of the county by train and automobile. He was accompanied by a retinue of friends including District Judge Brown, County Judge Crittenden and a number of public officials and citizens, in his rounds today. He reviewed In a general way his work In congress and reported that during his eight months at Washington he had never been absent I a single time when the roll of members was called or a vote taken. He explained in detail the rural credits bill as by the banking and currency committee of which he is a I member and passed by almost' a I unanimous vote of the house and senate and-showed how it not only pro- vldcd a means for the-farmer to borrow money at a low rate of Interest, but upon long time, so that it sible for the average farmer to buy a I farm without Initial capital and pay for it oven a period of years out of the income it would 'produce.

There were 2,000 delegates from over the United States, who attended this annual convention and many of the bigger men in tho business laid down their work in order to attend.

Tho most vital problem discussed was the matter of consolidation of the manufacturers, theater owners, and employes which was for mutual benefit and protection. This new association will endeavor to standardize the business, as the moving picture Industry has now gotten to the point where it is no longer a paying propo- sltion. It Is at a standstill, and man) of the large manufacturers are already, closed and others are closing. A fight Is to be staged against slurs whose heads have been turned by public attention. They demand thoutvinds of dollars per year for their acting.

By standardizing these salaries much more money could bo spent on improving the motion picture industry which "la Just in an Infantile stage and which is just as unexplored as the air. In it there is a big field for exploration. Another reason for falling business is the waste in the studio. A big star may fall to show up at the studio for I a half or an entire day and the' other members of the company, the directors, arc kept Idle during thai I time, but tholr pay must continue. interest In pictures on the ipart of the gum-ml public Is still an-; phase of the subject which is: the association.

I "Many theaters throughout the coun- try are closing on account of unrest In I tho business, in prew Tork, Jmany theaters have closed because of I Infantile paralysis," said Mr. Brophy.
