The accounting department, which has hitherto depended on the kindness and skill of the reporters of the transporta- tion department, will. commencing with this issue, submit i ts own news. V. L. Thornan having been appointed the of- Rcial reporter. May we introduce Mr. Thomas hy the brief statement that he wme to us from the southwestern divi- sion. with the re-establishment on May

'16th of the positlon of completion report clerk.

Miss Mabel Cunningham, our proflclent steno-clerk, has just returned from a short vacation profltably spent in Chi- cago. Having now learned the trafPic regulations of that busy clty. Mahel re- ports that on future visits there will be no d:mser of her being again tapped by a moving taxi.

Golflng holds a great attraction for division accountant C. U. Allen. When he phones Mrs. Allen to "have a sand- afch reads" i t is understood that he picks up the sandwich in passing hia residence after 5 p. m., joins division storekeeper John Walker, who carries a ~im~lar pnckr~ae. and together they pro- ceed to the golf course. I t is reported that in lieu of supper they ea t their sand- wiches while walking between holes, the Idea belng to waste no tlme upon un- necessary matters.

One of the best gardens in Enid faces :he back door a t the residence of J. R. Sickles, hfll ond vmrchei. c l ~ r l i .Tncli. how- ever, relates the worms therein being very numerous, he enticed the sparrows to his rarden I)y feedinr: them Idrd seed so that they would ea t the worms. Now he doesn't know which are the most destruc- tire the snarrows or the worms.

During the absence of 3Trs. D. 9. Thornton, who is visiting relatives In St. Louis. Mr. Thornton has seen flt on some occasions to ask the reporter to his home u hid guest. Mr. Thornton evidently has wne orlrinal ideas about brealtfast a s he served soup.

On the western division we have a vet- vr3n who alnravs seems to "net there" in ppite of discouraaements. We should be tickled If he would visit the other divi- $Ions. His name is -

PERCY "Oh, Percy," cried a friend to me,

"What are you doing there-- Up In the top of tha t high tree.

Where people a t you stare?"

"And Percy, howe'er dld you climb A tree so tall and slick?

Pray, spare a moment oP your time, And let me know the trick "

I shouted down, "No trick a t all, Just has a trick's appearance,

You see I climb and do not fall, Because I'm Perseverance."
