A garbled page item mix reports a beans-in-a-bottle contest at Gem Pharmacy with a 1907 date, a doll prize won by Mrs G A D Sipe, and a Beaver Christian Endeavor Society election of officers. Also noted is a proposed bill in Congress to locate the Oklahoma insane asylum at Fort Supply and Oklahoma legislative activity in Washington.
