Is it all right for a girl to spend a few minutes powdering and rearranging her hair upon her arrival at her place of employment? A. Yes, this is all right provided she doesn't impose upon her em- ployer by so doing. It is more considerate on her part if she makes it rather than consume the company’s time. Q. Should the loser in any kind of a game give an alibi for losing? A. Never; it always reveals a lack of sportsmanship. Q. When two men and two women attend a theatre, in what order should they enter the row in which their seats are situated? A. The woman who is to have the farthest seat enters first and is followed by her escort; then the other woman enters, and the other man.

However, Oklahoma Gas and Electric now has stated that it also will have to put up eleven miles of wire. But the crowning irony of the deal is that the Grand River pro- ject interchanges power with Ok- lahoma Gas and Electric when one or the other is short of power. So during “peak” loads, the private company will be buying power from the government at a contract rate of 4 mills, and then selling the same power back to another branch of the Government for 108 mills $1-MEN MAKE REAL DECISIONS This is the picture locally in Ok- lahoma.
