The first year in Okla. he lived with Uncle Dan Krehbiels, working on the farm during the summer and attending school at Deer Creek and helping with the chores during the winter. The next two years he was at home doing most of the farm work and in the fall of 2nd year he began working in the D.C. Mercantile and going to school the first year. After Jan. 1, 1907, he entered Bethel College where he completed the Academic Course, then remained at home one winter while Will attended A. & M. College, then he was employed in the Bank of D.
