Rev. John A. Stevens breaches a
Stirring Sermon Sunday.
Full Text Is Here Given
The Church Was Crowded With
Members of the Various Labor
Organizations Who Attended
In a Body.

Rev. John A. Stevens, pastor
of the Christian church Of this
city, preached sermon to the
union labor organizations of
Chickasha Sunday afternoon at
3 O'Clock at the church. The
building was crowded with the
various orders, who attended in a
body, and with employers and
others, all Of them interested.
The Carpenters, Brick layers ana
MAsons, Barbers, Retail cIerks,
Stone masons and other organ Z
izations met AT their various halls
at 2:30 and marched to the
church in body, and at 3 o'clock
the sermon commenced.
BY previous arrangement with
Rev. Stevens, a stenographic re-
port of the sermon was permitted
to be made for publication in the
Daily Express. The sermon was
taken by Mr.. j. L. Brown, stem
ographer for the bridge AMI build
ing department Of the Rock Island
railroad, who recorded it at the
rate Of IT'S words a minute, while
100 words ia a good average rate.
The report was paid for by the
Sigmon Furniture and Carpet Co. f.,
who do 1t to show their good will
towards the labor organizations
The sermon in full was as follows;
Ladies and Gentlemen: Fellow
Citizens and Neighbors. / am

noon, and l wish to say Just now
to you brethren, the steDographers,
that l have not anything in the

where royalty and peerage are not

you are simply American citizens

Tendency of the Times.

The tendency of medical science is
toward preventive measures. The best
thought of the world is being given Ia
The subject. 1t is easier and better to
prevent than cure. 1t has been fully
demonstrated that pneumonia, one of
the most dangerous diseases that medi-
ical men have TO contend with, ctn la
prevented by the use of Chamberlain
Cough Remedy. Pneumonia always re-
suits from a cold or from an ATTACK of
influenza grip and it has been observed
that this remedy c0unteracts any tenden-
cy. of these diseases toward pneumonia
This has been fully proven in many
thousands of cases in which this remedy
has been used during the great prevalence
OF colds and grip in recent years, and
can he relied upon with implicit conf
dence. Pneumonia often results from a
slight cod when no danger is apprehend-
cd until it is suddenly discovered that
there Is fever and difficulty in breathing
and pains in the chest, then it is an
m' unced that the patient has pneumonia
BE on the safe side and take Chamber
laln's Cough Remedy as soon as the cold
is contracted. 1t always cures. For
