A New Paper
Rev. G. II Ray enters the Journa
listic Field with the "Chicka-
sha Methodist"

Rev. G. II. Ray, the enterpris-
ing pastor of the Methodist church
has launched a new journalistic
venture. The first number Of his
paper, the "Chickasha Methodist
was issued today. It is needless
to say that il will prove a great
help to his church.
In the first issue he says:
The CHICKAsHA METHODIST
makes no claims to literary mer.
it. The editor is a busy pastor
of a large congregation and to at
tempt any felicity Of diction
would be more than his time
would warrant.
Indeed. nominees Of express
ion may often occur, for the pur
pose of this paper is simple and
singular to augment the work
of the pulpit. No two agencies
are more powerful in the forma-
tion of public opinion and in the
development Of character, tnan
the pulpit and the press. AS TO
our pulpit ministrations, we have
reasons to be grateful for the
hearing given us in Chickasha.
Our audiences have been large,
and the people have borne with
our failures patiently. For peo-
pie to be interested in an inter
prise they must know what is
being done. In a church, like
the Methodist church in Chicka-
sha, with a membership Of be
tween five and six hundred per
sons, it is impossible for every
member to keep in touch with
the work through the ordinary
means.
The primary object of this lit
tie paper is to supply the people
with information concerning our
work. Special attention will be
given to the Sunday School and
Epworth League. The various
societies of the church will ap.
point correspondents who will
furnish brief news items from
their respective departments.
Also, the names and addresses OF
new members and strangers in
the city will be published week
ly, as we'll as the names of the
sick. This will render the pas
toral and social work of the
church comparatively easy.
In addition to these phases of
church orz, it is the purpose of
the editor to give brief quota
tions from sermons, extracts
from the writings of the best
authors, literary and scientific
notes and such other items as
may be considered of interest to
our readers.
THE CHICKASHA METHODIST
starts with a large circulation,
nearly all of whom reside in
Chickasha. The subscrip tion
price is only % cents.
We solicit your assistance.

Badly Burned

+. A. Carpenter, moulder at the
Chickasha Iron Works, was a
victim of serious accident about
$50 O'Clock last evening. He was
preparing to build a fire in what is
known at the foundry as the cup
ola. He had tillel it with kind
ling and poured a quart of gaso-
line uponit. The opening below
had become filled up and he went
above..to light it.Not thinking that
gas had generated and filled the
entire structure he put his head in
to the side opening and reached
down to light the material below.
No sooner lid he strike the match
than a terrific explosion occurred,
knocking him over and sending his
hat out at the top Of the flue ten
feet above. He was unconcious
for a few moments.
Mr.. Carpenter was very badly
burned about the face and throat.
His sleeve was partly burned off
but the flames did not reach his
body. He suffered very greatly
but was able TO resume work today.

Council Party Had a Most Enjoy
able Time on Its Trip to
The Worlds Faic
UTAH'S EXHIBIT EXCELLENT.
While it is Not Snowy II Is Superior
To Many from an Educational
Standpoint.

I'VE had the most enjoyable trip OF
our lives and there WAS not single
thing to mar the pleasure OF the party
during the entire time" Such is the
unanimous opinion OF all the members
OF the city council who returned from
their 81. Louis junket yesterday after
noon. Every member Of the party,
which was composed OF 10 oouncilmen
and their wives, and Judge c. b.
Diehl Capt, Burbdge and G. r. Alley,
who had charge OF the party for the
railroad company, expressed them-
selves as thoroughly enjoying every
minute Of the time.
Councilman Dean was the only mem
Der who was the least bit indisposed
during the trip and he was not laid up
until the party started home Nothing
but words of praise were heard from
an in regard to the great fair, which
one Of the members described as 1.-THE
giandest the world ever had" and all
were unanimous IN the decision that
Utah has a decidedly credltable exhibit.
In speaking Of the fair and Utah's
exhibit today Councilman Wells said
u can't md words adequate to express
the grandeur and immensely of the fair
1t is beyond description. Utahs ex-
hblt Is iine IN every respect but is
probably not extensive enough. Ii is
not as snowy. perhaps, as other exhlb-
It's, but from an educational value II Is
superior to a great many Of the other
states Our dried fruit, honey and silk
exhibits are very fine. Our mining ex-
hibit Is not as glittering and snowy as
that OF some of the other states but
from an educational point OF view II is
n leader, The model concentrating
plant Is one Of the most Interesting and
novel features Of the fair and when Il
runs u attracts a great deal OF inter-
est. "Utahs educational exhibit Ia at
tracing more attention from the teach.
ers who visit the fair than from the
general public, and its educational val
ue Is greatly appreciated by those in
terested I'm teaching particularly. / was
Informed by Prof Cummings, who has
charge Of our exhibit that quite an
honor has already been bestowed upon
the exhibit. The University OF Chicago
sent one OF its teachers to the fair with
Instructions to write up the best edu-
cational exhibit there. After thorough
ly considering all Of the exhibits the
teacher Informed Prof Cummings that
she had decided that Utah's exhibit was
In her Judgment entitled TO the write
up as she considered II the best from
an educational standpoint"
on the return trip the party stopped
nj Kansas City, Denver and Colorado
Springs. At the latter point the mem
bers OF the party visited Manltou and
the Garden OF the Gods. Councilman
Wood and wife are the only ones who
did not return with the party. They
stopped at Lawrence. Kansas, where
they will visit for a month.
