Born With Statehood.

The sentiment is fast growing
among the delegates that the Bap.
tist State University should date its
birth the day President Roosevelt
signs the Oklahoma Statehood Proc.
lamation. November 16. That with
the birth Of statehood the contracts
should be signed and the first break
ing of the University grounds be
done, with appropriate ceremony
Starting on an even date wiI1
statehood would be an everlasting
source of qualification and benefit
to this great institution. To say
that the university had its birth
with the state would be an impor.
tant matter of history in the genera.
tions to come.

OKLAHOMA BAPTIST JOURNAL
A CLEAN, ABLY EDITED RELIC
ioUS WEEKLY MAKES AP.
PEARANcE AT ADA.

Vol. I. No. /, OF the Oklahoma
Baptist Journal made its appearance
in Ada Wednesday. Oct. 80, and Will
be presented to the State Conven.
tion for endorsement at the present
session.
The publication Is issued oy the
Ada Daily and Weekly News, and
its temporary staff are: A. NJ. Crox.
ton, editor; T. II. Harrell, associate
editor, and Carlton Weaver, bust.
ness manager. The promoters have
the endorsement and backing of the
religious and commercial interest OF
Ada, and from general appearance,
the new religious Weekly will rank
with any in the southwest. This
seems to be n great opportunity
for the launching of strong Bap-
tist raper in the new state and ac-
tion by the convention along this
line is looked or at this time. From
the healthy appearance Of the Okla
homa Baptist Journal, It should be
success from the very start. Ger
tainly the Baptist OF oklahoma need
a publication in sympathy with
their work.
