part of a score Of depositors was
enough to start a run on any bank.
And yet, where millions talked of ru-

October and November, the same mill

of which panic was the last logical
outcome, just so fast as the obvious

Rev. Mr.. McCorkle, of Norman, Ok

at the Christian church yesterday.
He is an orator, a rhetorician and a
thinker, with almost none of the

thought of his morning sermon was
that there is no progress without OPP
