HOW TO HELP THE JEFFS IN
THEIR WORK.

Editor Jeffs: I have been reading
The Jeffs for about eight months and
am convinced that WatsOn's earnest
and untiring efforts are all unselfish
and are for the uplift of humanity,
especially for the dOwntrOdden and
oppressed poor Watson has his
enemies; so had Christ His enemies,
and so will every other man who
fights evil and wrongdoing.
Has anybody ever known man
who so fearlessly attacks all the
wrong-doers in politics, in church, in
state, government, or what not?
Brethren, let us uphold his hands let
us help him further this fight. Let
us help in the good work that Daddy
Jim is doing.
How can we do this? One way is
to increase the circulation of The
JeffersOnian. Let each subscriber get
at least one other to subscribe. After
you are through reading The jeff,
hand it to your neighbor and you
will find that ere long he will sub
scribe. I have added two to the list
in the last few days by so doing.
By doubling the circulation of the
paper, the good that Watson and

pers of the age. How much I en-
joyed reading the editorial notes of
the young editor, J. D. Watson, in
the last jeff. I hope he will be thor
oughly prepared to receive the mantle
when it falls from your shoulders.
God speed the day when you can
start daily paper, so that you can
"shoot down" the lies as fast as they
come out. God bless that. noble
woman, Mrs. Lytle; may her days be
long and happy, and every employee
connected with The Jeffs, from the
humblest to it's chief editor, Mr.. Wat
son. Many prayers go up for you
daily and God will guide you to the
end. Happy Christmas for The Jeffs.
Sincerely and faithfully,
P. P. JENNINGS.

Let us give Watson a Christmas
present Of 10000 subscribers during
Christmas week and by so doing rest
assured that we are furthering the
cause of Christ more than the pockets
of Watson, for if money was the
aim of Watson he would cease pub
fishing The Jeffs and practise law
and double his income by the thou
sand
Friends, ask your neighbors to
subscribe. Let us surprise Watson

"Thc Test in Christian Life"

This subject was discussed by Mrs.
Mosely and Darlington (White) before
the missionary society OF the ST. Paul
Baptist church last Monday evening.
Out of the fulmes of their souls they
spoke, and the hearts of all were made
glad. 1t will be a sac. sad day. both
in church and State when the white
people discontinue their work among
us. for like that passage in scripture.
without me We can do nothing" and
without them we would not only do
nothing but we would be nothing. YES
! am praying that the time will never
come when their advice and help can't
be had. for we need it,
Let those of our race that's cooking
for the white people learn to do their
work well, and those who are taking
care of the white children use no bad
language before the child. but better
not use it at all, and let the colored
women take care OF themselves and
strive to be clean and tidy ana go at
your work with pleasure. put i'm your
time. don't waste nor st"a! the .h!mG&
in your care, but let their interest be
yours. And let the young negro get
out OF the pool room and loafmg
around the station and other public
places, and get a job and go to work.
and quit finding fault with white
people, attend to your own business
and have manners, lift your hat to all.

already decided upon, are as follows:

sacrifices of the women of the Con-
federacy who, by their constancy, un-
der tAe trials and sufferings of war
by their inspiring sympathy with the
men at the front by their tender min

and by their amterial aid and unwav-

have won the undying love and graft

have bcuueathed to their children from
generation TO generation the priceless
heritage of their memory

They put their trust i'm God. They
gave their men to the war. and checred
them on to immortal deeds and en-
durance and to death They minis

the dying. They braved unspeakable
dangers in their defenseless homes.
They welcomed poverty as a decora-

tion they inspired the rebuilding of
states. They have adorned the whole
land with monuments to their fallen
heroes.

all our crops. and there have beer
very few seasons when we have had
entire crop failures. As before men
toned corn is our staple crop, and
corn means economical feeding of cat
tie and hogs. and as we are located
within easy distance Of Kansas City
and st. Louis, our products and live
stock can be shipped at nominally low
rates to the afore mentioned disburs-
ing markets.
These characteristics make the
northeastern portion of Oklahoma the
most desirable of all sections of our
grand state To any of our readers
whose eyes may light on this article,
we would call their serious attention
to this practical feature.
To the homeseeker whose ideals are
high. but whose capital is not large,
and whose tastes are simple, this
ought to meet all his requirements. II

his inclinations are to surround him

is no soil better adapted to their rails

raspberries also flourish. For this
kind of fruit has a splendid local mar

more and more a successful enter

lots for residences are selling "like

Take Vinita and its surroundings
and we have the finest outlook in all
Oklahoma In rultltudlnous ways we
are wonderfully favored. There is no
finer agricultural land anywhere to
be found than that which surrounds
vinita for from thirty to forty miles.
Some Of the finest corn, our staple
crop, Of SO high grade that Illinois,
Iowa and Nebraska, cannot excel it,

and not only this. but the various
small grains flourish, and vegetables
of every description indigenous to the
country may be raised here in great
quantities. and perfection.
At present writing homeseekers are
arriving in large numbers, and are
not only inspecting our agricultural,
commercial and social conditions, but
are buying up lands and city lots on
the right hand and the left. They see
for themselves that this country is
the peer of any of the states, and
more, that there are advantages here
that are not possessed by any other
of the central and northern states.
Take the climate: While the farm
er of the north and northwest has but
short season in which to do his
plowing, here there are rare instances
when the tiller of the soil may not
plow all through the winter months,
and thus have everything ready for
carly spring planting and sowing. It
is not stretch of the imagination to
assert that we have a climate that is
very equable. and more radiant and
than may be found in any
of the surrounding states. The rain
