The Vinita daily chieftain. [volume] (Vinita, Indian Territory [Okla.]) 1902-1913, 1911-03-17

Rev Charles Aked, John D. Rookie,
feller's pastor, has announced to his
congregation his probable resignation,
and in so doing he gave expression to
his disappointment at the failure of
the church to live up to its possibili-
ties. As there was no lack of money
in the ohurch-Rockefelle himself
could have supplied, without sacrifice,
all the money the pastor could have
used-the explanation must be found
in lack of inclination. If the pastor is
deeply interested in applied christian
ity he cannot be blamed for desiring
to escape from the pestilential moral
atmosphere which surrounds the oil
magnate. The only criticism is that
he did not anticipate this very condi-
ton. If he viii re-read Christ's explain
alton of the parable of the Sower he
may have new appreciation OF the
