THE SCR|PTURAL HE'LL ONE
OF FIRE AND BIRTHSTONE
Dr.. Bulgin painted The Abode of the Loft In
Last Nights Sermon.


strongest serman of the series, and
chose the strongest subject lat night
when to big audience of appreciative
listeners he gave them his doctrine OF
a boni fide hell" It's the real thing;
fire, birthstone and all the other ter
rible things which go together to make
the worst place to spend eternity that
human eye can picture.
Only one comfort could We see left
for those whose choice it is as future
residence. That was, in the eternal
fitness of things, the bad man and
worse woman are preparing for it in
this life, and wouldn't feel comfortable
in heaven with the angels. Being nc
half way house, their fate is sealed
Sealed, unless they choose the remedy
which DR.. Bulgin outlined carefully
and in order, SO that there could be
mo mistake.
Before the sermon, however, the
Esong service must be mentioned as be
ling particularly enjoyable. The large
choir of joyful faces lifting up theil
voices in these more joyous songs
with Brother Rose to head them, is q
grand sight and worth paying money
to see, So many requests are made
i that it is impossible to grant them all
One thai Brother Rose never fails tc
sing however, is 'Pm on My Way tc
Heaven Shouting Glory" which is
nightly requested by the boys in the
front row. Tonight, Brother Rose de
scended from the platform and picked
lup the tiniest of them all. Placing hin
where the preacher is wont to stand
| it was demanded of him to sing solo
The little fellows lips quivered, anC
his little face showed stage fright o.
the worst kind; but gathering together
a moral courage lacked by many bis
stout men, his sweet fearful voice
sang: "Oh, Glory Hallelugah, an
on my way to Heaven, shouting Glory
all the way"
All eyes were filled with tears a
this sweet demonstration of a LITTLE
child to bravely do his part, and wha
lesson to the christian man and wo
man who falter and sit idly by, Will,
others do the Lords work.
One of our poets has written some
thing that makes us know through
verse that there is surely whistling il
heaven. Brother Rose also allows hii
choir and his people to whistle thu
pretty melody, that unconseiously th'
busy man and studious boy may whistle
these things on the street as they pass

OKLAHOMA CORN
I0O,O0O,0OO BUSHEL
Santa Fe Railroad Issues Estimate Of
1912 crop.-kaffir Corn Yield for
Season is Placed at Fifty Mil
lion Bushels.

Guthrie, Okla, Nov. 5.-The official
estimate of the Santa Fe Railroad is
Just out and places the yield of the
Oklahoma corn crop for this season at
100,000,000 bushels. The estimate was
compiled from large number of local
estimates made by station agents
along the lines in the state, and is re-
garded as about as good pre-harvest
gauge as could be had. These figures
are compiled by the road for the pur-
pose of ascertaining how much rolling
stock will be required to handle the
output, and, as no incentive to, exag-
geration can be assigned to the work,
the report is causing considerable
pleasure in commercial and industrial
circles, indicating as it does that the
yield is far in excess of their most
sanguine expectations.
Lowest Estimate 100000.
At the present price of corn a crop
of 100,00O,00O bushels in OklahomS
this season would enrich the state by
s65,OO0,0 900 to $7000O,0OO, which is
$20,000,000 in excess of the valuation
of any previous years output. Other
official and semi-offieial reports seem
to corroborate the forecast of the
Santa Fe, and of the half dozen ac-
credited ones so far delivered the low
est does not place the yield below TO-
100000 bushels. the latter figure OF
the Oklahoma Grain Dealers Asso-
citation, who adds the suggestive reser-
vation, "and maybe more" The ma
tural inference from these accredited
forecasts is that Oklahoma is just now
harvesting the largest corn crop in its
history at least 30 per cent larger than
the crop of 1910 and vatly larger than
that of 1911.
Farm Products Worth $2oo,oo0,0oo.
While the Santa Fes corn crop esti-
mate is spectacular, genuine optimis-
tic surprise is furnished by the fore
cast of a $4,000, ,000-bushel crop OF
Kafir corn, which practically assures a
crop 100 per cent in advance of any
previous one and assigns Oklahoma to
second place in the list of American
production, ranking second only to
Kansas.
The estimate of wheat is 25,000,0OO
bushels and cotton 100000 bales.
If these forecasts ON four leading
crops prove approximately correct the
1912 crop production in the state will
exceed 100000, 900.
