A G REAT

Evangelist Marshall Explains Sym

Choir Platform Enlarged =
To Aid S. S. wsrkers

Last night at the Christian church
Evangelist Marshall delivered his
great sermon. ~The Golden Candle
stick" to an unusually appreciative
audience. Il never saw such attention
given to a sermon since l have been
in Chickasha," said a prominent citi-
zen last night after the services. 1T
was worth going miles to hear said
another.
The evangelist used a chart to illus
trate his sermon, and said in part:
''The Golden Candlestick was first
used in the tabernacle built by Moses
under Divine direction In the Holy
Place was the table Of shew bread
altar incense and candlestick. These
we're later placed in Solomon's tenn
pie. The temple and all its contents
have passed away They were only
the pattern like unto the true. so IA.
stead Of the Holy Place made with
hands we have the church, Jesus, the
High Priest and his followers. male
and female, are His priests. Instead
Of the altar of incense we have the al.
tar Of prayer; instead Of the table with
Twelve loaves we have the table with
one loaf: instead Of the golden candle
stick. we have the Bible as our lamp
and light.
"The Bible. like the candlestick. has
seven branches, viz: Law. Prophets
and Psalms in the Old Testament, and
Gospels. Acts. Epistles and Revelation
in the New Testament" The sermon
was Illuminating and easily followed.
The choir platform has been enlarg
ed till it now viii accommodate nearly
100 singers. The juniors occupied the
new addition and tonight will give a
special song.
The school of methods in Sunday
school work will begin its sessions next
week. The different pastors and sun
day school superintendents of the city
have signified their willingness to co
operate in this very worthy and much
needed work. Mr.. Mullins. who vii
have that work in charge. is vel
equipped for his work, and those who
attend these sessions vii no doub
get such a vision. of the possibilities O
modern Sunday school as viii vastl.
increase their efficiency in all natter
of religious education.
Mr.. Marshall will preach tonight oi
"Our Mediator" and he and Mr.. Mui
Inns win sing, Were You There?"

NO QUORUM
IS PRESENT
AT MEETING

The meeting of the Retail Mer-
chants association flashed in the pan
last night for want Of a quorum and
though only one more member was re-
quired to complete the quorum. no bus
mess could be transacted by The asso-
citation.
One of the propositions that was
scheduled for discussion was the re-
mittance Of train fares to out Of town
customers, and though it is believed
that most OF the merchants are in
favor Of the proposition, no action
could be taken at last nights meeting.
1T is to be regretted that we cannot
always get a quorum present at the
meetings, said J. f. Schow president
OF the association, this morning. Some
Of them say, oh just go ahead and
take whatever action you see fit and
when the members present pass some
motion that they are opposed to, they
say, It's not legal You didn't have
quorum. That's what we are up
against and until the members get to
gether and take some concentrated
action, nothing can be done"

phase Of the Mexican situation and the
ooncensus of opinion was that the
United States government should not

southern republic.
Although the cabinet members were
reticent as to the meeting it became
known that all favored steps which
would convince Huerta that the United
States was earnest in its demands that
he eliminate himself from the situa-

embargo on arms the cabinet members
expressed various opinions. Some Of
them recognized in this method prac-

difficulty but there was no final de-
cision on the point.

SAFETY OF

London, Nov. l2.--Lessons from the
Titanic and volturno disasters were
drawn today in the opening sessions of
the International Conference on Safety
at Sea. The United States was REPRE-
sented at the gathering by Represen-
tatiye Joshua w. Alexander Of Mis-
souri,, chairman of the house commit
tee Of merchant marine and fisheries,
chairman of the delegation; Eugene T..
Chamberlain, commissioner Of naviga-
ton, secretary. and Capt. George d.
Cooper, United States navy, treasurer.
AS had been expected. one of the first
matters which came up for considera-
tion today was tire recommendation
that wireless apparatus be required on
all ships in foreign trade that carry
fifty or more persons, including pas
sengers and crew. Ia this connection
it was deemed advisable, according to
report read at today's session, that
that wireless on all ships should be
able to transmit messages at least 100
nautical miles. and that auxiliary pow
er supply for working the wireless,
must be provided, independent Of the
vessels main electrical power plant,
to send messages at least 100 miles for
four hours OF more
On the question Of requiring at least
two operators, it was expected that
some difference OF opinion would arise
Such a recommendation. it was
thought. would pass in regard to ships
maintaining a constant service ano
carrying 100 or more passengers. Il
was thought that one first or SECOND
grade wireless operator and one cargo
operator, or watcher, would be recon
mended for cargo boats. All these rec
omendations were heartily supported
by the delegation from the United
States. 1t was expected that some
sort of resolution praising Capt. Incl
of the Volturno would be unanimousi,
agreed upon, to commend him for hi
gallantry when his ship burned at Sc;
some weeks ago
The story OF the Volturno disaste
was expected to be wildly retold il
support Of the recommendation 70
better fire fighting facilities on al
boats. The complete uaited State
delegation appointed by presiden
Wilson is made up of the following:

LAW ENFORCEMENT
