INTEREST
CONTINUES
TO GROW

The interest in the meetings at the
Christian church is still increasing.
Although yesterday was Monday, both
auditoriums were well filled at the
evening service. At 3 o'clock in the
afternoon Mr.. Mullins gave his first
address to the Sunday schol workers.
Rev. G. Lyle Smith in referring to the
service said, Bro. Mullins had not
been speaking five minutes till | real

Of the evenings discourse. The evan

There may be infidels on earth. but
there are none in hell. The Bible says
that every knee shall bow and every
tongue confess that Jesus is the
Christ A man may refuse to believe
and confess Christ here. but at the
Judgment he can no longer disbelieve
and he must confess him. II win then
be too late to help the confessor. His
destiny shall have been sealed. How
much better it would be for You to
confess him here and then Christ viii
confess you before the Father and His

head OF tbs list
SO much for that The next ques-
tion is In administering the desired
drubbing TO the Shawnee clan The
same listless practice was in evidence
before the Enid game that was exhib-
tied last night, If the team realized
the Importance of the game and acted
upon that realization, they should be
going at top speed now and bowling
the scrubs over like ten pins. As CON
ditions exist, the scrubs made first
down on them several times last night
and in their exhibition game last Fri

the first half, during which time a
large score should have been piled up

If the football practice exhibited by
the Chiekasha high school warriors on
the Eighth street field last night Is
a criterion of the game they viii put
up against Shawnee next Friday. they
will probably come home looking like
large mud pie after a heavy raia-
storm The material is there and It is
10 be regretted that the team as a
whole is not getting the benefit Of all
the good there is in it, Football is dis
tinctly not a one mans game and un-
less every part Of said team works
ia unison. the machine is nix. Also
to keep the machine in good working
order, every part must be on hand
regularly and assist the other parts in
perfecting the mechanism. When one
part Is absent, il throws the others
out Of their stride and It's all hands

Last night the men. some OF them
exhibited about the same interest in
the game that they would If they were

this in face OF the fact that the crucial
game Of the season is but three DAYS
away
The line worked well, with some ex-
ceptions Ward at end was plainly
loafing, and failed by a good margin to
deliver the brand OF football of which
he is capable Whitaker was not

made known. and Hamlltol, after a
few rushes. retired to the gym. Pool,
on account of a sore finger, did not

go at that, The team is not being
driven as hard as they should be on
the eve of game that means as much
as the Shawnee battle. Heflner is
picking up TO an extent, while Vel
borne and Sales did good, consistent
work last night Goode was in the
game as usual and it is to be regretted
that the other members of the team
cannot generate the same brand Of en-
thusiasm that he displays.

Halloween Poem

II was on clear October Night.
When all the stars were shining bright.
Then Besnie said to sister Sue,
Come here and III tell YOU what we'll do.
Wen goto Grandpa and ask Uncle Lin.
1t we can't have big pumpkin;
And 50 tkipping along hold oil hands,
AND guilty making up their plans.
It's Halloween tonight they said,
Ana well get dumpkin and scare
Uncle Ted.
Wen cut out its eyes, its mouth aud noses
And talk..care not to drop it on our toes
When this is done we'll get large Whale
Shirt,
And be carlul that we cover up Gus feet.
When that is done well get candle
white
And put it in our pumpkin for light
They fixed up everything they had
planned
And then taking their pumpkin in their
hand,
They stepped out in the starlight of the
night.
And before them stood figure all white.
A blazing lantern on its head,
A thing TO look at and to dread.
Then dropping their pumpkins they ran
away
Not STOPPING tn see what it had to saw.
They reached their home aud weut ty bed
And quickly covered up their heads,
They were bath afraid to move or look,
For fear they mightsee that awful spook.
