the troops so strict is the sur
veillance throughout France that
half a million soldiers are used as
sentinels guarding the roads to all
towns. This army is well disciplined
and can be gathered on short notice,
and rushed TO the fighting lines. The
most striking feature of the ordinary
battle line in France now is the
silence and its apparent desertion.
Except during the cannonading, there
is only the occasional screech of a
shell. One hundred thousand fighting
men may be within field glass range.
but throughout the day, scarcely one
is visible.

REV.MASTERS
To HEAD THE
UNIVERSITY
LOCAL PASTOR HoNoRED BY A
UNANIMOUS VOTE OF BOARD
IN SESSION AT OKLAHOMA
CITY. HAS ACCEPTED.

Rev. F. NJ. Masters, pastor of the
Broadway Baptist church, has been
rendered the position of President of
the Baptist State University at Shaw
nee, and has accepted. A meeting of
the board was called for Oklahoma
City, and he was chosen for this i'm
portant position without a dissenting
voice. He will probably assume his
duties the first of the year. The po-
sition carries with it salary of $500
per year.
Rev. Masters has been pastor of the
Broadway Baptist church for the past
five years, He has established a repu-
tation as builder and since he has
had charge of local affairs the Broad
way Baptist church has undergone a
wonderful change. Judge Harreld, one
of the trustees of the university, was
present at the meeting and stated that
he never saw such enthusiasm dis
played as when Rev. Masters name
was proposed. The baptists of the
state realize that he is man of pro-
found learning and broad attainments,
and there is no doubt but what he is
the right man for the right place.
The Baptists of this city and the
public generally will regret to see Rev.
Masters and his family leave Ardmore,
but they congratulate him upon the
great honor conferred. He has work /,
ed increasingly for the success of the /
broadway Baptist church and his sue /
cess in that direction has been mar
velous. No intimation has been re-
ceived yet as to who will succeed Rev.
Masters here.

AID bELC|ANS'
CONTRIBUTION
NEXT SUNDAY
GOVERNOR CRUCE ISSUES CALL
TO PEOPLE OF STATE TO At
TEND CHURCH SUNDAY AND
CONTRIBUTE TO FUND.

Governor Cruce has issued a call
to the people of the state to attend
church Sunday and contribute their
money to aid the suffering non
combatants in war stricken Belgium.
He has appointed Governor elect
Robert L. Williams as chairman of
the committee to receive these funds
and hopes the people of the state
viii respond most literally.
A telephone communication was
received here today from headquar-
ters asking that the people of Ard
more respond literally to this call
and make this the greatest church
going day of the year.
All over the United States this
movement is taking form to aid the
stricken Belgians, and it is the de-
sire of the governor that Oklahoma.
as a state, be ranked among the
first in her contributions.
The pastors of all churches have
been requested to make a special
effort to make the offerings as large
as possible in order that food supplies
may be furnished the sufferers in
the war zone. They especially urge
that every member of their respect
i've churches make a special effort to
with the request OF the gov
ernor and make the offering from
Ardmore second to none in accord
ance with population in the state.
