It is understood that the recent action
OF the Santa Fe in leasing, with option
to purchase. the Oklahoma Central rail-
road, is a step to establish a through
trunk line between the coal fields Of
Oklahoma and connection with its
system in that state and Port Arthur or
Sabine on the gulf coast of Texas The
Oklahoma Central runs from Chickasha
to Lehigh, q distance of 100 miles. BY
extending the line southeast to Paris,
a connection would be obtained with
the gulf division of the Santa F'e, which
runs to Dallas. The Santa Fe already
has a line which runs from Galveston
to Ore City, 307 miles.
The existing gap between Ore City
and Lehigh could be filled by the con-
struction Of about 225 miles of road.
Besides giving q new outlet for the coal
In Oklahoma, 1t would mean the OPEN

Pratt circuit. 1t is a rich wheat
country, and this year the farmers
have bountiful crops. Rev. Brown
pointed out to his farmer parishioners
how they should show in a substan-
tial way their gratitude for this fat
year.
The call was made for a gift Of 100
acres of wheat. each farmer being
asked to give one or more acres. the
yield from this to go to the church.
Al Yeager of Ash Valley headed 1t oil
with a pledge of five acres. Others
are coming through likewise.
AS the wheat is promising to make
an average OF 80 bushels per acre,
that means the equivalent Of $50
bushels or 500 worth of wheat from
those pledging five acres.

on his circuit, and the 100 acres he
has called for would be only a little
over one acre per member. The
