In her second lecture on the lyric
poetry of the Bible, Mrs. Barry dis
cussed the processionary ode and the
Psalms used by David at the inau-
guration of Jerusalem as the city of
God
The ode sung by Deborah and Ba-
rak leading the chorus of women and
men, celebrating the victory over ia
ban and Sisera, Mrs. Barry said, is
the finest of the ancient biblical odes
1t has the intense emotional quality
and vivid imagery that makes primi-
tive Hebrew poetry so appealing
The story of the carrying of the
ark OF the Lord to the captured
stronghold of the Jebusites, as told
in second Samuel and Chronicles, was
the background for an interpretative
reading of the xxx, xii cXXXii and
ci Psalms. The last. an expression
of David's sense of responsibility as
a ruler and his consecration Of him
self and his household to the work
inaugurated on this memorable day
Mrs. Barry thought the most beauti-
full of the group and most personal
in significance. She said its preceptS
and ideals of service should be kept
as 'watchmen to the heart" of every
man or woman who have the respon-
sibility of a household or of citi'
zenship. whether the circle of theil

In 1882 Washington Irving, histori-
an, student and statesman, made his
famous Tour of the Plains" en- route
to the Indian wars in the far west
On this trip he camped on the hills
north of the present city of Tulsa, and
surveying the valley of the Arkansas
river below, made the prediction that
here, in this land of milk and honey"
great city would rise. A colossal
monument is to be erected on the
spot where Irving stood, commemorat-
ing his pilgrimage and his prophesy
that came true.
When Tulsa's great convention hall
was completed, the desire to further
advance Tulsa's position as a music
center, gave birth in the Hyechka
Club, to the movement to install in
the auditorium, a pipe organ which
should bel n name and reality, a peo-
pies pipe organ. This organ, paid

GUARANTY
FUND Of BANK

UNDER NEW BANKING LAW De
MANO FOR WARRANTS GREAT.
EO-TWO STATE BANKS TAKEN
IN CHARGE.

Oklahoma City, Okla, April 20
The report of the guaranty fund Of
state banks for the first quarter OF
1915 has been made by the board. II
shows a reduction of $Sl7,033.9O in
the warrant indebtedness, levaing the
total now at $751; $500. 1t is noted
that under the new banking law "A de
mand has been created for warrants
of the fund and that it is easy now
for state banks to secure surety bonds
for public deposits as a result of the
law that permits surety companies to
share in the assets of failed banks
with the guaranty fund.
In his discussion of the situation
p. c. Dings of Ardmore, secretary of
the board. says:
Two banks were taken charge of Wy
the bank commissioner during this
quarter, said banks being the Farmers
and Merchants of Mountain View, and
the Ponca City State Bank of Ponca
City.

From The Daily Item, Nov. 16.
Covering wide variety of ideas
many of them seemingly revolution
airy In their character, Thomas Brooks
Fletcher. noted platform orator, last
night at the Academy of Music held
an audience almost spellbound for two
and a-half hours. The attendance
was very gratifying, being probably
the largest which a lyceum attrac-
tion has ever had here, and filled the
orchestra and parquet of the Academy
10 capacity. Many were also seated
in the balcony in order to hear the
speaker, being unable to get seats
down stairs.
The lecturer has spoken here be-
fore and, although this lecture prob
ably did not take as we'll as the one
ne delivered at the Chautauqua last
spring, the audience seemed immense
ly pleased and was kept in state OF
continual merriment while he was get
ting off some of his brilliant puns and
going over the humorous parts of the
lecture. The fact that he spoke for
two and half hours without the aud
ience getting exceedingly restless is in
dication in itself how we'll his hearers
were pleased. He was more dramatic
than when here formerly, but his
points were brought out Just as
forcibly and his illustrations and anec-
dotes were just as striking as have
ever been heard.
Many Of his ideas on social condi-
tons seemed to border on socialism
and were of revolutionary trend of
thought, but he convinced his hearers
that he was perfectly sincere in his
advocation Of these principles. Many
other parts of lis lecture went over
conditions which have been and are
still being threshed out in the press
and on the lecture platform, without
any seeming change being made.
In closing he paid an eloquent trib-
ute to William Jennings Bryan, 'the
man who was always prepared with
mind, body and morality to meet ey-
cry emergency q eulogism which.
however, was heard without a single
note Of applause. AF@s
