DR. WEITH TALKS ON
PERSONAL SPONSl5lllTY

At the First Presbyterian Church
last night DR.. Weith made an earnest
talk on Personal Responsibility. In
brief Rev. Weith said:
Everyone is responsible Tor himself.
We are not responsible for the condi-
tions into which we are born, but we
are responsible for what we become.
1t is of no use to make the towards
plea and charge to heredity and en-
vironment the shortcomings of our
lives Every soul can rise superior
to these conditions. No one can put
us down if we are determined to go
up. and no one can keep us up if we
will to go down.
Personal ineffciency is caused by
personal unwillingness. Many people
make fair workers when they are told
lust what to do. but the really sue
cessful one masters the business on
his own initiative and he hears the
call, come up higher
The world is hunting for power and
efficiency and is willing to pay the
price. God needs efficient men and
women. He has as little use for a
failure as has the world. We are sec
ond rate Christians because We will
not do the work of first rate one.
Judas went to his own place.
SO you and | go to our own place
God does not damn a soul. The SOU
units itself for life among the pure
and holy so it can only associate Will
its kind. We make our own present
We make our own future. We make
our own hell or heaven.
What is my place?

100000 BARRELS
OIL AT 20 CENTS
Owing to the fact that approximate
~ 1000 barrels of oil day is being
wasted from well No. |, Glover Leaf
lease on the Cimarron, the school land
commissioners decided Wednesday to
offer 10000 barrels of this oil for 29
cents per barrel. The well, when first
brought in, flowed on an average OF
$500 barrels, but was shut down to
1000. The fact that further pinch
ing" would result in the casing being
blown out and destruction of the well
caused the commissioners to recon-
mend to the federal court at Musko-
gee under whose jurisdiction the prop
erty Is at present, that the oil be sold
for this price. The present market
price is 40 cents, but all oil being
sold at this time, according to re-
ports, is bringing 25 to 80 cents.-Ok-

THE DIFFERENCE
A Comparison That Usually Sets
People 20 Thinking.

The other day read the obituaries of
two men had known well. The stories
we're short and briefly related-when they
came into the world and hour they de.
parted; when they moved there and how
many heart broken relatives they left to
morn their loss. In neither case was the
story told. One of the men died poor
and the other was rich. The one had
Zone through life with smile on his face
and kind word for his neiehbor. He
scattering sunshine and helping his com.
munity. To his family he left his life in.
surance and the legacy of good reputa.
ton for fairness, kindness and charity.
The other fellow had been close fsted all
his life. He had toiled and shaved and
brought up his family in almost penury.
He always exacted his pound of flesh in
business transactions and his stony heart
was always closed against sympathy and
good cheer. The only things he had any.
thing to do with were those that piled up
more dollars in his strong box. He pulled
his load of gold to the edge of the Grave
and had to let 60. His gold was all he
had. When his procession was passing
down the street in fancy could hear the
fellows say, "Well, it won't take the
