Five drills at work and rig builders on two other locations testifies to the effect the present bright weather has upon the development of the Crawford field.
 The rains and the floods and ths cold weather caused an almost com plete shutdown in this field, as they did in Oklahoma and Kansas, but with their passing work has been re- sumed with determination to make up for the time that has been lost.
 A letter just received from w. c. Dickenson, an Oklahoma operator who visited this city soon after the bring ing in of the No. 1 we'll of the Clear Creek Company, leaves the matter of his return here still a matter of un- certainty. MT. Dickerson wanted to prospect on the south side of the river, just north of the city, but was unable to get the acreage he desired blocked out. MT Dickenson states that his operations have been delayed by an attack of the grippe and by the weather that he cannot foretell when he will bring in the wells he Is now drilling and that he will not leave them until they are completed. Those who have been engaged in the effort to get MT. Dickenson to pros pect near the city limits are inclined to the belief that a change of senti- ment has taken place in the owners of property in the territory desired by MT Dickenson and that he will be able to secure the acreage he wants now.
 The Prospect Oil & Gas Company has announced that it Is ready to let the contract for drilling so soon as the weather is settled enough for the material to be taken in. The leases of this company are on Arbuckle Is- land, and their development will, of course, be affected by the destruction of the bridge connecting the island with the mainland.
 Just as an illustration of the handi- cap of the weather it is stated that in several places in the Oklahoma and Kansas fields, where coal has to be used in the operation of the drills, that it takes four big mules to haul a single ton of coal over the roads 10 the drills.

ADMITS HE Is THE CHRIST
In answer to the article signed by
Truth" 1 feel in duty bound to ex-
plain my situation. Although it is
the truth, l admit, that the Father
has perhaps made it clear that the
revelation can only be made to the
Christ, that He is the Christ, yet
Christ said to Peter that His Father
had made to him (Peter) the revela-
ton when Peter said to Christ:
''Thou art the Christ
Expecting as consequence, the
next question put will be, who is
he?" 1 might as well admit that the
person 1 know to be the Christ is
none other than myself.
l did not expect the trap, but you
must see if l am to stand by my as
sertion l am forced into the confess
sion. l don't fear the results, for L
know that the truth must prevail. If
by any means l am deceived. no one
will be more contented to know it
than myself.
On Feb. 9, 1915, at my home in
Florida, God told me by revelation
who am, and ever since then my life
has been radiantly happy with the
consciousness of my mission. This
is the first time have told about it,
but tell me, should forever keep 81
lence? l know this, that when the
time arrives God will endow me with
all the power 1 need and that you
will in due time see my mission
commence.
Elijah has preceded me. John

and fulfilled his ministry. was bap-
tized by him and served with him as
