IMPORTANCE
OF MAN IN THE
SIGHT Of COD
EVANGELIST WILLIAMS IN HIS
SERMON LAST NIGHT PICTURED
GREATNESS OF GOD IN HIS
CREATION.

Last night although it rained, a
fair-sized congregation listened to
DR.. NJ. B. Williams deliver perhaps
his best sermon SO far during the
union revival being conducted in the
big tabernacle. DR.. Williams has no
rainy day sermons but believes in
giving his best to those who brave
the elements to hear him preach.
The evangelist was in a happy but
thoughtful mood, and for fifty-ive
minutes continuous rain of words
and sentences fell from his lips, while
his congregation sat motionless and
enraptured at his magic thoughts.
His subject was: Man. He used for
his text Psalms S:4. What is man,
that thou art mindful of him." He
said in part as follows:
IL believe one reason men do not
serve God more is because they don't
know how vast and great He is. To
a great many people, those that serve
the flesh, God is merely an abstrac-
ton, a figure of speech. So many
say, 4 am so busily engaged at. my
work, making a living for myself and
family, that | haven't time to think
of the one you call God This class
of persons and these opinions are
the greatest opposing forces to Chris
tianity that we have to deal with.
Therefore, it is up to us to intro
duce God to such people and to cause
them to become thoroughly acquaint-
ed with Him.
81 want you to 60 with me tonight
on trip for the purpose of making
a study of some of the wonderful
things of God. Let's observe some
of the works that He has wrought"
Here the speaker took his congrega-
tion on an imaginary trip to the
heavens. In passing, the moon is
observed as great ball of fire, about
which there is much speculation as to
its origin. 1t is noticed that the
moon is uninhabited and is barren of
However, God made it
and no doubt for some- purpose. The
different planets were observed in
passing, and especially the planet
Mars. Scientists have discovered that |
it is inhabited That it is world of |
land and seas, mountains and plains |
By the use of the powerful telescope, |
man on the earth can see when the !
seasons change on Mars, also that |
great artificial waterways, such as !
canals, have been constructed, and /

ARDMORE TEAM
PRAISED FOR
|TS GOOD WORK
CARTER COUNTY SUPPLIED MORE
THAN A THIRD OF THE NEW
CLASS - McALESTER is VERY
HOSPITABLE.

McAlester, Okla, April 26.-The
Scottish Rite program opened yes
terday with a class of $50. Ardmore
and Carter county furnished more
than one-third of the total number of
the class Grand Commander Geo.
f. Moore of the southern jurisdic-
tion was present and participated in
the comforting of the degrees. The
masters degree was exempified by the
Ardmore team, whose rendition was
highly complimented Degrees from
the Nth to 18th have also been con-
ferred. McAlester has furnished
special entertainment for all Masonic
visitors, and brilliant affairs have
been given in honor of their wives
and sweethearts.
Having Some Fun.
The Ardmore team arrived Sunday
afternoon in bad form, under the SUI.
pervision of Otis Smith, high sheriff,
who was kept busy in taking care
of the violators of the trip. Three,
five and seven were administrated
with alarming regularity. Class III
rector Cox ignored the rest of the
team by trying to close with a short
cut. 7 he Writ contingent faded away
when the Bertillon Identification room
was reached, and they were later To-
Gated, locked in their rooms ut the
Busby' hotel. A few of the young men
were caught trying to firt with the
inmates of the women's department
while trying to purchase some of
their fancy articles, and but for the
quick action of the cooler heads
they would have likely been thrown
into the dungeon.
Warden Dick, having been advised
that a gang would arrive from Carter
county, proceeded to assign each of
the Ardmore bunch to their respect
i've cells when they visited the peni-
tentiary yesterday morning, but was
finally persuaded to desist by some
of the Ardmore contingent's special
friends, who are sojourning at Dicks
boarding house at the present time.

district of the Ozark mountains in
