room is supplemented however. with
practical training along industrial and
cher lines. For instance, the boys
are given courses in practical farm
worl. on farms which have been pur.
chased and are operated by the homes,
livestock production, carpentexing, tin
work, plumbing, laundrying, and the
like, as well as courses in business
for those who show special adapta.
ton for that line Of work.
The school room work for the girls
is supplemented with the study of mu-
sic, domestic science, stenography and
the like. Large attention Is given to
the religious life Of the children, also,
and this is given emphasis in the
daily chapel services, and In the Sun
day School and preaching services on
the Sabbath.
The orphan children respond readily
to the opportunities and privileges at.
forded them and there have gone out
from these institutions a number OF
the most useful men and women In
the various states. While taking pride
in the accomplishments of the boys
and girls who are IN the homes at
present, as we'll as those who have
gone out from there to make their own
way in the world, the superintendent
and teachers are saddened by the fact
that there are so many Other helpless
children who ought to be aided but

Does your heart go out to the
worthy boy and girl bereft by the
Grim Reaper of father and mother,
and left alone in the world without
the fostering care of those to whom
they are naturally most dear in the
world?
Then you will understand why
Southern Baptists have established
orphanages in fifteen states, are
caring for 5000 such children in those
homes and training them for useful
lives in the world.
But the need is far greater than the
ability of these institutions to meet
it. While five thousand children are
being cared for in these crphanages,
there are on the waiting list of these
institutions fully five thousand more
equally worthy, fatherless and moth
erless boys and girls who want the
privileges which these orphanages af-
ford but which must be denied them
for the present because there is no
room with which to shelter more Of
them.
So when the Baptist rs Million Cam
paign was launched for the enlarge
men Of the work of the denomination
along general lines in an effort to
meet growing spiritual needs in the
homeland and throughout the world,
the sum of $4,700000 was apportioned
to the orrhanages, this sum to cover
program Of five years, as the $75,-

in the South without single Baptist
church or meeting house, 1t has been
ascertained by the campaign head
quarters. BY reason of the large num-
Der of public officials residing there,
and the large number Of people who
go there from every section of the
county to attend the sessions of the
various courts, pay their taxes and
the like it is regarded that the county
seat towns are of especial Importance
and it is hoped that before the next
five years have passed there will be
an active Baptist church in every
county-seat in the South.

able number, when the vast territory
to be served is considered it has been
found that fully 1000 extra men and
women are needed at once, for in ad.
dition to reaching the people who are
not christians there are. many weak,
struggling churches which need assist.
ance and whose members need devel
opment. In the several states of the
Southern Baptist convention, for in.
stance, there are 5000 churches with
membership of many thousand which
give but very little to any interest of
the denomination and which are doing
but very small things for the uplift Of
their communities.
In addition to these very weak
churches, many of which have no pas.
tor there are in the various states a
total Of 1858 churches which have
preaching services only once month,
5000 churches which have services
only once month, and only about
1900 full time churches. Part of the
81 100000 apportioned for state mis-.
mions will go to the Strengthening OF
the weak churches and the bringing OF
them to full-time pastorates where
possible.

THIS is ONE OF THE PRESSING
STATE MISSION PROBLEMS
IN THE SOUTHLAND.
THE SITUATION is OUTLINED
Baptist rs Million Campaign Has Ap-
portioned $11,0O0,ooo To Be En-
pIoyed During the Next Five
Years in Meeting Need. ~

Within the eighteen states compris-
ing the territory of the Southern Bap-
fist convention are 10 100000 white peo-
pie who are not only not identified
with any church, but who do not claim
to be christians, according to informa-
ton gathered by the Baptist rs Mil
lion Camapign. To try and reach these
people with the gospel is one of the
aims of the campaign and to meet the
problem the state mission organiza-
ton in the various states will set
themselves. To help these organiza-
tions in meeting that problem the sum
of $11,000,0O0 has been apportioned
from the total Of s75,000,000 that is
sought for all purposes, and during the
next five years the state mission
forces will seek to reach these mil
lions of people right here at home with
the gospel and enlist them in some
phase of christian work.
According to this same source of in.
formation, it is learned that there are
1891 towns and villages in the South
with population of 200 or more in
which there are no Baptist church or
CARNATIONS or no Baptist houses OF
worship. Inasmuch as these towns in.
.fluence more or less the surrounding
territory an effort will be made to
reach them and the territory sur.

CITY BASE BALL
LEAGUE IN PROCESS
OF ORGANIZATION

Agitation in favor of the organl-
zation of city baseball league in
Chickasha is daily growing strong
err.
Opinions as expressed among fan
dom are that no other year has been
so promising for successful city
league as the present season. The
national outdoor sport is being re-
vived all over the nation and, ac-
cording to the belief Of many, city
league would create unprecedented
interest this summer. Before the
outbreak of the war, Chickasha
bosated of one of the best city
leagues in Oklahoma. Heavy sched-
ules were played, and the league
received strong support from the
townspeople.
Let's revive that old city league"
said a prominent local man and
baseball fan this afternoon, "We
have an abundance of preferable
material in Chickasha and several
teams of good pastimers could be
organized here in a short time. The
merchants and business men OF the
city will doubtless give support
to the movement: Somebody start
the ball rolling"
Three "Nnesv Ready.
Three teams have already been
organized and are ready to put up
their wares in a city league. The
Rock Island aggregation, which has
always been a strong bunch of dia.
mond artists, is back into the har'
ness and have fast team in the
field. Coach Powers Chickasha
high school team would enter the
circuit should a city league be Or
ganized, Captain Lee Adams says.
Although the high school nine is
composed of small men, the Powers
men would be keen opposition and
would make strong bid for the
pennant.
There are consistent rumors Of
another team being organized. Bill
Bailey, of the Liberty drug store,
is promoting the organization of the
fourth team. He urges that all in
terested in securing berth on
fast team, see him at the Liberty.

 SOLD FUR B|G MATCH

TOLEDO, May 17--Althoush the heavyweight championship battle be- tween Willard and Dempsey is nearly seven weeks away, Tex Rickard. pro moter of the contest, announced to- night that virtually all of the s6O, tickets. the choice ringside seats, had been sold. The number of these res ervations had exceeded all expecta- tions. The tickets will be mailed to purchasers Monday. The number Of S60 seats is limited to 2,50o.
 Officials of the Detroit Athletic club placed an order for five hundred $6O seats. while the E,lks of Detroit re- quested five thousand seats of various prices. The Detroit lodge will bring 5000 members to the contest in a spe- cial boat.
 With a party of friends, Dempsey and Manager Jack Kearns motored along the shores of Lake Erie and Maumee Bay this afternoon, in search of a training camp for the heavyweight challenger. One particularly favored is on Maumee bay, about mile from the site of the arena It is former club house of fourteen rooms, and is situated within a stones throw of the bay, the fishing and swimming facIil- ties proving an alluring attraction to Dempsey.
 Karns announced that he would close a. deal Monday and start work on the construction of an outdoor gym nasium, so Dempsey can settle down to his training grind.
 The heavyweight challenger was de lighted with the proposed camp. He was so enthused that he told friends that he wished tomorrow was the fourth of July, and that he was being called into the ring to face Willard.
 The place is big enough for me to entertain a lot of friends, and I know I shall enjoy every minute Dempsey said. T won't come into town unless it's absolutely necessary. When I am not on the road or working in the gymnasium, I spend my time fishing and later swimming"
 Rickard postponed his departure for New York tonight until tomorrow. He expects to return to Toledo about the middle of the week to complete the re- maining details for the championship battle
