And YOU say-"Whats the use?"
Isn't 1T worth while protecting your mother wife, or

Hot Blast Of Volcanoes.

Writing in the Monthly Weather
Review, George N. Cole sets forth
detailed arguments to prove that the
hot blast which swept over the city
of st. Pierre during the eruption of
Mont Pelee, as we'll as similar blasts
in connection with the eruption of We
suvius that destroyed POmpeii and
Herculaneum, the eruption of Taal,
Sakurajima, etc, derived its heat from
the sudden compression of the air sur
rounding the volcano, and not from
conditions in the volcano itself. In
other words, 1t was not, according to
this hypothesis, an outpourlhg of hot
crater gases that caused the destruc-
tion, but the dynamic heating of the
air attending the propagation of the
explosion wave. Mr.. Cole cites num-
Der of interesting observations at st.
Pierre after the Martinique disaster
that seems to support this idea.-

FEW CIRCUIT RIDERS LEFT
Picturesque Figures Of the Religious
Life Of the Rural Districts Are
Rapidly Passing.

The circuit rider. that most pic
the country In the rural districts, is
! passing away almost as rapidly as Is
the cowboy. In the earlier life Of the
country, with his saddlebags, his
tracts and his Bible, travelling on
horseback through the wilderness, he
was vital factor in the life Of the in
habltants along the frontiers and in
the sparsely settled districts. Without
him many community would have
heard no preaching from years end to
years end unless 1t were from the lips
Of lay exhorter; many bride would
have felt herself but half married with
no minister to perform the ceremony,
and the dead would have been laid to
rest without religions comfort to the
survivors.
The circuit rider OF the early days,
though his visits might be few and far
between was nevertheless an integral
part in the religious and social life of
the communities on his circuit. His
coming was eagerly expected and the
pioneers In the wilderness were loath
to see him go.
The rapidlty with which he is disap-
pearing may be gained from study
of the circuit system in rural Method
ism as shown by the annual conference
minutes, using the number of churches
per charge as a basis. OF the rural
charges $3.50, or 81 per cent, are sta
tions; 1924, or 20 per cent, are cir
cults having two churches; 1920 have
three churches to a circuit; 815 have
four; 2S2 have five, while but 1T cir
cults, or per cent, have more than
five churches to a circuit. In other
words more than half of the rural
Methodist churches now have minis
tiers who do not have TO devote part
of their time to other churches. The
figures show that 1000 or more
charges included in this study have
not more than two points to circuit.
The surviving circuit system Is most
marked in Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indi-
ana, Tennessee, southern Missouri, Illl-
nos and West Virginia. The cente-
nary movement of the Methodist |
Episcopal church will doubtless have |
the effect of Fastening the departure
into oblivion Of the circuit rider in |
some sections of the country, as part
Of the money derived from the joint
drive for $SO,000,00O for |
world upbuildlng, mission and church |
will be devoted to the rural I
,hurch. In other sections, however, !
t has been found that the efficiency |
If the Methodist Episcopal church will

rhis applies however, to the less
favored sections of the country; in
he more developed sections a pastor
With but two churches to care for has
more than he can look after if he con-
dders his task one of community up
,ulding as well as Of community serv-

LOCAL LAD TO GET
ARMY DISCHARGE IN
FEW SILL

Ft Sill, Okla, May 17.-Private
Roscoe NJ. Evans of this post and
whose home is at 718 East Iowa ave-
nue., Chickasha, Okla, will be dis
charged this week from the United
States army. Private Evans has
served his country faithfully and
well since August 7th 1918. Like all
good soldiers, his services were at
considerable sacrifice to himself, but
they were given cheerfully and with
no regrets. 1t was his part to go
where he was sent and do what he
was told. He had no voice in either
matter. He will take up his duties
as a civilian in the same spirit and
his friends in the same spirit ard his
friends in the army hope that the
people of Chickasha will extend him
a fitting welcome and that the en-
ployers of labor will find place for
him when he arrives at home

The wang of the willow on the
horsehide will be heard at Univer-

the Chickasha Black Kats, premier

team from the M. T. c. at Fort
Sill.
The fact that the visitors are
white and the defenders of local dia-

merchants staked the "Kats" to
the price of complete outfit of uni

Dec eratias.

The city officials of an aristocratic
western city during the recent "flu"
epidemic placed a ban upon all public
gatherings. Both theater and church
assemblies suffered as a result.
On the bulletin of a fashionable
church it had been a custom to display
suitable text beneath the announce
ments of the week.
Near the end Of the quarantine the
usual announceTAent, mo Services
Sunday" appeared, and to the amuse-
ment of passers-by and to the conster-
nation of the church members it was
supplemented by the text, "Be Ye
