New Year.
BUSINESS MEN EAGER
TO PUSH FOR CHICKASHA
Daily Discussions Ahead of Session
Show Enthusiasm On Up Grade;
Workmen Now Busy Prepar-
ing Room for Meet.

It's to the point now when every
Chickasha business man is asking
every other Chickasha business man
IL he is going to present when the
curtain is rung up on the luncheon
and smoker to be given by the Cham
Der Of Commerce next Wednesday
night at 4lG 1-2 Chickasha avenue
From present Indications the big
room vii lbc crowded to capacity as
the event opens. It's to be informal
and all that sort of thing and an
event where everyone present is to
forget his own business and spend an
evening in doping out what can be
done to boom the prospects Of Chick
asha.
They're Taking To It.
That's tho idea the Chamber OF
Commerce wanted to get over and
that the members of tho Chamber OF
Commerce are taking to the idea in
a run can be seen whenever two or
more members get together.
Straightway they begin telling
each other that "all lit is going to
take now is one push all together and
the old town in over the bill.n
It's not as If every body had pet
idea that he figures on handing out
at the meeting. That's evident from
the fact that so many have the same
IDEAS, to the effect that the organi
zation should take ON just few bis
things for the new year and put
them over or bust trying. All
these things may be learned If you
will just take the trouble to mention
the subject to most any business or
professional man.

pared lights put in and everything

Temporal Power.

Rome, June Pope Benedict has
issued an encyclical letter, announc-
ing that while he maintains the

Pope Benedict in this important
document, emphasizes the necessity of
eliminating the germs of discord
which have prevented the full estab-
lishment of peace and seriously injured
not only the temporal interests of the
nations, but the life and spirit of
Christianity as taught by the Lords
prayer and, the example of our
Saviour"
In conformity with this principle.
the letter declares the pope "forgives
those who, during the war, distorted
his intentions and furnished his work. -
He adds that the chief object of the
Catholic church IS to help humanity,
and appeals to bishops to teach their
flecks the necessity of forgiveness and
charity.
