How "Scottie, Once Shrewd Gambler,
Puts Up Churches in Oil Fields

IN Seminole, Oklahoma, in the
heart of one of the worlds
richest oil fields where crime has
been rampant, another magnificent
church building has been added
to the many edifices built in the
oil country through the work of
Rev. l.. L. Scott.
"Scottie the Baptist" as he is
known, is the original oil field
evangelist. THE Building Par

months ago, Scottie came to
Seminole. having resigned a posi-
ton paying much better salary
to take up the work at Seminole.
Starting with 100 members and
only $4,000. Scottie has waged
a successful campaign for new
building and now $50, 900

one OF the most desirable parts
of Seminole.

Wherever the name "Scottie

Says Worlds Largest Telescope
Is Much Larger Than Necessary

son, DIR. F. G.. Pease Of the observatory
staff said after receiving information
of the new finding from DR.. Richie.
Practical Importance of the discov-
cry lies in the greatly reduced possible
cost of constructing still larger tele-
scopes, DR.. Pease said. A model en-
bodying the new ideas has been con-
structed and named the "Aplanatic
telescope" Like the great Mt. Wilson
instrument, this also is of the reflec-
tor type in which a mirror takes the
place Of the usual lenses. A concave
mirror reflects the starlight back to-
ward the star to a smaller mirror

Scottie, with Old Bits guitar,
would sing old-time negro spirit

and out on the oil leases and
would raise hundreds Of dollars

At clifton, Scottie borrowed a
shovel to start excavating for the
foundation even before the con-
gregation owned a lot. Seeing
the preachers mind was made up
to have modern church, the
members soon had bought a lot
and an attractive building was
built. 49,
Coupled with Scottie's faith is
the one slogan that he kept be-
fore the people always. On the
streets of the oil towns, in the
toughest dives, pool halls and bar
rooms, even !. out into the fields,
could be seen the words, Save
the Children, Build the Church."
Scottie was born Feb. II, 1880,
in the Indian Territory. Choctaw

was meager. He attended
country school for few months.
