RAILROADS TAKE AN APPEAL
Oklahoma and Hissouri Corporations
May -Mean Defeat
Miss Abbott and Miss Bagby, for-
mer teachers in the O. B. C., spent a
few days in town visiting friends.
They are on their way to take up
their work with the college at Man-
gum this year. __
.1. E. Bousser, who has been in the
employ of the Blackwell Milling and
Elevator company, has resigned his

miller at the mill at Anthony, Kas.
He will move bis family next week.
Oklahoma City, Sept 5.—Oklahoma
and Missouri corporation commis-
sions have joined forces in an appeal
to the interstate commerce commis-
sion for an order requiring railroads
operating between the two states' to
sell passenger tickets from points in
Oklahoma to points in Missouri and
vice versa at the rate of 2 cents a
mile. The Missouri commission haa
taken the initiative in the proposition
this commandment—the relation of
child to parent—is predicated upon
j man's relation to God on Ihe one
' hand and on the other it flashes its
light upon every subsequent command.
Our duly to God is pre-eminent. If we
neglect or disregard God's rights, the
rights of man will soon be lost sight
of. A due and proper regard for those
to wiiom we owe our being is our first
obligation and is here placed before
those laws that deal with our rela-
tions’ to outsiders. Respect, esteem,
obedience and support are all a part
of that honor which is commanded,
see Prov. 1:8; Eph. 6:1-3: Matt. 16:4-6.
Notice also that woman's place is
here made equal to that of ihe man.
It is Paul who emphasizes the fact
that this is the "first commandment
with promise," and also that to neg-
lect this duty is to invite punishment
(Eph. 6:2, 3). It is the. business of the
child to honor the parent, no matter
what may be his character; he must
nob sit in judgment. On the other
band, the parent has an obligation to
the child, Eph 6:4.
Human Life Sacred.
VI. The Sixth Commandment, v. 18.
This it- a revelation of the sacredness
of human life. God alone has ihe right
to take away or command to take
away human life. One reason for this
is because we are made in his image.
Gen. 9:6.
VII. The Seventh Commandment, v.
14. This commandment deals with
the sanctity of the married relation
and indicates the sacredness of parent-
hood. There is no other sin that so
speedily undermines human character
and overthrows families, tribes and
nations. It is the source of. or leads
to. every crime in the calendar. It de
molishes the moral sense, w recks the
body, brings a hell of remorse, misery

“What little things make men
to make thorough tests of wheat, held
for seed in all parts of the county
and to arrange for plentiful supplies
of seed wheat from other sources if
the tests show unfavorably. H. A.
Brack, a prominent farmer of Otis,
northwest of here, noticed last spring
at blooming time, when the wheat
berry forms, that something was
wrong with the bloom. Recently he
selected his best wheat for seed and
made a test of its germinating qual-
ity. His first test was followed by oth

“My friend told me that what I brw
was all derived from selling radishes
and lettuce to New York produce deal-

farm winter or summer but radishes
and lettuce of high quality, and most
of It under glass. Abe Van Sicklen
was the farmer who foresaw a good
market for such relishes out of sea

supply the big restaurants in New
York, then merchants, with the prod- ;

"He could get his own prices In win-

about the outdoor competition In sum-

to make yearly contracts, and soon

13:4; Rev. 22:15.
VIII. The Eighth Commandment, v.
15. Here if si statement which deals
with the sacred rights of possession.
To take that which rightfully belongs
to another is to steal. It does not
matter if it be done "within the law"
l by withholding a just compensation
| or b> gambling, it is Just the same,>
| Deut. 24:14, 15. This works both ways.
I The employe who steals his employ-
er’s time, the buyer or the seller who
I cheats lotteries in the church or out
i of it, these are forms of stealing in
that they take something without ren-
dering a just equivalent of value.
IX. The Ninth Commandment, v. 16.
This c-oramandjnent recognizes the
Sacred rights of character and insists
upon absolute truth as a standard of
judgment. Reputation cannot be
passed on from father to son; it is
much harder to secure than money
and is far more valuable. Backbiting,
false slander are not compatible with
love for your neighbor. To give wings
to a bit of scandal you have received
is to violate this law.
The Most Severe.
X. The Tenth Commandment, v. 17.
This is perhaps the most severe re-
quirement or any in this second group
of laws. The man who keeps this will
readily and easily keep the four which
immediately precede it. All desire for
those things that belong to another is
Inconsistent with true love, and in the
light of this law such a desire is sin,
yea, more, it is idolatry, Col. 3:5.
Hard as it is there is, however, a way
to observe it, viz., to “love your neigh-
bor as yourself." Such love will de-
sire that he shall have the best things
and consequently makes It impossible
for us to covet bis possessions.
The effect (v. 18) upon the people of
this manifestation of God’s glory and
the giving of the law was that they
were filled with fear and besought
Moses rather than God to speak with
them. This is a commentary upon the
words of Paul just referred to. and j
an illustration of the need of the law j
as a revelation of sin. Moses respond-
ed (v. 20) to their fear with words of
assurance, and explained to them that
this fear was to prove them that they >
should not sin.
Life that is truly rooted in religion
expresses itself in morality of the
highest type Without right relations
with God we cannot expect that chil-
dren will properly honor their parents,
that human life will be safe, that the
marriage relations will be held as
sacred, that tbe rights of property will
be recognised, that truth will be tbe
basis of judgment, or tbax covetous
I ness and envy will not be the inspira-
tion of fraud and wrong doing of all
kinds. On tbe other hand, wherever
God is supreme. The lives of men
harmonise with tbe profession* of
