Big Radio Phone wjth an enrollment o{ l20. It is
the general opinion that this is
ihe largest number ever in at-
tendant at this school, at one
time. A large total enrollment
was given out in 1916, but that
enrollment covered two separate
terms, with only part of the
students in attendance at each
term.
Furthermore, it has been ob-
served that the present student
body is one of the finest, from
the htandpoint of personality,
ever enrolled at any sohool in
the wtnte. In other words. Cent-
ral oollege has an exceedingly
high-standard of students this
year.

Rev. Ashley S. Farnham
Will Move to Duncan!
Rev. Ashley S. Farnham, who
has been the minister of the
Christian church nearly two
years, has been called to Duncan
to the pastorate of the Christian
church of that city. He has ac-
cepted the position and will leave
next week to assume his new du-
ties.
The Duncan church has a large
membership and pays a hand-
some salary. It is a live-awake
church, located in one of the best
oil towns in Oklahoma. In addi-
tion to his salary Rev. Farnham
will be furnished with a Dodge
automobile and a new $8,500 res-
idence.
Rev. Farnham and the church
to which he is called are both to
be congratulated. While pastor |
of the Edmond church, Rev.
Farnham endeared himself to all
of the citizens of Edmond and
vicinity, regardless of church
fellowship. He has been a
splendid citizen, is a broad mind-
ed christian gentleman, possess-
ing a charming and winning per-
sonality, a friend to all, and has
succeed in enlarging the mem-
bership of the Christian church
so that extra rooms had to be
built to take care of the Sunday
school classes.
Rev. Farnham is a student of
fine literature, an interesting and
able speaker, and possesses much
wit and humor. He has been a
factor as a town booster, always
on the job, and his service with
the Chamber of Commerce has
been very valuable. The Duncan
Chamber of Commerce will find
him always ready to serve on
committees or to assist in any
other manner toward the upbuild-
ing of Duncan.
kV'e have heard only expres-
sions of regret relative to Rev.
Farnham's departure from Ed-
mond, as all regret very much to
lose a most valued citizen and
minister. Yet his many friends
are pleased to know that the city
of Duncan appreciate his real
ability and we congratulate him
on tne splendid opportunity for
doing good in a larger cnurch
and city.
Mrs. Farnham is accomplished
and is valued very highly in
church work, patrons club, and
other organizations of communi-
ty uplift. Her friends are num-
bered by those who know her.
She will be sadly missed, but she
goes to a larger city where, no
doubt, she will find and serve in
greater community activities.
