THE CORDELL BEACON
Pane Three
SERMONETTE ONLOAD'S SUFFER
' Uit Sunday iu i great day In
many reapeeta a good number came
to the Sunday morning service that
the Sunday school hour we studied to-
gether the great event ot the resur-
rection of our Lord Then following
the sermon on' the same subject the
"Lord’s supper" waa observed a great
number partook of the "bread and
wine” in memory of what their Lord
had done for them They took It "In
memory of His broken body and abed
blood” This is the only way that it
should be taken Jesus did not say
"If you love each other keep my com-
mandments” But he said "If you
love ME keep my commandments"
But he did say that we should be in
unity oneness in doctrine in fellow-
ship and etc Acts 2:42 Paul also says
that we ought not be divided 1 Cor
11: 16-24 I am sure that the people
in our city felt the aacredness ot this
Holy hour Sometimes I fear that
though many realise its sacredness to
1 a great degree they lose sight of the
real meaning It is a sacred picture
that our Lord left with us to show
to the world that He actually died for
their sins Acts 11:26 "For as ouen
as ye eat this bread and drink this
cup ye do show the Lord’s death till
he comes” The other side ot the pic-
ture shows his burial and resume1
tion Rom 6:4- "Therefore we are
burled with him by baptism into
death that like as Christ was raised
up from the dead by the glory of the
father even so we also should walk
in newness ot life” This is Just as
sacred as the other and should be
obeyed with all due solemnity Ood
said of Ills Son Matt 2:17 "This Is
my beloved Son in whom I am well
pleased” So Ood is well pleased
with those who follow his command-
ments Matt 28: 19-20

the teachers get together we are plan
ning for greater things in the Sunday
school work here and the teacher whc

hence will hinder the work from go-
ing forward Come unless you are

PRESBYTERIAN NOTES
Rev J W Allen
Sunday was a busy day with the
Presbyterians In the S S there was
a splendid attendance the dedication
of three children to God in baptism
and the reception of a fine boy into
the communion of the church during
the morning service a funeral at the
church in the afternoon a splendid
meeting of the C E Societies and at
the evening service a sermon to the
young people
At the morning service the pastor
had as his subject "The Resurrec-
tion” "He is not here but is risen” —
Luke 24: 6
He said that there were two well es-
tablished historical facts (a) That
such a person as Jesus Christ lived
who performed miracles and preached
the gospel of the Kingdom of God
and that he was arrested by his ene-
mies and crucified by the Romans and
was buried (b) That on the third day
he arose from the dead tho denied
by many That he was the promised
Messiah as stated by Paul 2 Tim 2: 6
6 and that he already had come as
predicted by the Old Testament from
two facts The time of his coming
had already past and that he possess-
ed all the predicted works of the Sav-
ior the union of two natures the hu-
man and the divine and the three of-
fices of Prophet Priest and King The
Old Testament predicted both his
death and resurrection Ps 16: 8-10
ChrlBt the crucified is risen according
to the scriptures He has conquered
death and the grave 1 Cor 15: 84
Rom 4: 25 -
His resurrection was not a thing
impossible no greater exercise of di-
vine power is his resurrection thon to
create a new Besides it was neces-
sary to vindicate hi character and
prove himself the true Messiah 1
Cor 15: 17
His resurrection was a proof ot the
acceptance of the ransom of his vie
tory over sin death and the hell and
the assurance ot the Christian's res-
urrection In the study of the evidences of his
resurrection only an outline can be
given-
let On the third the body of Jesus
was missing from tho tomb and could
not be produced by his enemies who
would have done so If possible It
was not there and they could not tell
why and that the report the soldiers
were bribed to make out his die
ctples stole him away Is false on its
' very face Besides it was death to
sleep on duty
2nd- It was not removed -by his dis-
ciples Would not have attempted
such a thing in the taoe of ths proteo-
I tion given by the Roman soldiers who
would have slain them
8rd The disciples had no motive to
remove him If it was a fraud on their
part it Is astonishing that it was not
: discovered and beeides it has eluded
all searoh since then Nothing would
have been gained for this Ufe and tor
that to oome In the face of persecu-
tion they preached that he arose and
gloried In their suffering When the
report wss made they did not believe
it for they were not expecting it-
Even when our Savior appeared some
doubted even days after hs had met
with many of them But In his nine
or ten appearances he was seen by
many ot his disciples and by many
women and at one time by 800 at one
time - The greater part was living
when Paul wrote his first letter to ths
Corrtnthlaa church and could testify
that Ha arose-
By their fruits In the changed lives
of both Individuals and nations prove
the tacts of his resurrection
Josephus a Jewisn historian who
waa an eye witness of the distraction
of Jerusalem by Titus A 70 wrote
both In regard to John the Baptist
Christ and James the Just the broth-
er of our Lord and also of the death
of Jesus and the claims made for bis
resurrection
For the first fifteen centuries his
testimony was referred to by ancient
writers
Tacitus a Roman historian and a
cotemporary with Josephus wrote ot
Christ’s trial and punishment and
also Pliny proconsul of Bythlnla
wrote Trojan for instructions in re-
gard to the treatment of Christians —
Irenaeus who in his youth was a
disciple of Polycarp who in torn was
a dlscipleship of the apostle John
and Turtelllon of North Africa and
Clement of Alexander in Egypt all
affirmed the undisputed and univer-
sal reception of the four gospels by
the church Matt Mark and Luke
were written and publicly read with-
in thirty or thirty five years after the
resurrection Had they been frauds
the facts would have been known and
declared by their enemies Since then
these books have been accepted as
divinely Inspired as the true records
of the life death and resurrection of
Christ
Ood overrules the hatred precau-
tion and acts ot the wicked to their
confusion and to the confirmation of
the truth and the spread of the gos-
pel as seen In the craciflctlon of our
Savior and in -guarding the tomb to
prevent any fraud as to his resurrection-
In our risen Savior we have
one who has promised to never leave
us and to meet our spiritual wants
As he arose so will all Christians
with him to be forever with him in
glory 8o we should make him known
to all the world

ALFALFA WILL HELP THE WH EAT
Considering the Southwest as
whole there is no crop that can be
combined with wheat to better advan-
tage than alfalfa In the first place
alfalfa is a profitable cash crop in the
areas where it is best dapted Once es-
tablished it can be produced with little
expense and practically no risk But
its greatest value to the farmer who
has been growing wheat alone Is the
fact that it wll laid materially in re-
ducing the loss of soil fertility that is
taking place at an almost alarming
rate
To Just what degree alfalfa will ar
rest soil depletion or restore a run-
down farm Is an open question Alfal-
fa like other legumes has the power ot
removing free nitrogen from the air
and storing it in the soil and when it
is plowed up leaves tne soil richer
than when it was sown A good sup-
ply of nitrogen is not only necessary
to the production of large wheat crops
but recent investigations show that the
amount ot available nitrogen in the
soil has much to do with the protein
content ot the wheat
Unfortunately alfalfa is not a suc-
cessful crop throughout all of the
wheat belt ot the Southwest It has
not been generally profitable on the
dry uplands ot the West It does not
grow wel Ion acid soils A careful
study Of soil and climate conditions
frequently shows that alfalfa can be
grown In many places where it is now
thought unadapted Fortunately there
are other legumes such as sweet clover
end soybeans which in some cases may
be substituted for alfalfa where the
later is not a successful crop

MoBt every town has its full quota of
eyesores in the shape of old dilapidat-
ed buildings that once served their
purpose in the pioneer days but which
the march of progress has left desert-
ed long ago for the more modern
structures of fireproof materials and
tor some reason or other several
such old structures may be found on
the business street of most every town
you visit Often you will find one such
right in the heart ot the business block
where all other structures nre thor-
oughly modern
The Bhed-llke structures that once
proudly bore the sign "Pioneer Livery
(pioneer is true today) seem to have
all buildings of the pioneer period out-
classed in staying qualities and also
in unsightly appearance Such old
places of the historic age are now
either standing empty or occupied by
some junk shop — perhaps used as a
community cow barn — and as the days
and months and years go by they be
come more dilapidated unsightly and
unclean and are a menace and a tire-
trap that Jeopardize all neighboring
property
The lots upon which such structures
stnd are worth more If the buildings
were removed and the material used
for other purposes that would bring
some revenue to the owner while in
the present condition it is but a bill
of expense deteriorating auu marring
the beauty of an otherwise fine busi-
ness block
Not all old buildings are In the class
Just described because the owners
have kept them in good repair gave
them a fresh coat of paint occasional-
ly and added new and modern fronts
Just why town authorities will con-
tinue to lot the old useless hulls and
tiretraps clutter up otherwise flue
business blocks is inconceivable- It
shows a lack of the proper progressive
spirit that should first emulate from
every busines man town authorities
and prideful citizens then the old
hulls should get the ax If the owners
have no pride in the town or their
buildings perhaps condemnation pro-
ceedings would Induce them to look at
the matter in a more progressive light
cases there during the year
Only states which contributed more
than 300000 cases annually to the
Chicago market were considered in the
summary ot the report which has
reached here Texas and Arkansas
Oklahoma’s other nearest neighbors
were mot mentioned Other states in-
cluded In the list were Minnesota with
461000 cases South Dakota with 404-
742 cases And Wisconsin with 473819
cases
Outside of New York City Chicago is
considered ths biggest egg market in
the country— and Oklahoma figured
some even on ths New York market
having shipped 16000 cases direct to
consumers there
Illinois leads with 1378846 cases in
shipments to New York but the bulk
ot that it is believed Involves reshlp-
ments from Chicago Iowa is second
on the New York market with 901046
cases Indiana third with 726323
cases Ohio fourth with 514248 New
York fifth with 490801 and Missouri
sixth with 437529
Including shipments to both big
markets the fourth leading states are
given totals as follows: Illinois 1689-
340 cases Iowa 1644561 cases Mis-
souri 1482718 cases Oklahoma 1
118380 cases
The 1103382 cases of eggs which
Oklahomans sold o nthe Chicago mar-
ket alone at an average price of 30
cents a dozen would mean a return to
their producers of 89930438 — and it
must be remembered home tables
were pretty well supplied before ship
ments were made to any of the outside
markets
