JACKS' REVIV-
AL PROGRESS
X
MEETING AT THE ARBOR
TAKING ON LIVELY
PROPORTIONS.
Singing is a Feature
Several Nice Solos are Inter
spersed During Service
at Each Meeting.
The revival of Elder Nathaniel
Jacks and son, Ezra, continues
with unabated interest at the
tabernacle down on Third street
There are increasing crowds at
almost every service. The meet
ing is taking on lively propor-
tions and there have been four
teen additions to the church up
to Wednesday night. During
the services each night there
have been several nice
Miss Ruth Niles, of Sentinel, sang
very prettily Monday night
Miss Margaret Criswell, of Elk
City, the regular soloist, sings
nicely every night. Like Miss
Niles, she has a good voice and
always deepens the interest in
the meeting with her singing.
Ezra Jacks is leader of the choir
as usual, and his directing seems
to have the effect to draw quite
a number on the rostrum, and
they all sing, too. Ezra some-
times whistles instead of singing
while leading the choir. He
does not -use the old-fashioned
pucker-of-lips style, but doubles
his fists, like unto the way the
boys used to do when they whis-
tled between their thumbs and
made a noise like the cooing of
doves. You've done that way if
you were once a thoroughbred
boy. If you were a thoroughbred
girl you tried to whistle that
way, just the same. With this
new method of whistling Ezra
can be heard above the entire
choir. He triUs, -modulates and
crescendos with fine effect.
There are many who like the
whistling. Mrs. C. F. Atwell is
one of the best and most faithful
piano accompaniests in the town.
Everybody likes Mrs. Atwell, too.
There have been sojne good
sermons during the meeting,
Rev. Jacks preached on "It's Up
to You," Sunday night. That
sounds a bit slangy, but the
preacher made it plain that it is
up to you to become a member
of a church, and a working
member at that. "The Differ-
ence, and Why," came Monday
night. That was another good
one. Lots of us know the dif-
ference and why, but do we do?
"The Unpardonable Sin" came
Tuesday night. It was good.
As a matter of fact, Elder Jacks
is an entertaining talker, a man
who would have made as good a
politician as Texas has produced
lately, for he is one of the best
mixers in the country, and to be
a good mixer generally
means to be found among the
winners. But Jacks is a preach-
er and he wants to tell you about
it. Go hear him.
Remember—these hot days you
want the best flour that is in
town. You can get it at Wibur
Miltenberger's Elevator. We
guarantee the Big M first class
in every way, or bring it back
and get your money. We sell
the best grades of coal-McAles-
ter at $7.00 per ton. Come and
see us. We want your trade, tf

Selden Miller and wife are here,

The War Scare in Europe.
It is hard for the ordinary in-
dividual to understand just what
the fuss in Morocco is about. I
have tried to get what informa-
ation I could on the subject, but
frankly confess that I am still
hazy on the matter.
It may be said, however, in a
general way, that France, Great
Britain and Germany are claim-
ing certain right3 in Morocco and
if the matter is investigated, it
will be found that the common
people of those three countries
have very little real interest in
the matter of concessions.
Neither Germans, Frenchmen
or Englishmen are migrating to
Morocco, and they do not ex-
pect to. Morocco is about three
times the size of Kansas and is
inhabited for the most part by
fierce Berber tribes. All the
Christians, and of course all the
Europeans, are classed as Chris-
tians, in distinction from the Mo-
hammedans, number only a few
thousands. But Morocco is a
country of very considerable
natural resources and European
capital was attracted there.
Loans were also made to the
government of Morocco by these
same Christian capitalists.
In the final analysis it will be
found that the interest the three
great powers are taking is in be-
half of the capitalists who have
invested their money in that
country. France insists that
Germany is trying to hog things
down there and the English cap-
italists are of the same opinion,
hence this talk of the great war
in which these three powers will
be engaged.
It is safe to wager that there
will be no war. There will be a
good deal of talk and getting
Notice.
In the matter of the application
of J. 11. Huckaby for the ac-
quisition of rights to the bene-
ficial use of the waters from
the Big Elk creek, in Washita
county, state of Oklahoma.
Notice is hereby given that J.
R. Huckaby has filed with the
secretary of the board of agricul-
ture of the state of Oklahoma,
and ex-officio state engineer, his
application to appropriate waters,
both surface and underflow, of
the Big Elk creek, a stream flow-
ing through section numbered
twenty-one (21) of township
numbered eight (8), north range
numbered nineteen (19), west of
the Indian meridian, in Washita
county, state of Oklahoma, and
that he proposes to appropriate
and apply four (4) cubic feet per
second of all waters flowing
through the said stream, both
surface and underflow, for bene-
ficial uses, to-wit: Irrigation,
water power, mechanical, manu-
facturing and pleasurable pur-
poses, and any and all other ben-
eficial uses, with power and au-
thority to charge and collect com-
pensation therefor, and for use
and consumption of such waters
That the said appropriation of
said waters will be in section
numbered twenty-one (21) of
township numbered eight (8),
north of range numbered nine-
teen (19), west of the Indian
meridian, or thereabouts, and
that the use thereof will be made
for irrigation along the line of a
proposed conduit down the said
stream to and below section 21;
such waters as are used for wa-
ter power purposes to be return-
ed to said stream at or near sec-
tion numbered twenty-one (21),

ready of war ships and assem- nineteen (19), west of the Indian
bling of troops, perhaps, but no
war. It will, however, be an ex-
cuse for continuing and increas-
ing the vast armament and bur-
den of military expense that is
bending the backs of the patient
toilers of Europe.
It will also be used by the ad-
vocates of a bigger navy and big-
ger standing army in this coun-
try as an argument to get bigger
and bigger appropriations-out of
congress for the building of more
warships, more fortifications and
more of a military aristocracy in
this country.
"Look at conditions in Europe,"
say these advocates of bigger and
more battleships. ' 'England and
France by being prepared for
war make Germany afraid to go
to war."
But suppose that there were
no great standing armies in any
of these countries, then there
would be no possibility of war
and their differences would be
settled by arbitration.
Let it be remembered that all
of this marshaling of armies and
battleships is in the interest of
capital and not in the interest of
the masses of those countries.
While Great Britian is building
more Dreadnaughts and laying
almost unbearable burdens on
the shoulders of her people, pov-
erty increases in the slums of
London.
While almost untold millions are
expended in preparations to pro-
tect the investments of rich
Englishmen who have been in-
fluenced by the lure of fabulous
profits to risk their wealth among
the wild tribes of Morocco, con-
ditions unspeakable are permitted
to exist in the heart of the great-
est of the world's capitals.
Men and women starving, child-
ren dying for want of air and the
plainest of food. If the war
burden of England were lifted
from the shoulders of the people;
if the hundreds of millions spent
on her armament were used in
the building of healthful tene-
ment houses, in the furnishing
of employment for her labor, the
misery, the degradation and un-
speakable poverty found in Lon-
don and other great cities of Eu-
rope would at least be greatly
lessened. —T. A. McNeal,in Kan-

FOR THE FIRST PICNIC.
Why not be the first to entertain at
a picnic and relieve yourself from
some of those social debts that have
been hanging over you? The picnic
Is an Ideal way of pleasing one's
friends, it may be a porch party, a
lawn fete, a garden party or Just a
picnic, according to the environment,
means and desire of the hostess.
The entertainment may be deter-
mined by the taste of the people In-
vited.
A delightful morning or afternoon
may be spent by asking the guests to
bring their fancy work or sewing,
while one of the number reads aloud.
The reading may be followed by dis-
cussion. For those who like contests,
those treating of flowers, birds or
fruits are appropriate.
For refreshments, the punch bowl
may dispense refreshment during the
afternoon, and later sandwiches,
salads, cakes, Ices and coffees are
served.
8ponge Cake.—Try this delicious
cake, to serve with Ice cream and
crushed strawberries: To seven eggs
take half a pound of flour and three-
quarters of a pound of sugar, the juice
and rind of a lemon. Pour over the
sugar a half cup of boiling water and
let It boil. Beat the whites and the
yolks together, beaUng the whole until
It is thick and light Stir in the flour
llghUy, add a dash of salt and the
lemon last of all. Bake In a slow
oven. If properly made this cake will
be wonderfu'ly light and delicate.
Plmlento Cheese.—The cream cheese
which we buy in the markets put up
In jars Is so well liked for sandwich
fillings, and may be prepared at home.
Take rich cheese grated, and add an
equal quantity of cream cheese; mois-
ten with the liquor which comes over
the canned red peppers, season with
salt and cayenne and then add as
much of the chopped red pepper as
one's taste demands.
This cheese is very pretty made Into
Individual balls, decorated with a slice
of stuffed olives.
Robert Gambill and wife, of
Winters, Texas, are here, the
guests of the parents of Mr.

FIRELESS COOKER RECIPES.
An ideal way of cooking ham te to
let it come to a boil in the kettle, then
put It into the cooker and let It stand
six hours. If yours is a home-made
cooker you may have to take it out
and reheat once during the time. Then
remove from the water, cut ofT the
rind, stick a few dozen cloves in it,
and bake an hour in a moderate oven.
If a cup of sweet cider is added to the
water just before putting into the
cooker it will add greatly to the
flavor.
Chicken Soup.—Save the water In
which the chicken has been stewed.
The next day crack the bones of the
fowl, add any of the bits of meat left,
a slice of onion and four tablespoon-
fuls of sago. Bring to the boiling point
and place in the cooker three or four
hours. Strain and reheat, adding a
well-beaten egg and the seasoning just
before serving.
There is no manner of cooking cere-
al go perfectly as in a flreless cooker.
Ab a rule, the directions on the pack-
age of cereal gives too short a time
for cooking. The flreless cooker
cooks every grain, rendering them
soft and digestible. In cooking grains
and cereaJs it is better to set the dish
Into another, bouble boiler fashion,
havlg the heat in the water in the
two dishes. This hastens the cooking.
Old-Fashioned Oatmeal.—Take one
cup of oatmeal and three and a half
cups of water. Drop the oatmeal Into
the boiling salted water and boll for
ten minutes, then put Into the cooker
for four or five hours, or this may be
put to cook at night and reheated for
breakfast. One has always to bear in
mind that there 1b no evaporation in
the cooker, so less water Is needed to
cook any food.
Rice Is a cereal that Is beautifully
cooked In a cooker. Heat a quart of
milk to the boiling point, add a cup of
rice, salt, cinnamon and sugar to
taste and boll for ten minutes, then
place in the cooker for three hours.
Every grain will be distinct and thor-
oughly soft.
