Dear Grandpa:
The birds are beginning to
come forth and make music all
the day.
I like to hear their music in
the summer and sit out under character>
the Elm tree it makes my heart
tflad and happy. Oh, grandfather
I always had two wishes in my
heart. Oh, grandfather one is
too see you, and the other is to
have a lot of money to get all
the birds that people have in
cages and let them fly about in
the yard and go where they
please.
I like to go off by myself and
think about the beautiful angels
in Heaven and lay down on the
cool green grass and watch the
clouds float by and think of my
loving mother at home and
sisters.
Cliff School Notes
Cliff, Okla. April, 0, 1909.
Deal' Editor and Pupils:—
1 will again visit you after an
absence of three weeks.
Our school is very small this
week, partly on account of work
and partly on account of sickness.
Mrs. Pardue is recovering
from an attack of La Gripp and
Uncle Tom Waterson and Mrs.
Lue Watterson are on the sick
list this week.
Isom allow ine to compliment
you, you are real cute but Miss
Augusjta doesn't look natural she
l« ok too large.
Miss Maggie says" that Mr.
Webb js coming over and take
our pictures to morrow we hope
he will.
Turner you had a nice letter
this week as usual.
Shay you have a fine opinion of
boys sure if I were a boy 1 would
thank you very much, now you
left out one thing boys think
about and that is playing
marbles and other such things
for the first thing the boys said
this evening at recess was, "lets
play marbles."
Aunt Mary I don't know
whether I can answer your ques-
tions are not but I will try.
The greatest salmon fishery in
the U. S. is Salem Org. I think.
There are Continental Islands
and they are usually close to t he
mainland and many of them
have not been long sepe rated
from it. They have been formed
by the upheavel and sinking of
the coast. And there is Coral
islandr and Oceanic islands and I
don't which one you are asking
about.
Wishing you success I remain
A Pui'ii,.
Lebanon School Notes
Dear Editor and Cozies:
The weather is fine and our
school is getting along tine. We
had spelling last Friday aternoon
and had several visitors. We are
always glad to have visitors in
our school.
Come airain Aylesworth 1 will
try to answer your question:
Sequoyah had eighty-five
or letters in his
alphabet. Aunt Mary I can
answer but one of your questions.
Columbia River is the great
Salmon Fishery of the world.
I will ask a question: When
and by whom was the Santa Fe
Trail located?
We are preparing for nr. enter-
tainment at the close of the
school, which is the last of April.
Every body is invited.
Leonard Marlow is absence
from school this week on account
of sickness. I will close wishing
success to all. A Pui'lL.
Antioch School Notes
Dear Cozies,—I will write
again. I will try to answer
Aunt Mary's questions. I may
not get them exactly as I havent
my paper and I dont know just
how they read, however I will
make an effort. The great Sal-
mon fisheries of the world are
found both in North America
and Europe between 45 and 75
degr< es of latitude; but those of
our western, coast are the great-
est for in the year 1908 the
Pacific coast alone put up 1,800,
(XX) cases of 4*-1 lb cans each and
19(H) Puget Sound sold
$2,348,142. worth.
There are two kinds of Islands
Continental and pelagic; the con-
tinental are those that are
I elongated anu generally parallel
I to continents, pelagic are de-
tached, rounded, or in groups
I and systems in open ocean. They
are of two formations volcanic
and coral formation. The Bahama
Islands are partly coral forma-
tions and the Philipine Islands
are volcanic and yet have many
active volcanoes. May on on the
Island of Luzon is a very noted
one.
Some of our trees did not live
that we put out on our ground
while others are growing nicely.
The fence around the school
ground is nearly completed and
we will try t.o plant some flowers.
Next Friday afternoon we are
going to have an easter egg hunt.
I must close. I remain.

SPIRITUAL RELIGION
by kkv. j k. bird
Spiritual religion is the religion
taught in the Bible, which is the
book of God.
Of the many religions taught
in the world the religion of the
Bible is the only one which is
spiritual.
This one idea of spirituality
distinguishes the religion of the
Bible from the other religions of
the earth.
The ancient Oriental religions,
except that of the Bible, were
physical, material, carnal, sensu-
al, mythical, philosophical, ra-
tional, intellectual, ceremonial,
ritualistic.
All the religions of the world,
except the religion of the Bible,
have gathered around the ideas
sensuality, philosophy, or cere-
mony. Some people have wor-
shipped sensual material things,
as the sun, moon, heroes, ani-
mals, trees, rivers, etc. Some
have worshipped systems of phi-
losophy some do yet—science
and reason.
Some have worshipped a sys-
tem of ceremonies and ritualist-
ic actions.
You may say that all people in
all ages have worshipped under
one of these forms. And they
do yet. They either worship that
which is carnal and sensual, or
that which is only rational and
philosophic, or that which is cer-
emonial and ritualistic.
I mean by this that all people
who do not worship a spiritual
God in a spiritual way worship
under one of these forms.
I do not believe that God has
ever established but one religion,
and that is the religion of
the Bible, the religion of Abel,
Enoch. Abraham, Daniel, Jesus,
Paul, and the children of God
from that day until now.
The relitrion of Enoch and
Abraham was just exactly like the
religion of Daniel and Paul. And
the religion of Paul was just like
the religion of ,lno. Knox or Jno.
Wesley. And the religion of
Knox and Wesley was just like
the religion of the humbiest
saint of God in all the earth.
The religion of all God's peo-
ple in all ages has been spiritual.
Among different people and in
different ages of the world it has
been manifested in different
ways, and at different times it
has worn different clothes, but
has always been the same un-
changing spiritual religion.
Spiritual religion is the religion
of God, it has always been the
religion of God, and it always
will be the religion of God.
It is God's greatest gift to man.
It is the light of the world and
the salt of the earth. Without it
the world would be a barren wil-
derness and man a savage fiend.
It is the priceless pearl for hu-
man life.
It has caused the world to
laugh in happiness and the earth
to bloom in peace.
Next week I shall tell what I
conceive this spiritual religion to
be.
Full Bloods Wed
John Wolfe and Miss Lilly
Folsom were quietly married at
the home of the groom's mother
at Shay Saturday at ti p. m. It
was a very quiet affair only two
witnesses being present. The
bride was simply dressed in her
house dress and the groom
in a brown base ball suit, having
just returned from a game of
ball. The groom has a common
English education, but the bride
can only speak in the mother
tongue. The groom necessarily
had to act as interpreter for the
bride. Both are full blood Chick-
asaws and are 21 years of age.
This is the first instance of a
wedding in this community
where both parties were full
bloods that were married under
the Oklahoma laws by a white
officer. C. L. Norman preform-
ed the ceremony and M. N.
Halley was one of the witnesses.

If eyes are placed too close to

critical.
If eyes are far apart, the own

intelligence.
Deep set eyes show melancholy
and moodiness.
Protruding eyes show self-in-
dulgence.
Wide open, round eyes mark
a mind that is not developed, is
credulous and serious about small
gossip. The owners haveno self-
control.
If the eye is very oval, almost
almond shape, with the outward

for a crafty and subtle nature.
Gray eyes are those of intellect |
and a well-balanced character.
They show unselfishness and a
strict sense of justice. When
they are put below a broad, high
forehead, they denote great
talent.
Brown eyes, with a touch of
hazel, show courage, intelligence
and affection.
When the hazel eye has an
