Our First Ministerial Institute
le first Ministerial Institute
l id in Oklahoma Territory by
he ministers of the Christian
church convened at Chancllei
the 12-14, of Dec., and to say
that it was good to be there is
expressing it mildly. The breth-
ren went with the intention of
making it profitable and lam
sure no one was disappointed.
The first session was called to
order by our Sec., W. A. Humph-
rey, who was made permanent
chairman; W. A. Wherry, Sec.
Devotional services was con-
ducted by Bro. Humphrey.
The writer responded to the
first number on the program
"What does this institute mean.-'
1. Acquaintance and Fellow-
ship.
2. Our needs.
Knowledge.
Cooperation.
Love and enthusiasm for
the work.
The Pastor's hour was con
ducted by Bro. J. M. Monroe, of
El Reno. This was fine and up-
I on motion was voted foi publi
' cation in the Christian. Bro.
Monroe's talk was ti feast of
good things, and we shall eager-
ly wait for its publication.
In the evening Bro. J. B. Boen.
of Oklahoma City, gave us one
of his stirring sermons, subject:
"Heartfelt religion."
Wednesday morning after de-
votional exercises, Bro. J A.
Minton, of Norman, gave a splen-
did address on the subject: The
Pastors' attitude toward the Of-
ficial Board. Bro. Minton'slong
experience as a pastor enabled
j him to give one of the best dis-
cussions of the subject I have
ever heard.
The Pastors' attitude toward
the choir was discussed by Bro.
Humphrey. This was interest-
ing. It is said that Mr. Spur-
ge on arose during one of his
i regular services and said: "We
will now dispense with the wor-
ship ot Almighty God while we
have a performance of the choir.
We would infer from what Bro.
Humphrey said, that he would
not have a choir of that kind.
Mrs. Ferguson, of Chandlei,
'wife of the M. E. Minister, gave
a talk upon the subject of the
pastor's attitude toward the S.
S. using the parable of the Shep-
herd as a basis.
Pastor's attitude toward a-
musements, was discussed by
liev. Furguson M. E- ministei at
Chandler.
Bro. Boen told what the pas-
tor should be to the Y P S. C.E.
The discussions were brimful of
interest and enjoyed by all pres-
ent.
Miss Lura V. Thompson, ot
have a 74-vr. record,largest anniti:

was invited to discuss the pas
tor's attitude toward the C. W.
B. M. Her talk was divided in-
to three heads:
1. Know the work.
2. Love the work.
:•}. Help the work.
The remarks were very helpful.
Miss Thompson is a lady of na-
tional reputation as a C. W. B.
M. worker and the institute felt
highly honored to have her pie-
sence and remarks.
A motion was then made by
J. M. Monroe and seconded by
W. S. Rehorn that the C W. B.
M. be asked to support and e-
vaugelist in the territory next
the fer-
tile man with the hoe, is indeed
a live issue.
The institute was an intellect-
ual as well as a spiritual feast
from beginning. The discussions
were animated with and full ot
I the spirit of Christ.
I Bro. Boen, of Oklahoma City,
j nave his lecture on Mammoth
Cave Wednesday evening to a
j crowded house.
Bro. Carpenter and the church
| at Chandler entertained royally
j and we shall long remember our
first Ministerial Institute at
Chandler.
The time was too short for the
j Work laid out in the program,
nevertheless the interest seemed
to o row from the first until the
last benediction and we could
good to be there'
The invitation of Norman ac-
cepted for the next institute to
be held sometime in April or
May as the Com. may decide.
Our hearts wers saddened to
hear just before the close of the
institute that death had entered
the home of our beloved brother
C. W. Van Dolah in the death ot
their 11 month old child.
Your secretary only regrets
that lie can not u"ive a more ex-
year to cooperate with
ritorial board and that the woi k frilly say:"it i
be under the direction of the I m..
territorial board. Motion car-
ried by unanimous vote.
After the noon hour devotion-
al exercises were conducted by
Bro. J. A. Minton, of Norman,
Pastors' hour presided over by
Bro. Monroe. The pastors' at
titude toward the saloon was
discussed by W. A. Wherry. Nor-
man. Pastors' attitude toward
politics was discussed by Bro. . ,
Carpenter, of Chandler. Pas- j tended report at this successful
tors' attitude toward the lodges institute. Fraternally yours.
W. A. Whekky. Norman.
discussed by W. S. Rehorn. of
Mulhall. Bro. Monroe then
o-ave us some excellent things
in closing the pastors hour.
Miss Thompson followed with
a question box on C. W B. M
work, which was full of interest
and instruction.
"What the pastor sees in the gprintfs
pew" was discussed by Bro. J. j
A. Minton. This certainly de-
veloped some new points. Min-
ton, with his years of successful
pastorates, is well qualified to
handle this subject well.
Dr. Marshall, of Chandler, a
faithful member of Bro. Carpen-
ters congregation, gave us a
talk on "What the pew sees in
the pulpit.'
The Lead and Zinc Fields of North'
ern Arkansas are most easily
reached via the Frisco Line. Ar-
rangements have been completed
for daily si a ye service between
Chad wick, Forsyth and Lead
j Hill; also between Eureka
and Yellville, via Ber-
ry vilie, Green Forest. Harrison
and Powell. These stages make
close connection with through
trains of the Frisco Line and
afford most comfortable and con
