Those who went on the afternoon

and those who were unfortunate
enouph to have to make the drive in

The subject of discussion, as is al-
ways the subject with our team of

question of Christian service and
preparation for the life to come.

The United States transport Cristo-

the American brigade, left the dock
at 1:50 p. m., bound for home.
The evacuation of the city was ef-
fected without any clash occurring
between the Americans and the na-
tive army. The Mexicans marched
on the heels of the departing troops,
but no serious disturbance of the
city’s peace was registered during
their entrance.
Residents in Fear.
Residents of Vera Cruz, who had
heard of threats made by followers
to General Villa and others opposed
to General Carranza, that they would
resist the occupation of the city by
Aguilar’s troops breathed more freely
as the Carranza troops moved nearer
and nearer to the center of the city.
General Crarranza was quoted by
representatives here as being dis-
pleased with the method used by the
Americans in delivering over the city
and as having criticised sharply the
allure to make a formal transfer of
the various departments.

came in Decker’s first report on the
firing. Today, after a conference
with the President, Secretary Tumul-
ty made a formal announcement that
Decker had reported the shots not
hostile.
“The public already knows what
happened. ’ said Tumulty, “namely_
a boat from the Tennessee tried to
enter a harbor which the Turkish
government had declared closed. A
shot was fired across her bow to
stop her. Captain Decker reports
it wasn’t intended as a hostile act”
Later Secretary Daniels announced
that portions of Decker’s first re-
port had not been made public when
received, because it was considered
contradictory. He announced Decker’s
dispatch reporting the firing contain-
ed the words: “Act not hostile but
unfriendly.” Daniels was unable to
explain its meaning. He said it seem-
to him expression of opinion by the
captain of thb Tennessee, withont
exact knowledge of what took place
on shore. A further explanation has
been asked of the Turkish govern-
ment.

gospel team visits wellston
Last Thursday evening the faithful
thirteen of the Chandler Gospel team
responded to an invitation from the
pastor of the Wellston Baptist church
to conduct services there on that date.
The cozy little church which has just
been completed, which must be at-
tributed to the credit of their faithful
pastor, Rev. T. M. Pyle, was crowded
to its utmost seating caparity with
the amiable citizens of that little city
which bears the reputation of being
one of the cleanest burgs of Lincoln
county.
The meeting was a grand one n
which the full appreciations of all
The local team had a surprise for
the Central State Normal Scrubs Fri-
day. Before the game every one
thought that the visitors would walk
away with the game, but while the
visitors were thinking about the big
score they were going to make the
local bunch was planning how to
their op-
ponents. Every man on the Chan-
ler team was determined to do his
best in this game as they were all
peeved because of the disappointment
at Guthrie the week before.
During the first half of the game
Chandler outplayed Edmond consider-
able. She had little trouble in mak-
ing it first downs. During this part
of the game Chandler could complete
forward passes or buck the line at
will. After a series of forward pass-
es the ball was carried across the
field to the Edmond five yard line
when Staubus went through for a
touchdown. Edmond had scored on a
blocked punt behind the line a few
minutes before. This evened things
up and when Dean made a race around
Edmond’s left end for a 55 yard run
and to a touchdown the crowd went
wild. It was clear now that the game
was to be a hard fought one. The
half ended with the score tied 12 to
12. The local team weakened slightly
during the last quarter and permitted
Edmond to pul! off a fine pass that
scored for them making it 18 to 12 in
favor of Edmond. The crowd went
wild again when Dean raced away for
another touchdown but he was called
back on account of an offside play
before the down occurred. This was
called by Wantland of Edmond who
was the umpire and all three officials
concurred in decision.
The.Edmond team was considerably
the heavier but the speed and fight
of the Chandler machine told its story.
It looked as if the local boys would
win by a good score at the close of
the first half, but Wantland’s words
to his team at the close of the half
made them fight harder. They made
the last score on a place kick near
the end of the game.
Your Hog or Your Family.
Many of you read a short time ago
a news story carried by practically all
newspapers, of $500,000 expended for
special research work in eleven or
thirteen states, seeking a prevention
and cure for hog chorela. I am not
criticizing what the government has
done in this respect, but on the other
hand am commending our lawmakers
j for making this appropriation looking
to the conservation of money invested
and the labor the farmer has put into
the growth and development of the
hog industry, but I do say that they
should have their eyes doctored; that
they evidently ne“d several pairs of
properly fitted glasses so they may
be able to see the babies, the children,
the mothers and young men, and the
old as well, who are dying every day
in these thirteen states from prevent-
able diseases and practically no re-
lief extended to them.
You would have no trouble in mak
ing your choice between a member of
your family and your hogs, if God
Almighty should give you the oppor-
tunity of making a choice. Just as
an illustration: The State Health
Department is receiving a great many
letters, but here is one we are at a
loss for an answer. It is from the
southern part of the state. It is not
a good policy to publish names and
addresses for we want to encourage
all who are needing such relief to
write to us as it is our intention to
continue our campaign for relief of
these indviduals. Here is the letter:
“Dear Dr. Mahr:
“I thought I would write you
some few lines in regard to my
health. I have tuberculosis and am
a poor girl. We haven’t any money
at the preset. If you know of any
hospital I could get treatment at in
Oklahoma City, or any other town
in the state my mother will work
for my care. Please give me your
help. Isn’t there some charity as-
sociation in Oklahoma City or
Guthrie that you know of?
“Please answer. I need help if
it is possible for me to obtain it.
Yours truly,”
Now which is the most valuable to
this girl’s mother, this daughter for
whom she is willing to labor for care
and treatment, or the hogs in her
community? This is only one in-
stance, but there is not a community
or a county in the State of Oklahoma
but what has a similar instance. Do
not take my word for it, go to your
ministers and the doctors in your
community and you will find that the
statement I have just made is true
as far as your community is concern-
ed as well.
Tuberculosis is a preventable dis-
ease just the same as hog cholera,
but science has gone further; we know
the cure for tuberculosis; we know
how to prevent it. Why should not
appropriations be made to control and
prevent tuberculosis and save your
son, your daughter, your wife or
mother, or your husband?
During the last session of Congress
a bill was introduced and was known
as II. B. 12,864, asking the govern-
ment for hospitals in southwestern
states for the care of migratory cases
of tuberculosis, the people coming
here for the benefit of their health,
yet carrying infection with them. Fre-
quently they are without funds and
soon become an expense to the tax-
payers and those who are charitably
inclined.
This bill failed to pass, being left
with the committees.
Why so much interest in regard to
the farmer’s hogs and so little interest
for the farmer’s family.
The farmer is a voter and like every
other man protects his pocket book.
He is vitally interested. He will be
just as much interested if you saved
his pocket book and lives of his fam-
ily, but it takes public sentiment to
bring all these things about. While
we should be thankful to Congress for
the help with hog cholera, why not a
Christmas present in the way of let-
ters to each one of your Congressmen
