Oil Add This Week
We call your attention to the
advertisement of the Mid-Conti-
nent Oil and Gas Association,
showing how much they pay year-
ly in taxes to Federal,State and Lo-
cal governments.
They employ one million people
at fair wages and show what a
calamity it would be on the peo-
ple of Texas if the industry should
be shut down. We cannot feature
Texas without such an industry.

The attendance and interest in
the services are growing. The
comments on the messages are that
they are something different. The
delivery of Rev. Dent is pleasing,
forceful, unique and powerful. It
is a presentation of the Gospel of
God in a new .way. The speaker
gets a hold on his hearers as but
few people can. The Gospel is be-
ing preached in all its simplicity,
humbleness and power. Both
righteousness and sin is being laid
bare. In fact Rev. Dent has some-
thing to offer and is offering it to
everyone.

so, as you will always regret not
