I was able to pic- ture for myself the crowds of friends walting and watching at my gates and to think of the still greater number of those who throughout the empire were remembering me with prayers and good wishes. “The realization of this has been among the most vivid experiences of my life. It is encouragement beyond de- scription to feel my constant and ear- nest desire has been granted—my desire to gain the confidence and affection of my people. “I am not yet able to bear the strain of a public ceremony, but I am looking forward to some appointed day for join- in‘ my people at and overseas in thanking God for the new evidences of kindliness of men and na- tions.” DROPPED FOR FRAMING SEX QUESTIONNAIRE Department Head and Assistant Dismjssed From Oklahoma Bap- tist University.
