'ONDAY PRAYER MEETING

When it is considered that for consid-
erably more thar two years these meet
ings have been held every week day with
out II single intermission except /. few
days last August, and a steady increase
in attendance and interest is shown, the
only conclusion that can be arrived at is
that Gods hand is at the helm, and the
business mems prayer meeting is here to
stay, and is destined to exert Il sniritual
influence that will be felt far and near.
The average daily attendance for the
week, ending yesterday, was fraction
over eighteen, tine best perhaps since the
meetings began The great wonder is that
MANY more good Christian men do not
avail themselves of this extraordinary
means Of grace At these meetings will
always be seen eight or ten weli.known
business men and Christian workers. by
whose prayers, sacrifices and faith in God
the MONDAY prayer meetings have been
sustained and kept up. There are others
that are spasmodic in their attendance
go every day for n season and finally are
numbered with Il very large class who at
tend only occasionally. During the last
two or thee weeks people visiting the
city have contributed to increase the
average attendance. Many requests for
prayer have been made lately and during
next week the Crittenton meetings will
6e an especial object for prayer. w. s.
McClanahan will lead the meeting Mon
day, and the first twenty three verses of
the twenty. second chapter of Matthew
will be the lesson.
