Growing in Interest.

The revival meetings that have
been IN progress at the Baptist
church for the past week are in
creasiDg in both interest and at
tendance. Notwithstanding the
rain last night the crowd was the
largest of any night during the
week. Rev Parsons took "sin" for
his theme and preached another
of his soul stirring sermons. His
intense earnestness and plain pre-
sentation of the truth is having a
marked effect in leading many to
accept the terms Of the gospel.
During the afternoon and evening
yesterday g number rose and asked
for prayers that they might lead a
better life.
Arrangements are being made
for special young Eeop'e's rally
meeting at ; O'Clock on Sunday af-
ternoon, when Rev. Parsons will
preach On the subject, "Give me a
man" Those not worshipping
elsewhere are cordially invited to
IL thsse meetings.

difficult operation was performed
by Drs. Hammond and Hood in

fled Mr.. George of his nomination by

another outburst of cheering. Mr.
George said:
