DR.. Wharton took his hearers through
the rugged beauties OF Jericho and re-
counted his experiences in the hallowed
land in his wonted, forceful glowing
style.
At the conclusion OF his lecture he
thanked the press and all his other friends
I'm this city for the encouragement give

credit for the skilful handling OF the

attention OF the audience. The Doctor
called a little crippled lad 10 the stage
and presented him 10 the audience as a
