The Revival Meetings

The closing meeting of the
Baptist church last night was
one Of the best and largest at
tended of the services. Our peo-
pie were only beginning to realize
what a gnificent preacher Mr..
Wamboldt is and what a treat
they missed by not hearing him.
The Star has no hesitancy IN
saying Reverend Wamboldt has
had no equal as a pulpit orator
since we have known Ocala and
the interest he has awakened
along spiritual lines on the all inn
portant subject of serving our
fellow men as well as our Christ,
was fully attested by those who
gave them their presence The
eloquent speaker took his text
from Genesis 90 "And God said,
let us make man in our image.
He spoke of the power of the
eye, the ear, tie nose, the
month and the hand and his de-
scrlption of the same as difying
the image of their creator was
truly sublime, and entranced his
listeners. 1t is beyond our ken
to depict the glowing imager OF
his thoughts, as he clothed them
in verbal ralment that made
them truly objects of light and
beauty. We trust Mr.. VAN
boldt will come again shortly.
