The Brunswick times-call. [volume] (Brunswick, Ga.) 1900-1902, 1901-03-17

PREACHING at the tent, 1850 p. m.
Today will mark the eighth day OF
the Jones-Stusrt meeting and with its
close there will be only two days left.
1t is confidently expected that this will
be the greatest day of all. There will
be ma ny strangers in town and the
Brunswick people will turn out en-
masse.
The christian workers will begin the
day by sun rise prayer meeting at the
Baptist church. Unless the wind should
be blowing the tent will be used for the
other services, except the woman's
meeting, which will be held at the
Presbyterian church at 8 O'Clock.
At the 10 80 service Rev. Geo. Stuart
will preach his famous Temperance
sermon. Mr.. Jones pronounces this the
finest thing of the kind that he has ever
heard. Mr., Stuart uses no abuse; but
piles up facts and figures to convince
even the most skeptical. Even the
whisky men themselves can hear this
serman and be profited by it. They are
given a special invitation.
Ats O'Clock Mr.. Jones will preach to
men only and promises that it shall not
be dull meeting. 1t is not for men
only that he may talk things that ladies
could not hear, but he wishes to give
room to accommodate every man in
town. He wants to get closer to the
men than he has yet done. However he
may talk, every man who hears Mr..
Jones Is soon convinced that he is their
friend. He has probably reached more
men, and often men SO low as to have
been given up by others, than any man
in this country. And say what you
will, every man feels the strength of his
appeals to their higher manhood and
their God-gIven nature. No man 10
town, Jew or Gentle, can afford to miss
his telk to men this afternoon,
During the progress Of the mems meet
ing the christian women will have a
special service at the Presbyterian
church.
At night all will worship al the tent
again, the weather permitting. The
service last night was especially help
full, The sermon ON Daniel was one OF
the best yet preached, and all who
missed hearing it lost great deal.
If Brunswick was only half as anx-
ious to be helped as these earnest men
are to help her, she would get great
blessing and powerful uplift. This
will likely be day long to be remem-
bered in the religious life of this city.
Let no one miss the good things pro-
vided. The two men who are now in
our city draw the largest crowds of any
preachers or public speakers who are
now before the American people. 1t
is reflection on Us that they are not
greeted with even greater crowds than
haYe yet attended the services,

A Monroe, Ncb., dispatch says: Far.
mcrs who have land under the Great
Eastern canal now appreciate irriga-
ton. While u considerable area In
this valley is planted TO garden truck
and seeds, there is considerable corn
under irrigation that will yield from
sixty-fivc to eighty bushels per acre.
This is the first year that irrigation
in the east central part Of Nebraska
has had q fair test and the results are
all that its friends had hoped for.
Ever since its introduction, In 1890,
the seasons hare been favorable for
crops without it's aid, but this year
water is worth to farmers anyway
from onc.half to two-thirds the value
of the land. Dry weather makes con-
vcrts for irrigation and as n result 1t

has not changed materially during the

caused the corn to dcterioratc less rap
