Yesterday at tn. Methods, Church.

Meetings began with 7 a IN. pray.
er meeting. The attendance was
good for that hour Sunday school
was up to its full quota and under
the efficient superintendency OF Mr..
Harris is increasing in numbers and
interest. Mr.. Welch's address to the
Sunday school children was a real
treat Mr.. Welch is at home with
the little ones and knows how to ar
rest their attention and secure their
sustained interest from nrst to last.
The morning discourse. "1ne Reality
and Personality of Jesus" was a feast
Of fat things. Mr. Weich held the
congregation in rapt attention as he
vividIy and pathetically portrayed
the suffering Son OF God. and few
could restrain the tears that involun.
tarily filed their eyes or conceal their
motions as they were made to realize
that Jesus suffered. bied and died for
them, and desired to be reality to
them. The afternoon meeting. al.
though not so large. was well attend.
ed and quite a large number OF those
present made a full and complete sur
render OF themselves to God. Mr..
Welch was at his best In his address
to the Epworth league. and the young
people duly appreciated his stirring
remarks.
The evening lecture. "A Trip
through India With Kodak" was a
time never to be forgotten by those
whose good fortune 1t was to be pres
ent. The views taken by Mr.. Welch
with his own kodak gave a very vivid
picture OF actual life in India. show
ing on one side the effects OF heat.,en.
ism and on another the results OF
christian missions. The pictures of
the Indian famine brought tears to
many eyes. Altogether the lecture
was one packed full OF interesting in
formation. and delivered In Mr..
Welch's enthusiastic style made it one
OF the best that IL has been our priv.
ilege to listen to for many years.
Long before the time to begin the
church was comfortably filed, and by
s O'Clock the house was fun. A few.
however, edged their way in. The
house was packed to its utmost capac-
ity. and standing room was at a pre-
MUM. Probably many were turned
away as they were unable to get into
the house.
