"Why do you tell that child the

"John Wesley, because once tell

TENT WORK.

More and more It is becoming manifest
that great tent meetings are powerful
means Of reaching and eyangelizing the
masses. Whether It ought to be so or not
1t is So that very many people will not en-
ter meeting house, but will go to tent
meeting. In the tent meetings held In
connection with the work this past year
many hundreds of people have been cor
verted Several associations are now tax
ing up this part Of the work aud proyidins
themselves with tents. which arc used ny
the pastors for great rallies and for meet,
ings in special places. Your board Is wen
pleased with this. II IS better. If 1t can
be so, that the associations shall own the
tents than that the State board should own
them II Is necessary, however. that your
board shall own and control tents enough
for the highest efficiency Of the general
missionaries So fruitful is the work OF
evangelism and so great is the demand foI
1t that we believe 1t TO be In the Interest
OF the denomination at large that men es,
pecially gifted In evangellstic work, nnu
i'm the work Of development In connection
with it, shall be ASSIGNED TO definite see
lions OF the State to work In cooperation
with tho forces in the field.

RENINALS AND CHING.

We note with pleasure the restoration OF

giving can't be pressed in revival meeting

close the series Of services with great
collection. This has been done IN many
plnces with much 10y and enduring pront
TO the churches. proper standard of
giving has been set not only for one
church, but for others round about, ana
thus the whole denomination has been
graded up. not only in spiritual life, but
IN good works.

There has been increased activity in the
department Of church building during the
year, though It is to be regretted that no
general collection could be taken for TINS
interest on account of other collections
which were urgent. There nave been
built this year In connection with the mis-
sion work seventy meeting houses The
board has adopted the policy OF giving
special help to weak churches in the sup
port OF their pastors ~ the churches exert
themselves in the direction OF church build
ing. We are glad to be able TO support
substantial progress in the rehabilitation
of the churches In the storm-swept district.
Through the liberal assistance OF the home
board a suitable house for Galveston Is
now well advanced toward completion ana

under construction. The exceeding stress
