formal gospel meetings every Sunday

and the young women are adopting the
use of them in their different associa-

will be taught and special instruction
will be given in sketch work, suitable

secured nowhere at the price but at the
association.
There are number of applicants for
the Friday evening Bible class and
when sufficient number are secured,

Of women and men, who are preemi-
nent in their special lines of study.
All Bible classes are free to associa-
tion members. The class on Tuesday
afternoon meets at $50 and the at
