VI chicago. VINO was entertained last nlRh
at the Mercantile Club by one hundred
Baptist laymen.
A plea for the evangelization OF the down.
tow part of st. Louis was the burden OF
an address delivered by the Reverend Doc.
tor Johnston Myers of Chicago before IL
representative Baptist ministers and lay
men at the Mercantile Club last night.
He stated that he believed from his ex-
| perience in Cincinnati and Chicago that the
district which is the most densely populated
should be the district where the activities
of the church should be greatest.
In his brief stay in st. Louis he has
learned that 1t was the tendency OF the
churches, and especially the Baptist church
| es, to establish their places of Worship
further and further away from the great
centers.
This fact he deplored, and urged that a
! great central church in charge of the braini-
est Baptist that can be found be at once
established.
For the next two years" he said, you
men OF st. Louis will have a greater re-
sponsibility upon you than the men of any
other city of the world. Prepare to meet
1t. h gospel should be preached. not par
ticularly where there are fine houses, but
where there are great throngs of hungering.

bcrhood OF your fine churches. what good
will your fine churches do?"

portunities the least work is being done"
Doctor Myers - the pastor of Emmanuel
Baptist Church in Chicago. and is known as
the most successful pastor-evangelist of the
denomination.
He came to st. Louis az the guest of the
Board of City Missions Of the Baptist
Church. He spoke in the afternoon at the
Third Baptist Church.
The chairman of the meeting last night
was Edwin G. Davis of Delmar Avenue
Baptist Church. After Doctor Myers's adj
dress there were several short speeches.

in his church. and obtained a conditional

GRAINS WORK HIGHER
AFTER EARLY DECLINE
MOST OF EARLY LOSS IS
WIPED OUT.
Reports of Russian Crop Shortage
and Drop in Consols Cause
Late Strength.

Grains again closed with slight losses in
yesterdays local market. During the
greater portion OF the session the tendency
was distinctly bearish. but Russian crop
advices and a mild European war scare
caused enough buying near the close to
wipe out the larger portion of the days
losses. Crop reports, though somewhat
mixed. Showed that the growing wheat was
well protected in most sections, though
some damage was to be looked for where
the snow had been blown way by the re-
cent blizzard. The May option dropped 20
