Ministers Consider Plans Adapt
ed by Alliance Should Be
Successful.
PREPARING FOR BIG CROWDS.
Periods for Conducting Services
Will BE Assigned to Sepa-
rate Denominations
Represented.

The 81. Louis Evangelical Alliance yes
terday morning adopted q plan for build
| ing a great pavilion and carrying out tho
! contemplated religious work in -his city
during the period Of the Worlds Fair.
The plan was outlined by a committee
appointed by the alliance a month ago.
and the report was made by the Reverend
Doctor Samuel c. NiccoIls
The proposition IN short is to erect n
pavilion or auditorium near the Worlds
Fair grounds. most probably in connection
with the Christian Endeavor Hotel. tho
several denominations represented in the
alliance 10 bear their proportional shares
OF the expenses.
The funds are 10 be raised by n com
mittee OF twelve appointed from the six
evangelical denominations represented in
the alliance. This committee is also to
have general supervision OF the religious
services conducted in the pavilion.
Instead OF securing the services Of some
one evangelist to overlook the movement
denominations will be assigned certain
periods during which they will be re-
spOnsible for the services.
Services in the pavilion near the Fair
are contemplated only for Sunday after
Moons, and possibly Sunday evenings. The
gates OF the Fair will be closed on sun
day. Around the pavilion will be four hO-
tels. which, II is said. will accommodate
1900 persons. The alliance expects that
many OF them Will be drawn into the
services.
It is also planned TO cooperate with the
young peoples societies in conducting an
early morning prayer meeting each day.
On sunday afternoons meetings are 10
be held in the eastern part Of the city,
either one Of the theaters or Music Hall
being the place
Doctor NiccOlls explaining the report
said:
The proposed plan is not intended to in
terIere with any organized work OF the
churches. 1t Will not be wise TO exploit
denOminational differences. We have ar
ranged matters IN a way that We think
would not be burdensome in the way OF
financial expenditures
There should from the first be 4 direct
aim in view. This aim by all means
should not be revival among the city
churches, but to provide the gospel for
the thousands who will be anxious 10 hear
II. All denominations should give their
hearty cooperation"
The committee of twelve will be ap-
pointed at some time in the near future
by the president Of the alliance, the Rev
erend Doctor John L. Brandt.
