At Delaware avenue and K street

lea.
In the background OF the scene shown
above is the tent used by the Seventh
Day Adventists for their open air meet

man for his merry-go-round. Next to
this towers the skeleton outline of a

ious body Of colored PEOPLE for revival
meetings.
On this clear space the ground can

be used for many and all sorts of pur-
poses 1t is mere coincidence that brings
these two amusements so close to the
places for religious meetings
Even If there were only the two meet
ing places, each one might annoy the
ether during the times that the services
are held. This possibility is greatly in
creased when there is a general chorus
formed by the calliope Of the merry
go-ro'lnd, the crealSing of the Ferris
wheel, the preaching in one tent and
the praying and singing In the other.
Colored church people will hold a mass
meeting at Friendship Baptist Church
