MiDNi6Hl PARADE

In a review Of the Chapman re-
vival In this city at the r1rat Pres
byterian church Sunday night. Or.
Al. A. Matthews condemned the mid
night parade that took place at that
time. tho Objectionable features OF
which, were pointed out BY The star.
Hundreds Of innocent women and
children marched through the ten
derioin. and the hancfui effects were
evident.
Some OF the methods used we're
not effcctual.s said Dr. Matthews.
The midnight parade was a fatal
mistake. and vas not endorsed BY
some OF Us. Il was only tolerated
In the hope that the experiment
might do some good. No one is more
ready TO admit his mistakes than
Or. Chapman himself However. the
whole crusade should not be con-
demned on that account
There were many things 10 com
mend. Personal work was empha-
slzed. the Bible was exalted. the
pastors work vas magnlfled and
the spirit Of union was giorified.
Among the objectionable fea-
lures was the midnight march.
which was a gross bluuder. The
financial factor was too prominent.
Advertising was too extravaganL
