SIGNIFICANT MOVEMENT.
International Prayer Circle Of Ameri-
ca to Encourage Prayer
Habit

religious movement OF interest has
Just been started at Evansville. Ind
under the title OF the International
Prayer Circle OF America. The Chris
tian Work says It's object is to induce
a more general habit OF prayer among
Christians. which shall not only deep
en- their own spirituality, but which
shall be the means OF awakening a
greater religious feeling among others
and spreading this ardor the world
over. Rev Henry B. Roller. who has
been conducting evangelistic work for
some months past in Evansville. is the
founder of the new organization. He
says, in explaining its aims and pur-
poses. that 1t is a union OF Christian
people OF all denominations and creeds
In America who will agree TO pray for
more general revival In the United
States Of America and for the entire
western hemisphere" No substitution
Is required and no constitution or by
laws TO bind. as the Prayer Circle Is bv

church or benevolent organization. but

come member by sending his name TO
the Prayer Circle committee. and a
card, containing the seven conditions
TO which he agrees. is sent for sigma
ture 10 the person and record made

that genuine revivals are not world
made or artificial, but that they come
inspirationaliy from God as the reward
OF earnest and fervent prayer. ANY
church, community or city can have a
revival. says Mr.. Roller. If the de-
voted Christians. many, or few. will
come together and keep on praying
until victory comes. The Prayer Cir
Gle booklet, which gives an outline OF
the purposes and methods OF the or
ganization, will be furnished local
