A Meeting Win Be Held This After
 noon.
 The Woman's Prayer Union will meet at the Young womea's Christian Asso- citation this afternoon at o'clock.
 Tne meeting was not well attended last Thursday afternoon and the pro- moters are anxious to have the women of Montgomery become interested In the work. The fact that so many nf the women most interested in organic ing the prayer union. are out of the city accounts in a great measure for the small attendance of last week. There are, however. women and girls enough in the city who areHihterested to, carry on the work successfully until the fall.
 A special course of study has been adopted by the union for the summer. "Christ's Method of Personal Work" is the subject of the course and this af- ternoon Christ and the Rich Young Ruler will be discussed. The women of Montgomery are urged to attend tho meeting.
