John R. Mott, associate general secre-
tary OF the international committee of the
Young Mems Christian Associations and
secretary of the Worlds Student Chris
tan Federation, when he was shown the
plans of the religious revival which will
be held in this city during the latter part
of this week and the first part of the COM
ing week said:
1.-The extent of it and the scope of it
surpasses anything of the kind that has
ever been attempted in the history of
Christianity
This big evangelistic campaign will take
place during the coming session of the
international convention of the Y M. c.
A of North America. which will be held
in this city from November % to Novem-
Der 20. 1t is an entirely separate propo-
sition from the convention itself 1t was
1-al
nected with the local Y. M. c. A., and is
an effort to make use of the religious
workers who will visit the city as dele
gates to the convention. Among the 5000
delegates who will be present are some
of the most brilliant religious speakers in
America. and these have volunteered to
help evangelize the Capital city. -
