she proceeded to tell me that these
meetings r held twice daily by girls
who have been baptized with the
Holy Spirit and fire." 1t is common
for them to speak in tongues which
they do not understand. and also to
be smitten dumb. SO that they canno,
speak at all. even in their own Ian
guage. During the early part of the
meeting at which I was present. one
Of the girls had been obliged to write
her message. because her tongue was
holden. Sometimes the girls will "a

utter a word. although they under.

to them. and are able to pray in other
tongues, and When they especially
pray for the power to do so they are
able to speak in religious meetings.
The girls show no effect whatever of
the terrible strain they undergo dur.
ing these prayer meetings. and they
all do their regular daily work. The
burden Of their prayers is i~ntercession,
that all the mission. and all India,
may be converted and experience a
great revival and receive the Pente.
costal baptism. So much l learned
from this young woman.

the Grinnell team greatly outplayed the
five from this city. This accuracy In
throwing baskets accounts for the
