GREAT RESULTS At
UNION SERVICES
ALMOST 200 HAVE PRO-
FESSED THE FAITH TO DATE
Yesterday Busy Day for Church Co
@s-sunday School Rally Opening
Service Of Day and Ninety Hand in
Carls-Morning Service Impressive
Two Afternoon Meetings for
Men and Women-Great Crowd
Out to Hear Evening Service.

Yesterday at the close Of the even
ing service of the union evangelistic
services 1t was found that a total of
one hundred and seventy one cards
had been signed to date expressing a
purpose to lead a Christian life and
unite with some Of the churches Of
Pendleton.
The services OF the day began with
a rally Of the Sunday schools at 10
o'clock. There was an atmosphere
Of expectation and enthusiasm from
the beginning of the service, and,
when after brief addresses from the
pastors present and the superintend-
ents of the schools, the evangelist ad-
dressed the children and gave the
invitation over 80 responded and came
forward, there were many older
Christians who showed deepest emo
tion. HEE
One thought was tremendously em-
phasized by the situation. The
churches and Christian people of
Pendleton cannot treat lightly the
claims of these young people who
are asking for their sympathetic help
and encouragement in the path they
are choosing.
AT the morning service Mr.. Hau-
denschield preached on "The Cour-
age Of the Christian" Many who
have convictions but do not live up
to them, felt the appeal OF the plain,
straightforward, direct message Of
the preacher.
Nearly four hundred men gathered

mand OF the father He simply did
In trusting faith the things that God
asked him to do. The Christ-like
minded man or woman will do in
this respect as did Jesus. II this
was true. the Christian world would
be united and the world would be
taken for Christ. We must love God
as Jesus did. The proof Of love is
obedience. He said, IF you love me
you will keep my commands"
The sixth step in the mind Of
Christ is willingness to do. Christ's
life was an active one. II mattered
not how many weary miles he had
trod, or how tired his aching limbs
had become, no call was ever made
upon him that he was not still willing
to exercise his faculties in the ac-
complishment OF the will Of God. The
Christian who does continually for
the Christ, ever active, is the Chris
tian whose life is satisfactory and
happy, as well as the one who ac-
complishes results. but his influence
and earnestness will convince where
argument will not. To know the will
of Christ We will study his will in the
New Testament.
There were four conversions at
the morning service. At the close OF
the morning service the members OF
the church were asked to remain and
the evangelists were presented each
with a Pendleton Indian robe as a
slight token Of the esteem in which
they are held by the church In this
place. The presentation speech was
made by L. C. Martin and was re-
sponded to very feelingly by both
Evangelist Wilson and Prof. Limit.

church. The house was filled and
the interest manifested in other serv-
ives was sustained here. The ad'
dress was given by Miss Constance
McCorkle, secretary of the Young
women's Christian association Of
Portland.
Miss McCorkle also spoke at the
Young Peoples meeting in the even
ing at the Congregational church.
Rev. R. E. Storey presided at this
meeting.
At the evening service the Metho-
dist church was filled to the limit OF
its capacity. The sermon was mas

for the afternoon meeting. They sang
the old songs with a vigor that al
most silenced the organ and orches-
ira, and indicated a sympathetic re-
ception OF the message. II any one
came expecting a sensational address
or mere entertainment he was cer-
tainly disappointed.
The text OF the hour was simple
and direct as the message. Prepare
to Meet Thy God" Men realized the
significance OF the subject announc-
ed. "The Red Light" A danger sig
nal was flashed in the face Of the
man who is not prepared for the
meeting with God. At the close of
the Service a number Of men indi-
Gated their decision to take a stand
for Christ.

scholarly manner the subject being,

On Tuesday evening, February 1s
company L will present its long
planned, local talent, comic opera
and military extravaganza. For
many weeks preparations for the per-
formances have been under way. but
owing to the great amount of train
ing necessary for the production the
date was not definitely fixed until
yesterday.
The play will be given In the Ore
gon theater, which Manager Streeter
has courteously agreed to turn over to
the militia boys for the occasion.
Aside from this, Mr.. Streeter and
Miss Bryan are also lending much
valuable assistance in training some
of the best features of the entertain.
ment and they themselves will have
speciality that will more than
please.
The program for the coming enter
tainment will be in two parts. The
first half will consist OF specialties,
mostly choruses, by we'll known
young Pendleton people, while the
second part will be devoted to a mil
itary extravaganza 1.-THE Subdual
of Hermiston," local talent produc-
tion that will permit of some very
thrilling scenes. The thing will be
almost entirely burlesque and in the
course Of the performance many Of
the local people as we'll as Hermis-
tonians will be shown up in an en-.
tirely new light. Aside from the To-
cal color in the extravaganza 1t will
also be interesting because 1t will
show many of the humorous features
about camp life and some hitherto
unpublished orders will be made
known for the first time.
The company entertainment is be-
ing managed by a committee from
the company with the assistance of
Morrie B. Streeter and Miss Blanche

 FOOTBALL CAME

The game of football between Hendrix and the State Normal on Thursday will no doubt be the best ever pulled off in this city. The Hendrix team is considered some what the strongest as some of their players are more experienced than the Normal boys. However, the Normal team has been doing some fine practice the past week and are confident that they will make a better showing than is expected against their opponents, if they do not win.
 The Normal has adopted purple and silver gray as their colors and nearly all the students are wearing the colors.

GOV. DONAGHEY BUYS LAND
Secures Nearly One Thousand Acres in
 Tupelo Swamp District. sss


 A real estate transfer of consids erable magnitude took place today whereby George w. Donaghey became the owner of about 1000 acres of land lying in the Tupelo drainage district, giving him prac- tically the controlling interest in the lower end of the district. MT. Donaghey bought 32o acres from H. B. Ingram, 27o from J. E. Little and so from B. l.. Harton, which, with the 32o acres already owned by him, gives him a total of 9eo acres. The consideration of the deals was not made public.
 MT. Donaghey says he is conf dent that when drained the land in this district will be the richest in the county.s Some opposi- tion has been made to the construc- ton of ditch through the district, but, as H. B. Ingram owns a large maj jority of the land in the upper part of the district and MT. Dona- ghey in the lower part, and both are favorable to the ditch, it is thought that it will now be con- structed with the least possible de- lay.
