INCREASES

Increased interest last night marked
the revival meeting that is in prog
ress at the Methodist church.
Taking as his text the words of
scripture, Lord is 1t II" Evangelist
Law delivered a strong heart-to-heart
talk applicable alike to Christians and
sinners, holding the closest attention
Of his audience with his earnest words
of truth.
Graphically picturing the scene in
the room when the Master declared
that one of his disciples would betray
him and each anxiously inquired, rs
it II" the evangelist applied the text
to his hearers, bidding each ask him
self the question whether he was be-
traying the Master or not The Chris
tian who went to the ball room or the
ater or who sat down at the card table
was betraying his Lord just as surely
as was Judas. In multitude of ways,
by thought. word or deed the follower
of Christ might become traitor to the
cause.
AT the close of the service, in re-
sponse to the appeal Of the evangelist
about fifty persons manifested a de-
sire to live better life.
Mrs. Law sang a solo last night and
the congregational singing, led by Mr.
Curry, with piano organ and an or
chestra. of four pieces was soul-stir-
ring.
