REVIVAL MEETINGS
At the Methodist Episcopal Church to
Close Sunday Night.

The two weeks evangelistic
services conducted by Evangel-
lists Cross and Ogle at the new
Christian church closed Sunday
evening.
The church house was dedi-
Gated at the morning service
with a very beautiful and enter
tanning program. The dedicatory
address was delivered by Evan
gelist Cross, his subject being
The Masters Cup" in a very
forcible and impressive manner,
after which 81, ,1SS. 80 was pledg-
ed to help pay off the indebted
ness on the building.
The business men of the city
gave very literally to help in
this enterprise, and we'll they
should, for this is the best church
house in Southern New Mexico
and greatly helps to strengthen
and beautify our already beautl-
full city in the eyes of new-com-
ers.
The series of meetings result
ed in nineteen additions to the
church, eighteen by confession
and one by letter.
Evangelist Gross is a strong
man in the pulpit and deep
Bible student. He appeals to
thinking men and women. He
had no trouble whatever in keep
ing his audience perfectly under
his control at all times. Mr..
Ogle had charge of the music
and is thoroughly competent
leader. Messrs. Gross and Ogle
left Monday morning for Waxa-
hachie, Texas, where they were
to hold a series of meetings.

There was a total Of 4, 364'629 tcle'

Of s2s,62o stations. OF the total, there
