In the Washington Churches


at every service many profess conversion
One Of the noticeable features Of the work
Is the large number OF business men and
young men who are greatly interested in
the progress OF the revival. A prominent
business man Of Washington bought q
ticket for q theater. but changed his mind
and thought he would go and hear Evan
gelist Harrison. At the close Of Mr. Har-
rison's sermon from the text, IF thou art
wise, thou art wise for myself" he pro-
fessed conversion.
Mr.. Harrison stated that this revival in
its quiet solemnity and deep conviction
for sin and powerful conversions durine
the first ten days Of his work Is the most
remarkable that he has known In his
long experience OF revival work. All ages
and classes are seeking religion-some
far advanced in life. mothers and chill
dren. young men and elderly men. AT
every service the great congregation sings
songs OF praise for the conversion Of loved
ones. friends and neighbors. Plans are
now being perfected for harvest home
jubilee.
