The Adult Bible Class.

This most potent factor in church de-
velopment is now receiving much at
tention throughout the country. Many
successful and enthusiastic classes are
'in operation and it is proven that the
old book has lost none of its charm or
power over the hearts of men.
At the Sunday evening hour at the
Presbyterian church, Rev. ]. R. Craw-
ford, gave something of the history,
methods and scope of this promising
movement. His purpose being to more
fully acquaint the people with the fas-
cinating possibilities of this new move
ment. Wherever introduced the class
has more than met with the expecta-
tons of the churches.
Mr.. Crawford has been approached
on the subject and requested to form
an Adult class organization in his
church. He is altogether favorable to
the idea, but thinks it well to have a
clear and intelligent conception of the
undertaking before beginning. If form
ed, the class will be open to all adults
men and women of the community who
may wish to league themselves togeth-
er in the study of the Bible.
Let all who are interested in the
movement give their names to Mr.
Crawford without delay-for as soon as
conditions will warrent the class will
be organized.
