STRONG SERMON
Rev. White Holds Rapt Interest
of Large Crowd at Christian
Church Revival

The meeting at the Christian churn
last evening was largely attended
and the interest was intense. The
song service. especially the duet, by
Mr.. and Mrs Tuckerman, was highly
appreciated.
Rev. White, the pastor, seemed TO
be at his best, and gave his hearers
great sermon On The Final Test.
The sermon was based on the Incl
dent in the lift of Elijah when he
met the prophets of Baal on Mount
Carmel. He made the point that all
false characters, business and relig-
ions would finally fail, and only the
religion of Christ would stand the
test. Rev. White concluded his SER
mon by showing it was the duty of
every man to thoroughly test Chris
tianity, and when he finds it true to
accept Of it.
The announcement was made by the
pastor that the meetings would con-
tnue until Thursday night Of next
week. Tonight there will be a speci-
al song service at 7:30. The sermon
viii be OH the subject, THE Strength
and Beauty OF the Church. The
meeting tonight will probably be one
Of unusual interest and the attend

THEY WE'RE
WILD GEESE

Three geese which J. Wenberger
mad been soictously fattening for his
Thanksgiving day feast escaped from
tleir enclosure in the rear Of the
residence on East Oklahoma avenue
Wednesday and flew and ran through
the east part of town pursued by
men and boys. One OF the birds,
bleeding at the nostrils and evidently
bewildered, appeared in the vicinity
of the Ritzhaupt bakery, the pro-
prietor of which promptly gave chase,
thinking that he was ON the trail of
wild goose. Ultimately the goose was
captured and placed in a barrel for
safekeeping. A few moments later
Ritznaupts son, William. AMI com
panion appeared with another goose
which they had captured after
chase on East Noble avenue, and
Ritzhaupt was already gloating over
a prospective wild goose dinner to
a bevy of his German Verein, when
a customer in the store happened
casually to remark on the Weinberg
er loss of three fat geese. A tele-
phone message informed Mr. Vein
berger that two OF his priced birds
were recovered. SO Jake and ais fam
lily weren't obliged to compromise on
