Rev. H. r. Myers of Rutland, the
evangelist employed by the Vermont
Baptist state convention. closed a series
of meetings lasting 10 days, in the Bap-
fist church Sunday evening. The attend
ance was good all through the series,
and the interest increased from evening
to evening, reaching its height Sunday,
when special manifestation appeared
both in the Sunday school and the even
ing service. The Congregational people
united in the services. All who heard
Mr.. Myers preach and sing feel that he
is a courteous, consecrated Christian
worker, a fine preacher and a sweet
singer of the gospel. His calm manner
and simple methods are much in contrast
to the sensational methods adopted by
some evangelists. There is every indi-
cation that his work will prove of per-
manent value.
