ing an off brand hair preparation in

WILL CONTINUE
REVIVAL SERVICE
cLERGYMEN AND LAYMEN OF
DIFFERENT CHURCHES DECIDE
THAT THE INTEREST so FAR.
AROUSED MAKES IT iMPos.
sl5LE TO CLOSE MEETINGS.

Impelled by the tremendous interest
that the meetings have aroused the
different clergymen and laymen who
are active in the movement have de-
cided to continue the union revival
services for at least one week more.
It Is probable from present indications
that they will be obliged to continue
them for still greater length Of time
for the people of Fargo are at last
aroused and splendid evidence of in
terest are on every hand.
Sunday evening two special union
services will be held. For the North
side people the services will be at the
First Presbyterian church, and Mr..
Sewrey of the Broadway Methodist
church will be the speaker; while the
south side meeting will be at the First
Baptist church, at which Mr.. Sapp will
speak Both are excellent speakers
and popular; there should be a great
outpouring of people at these meetings
and it is very likely that both churches
will be taxed to their utmost capacity
to accommodate those who wish to at
tend
Interest in these services has been
far greater than could have been hop.
ed: in fact the churches of Fargo are
In the midst of the greatest revival
they have ever experienced. One great
feature has been the unanimity be-
tween the members of the different
churches, while the team work of the
pastors has been an inspiration to
every man and woman who hopes to
see the world grow better through re-
ligious effort.
Rev. J. M. Walters has been pre-
vailed upon to assume the burden OF
speaking every evening next week.
This move was made in the way of
systematizing the work as with the
outside campaign that is to be in
augurated next week. every pastor
participating viii be given a definite
field to cover and it was not thought
that the nightly change of preachers
would allow the best direction of the
energies of each. Mr.. Peterson of the
First Baptist Church will make the ap-
peal for converts each evening, and
the several pastors will participate in
the meetings, but the preaching will
be by one man only.
Cottage prayer meetings and special
MONDAY services for men will be in
augurated early in the week and every
christian worker in the city is to be
pressed into service to awaken those
who need quickening. 1t is possible
that speakers from outside the state
will be secured for special services, as
the committee are in communication
with some live numbers in religious.
work who are anxious to come to Far
go and participate If they can be Of
use.
Announcement will be made from the
different pulpits tomorrow nlorning,
and the newspapers viii have full de-
tails of the weeks programme. II is
hoped that every per sen in the city
who has the betterment of humanity at
heart will get into the harness ana 90

Masonry No Barrier Now.

The United Presbyterian church,
which fourishes largely in Pennsyl-
vania and which has always been
greatly opposed to all secret societies
and more particularly the Masons, HIS
evidently seen the error of it's way, for
the fact that man is a Mason will
not hereafter bar him from member
ship in that strictly orthodox church.
The general assembly of that denomi~
nation, which recently met in Phila-
delphia, has lifted the ban which here
tofore practically barred Masons, Odd
Fellows. and in fact all secret society
members from church Affiliations,
wherever the book of discipline was
strictly observed
There are several other churches
that do not permit their members to
belong to the secret societies, one OF
them being the Lutheran, yet the law
Is not literally enforced and it is not
likely to be.
The churches are coming to under
stand that the secret society founded
on christian principles Is not bar
rier to the welfare of the church. The
committee, which had been at work on
the revision of the book of govern
ment and discipline, has modified the
old laws on the subject, and all secret
society members will now be admitted
without question, IL they but say that
they are open to conviction In all
biblical matters. In other words, the
book has been modified as to the re-
uuirements of a members relations
with secret orders with the likelihood
that few questions will be asked.
In the future all persons open to
conviction on biblical teachings,
whether they are secret society mem
bers or not will be invited to men,
bership in the church. There are
great many secret society members in
the United Presbyterian church to-
day, but their admission to church
membership was because the question
OF their affiliation with secret So
ciety was not raised.
Many congregations throughout the
country have refused to admit secret
society members to their church. The
presbyteries and synods all over the
country have been discussing the mat
ter, with the result that the work of
the committee on the book of dis
cipline and government now only re-
mains for approval and adoption by
the general assembly, which 1t is said
will be done by an overwhelming ma
jority at the present meeting.
Ministers generally are said to be
pleased that the committee has revised
the portion of the book OF govern
ment dealing with lodge members
and In the future, it is believed, all
viii be glad to extend the hand Of
christian fellowship TO THE man who
rides the goat" The main objection
to secret society members has been
that, while all lodges admit the exist
ence of d supreme being, ALI have
not admitted the divinity Of Christ
The ministers assert that Christ il not
