Bic CAMPAIGN FOR
SOULS PLANNED
Protestant Churches in Detroit Will
Hold Simultaneous Evangelistic
Meetings Throughout Lent.

What will probably be the best or
ganized church effort yet attempted
I'm Detroit, will be the simultaneous
evangelistic campaign" which VIII
open In the Woodward-ave. Baptist
church. Tuesday night. Feb. 2S. Meet
lngs are TO continue throughout Lent,
almost every Protestant denomination
In the city participating. Many
churches will hold services every
night during the campaign. while all
will conduct revivals in their individ-
ual churches during Passion week. A
general committee, composed OF cler'
gymen from different Protestant
churches, has been working on the
plans for the campaign for some
weeks and has now practically com
pleted arrangements.
Speakers OF national fame will be
provided for the big opening meeting
In the Woodward-ave. Baptist church
which will be union affair, but after
this meeting II will devolve on the
local clergy to take care OF their own
services, furnishing their own speak
ers. 1t is quite likely that each cler
gyman will address meetings In his
own church.
For the purpose OF spiritually pre-
pairing themselves for the campaign
the members OF the Pastors union will
devote their regular meeting. next
Monday. to devotional exercises. They
feel that the combined effort they are
to make will be attended with the
greatest success yet achieved In con
nection with local missionary cam
paign. The services will in reality be
a sort OF forerunner of an even Target
movement OF the kind to be started
next fall and continued Throughout
the winter, according to present ar
rangements. The fall and winter ser
vices will be held largely for men
but the clergymen wish II understood
that the women will also be welcome
A. H. Finn, who is the publicity
agent for the Lenten campaign, says
that the names Of the speakers for the
meeting OF Feb. 20 will not be given
out for some days yet.
