GOOD CROWD AT THE
 PISGAH SERVICES
Many Testify to Having Been Healed of Disease Without Medicine.
 Larger Home Secured

The regular Sunday afternoon Pisgah services were recommended in Fraternal hall yesterday afternoon and large audience greeted the Pisgah evangelists.
 After several musical numbers by the Pissah quartet Dr. Oxnam spoke for an hour taking as his text, And the prayer of faith shall save the sick" He told of constantly increasing number of Chris tian people who were turning to God as the Great Physician, and quoted the fifth chapter of the Book of James in support of his contention that the day of miracles anc of divine healing did not close with the ascent of our Savior into heaven.
 pr. Oxnam said: This book was writ ter by a man considered the brother of Christ and consists of instructions given fol observance over 40 years after Jesus Christ went to His Father. If they were applicable then, why not now?'
 He then asked for those present who had been healed of disease without the use of medicine. and through the prayer of faith, to arise and over half the audi ence rose to their feet giving God the credit for their healing.
 At the conclusion of Dr. Oxnams re- marks, the Rev. w. J. Squire announced that more men had been taken care of, and more men had been secured work in the first week of September than during the entire month of August
 MT. Squire also announced that on Oc- tober 1 Pisgah Home would take build ing at 115 Tuscaloosa avenue, twice as large as the present quarters, to accom- modate the rapidly growing needs of ftierdless men.

EVERY DEPARTMENT
 OF FAIR IS ACTIVE
Mrs. Reid Expects Unusually Fine Exhibits in Woman's Depart
 ment This Year

With only "A full days remaining before the opening of the Alabama state fair, every department of the great exposition is full of activity and greater interest is being shown in the fair than ever be- fore.
 Mrs. J. B. Reid, manager of the wom- ans department of the fair, has been practically flooded with applications from persons desiring to make entries in her department so that a limited amount of space only remains untaken. Mrs. Reid is axious to have all prospective demon strators and exhibitors file their appli- cations for places as early as possible. in order that she may have tags ready when the goods are delivered. The CO., operation of exhibitors in listing their entries at once will very much facili- tate the arrangement of the department
 Every section of the woman's industry department of the fair will be thoroughly filled. and the arrangement of the hall has been so completely changed that vis- itors to the fair will not be disappointed by seeing the same exhibit that they have seen in past years.
 There will be something distinctly new. I'm fact, everything in the womans de- partment will be new except a few arti- cles of historic value which 1t is desired Ito show.
 This department of the fair is ths only one that has featured new work every wear of the fair This has been done with two objects in view. The first aim has been the entertainment of the public. But the real virtue of the arrangement con sits in keeping the women of the state busy all of the year round. And nun dreds of Alabama women have been busy raising, planting or making something for the Alabama state fair
 If any one has an exhibit that she woull Hike to enter in this department. the method will be to send to Mrs. Reid for blanks, fill them out and mail them at once to her. The exhibits will then be delivered at the fair on the 2oth of Sep tember, according to the catalogue. This will secure prompt attention for exhib- itors, and good position for the ar ticles entered.
