HOME COMING DAY.
Especial to the Bystander.)

1t was a red letter day at Bethel
"A. NJ e, church Sunday. Rev. G..
Elias Winston, who has been holding
evangelistic meetings for two weeks
and with marked success, reached
the climax of these meetings on Sum
day. This day was set apart all over
the country for the beginning OF a
series Of meetings in all churches,
for the evangelization of the men and
boys. The African M. E. church Of
Cedar Rapids. feels the responsibility
Of assisting in this great men and
religion forward movement. So on
Sunday we were fortunate in secur-
ing the services OF the Hon. Mr.. Nc
J.. Randall and the Hon. Mr.. L. M.
Kratz to speak In their own way con-
cerning this great work. Both Of
these gentlemen are part OF the
committee Of one hundred In Cedar
Rapids. They spoke along the same
line in regard to what will make this
movement q success. The Christian
world is realizing now as never be-
fore, the necessity Of the fatherhood
Of God and the brotherhood Of man
that God knows no color or creed,
but recognizes the individual worth
a. man to man and that there u no
real. success tn Me until ths people
become more united and acknowledge
that God is the father OF us all. The
day proved to be one Of inspiration,
all three OF the services were largely
attended with an overflow at night.
The spiritual optimism OF the day
seemed to have been contagious.
Everybody seemed to be inoculated
and was in turn happy and joyous
Pastor Hackley Is irnbuing the peo-

form in which the Bethel choir was
shown Off in their special selections

night and afternoon Of this week.
We had with us during the day the
Rev. i. N. Daniels, the new presiding
elder Of the Keoekuk district, who
administered the sacrament at the
