THE BULG|N MEETINGS
INCREASE IN INTEREST
Another Vast Congregation Gather for the
Second Service Last Night The Con-
tinues to be Great Feature
of This Wonderful Un-
ion Meeting.

One OF the greatest things about
union revival meeting is the thought
of SO mary men listening to great
man speak who are thinking his
thoughts and breathing fervent
"Amens," to utterances entirely akin.
These are the different ministers of
the town churches who are here to do
their part toward making these meet
ings a successful outpouring of the
souls great love for great redeemer.
It is arranged that these ministers
each have their separate work to do,
and as they come forward to make a
few necessary remarks, their Joy is
manifest in their smiling faces, and
their trust in their chosen leader to
speak great truths to many people is
secure. Each one capable to sway
their people by convincing arguments,
it would seem that through their pray
ers and devotional demeanor they were
imbuing this their leader with some OF
their own strength--and some of their
own knowledge which has come to
them as it has come to him through
much searching through the wonderful
book of books, and through delVing
deeply into the works of the brainest
men of ancient and modern times.
Thus we notice Rev. Roper who list
ems with smile OF understanding
coming from his own personal ability
of which we have heard. Rev. Smith,
the Baptist of which denomination
Rev. Bulgin is ever telling something
to make his point more plain. Rev.
Davis is always busy, and seems quite
the business man, as well as the ser
want of God. Rev. Burger and Rev.
Miller are taking their part, and who
expect to be called on throughout the
meeting to do their share of the noble
work, for which they stand ready
shoulder to shoulder
Rev. Rose will sing and conduct all
through the meetings, and he is so
earnest it would take a heart of stone
or one with bad sore throat to resist
hispleadings for a triumphant song to
Heaven by each one lending their
might to swell the glorious melody,
And he makes them sing! Whether
they will or no--and each heart finds
when once the voice is lifted up in
song, the prayer finds words more
quickly.
And then when the announcements
have been made, and the choir has
ceased its singing, when the offering
has been taken and each can say in
his heart "All things come of thee oh
Lord. and of thine own, have we given
thee" the great speaker is ready to
stand before the people and deliver an
other sermon as great as the one be
fore it, and as wonderful in conception,
delivery and finis Rut before he be
gins the argumentative appeal, he
never fails to make some wholesome
remarks which show his kindly inter
est in the people whom he Is address
ing. Today, he visited the Vinita high
school, and paid beautiful tribute to
its girls and boys. He saw a differ
ence in the faces of children in a dry
town. He thanked God for this In
Vinita and in the state of Oklahoma
and hoped it would stay dry, He paid
tribute to the daily press, to the busi
ness men, and believed it would be a
wonderful world if we could all live to
help each other-and then he named
his subject The Man of Galalee OF
Was Christ Divine?' And the text
IF Thou be the Son of God, Come
Down From the Cross" Matthew 27th
