INDIANS VISIT BLACK
FOOT YOUNG PEOPLE

You can't tell what you are going TO
miss when you stay away from church
The subject of the B. Y. P. U. at the
Baptist Church last Sunday evening
was "The Work Of the Converted In
dams"
To make the meeting interesting the
leader Miss Alice Job secured from the
pastor at Ross Fork very interest
ing letter regarding the work there
She also secured the presence of four
real live Indians from the nearby Pres
bytorian Mission,I together with their
pastor, Rev. H. M. Wagner. The Ind
ians were Mr.. Ed. Grant, Mr.. John
Feathers and Mr.. and Mrs. Billy
George.
Rev. Mr.. Wagner gave an excellent
address en- the work among the indl-
ans and the difficulties. He said that
the greatest difficulty was that the
Indians thought Of Christianity as the
White Mans religion, and of all White
Men as Christians. But when they
came to deal with the White Man in
actual every day life they see a great
difference between the practice ano
the teaching of the Christian princi
pies. They often say There's 50 ant
So he white man, he keeps big store
Why he no go church? He big cheat
Christians no good indians who un
dcrstand English as well as we, 81
On our street curbings and white peo
pie passing by make fun of them thinl
ing they do not understand. The grea
est hindrance to Christian work among
them is the treatment they receiv
frsm the White Man.
An invitation was extended to tn
fifty or more young people presen
from the Methodist and Baptis
churches, to visit the mission and be
come better acquainted with the Inc
ians and their work. The climax c
the service was reached when two c
the Indians, Mr.. Grant and Mr.. Featf
} ers, sang "Stand Up for Jesus"
, the Shoshone language and Mr.. Georg
followed with a fervent prayer. Ever
one went away with greater appr
ciation of the work being done at tn
Mission, and with deeper interest
our next-door neighbCrs.

UNION REVIVAL SERVICES

Special Union services between the
Methodist and Baptist churches of this
city will open on Thursday evening Of
this week, when union prayer meet
ing will be held in the Baptist church.
Mrs. Taylor the wife Of the evangel-
ist will have charge Of this service and
from that hour the campaign will be
on.
Evangelist Taylor will not arrive un-
til week later, March 9th, accompan-
led by his singer, when the services
will begin with full swing. These
meetings will continue for one month
being held in the Methodist Episcopal
church. put it is doubtful if that build
ing will hold half the people who will
want to hear this famous evangelist,
Wherever he has held a series of
special services, hundreds have decid-
ed to live christian life, and in the
towns not nearly as large as Blackfoot
many hundreds have Joined the differ
ent churches.
This writer does not knew to which
church Mr.. Taylor belongs, nor is this
denominational effort but united
effcrt upon the part of the patrons
and christian workers of these church
es to get men and women to lead 6
christian life and let them seek churcl
membership wherever they are mos
at hcme 1t is probable that the Sun
day services will have to be held dowr
town to accommodate larger audienc,
than any church could possibly handle

chants have their seasons Of cash sale
to secure crowds. and get bargains
The church is now setting aside
month to gather in additional member
and show people the way of life.
