the early part of the service the Rev.

Shurtz with fine umbrella as a token
of esteem from the members of the
church. Later ne was given a liberal
purse of money from his many friends.
Brother Shurtz was visibly affected,
but acknowledged the gift in a few
well chosed words saying it was the
motive that prompted the act he ap-
preciated as much as the gift. He then
entered upon his sermon for the even
ing, using as his theme The River,
The Wilderness, The Mountain God
was with him in the presentation of
the word, and the vast audience was
made to feel its power. Strong men
trembled. After an earnest appeal
from the pastor, the chorus sang an
invitation hymn, and the altar was
soon filled with earnest seekers for
salvation. Mr.. Norman Turner sang
Tell Mother I'll Be There" in very
impressive manner. The invitation
was still extended. The very windows
of Heaven were opened. Men women
and children pressed their way TO the
altar, to the number of seventy. Gods
Spirit was there in mighty power.
There were prayers of thankfulness
and songs of rejoicing. Services this
