Revival at Methodist Church Continues

The revival services that are being
held at the Methodist church are bring
ing good results in getting the Chris
tian people of Vinita awakened to their
spiritual state and arousing them to
doing something to show that they are
Christians. Big crowds We're out to
hear DR.. Mcintosh deliver two of
among the strongest gospel sermons
ever preached in Vinita, yesterday. A
great number were turned away last
night on account of lack of standing
room. Yesterday afternoon DR.. Nc
Intosh talked to quite a number of
children and young people and several
signified their intention of identifying
themselves with the Christian people
and joining some church of the city.
Last night the Epworth league held
conservation service and a large
number of leaguers committed them
selves to doing some thing definite dur
ing this meeting to help some one get
right. A mems prayer meeting was
held just before the evening service
and it was decided to hold them every
evening from 7:10 to 1926 before the
services Afternoon prayer meetings
are being held in different parts of the
city. There was large crowd at this
mornings service at the church. This
looks like Vinita was going to have
great revival now
DR.. Mcintosh is preaching strong
practical. gospel sermons, Rev Ed
Phillips is conducting lively song sery

make them appeal to you.

A recent bulletin OF the bureau oi

Its destructive work is indicated by
the fading greenish brown and red

Jesus and took pains to see him. His
reward for his pains, was salvation
here and hereafter.
Another feature of this incident was
the attitude of the people. When
Jesus became interested he told the
man to come down and he would go
visit his home. When he went, they
said he has gone to be guest of a
man who is a sinner" They said!"
Who are "they?" The class in every
community who with murmuring in
their hearts, are ready to cry out
against the man or woman who Is seek
ing Jesus, through the medium of a
life of service and of sacrifice. They"
are those who so easily find fault with
others, but never realize that they too
live In glass houses.

zACCHEUS' DESIRE
TO see JESUS
Subject Of Sunday Morning Sermon
BY Or. A. =. Watkins At Main
Street Methodist.

Dir. A. +. Watkins sermon Sunday
morning was from the text found in
., and 10th verses of 10 chapter
of Luke. which contain the account of
Zaccneus' desire to see Jesus and the
results thereof.
Luke was business" man and 1t
was he alone who found in this Incl
dent of tax gatherer's effort to learn
more of the Christ, anything worthy
Of record. Zaccheus will always be
known as the little" man. The incl
dent as related by Luke has greatly
impressed the thought of humanity.
There are many difficulties in the
way of being religious-some men find
1t n.lch harder than others. but the
leading of a genuinely religious life
is difficult matter. and to all men,
Jordan is hard road to travel"
Thoreau has said, that In morals
there is no such thing as sliding, ex-
eept back-sliding. Some men, how
ever, naturally have much harder
time In keeping respectfully religious
than others. And we have all heard
che remark "if that man Is ever a
good man he deserves great deal Of
credit" Every man Is disposed to
think he has harder time than any
one else, in maintaining christian
character. Men won't admit that they
hoL 70. NnbI
Lord. we are miserable Sinners" but
the man who utters this so freely,
would be slow to say, oh! Lord am
a miserable thief or "a miserable
liar" There are many men who
seem to boast of their high temper. but
few who ever admit bad judgment
Zaccheus was a tax collector and the
temptations of his busenss as carried
on in his day were strong. Oppres-
sion. a great crime against ones fell
lows, was easy if not incidental, in
that business, in his day
There are greater temptations in
some kinds of business than in others,
and the elements of common honesty
are necessary to safely qualify man
for every business. While this is
true, there Is no man today whose
business necessarily offers greater
temptations than did the business of
this man who sought and found
Iesus. and to whose house salvation
came when Jesus entered in. Ac-
emulation of money is snare, and
many soul is lost because of it. It
rs better to walk into heaven than to
ride in an automobile into hell There
are men today, members of the church.

cause of their worldly gains and the
indulgence of the desires Of pleasure

the success of Gulfport's effort will
be a blow to Hattiesburg, and one
which can be warded off by one factor
only, namely: The Hattiesburg Trac-
tion Company, In whose hands the
retention in Hattiesburg, this annual
encampment for the moment, rests.
Members of the committee claim
that the great embarrassment
caused the local committee by their
failure to secure the construction of
the line as promised by them, on the
strength of the letter from the Trac-
ton Company, puts them in position
where they cannot consistently resist
any effort to remove the encampment
after this years meeting, unless
they can get renewed assurance that
the line will be built.
In addition to other reasons, they
say they could not continue to bear
the expense Of keeping vehicles ply
ing between the end of the car line,
as now planned, and the grounds a
half mile away. In order to keep faith
with the B. Y. P. U. Board vehicles
will be provided this year. 1t is claim
ed that every citizen of Hattiesburg
Is interested in the success of this en-
campment, and that certainly the Trac-
ton Company is vitality interested.
If any failure of that company to
keep It's written agreement to build
Its line to the encampment grounds
should threaten the loss of the en-
campment as a permanent feature, land
work disaster to the Woman's. College
as well. it is argued that 1t becomes
the duty of the Traction Company to
give immediate guaranty to the local
committee that the car line
will positively be built as
promised as soon as possible. It Is also
claimed that should 1t be urged that
this cannot now, for any cause, be
done In time for this years encamp
ment the making of such guaranty
will be accepted as an atonement fol
existing lapses. The News Is informed
that such action would re-enlist the
energetic efforts of this committee t.
retain the encampment as a perma
nent feature Of the social, educationa
and religious life of Hattiesburg
otherwise, members of the commit
tee. heretofore most active in THU
good work, say they will make no re
sistance to the effort to remove tn,
encampment elsewhere. The com
mitteemen feel they have not beel
kept faith with. and that the Trac
ton Company by breaking it's writer
word with them have placed them II
a false light before their brethren o
the church. and they are both hur
and resentful at the treatment the,
have received.
