to the utmost to listen to the grand
chorus of about two hundred and fif-

ium Rev. Henrik Voldahl preached.
In the afternoon Rev John N
Brown, of Beloit, Wisconsin, deliv
cred a sermon. 1t was a very able
sermon, he basing his arguments on
his own personal experience in lie.
He declared the necessity of more
English services in the church and
made a call for young people to
enter the ministry. He was follow
ed by Rev. M. e. Waldeland who
further discussed the same topics.
At 600 p. m. at the church an ideal
Young Peoples League meeting was
conducted by Miss Ida Vigen OF
Sioux City. Special music was in
terspersed during this session.
The closing sessions held at the
Auditorium Sunday evening were
somewhat cut short by storm that
arose and beat upon the roof of the
Auditorium, making hearing impOs-
Sible. However, during the qulet
spells of the storm short talks were
given and songs were rendered by
the large chorus.
1t was all together a successful
meeting and Canton people are proud
that they had this important as

that all were satisfied with it's sue
