The people who live in this part of the world, and who have been brought up under Christian influences, can hardly realize what it might mean to hear the Gospel for the first time. The strange sensation, however, is being prepared for the Sunday evening ser vice at the First Presbyterian church. Rev. George P. Pierson,- a missionary, who has given his life to the church in Japan, will speak as if his audience were a group. of. Japanese who were hearing the story of the life of Jesus for the first time MT Pierson is spending a year in this country after a long period of service in Japan and comes from Elizabeth, W. J., where he is making his headquarters during his vacation period. He will speak both morning and evening at the church.
