PREACHERS DECIDE
TO CHANGE PULP|TS
Believe Such Action Will Be
Incentive to Revival
Meetings.
START TOM 0 RROW

AS an incentive to the coming union
evangelistic meetings, which start De
cember 28, the ministers of officials in
charge of the meeting have decided
upon a plan of the interchanging of
pilpits on Sunday evenings throughout
the remainder of the month and the
early part of next month. BY this
interchange they are of the opinion
that the masses will become better ac-
Quainted with the issue of the evan
gelistic movement, and at the same
time the presence of ministers of diff
feren+ denominations Will tend to make
the movement more interdenomina-
tiOnal.
Tomorrow evening the experiment
will be tried at the following churches:
East Main street Friends, Central
Christian. Whitewater Friends, United
rethren, St. PaUl's Lutheran. Second
Presbyterian, First NJ Z, Reid Memo
rial and First Baptist. Next Sunday
evening the remainder OF the churches
will change minister's Each Sunday
it is heing arranged to completely
change the speakers at the churches.
To Decide On Lot.
The committee of One Hundred
headed by E. Sdgar Nicholson, will
i a
noon at 3 o'clock to take up the cur
rent phases OF the campaign. The final
decision as to the location and size Of
the proposed tabernacle is expected at
this meeting OF the committee Every
member is expected to be present.
In connection with the tabernacle
discussion an interesting talk by Rich
ard SedgwiCk, who recently made a
trip to MUncie, Ind. where similar
meetings are being held, will be made
tomorrow afternoon. In Muncie the en-
thusiasts by voluntary labor erected a
tabernacle with 5000 seating capacity
in two days. 1t is planned to make a
similar building in Richmond upon
plans followed by the Muncie commit
tee.
A number of other important mat
ters will also be taken up at the meet
ing.

in juries that might have been fatal.
None of the occupants was thrown

This entire rumpus about Thorpe -

more than half the schools in the
country men are admitted to various

persons may know that they have re-
