Large Audiences - Many CONVEX

Of Progress.
Rev. Chas. S. Knight

Editor Citizen, Berea, KY.
Since our last letter we have held
meetings in Dryhill, Wooton, and Cut
shin and are just now in the midst
of very interesting services in Viper,
on the new line of railroad through
Perry County. At Dryhill we were
warmly received by large congrega-
tion of young people who after listen
ing to several fine musical selections
splendidly rendered by our excellent
talking machine, a number of recita-
tions and an illustrated lecture on
better homes, schools, churches, farms
and roads-returned the next night
with many of the older people to hear
our lecture on Habits, and Sanitation
and Health. The third day being Sun
day we preached to very large at
tentive audience at ten a. m. and in
the evening after showing pictures on
the subjects of temperance and the
Life of Christ we preached revival
sermon and gave the invitation for all
who were willing to forsake sin and
accept Christ to come forward. Over
forty responded, many of them she'd
ding bitter tears Of repentance and
we have every reason to believe all
were utterly sincere in their decision
to follow the Lord.
The people of Wooton having had a
taste of Extension work last year
were eager TO welcome us and came
out in large numbers.
In the last meeting over twenty-five
came out on the Lords side.
Next we moved over TO Cutshin anC

FUNERAL OF SENATOR JOHN.

FUNERAL OF SENATOR JOHN
SON
Enormous crowds of distinguished
citizens of Alabama gathered at
Birmingham, Ala. for the funeral of
Joseph F. johnson who died last
week at Washington. A large delega-
ton Of Senator'S and Congressman
we're present.
SENATOR JOHNsONS SUCCESS
SOR
The political situation at Washing
ton is materially effected by the death
Of Senator johnson which takes one
from the very slender Democratic
majority in the Senate. The consti-
tuition gives to the Senate the power
to judge the right of Senators to hold
their seats. There is no appeal from
the decision Of the Senate on this
point The situation is complicated
by the fact that Alabama has just
adopted a constitutional amendment
providing for direct election of her
Senators. And there is also a special
provision to the amendment of the
constitution which provides that the
amendment shall not affect the cleo
ton Of Senators chosen before this
amendment becomes valid

Nobody, Berea College just grew

When this question was being dis
cussed few years ago, Brother Fee

never knew which one he thought
il was.
That conversation occurred at the
woodpile, where we were chopping
wood after our return from a preach
ing campaign in a nearby neighbor-
hood. We agreed that a movement
should be started at once to inaugur-
ate such a valuable adjunct. The A.
NJ. A. readily responded to our sugges-
ton and commissioned primary teach
ers to come on and break ground. VIM.
Lincoln and / think G. b. Waters
from 0berlin were among the first.
Then later, Rev. J. A. r. Rogers, an
Oberlin College and Theological
graduate, a very acceptable preacher
heard the Masters call to leave an
easier field and come down to Beres
and organize and manage a higher
grade school. He became its Princi'
pal His wife and others were his
assistant teachers.
This school soon became so popular
under the very enthusiastic and eff
eient management of Mr.. and Mrs
Rogers that it drew numerous stu
dents in from the Blue Grass region
and, soon, had to enlarge its schoo
rooms.
It's growth was so promising tina
it's friends soon felt the time ha'

That women cannot keep secrets is
q fallacy and one striking proof Is in
the fact that Lloyd-George employs

Premier AsQuith also employs a

men on his staf, Percy Ellington. the
