memories Of the day will have passed
away The trip will bring Lakeland

we need them, and will In every way
be productive Of much good, and the

left an amazingly large number OF
Eaptists, for instance. that the Bap-

a larger number of people with a

surprisingly large number of people
who had come to admire him from
hearing him speak at a banquet or Il
trades assembly meeting.
Peoria has between fifty and sixty
churches; no one was staying away
from church for lack Of church Of
his own denomination as may be the
case in smaller towns. They were
staying away because it was hard to
