GREAT REVIVAL AT THE STATE
w, J. HALE.


For the first time in the history
Of Tennessee a revival has been
held at the State Prison. 1t has
been in progress now since last
week and has been under the direct
supervision of Rev. w. S. Ellington,
D. D., pastor of the First Baptist
Church, and Rev. N. H. Plus, D. D.,
the superintendent of Teacher Train
ing Course at the National Baptist
Publishing Board. From the re-
suits already shown, this revival has
proven Tremendous religious sue
cess. Strong men have been made
to weep and the hardest criminals,
whose records for crime stand on
the books in hundreds of court
houses have made a complete sur
render and confessed a faith in
Christ. A few nights ago the
meeting was at such fever that it
was with difficulty that the two
conductors were able to separate
themselves and even after they had
gone the prison walls sounded with
oCh5o NhaS InOJ ndNO DCOu taught
under the direction of DR.. Plus who
leads this part of the service each
night, The soul stirring sermons
and plan simply gospel that have
been expounded by Rev. Ellington
have caught like wild fire. A rec
ord breaker in conversions was
noticeable after the third night as
more than eighty souls had been
made happy. Chaplain Reagan has
expressed himself as more than
highly pleased with the high class
services conducted. Testimonial
meetings have been frequent in
which a free expression from sinners
as we'll as those who have protested
the faith has been had The meet
ing is to close tonight when the final
results will be known.

BRAIe WAlPURGlS NIGHT

The students OF the College Ger
man Department celebrated Walpur-
gis night on the 3Oth of April. AT
supper time a gay procession OF about
fifty students accompanied by a few
teachers left Ladies' Hall. The stu

different characters in the books read
during the year. Martin Luther and
his wife, Joan Of Arc. William Tell
Mephistopheles and DR.. Fausius were
among the distinguished guests.
The procession marched to a n ar
by hill, singing as they went the
beautiful German songs. AS they ap-
proached the hill they saw a bright
fire burning high up on the top about
which tho witches were having q
wild dance. II seemed the veritable
witches dance on the Brocken. At
the nearer approach of the party the
witches fled but Mephistopheles
politely stepped forward and invited
them to share In the feast which he
had prepared for his friends. AT Il
reassuring call from him the witches
come back and were most friendly IN
helping serve the gay party.
After being thus Hospitality refresh
ed by his satanic majesty. songs were
sung and stories told. until all too
soon the hour came for the return.
With lighted torches the company bad
