to Lead Better Lives.
The Bromley revival meetings are
still in progress. The interest in the
campaign is growing in really re-
markable manner. The evangelistic
party are getting acquainted with many
OF the leading people of Dickinson, and
are securing support for the enterprise
that is going on at the armory that is
encouraging indeed.
The third lecture to men was listened
to with demonstrations of the greatest
delight and commendation by the fine
audience of men last Sunday afternoon.
1t was generally declared by all the
hearers that it was by far the best of
the.series up to date. Mr.. Bromley was
in high feather and certainly ran the
gamut of platform feats calculated to
entertain and fascinate the apprecia-
tive crowd listening to him.
Masculine pelts were drug on the
market when he finished. and no gather
ing of men ever listened to the follies,
1olbles and sins Of their kind, force
fully and sometimes overwhelmingly
presented, and took it more good na-
turedly than the fellows gathered in the
armory last Sunday afternoon. Re-
peatedly they cheered and persisted in
cheering, until the speaker actually in
terrupted the applause to continue his
lecture.
BY a rising vote they unanimously
requested the evangelist to deliver his
fourth lecture to men only on the COM
ing Sunday. At the close of the lec-
ture, several men responded to the in
yitation of the speaker to accept the
Christian faith and life, made their
way to the front, and engaged in prayer
with the workers there.
Last Sunday evening marked red
letter day in the campaign in point of
! f1ssnHerts. At least Efty made profession
OF determination to become Chris
tians, and presented themselves for
prayer at the front.
On Tuesday afternoon the evangelist
delivered social address to the wives
and mothers Of the city, and III the
evening of the same day preached to a
full house on the occasion of Home
and Family" night. Some twenty
came forward as converts on this occa-
| sion.
One of the top notches in the cam
paien was reached on Thursday when
in the afternoon MIR. Bromley conducted
service commemorating Mother S
Day. - The stores courteously consent
ed to close their doors for two hours in
the afternoon. the banks and profess
sional offices largely followed their ex-
ample. and the employers and employ
ed attended the service in honor of
their mothers. Many hundreds of car
cations were scattered among the moth
ers. and many of the men who could
not secure carnation. were supplied

The address was in keeping with the
announced purpose of the occasion, Mr..
Bromley being at his best, inculca
ting the most beautiful and tender SEN
timents in honor of mothers, that the
large audience had heard in .lone
time. A very appreciative time was
spent, to the profit of all.
The campaign is nearing it's close
and the promoters of it are expressing
themselves AS in every way gratified a,
the splendid results achieved. There
will be considerable number of acces.
sions to the churches which have been
interested in the effort, a large number
who have been members of the churches
will. from now on, according to thei,
declarations. be more interested and
active in the work of the churches. The
entire moral atmosphere of the city is
uPlifted. and the closing days of the
campaign are counted success.
