THIS CHURCH is FILLED.

Some time ago the Christian Her
aid asked several pastors of large
city churches how they succeeded in
filling their houses of worship. The
following reply from DR.. Mark A.
Matthews of Seattle is both interest.
ing and suggestive. He says in part:
First This church has been filled
for nearly eleven years. Most of tho
time it is crowded, and scores and
hundreds have been turned away.
The evening audiences number any.
where from $500 to $500. We can
only seat about 5000. The rest have
to stand or be crowded out. The aud
fence has in it from fifty-five to sew
enty per cent of men. Second. The
results accomplished are entirely due
to the operations of the Holy Spirit
We pray much, expect much and get
much Third. The pure, simple Cos
pei is preached, Sinai and Calvary
are held up to the people. The vicar
ious atonement is emphasized the
sacrifice of Christ is presented daily;
His deity and His mediatorial work
are kept before the people. The whole
gospel, and nothing but the gospel, is
preached. Fourth. We make the Cos
pei apply to every condition, circum-
stance and point of mans life. We
deal with his social, domestic, COM
mercial, political and civic life, with
the gospel, and only the gospel Fifth.
Every service is an evangelistic serv-
ice. We never preach the gospel or
finish sermon without making an
appeal for immediate decisions and
confessions of Christ. At every serv'
ice We urge men to accept Christ and
join the church. Sixth. We do not
have a sermonette after a long musi
cal program of questionable ecclesiasu
ical music. Every member of the
choir must be a Christian and only de
votional hymns are used, but that pro
gram is kept in its minor place. Ser
mons are not dictated by the clock

YOUNG FARMERS HOLD
MASS MEETING.
Boys and Girls Clubs of Brazos coun-
ty Meet at Court House and Listen
to Interesting Addresses.

| A mass meeting of the members of
the Boys Corn Club, the Girls To-
mato Clubs and those interested in
advanced methods of farming, was
held this morning at the court house
under direction of Brazos County
Farm Demonstration A. w. Buchanan.
The attendance was large and the
brief but intensely practical talks
made by the speakers were given the
closest attention.
After an Introductory by Mr.. A. w.
Buchanan, DR.. w. F. Proctor, state
supervisor of the farm demonstration
work, took the floor.
DR.. Proctor is famous for the inter
esting manner in which he presents
his theme, and his wide experience
and thorough knowledge of farm work
enable him to drive his points home.
He pointed out the advantage of the
Boys Corn Club and the Girls Toma-
to Club have over the old-fashioned
Hickory Club" in making better boys
and girls and more capable and in.
dustrious farmers. The result OF
teaching boys and girls things worth
while cannot be estimated. The work
of these clubs will rejuvenate the
farm life of the South.
L. NJ. Hewitt, traffic manager Of the
Bryan and Central Texas Interurban
railroad, made brief talk pointing
out the inevitable success that came
from choosing the right methods and
carrying ahead the work with determ-
nation. He congratulated Miss Locke
on the results that she has accomp-
lished with canning and tomato clubs
in this county.
Prof. o. H. Sellars, director of the
correspondence courses Of the A. and
NJ. College, made an address which
contained revelations in cotton grow
ing, and simple methods Of overcom-
ing discouraging and seemingly insur-
mountable difficulties.
c. NJ. Evans of the A. and NJ. extern
sion department, showed where scien-
tific methods in farming were not
mere theory but common sense obser-
vations. The fields talk to the intel
ligent farmer, and plants cry out
against wrong methods of culture, or
proclaim their needs that they who
have cars can hear and eyes can see
and profit.
County School Supt T. w. Parker
welcomed the gathering and spoke Of
the value OF taking interest in the eff
forts which the government was max
ing to aid the farmer.
]. Webb Howell of the Bryan Cot
ton Oil Mill, a gentleman who has
done a great deal to help the farmers
of the county, described the great ma
tional corn show which the city of
Dallas secured at the cost of $4,000.
A special train will be run from this
county.
After an interesting talk by H. H.
Williams, the meeting adjourned into
the yard where a photograph of the
gathering was made by Photographer
Smith.
Mr.. Will Holmes presented all who
attended with complimentary tickets

There is quite a nervous tension
over the Mexican situation, and an
air of expectancy prevails throughout
the country. Something definite will
no doubt be done soon. Present con-
ditions in Mexico are a disgrace to
civilization and should not be allowed
to continue. 1t is earnestly to be
hoped, however, that the situation can
be solved without intervention on the
part of the United States. Interven'
ton means war. and war is hell.

self an ideal host when he dispensed
hospitality to party of friends in
the form Of well-appointed dinner,
an affair which by all of the partak-
ers has been designated as not only
very enjoyable because of the partici.
patton of such repast, but also be-
cause it was most congenially arrang-
ed as to the selection of guests. 1t
was farewell courtesy rendered his
most intimate girl friends and Mr..
Pendleton named as the honoree Miss
Frances Chance, who is at all times
considered social favorite. The din
jner was planned for thorough enjoy!
ment and no attempt at elaboration
was manifest, the decorations being
limited to a profusion of snowy white
oleanders and ferns, which \ were
gracefully arranged in brown wick
er basket, the handle OF which was
bowed with pretty white maline and
which occupied the center of the
table. There was just one thing to
mar the pleasure of the evening and
that was the knowledge on the part
OF the guests of the early departure
of Mr.. Pendleton for his former home
in Temple, where 1t is his intention
to reside in the future. He has made
scores OF friends during the year he
has made Bryan his home, and it was
fitting occasion on which to honor
those who have particularly shared
his pleasures and figured prominently
in his association. To partake Of such
dinner was pleasure enough to be
afforded for one evining, but the host
was not content that this should be
the finale OF the occasion and imme-
diately after the dinner the guests
were asked to form a party to the
picture show, which proves always to
be choice diversion. Those sharing
in these pleasures were: Miss Frances
Chance and Mr.. Pendleton, Miss Mary
Ross Parker and Mr.. W. ]. Coulter,
Miss Clara Mawhinney and Mr.. win
Saunders, Miss Willie McDougald and
Mr.. John Wick, Miss Rowena Rhodes
and Mr.. Osborn Johnson.
