'sThree Laws. -

Rev. c. P. Meeker in his discourse at
the tent meeting on Cedar and Hoffman
streets gave three laws operating
which show the point of religious pro-
crastination. These are the laws of
habit. distraction and divine procedure.
In speaking of habit the speaker held
up his fingers and said they would be
all thumbs were he TO play the piano
near by, but his hands were sufficiently
skillful to follow the word of a Phila-
delphia mechanic in his younger man
hoon. Clearing eighty stumps from an
acre of Michigan land gave him enough
skill with an axe to win the admiration
of a woodsman who he later won to
Christ.
Mr.. Meeker is an eastern college man
with vigorous personality and admir-
able voice together with his clear
thinking analysis of scripture carries
convincing weight to all of his state
ments. There have been already many
appreciate results from the meetings
