HOLINESS CONVENTION
AT FISHER MEMORIAL

The Holiness convention, now in
session at Fisher Memorial church. is
Of unusual order. II has no wild-fire

iconoclastic crusade against the
churches OF our city or OF any denom-
nation said c. G. yalade, OF the
Fisher Memorial church.
1T impresses stranger as little diff
ferent from al old-fashioned revival.
The attendance seems to be from
all parts OF the city and from the out
lying districts, and Is made up OF min
listers as we'll as members OF various
churches. The Methodfsts. however.
are evidently In the lead since the
doctrine Of holiness which Is empha-
sized Is the acknowledged Methodist
doctrine
The convention is arranged for and
sustained by Detroit association
that is organized for this purpose.
Henry c. Morrison, who Is here for
the first time, is not only a noted pull
pit orator, but is the editor OF the
most largely circulated religious paper
in the south. and Is also the president
Of Asbury college at Wilman, Ky.
Joseph II. Smith, his associate In
the convention, is well known in Mich

The vote on woman suffrage was

TO say that the activity OF the saloon

II is disappointing that. In so intel
