The protracted meeting will con-
tinue over Sunday. The interest Is
growing. Some have accepted
Christ and will profess him publicly.
Others are ''not far from the king
dom of God" Still others have
turned away sorrowful, but they
have turned away. Having turned
from the way of salvation through
Christ, to whom shall they go? "For
there is none other name under
heaven given among men, whereby
we must be saved" They have
turned away, because they could
not be persuaded to turn their eyes
from their human weakness and
human failings and to fix them upon
Wesus the Author and fnisher of
our faith" They are honest but
wrong, They are helpless, and
HOPELESS, because they are without
that faith which couples a soul with
the divine power.
Sunday was great day. The
evangelist preached four times.
Some believed. A large audience
attended the mems meeting at 3 p.
m. Specialists pronounced the SER
mon excellent.
On Monday night eighteen who
had been sayed by grace through
faith went down into the water and
were buried with Christ In baptism.
Let US continue to pray and to
teach with the open Bible in hand.
The gospel is the power of God I'M
to salvation to every one that be-
lieveth. Hold up Christ. Make a
gospel appeal, Our God is mighty
to save. Jesus is able to save to
the uttermost them that draw near
unto God through him, seeing he
ever livetb to make intercession fol-
them"

Society.
We we're pleased on Sunday to
have such good audiences both
morning and evening.
Mr.. Alva Ross one of the young
men of our Sunday School, who was
converted three years ago but had
not united with the church, came
forward on Sunday evening and
united with the church. There has
not Sunday passed in the new
year without one or more uniting
with the church and even on We'd
nesday evening at the prayer meet
ing they are taken into the church.
We hope that our ministry will be
one that men are finding God all the
year round. Let US pray that God
might visit US with a years revival.
In a telephone message from our
Bro. Renner of Fowler, he tells US
that the revival in progress for the
fourth week has resulted in $50 con-
versions at the close of the third
week. Rev. Harry Maitland is the
evangelist in charge. Mr.. Maitland
has held meetings in Liberal, Pratt,
Greensburg and Newton in the last
two years and these places report
that they never had such reyivals as
they have had under his ministry
We are hoping that we may be able
to secure him for a date in Meade
next year and have the churches
unite in an effort to have the great
est time in Meade we have ever had.
We bless the Lord for the good
meetings that have been held this
year and we hope that the revival
spirit will continue many months.
You are invited to our services
and youIwill fad a welcome here.

Perchance if men knew how to
sleep they would know how to die,
and to live, and to be born, all as
Nature intended.
Long ere the sun sinks, hush, a
peace, begins to tincture the life of
all things. In the high noon all is
intense activity, whirl and culmina-
of the promise of dawn. At the
very moment of noon there seems to
be an instant's universal sleep; in
another instant the rush of outer life
is resumed. Man, as part of living
physical Nature, shares in all her
program; but in him much of it is
disarranged. Till he returns fully
to Natures plan there must be much
that he cannot understand or enter
into; but he has something that the
lower lives of Nature have not.
When, as sunset draws near, and his
nerves begin to vibrate less and less
intensely to the throb Of solar life,
he feels the touch of the universal
peace, then begin the hours of his
second and deeper life. With the
wane of solar life should wax the
life of his spiritual consciousness.
The hush deepens into night, yet il
is not yet mans hour for sleep,
Something in his body sleeps, ever
as and when the birds do; but no
the cells that reflect through the
higher feeling; their turn comes lat
er yet. Mans body is an ANNA
body, assuredly, but it is more anC
finer than that, because he wht
dwells in it is more and finer thar
that. He is not bound by all tn,
laws that bind the animal. Nov

thought might now reflect the mag

But best Of all are the chapters deal

the paradoxical effects it has upon the
human mind. He tells of soldiers who
would rather be warm around camp
fire within range of the enemy's shrap-
mel than cold and safe further away.
I'm times of war you constantly see
men, and women, too, who, sooner than
suffer discomfort or even lnconvenl-
ence, risk death. The psychology OF
the thing is. | think. that a man knows
very little about being dead, but has
very acute knowledge Of what 1t is TO
be uncomfortable. His brain is not
able to grasp death, but 1t is quite
capable Of informing him that his nm
gers are cold. Often men receive credit
for showing GOODNESS and courage IN
times Of danger when, in reality, they
are not properly aware Of the danger,
and through habit are acting auto

Mr.. Davis praises the spirit of the
