Free Will Offering Taken Every Evening for Ex- penses of Meeting Now Half Way Up High School Students Attend

There were two nOtlceaD Dle features about the revival meeting of Brown and Curry at the reformed skating rink yesterday. The first one was the large attendance of High school stu dents at the night meeting, and the second was the fact that the skillet collections have reached $500, or about half of the total expense of the meet ing. This is considered exceedingly good, in view of the fact that the meeting has been going on but little more than d week. The High school students paid the closest attention to the sermon of the evangelist, who preached upon the subject, One Thing Thou Lackest." They also gave great support to Prof. Curry in the music with their en- thusiastic singing of the gospel songs of the evening.
 The attendance last night was again i exceptionally good and in response to the invitation to find the one thing lacking" about thrty-six re- sponded and went forward to shake hands with the preacher The after service was especially touching.
 
 There will be no services today. in accordance with the Saturday GUS tom, but the coming Sunday will see an eXua effort. The salient points oi the sermon last evening were ex- pressed in the following crisp sen tencess selected &t random from the sermon:
 T believe I can say to someone in this audience just what Jesus said in the long ago: One thing thou lacilest.
 Tt was just along here where Jesus took little children in his arms and blessed them
 Do you know, very few folks come to Christ after they have passed mid dle age?
 The large majority of people who come to Christ are converted before they reach 20 years of age.
 Tor reach q child and it's soui plus life
 Jesus Christ deserves the best you've got.
 T pray God that you yolng folks vii stand true to God and give Him the best you've got. Ring true
 There are those who have an idea that religion is for poor folks. and some imagine that if you have lux uries you have happiness, but God never made a soul so small that it could be satisfied with gold. If you've got much money, you friends.
 Money cannot purchase q clear conscience; money cannot drive away death.
 Your happiness will not depend on what set or circle recognize you, but it depends on the character you have built
 God pity the man or woman who thinks the cry of the soul can be sat isfied by the ring of the gold.
 T would like to see the time come when men and women would get up and go in the work Of Jesus Christ
 The most dignified thing you ever saw was a corpse.
 You never in all of your life could be placed in so much noise but that Jesus Christ will hear you if you pray.
 Tt is wonderful that Jesus Christ knows who needs calling down as well as who needs calling up. q like to see folks get Christ and take Him home
 Give us religion that's got heart in it.
 If you are a Christian, you know it; if you are not. you know it: if you don't know what is the matter i just kneel down and ask God to tell you. and He will tell you.
 There is something sadly wrong with a mans conviction when he won't come outboldly and take a stand on the side of Jesus Christi
