Speaking of Professor Riley and
His Trail OF the Robbers" W. Y.
Quisenberry, well known to all bap-
lists OF this section says:
Personally i want to urge. in the
name Of the Master. that all who pos
sibly can--both pastors and laynen--
viii attend this meeting, and that
each of us who attend, and these who
cannot. will make special PRAYER for
the power OF the Holy Ghost 10 re
upon each service of this laymen's
meeting We need. most OF all, the
mighty power of God Ia enlarge our
vision and 10 deepen our consecra-
tom and to create a passion for the
salvation of a lost world"

The evening session will Re closed
with an address by DR.. 8. c. Mitcheii.

Baptist Men"
In the opinion Of the many Pap
tist laymen of the State before whom
plans for this meeting have been DIS
enssed, and who have seen the tenta-
tive program, the present meeting Is
the most important meeting 10 winch
the Baptists OF Virginia have been IN
vited In years.
That the meeting will be largely at
tended is assured. Those promoting
the meeting were fortunate In select
ing a time at which many of the
most prominent Baptist layTnen OF
Virginia business and professional
men. are in Richmond for the Spring
Trade Week.
Tho Better Acquaintance Week of
the Richmond Trade Extension hu-
reau, now on. probably brought many
to Richmond. many local Baptists
believe. who possibly would not
otherwise see their way clear TO
come TO Richmond for the Laym $
convention,
