 Next Sunday, October 4, the full round of services i'll the Methodist chucrh will be resumed and without using any special program, it is hoped to make that date a general Rally Day in every department of church service; the morning and evening regular wor- ship; the Sunday school and the Epworth League prayer meeting. In spite of the many attractions of out-of- door-life through the summer, the attendance at the several services has been up to the summer average of past years, possibly a little above. But there IS ample room for improvement and now with the advent of autumn and the coming also of the longer even- ings, it is hoped there may be marked advance. The regular evening service next Sunday night, will be a lecture on Oberammergan and the Passion Play illustrated by more than 90 colored stereopticon pictures. Of course no admission will be charged. It will be entirely an occasion of worship. The usual offerings will be received and applied to the expense of the service ,,
