Prominent Speakers Coming
For Local Bible Conferences

A new name has been added to the
galaxy of world famed speakers who are
to assemble in Washington from No
vember p to q, Inclusive, for tlfe World
Bible Conference. This Is Rev. DR.. Frank
Gunsauius. the widely known Chicago
clergyman, one OF the foremost pulpit
orators in America.
DR., Gunsaulus is only one among a
number OF widely known clergymen who
viii speak at the conference meetings
at the First Congregational Church.
Others include Rev. DR.. Newell Dwight
Hilhs, Rev. s. ID. Gordon. Rev. Drs. S.P.
Cadman. Rev. Charles Erdman, Rev. w.
w. Bustard, Rev. NJ. B. Williams, and
Rev. 6. A. Johnston Ross.
One Of the most timely features OF the
conference program will be the talks of
DR.. Cobern on the conformity Of modern
scientific discoveries to Biblical state
ments. DR.. Cobern is a-lecturer on arch
eology, and he accompanied some OF the
expeditions which brought to light papyri
throwing new light on Scriptural facts
All these discoveries. he asserts. tend to
confirm Biblical history, and in no way
discount it.
A big drawing card will be Rev. DR..
John Henry Jowett, pastor of the Fifth
Avenue Presbyterian Church, in New
York City, and before that one Of Lon
don's famous preachers. DIR. JoWett Is
regarded as one Of the worlds foremost
Commentators on the Bible.
In addition to his renown as an au-
thor and exegete he is a pulpit orator
of rare charm. He talks in a conversa-
tional tone. uses few gestures, but the
spell Of his musical voice, and his quiet
earnestness has drawn crowds to his
church in New York that made overflow
meetings necessary. Long after his COM
ing to that city this condition prevailed
and even yet standing room is at a pre-
mium before the hour OF his morning
services.
All book lovers are acquainted with the
Quiet Talks OF the Rev. s. d. Gordon.
He published the first one. quiet Talks
on Power about fourteen years ago,
and that proved so popular that others
followed. But DR.. Gordon. too, has a
wide following as a preacher as well as
a writer. He Is q Y. NJ. c. A. worker,
and his forceful personality has a spe-
cial appeal to men.
Much OF the preliminary work In Wash
ington for the conference has been done
by Rev. Lincoln G. Dickey. He is the
business manager OF the movement which
is to give the conference here. and later
in number Of other principal cities Of
this country.

have asked for Colonial Sheriton, or

Is not hard to discover.
The Chippendale furniture is more ex-

He showed me a collection OF curtain
drapery nets-siN or seven hundred diff

on a long brass rod where you could

drapery nets range in design from the
finest lacelike tracery to a rather heavy

vary from q blush white to a deep
