Seven Weeks Campaign;
Slough GiUen SIS, 300

The lights are out on the sawdust
rtail after a midnight wind-up yes
terday in which an even total of Z 900
trail hitterS was summed up and Il
free will offering of approximately
$1,000 was raised.
for DIR. Henry w. Slough and his party
of workers.
When the evangelist began his SER
mon last night before the biggest
audience of the seven weeks he had
6.914 trail hitterS on the records and
he kept the service running until he
got the full number he wanted at 11.30
o'clock. After the prayer of confess

paign was given by the distribution of
the card souvenirs from the party to
the trail hitters and the words of cheer
and thanks from the members of the
executive committee and the ministers
OF the cooperating churches.
DIR. Slough Leaves for Home
DR.. Slough left the city at 1.25 this
morning to spend Christmas with his
wife and the six little Stoughlets."
Other members of the party left dur
ing the day for their various homes for
the holiday season and a rest before
the opening of the campaign at AL
toona.
The greater part of each service yes
terday was taken up by gathering the
subscriptions and urging the audiences
by local ministers. Beginning with
calls for large amounts. they worked
down to the dollar subscriptions, after
which the pans were passed for the
silver offerings. There were four gifts
of 800. several fifties. almost a score
of twenty-fives dozens of tens and
hundreds of five-dollar bills. The one
dollars flowed in SO fast that the COL
lectors were swamped with them and
could not take time to read the names
on the envelopes as was done with the
larger gifts which came in more slowly
at the beginning of the collection.
The bulk of the offering aside from
the pan collections was made in special
envelopes with a space for the sigma
ture of the donor. Those persons who
