WOMEN PRAY FOR HUSBANDS

BE steadfast in your faith in the
Lord. Avoid the temptations Of
worldly things. Don't be discouraged
over failure nor get the big head
because Of success. That is the devils
business. Give God the glory and
take none for yourself. Draw a dis
tinct line between the church and the
world. Live such Christian lives that
your neighbors won't have to consult
church books to find II you are mem
bers."

Ma" Sunday babe farewell to an au-
dience OF 5000 women at the Audi
torium yesterday afternoon. The
meeting was curtailed because Mrs.

The trail-hittlng Is only a small part
Of the good that will be the outcome OF
these meetings." she said. THE strength
ening of faith and the effect on your
prohibition campaign next fall cannot be
reckonod. This Is a cleaning up time for
Christ"
Mrs. Sunday refuted the assertion that
all good effects Of the campaign were due
to the splendid organization OF the Sun
day party I'VE neve rthink ofour or
ganisation as such. II Is the growth OF
years. II Il seems big to the outsider. It
doesn't seem big to US. ! want you TO un-
derstand that we didn't sit down and con-
coct this organization.
Credit for Your Aims.
I'VE didn't accomplish all we wanted
to I'm Omaha. but we're thankful the Lord
doesn't hold us TO account for what we
accomplish, but for what we try to do.
We wanted 70 bring the word OF Christ
to every man, woman and child in Omaha
and to make Omahn a brighter, cheerier,
better place In which to live"
The Rev. TITUS Lowe made the plea
for BILLY" Sundays collection. THE
work Of this living prophet Of God In our
city will tell on your lives and that OF
the generations 20 come. Omaha never
does things by halves. Let us not be
ashamed of this collection"
The greater part OF the meeting was
given over to an old-fsshioned praise
meeting. Gray-haired, weeping mothers
thanked God for sons who had been saved
during the campaign. Fathers. mothers.
sisters. brothers, grandparents, relations
in law, friends. neighbors, all were listed
In the category OF the saved by the
praise givers. The preponderance of
thanks were for saved husbands, which
called forth the exclamation. "Oh, these
husbandsl Would that we had them all
lin the kingdom" from Ma" Sunday.

A High school girl. with tears in her
eyes. thanked God for strengthened faith
and when another High school girl. the
last who offered testimony. stated that
she was praying for the mayor of Omaha

many praying for him." said Ma"
