Night Makes Hit
FOR BENEFIT OF BAN
May Be Repeated in Wright Opera
House

Saturday evening in the college
chapel students and young men of
the city gave minstrel show and
band concert for the benefit of the
college band before an audience
which taxed the capacity OF the
Auditorium. 1t was an evening OF
rollicking entertainment and the
crowd was kept in high spirits
throughout the performance by the
succession of song and jest.
The band led by Mr. Ray Tomlin
was present and rendered several se-
lections while instrumental selec-
tions were played by Messrs. Chas.
o. Ward of the First State Bank,
James Stauber and Frank Whiting

duet by the two former were especi-

Thomas Blaisdell. Bryson MdCloy,

brought down the house and Verne

at the piano.
The proceeds of the evenings per-
formance will be applied for the pay
ment of the band suits which were
recently bought from a local mer-
chant. The Saturday evening show
was so popular and so well attended
that it will probably be repeated
with changes in the Wright Opera
House in the near future.

sLATER's COOPERATIVE PLAN

Fred Slater, the progressive
clothing merchant has planned a
novel sale for next week which
should attract big patronage. 1t is
unique inasmuch as all of the five
churches of the city will share in
the proceeds of the daily sales and
practically take charge of Fred S
new clothing emporium during the
first five days of the week. Begin
ming with Monday the Metho ats,
Episcopalians, Catholics. Be ,.sts
and Presbyterians will take charge
of the store for one day each and
will take the entire profit made on
every sale. Fred will have only
nominal charge of the store during
the week until Saturday.
This plan should be of great help
TO the churches as we'll as a healthy
boost to Hhe growing business of
Mr.. Slater. On Saturday March 9Th
the College Band will share in all
the proceeds in much the same way
as the churches will on the follow
ing week.

HAS BEEN DEDICATED
The Tabernacle Initiatory
Services Held Friday
Night
OVER 1900 PEOPLE PRESENT
At Big Meeting Sunday Night Rev.
Mason Preaching Sermon

The Tabernacle is the biggest
thing in Alma. The people of this
city would not go TO so much labor
and expense so willingly" for any
other cause than that of Christ's. -
said Evangelist Loose after he had
arrived and seen the huge building
which is to house the evangelistic
meetings which were begun last
Monday. The tabernacle was finish
ed on scheduled time and last Fri
day was given a formal dedication
by the pastors of the city and about
five hundred people who p thered in
it.
Rev. Priest of the Baptist Church
presided. Rev. Brownlow delivered
the dedicatory address and Prof. A..
Cook as Mayor of the city deliv-
cred the dedicatory prayer. Prof.
Lillenas led a choir of over seventy
five voices
Despite the fact that ii was previ-
ously announced that Evangelist
Loose would be unable TO be present
at the Sunday night meeting which
inaugurated the campaign over thir-
teen hundred people were present,
the tabernacle being full TO overflow
ing. TThere were over one hundred
and twenty Ave in the choir. Prof.
Lillenas delivered a very striking
sermon on the need of revival SER
vices and outlined generally the
work which he and Mr.. Loose would
attempt in the coming campaign.
Mr.. Loose did not arrive i'm Al
ma until Tuesday morning on ac-
count of the serious illness of his
daughter who is student in Carol
College, Wisconsin, so that Rev.
William Mason of the Presbyterian
Church delivered the sermon on
Monday evening. He took as his
theme The PentecostaI Power. He
pointed out that the elements which
must be present to make this cam
paign a real success would be con-
secration unity, prayer and enthusi-
asm. 1t was a powerful sermon, es-
pecially well delivered and made
strong impression. Rev. Carl pre-
sided at the meeting, Rev. Priest
read the scripture and Captain La
mont of the Salvation Army led in
prayer
Wednesday evening was Builders
Night when all those who contribut-
ed their labor to the building of the
tabernacle were present and sat in a
section reserved for them. Thurs
day evening was High School when
special services were held for the
young people of the city who were
in attendance upon at high school.
The influence of the revival SER
vices is becomingg stronger daily
and much good will come from the
meetings.

The large number of roses and

flowers an ugly eyesore has become
