REVIVAL is OVER
EVANGELIST BRYAN CALLED TO
HELP STATE BOARD HEAD
Two Weeks Protracted Meeting
Closes At Baptist Church-SPlen-
did Sermons Were Heard

Revival services at the Stanford
Baptist church which have been in
progress for little over two weeks,
were brought to a close Thursday
night when Rev. o. E. Bryan, state
Baptist evangelist, who has been do
ing the preaching, was called to LOU
isville to take up his new work as as
sistant to DR.. W. E. Powell, secretary
of the Baptist State Board of Mis-
sions. Rev. Bryan was elected to his
new duties at meeting of the board
at Louisville Tuesday. DR.. M. d.
Early, pastor of the local church, is
a member of the board, and attended
the meeting at which Rev. Bryan was
given his new duties. DR.. Powell is in
very poor health and is compelled to
undergo a serious operation at once.
Great interest was manifested in
the services from the beginning to
end, and much regret was felt that
Rev. Bryan was called away before
the meeting was concluded. He is a
man of unusual power in presenta-
ton of the Word, and every sermon
was delivered in his own peculiar
and forceful way. He made many see
the old gospel truths in a new light,
and at the same time made many
warm friends and admirers here,
whose best wishes will ever be with
him in his great work.
At the close of the services
Thursday night, Pastor Early said
that he could wish that in some unit
ed way all the churches of Stanford
could unite to carry on this revival,
in some large tent or assembly hall I;
that he was anxious to see the work
90 on in Stanford. At the meeting
of the Baptist board, the selection of
an assistant to DR.. Powell was made
necessary by the adoption of the bud
get plan to distribute the financial
contributions to the board.
The Rev. w. L. Brock, of Lexing-
ton, was reelected as Sunday School
secretary and Paul Powell, son of
DIR. Powell, who was B. Y. P. U.
secretary, of Louisville, was made his
assistant. The Rev. n. T. Barnes, of
Louisville, was reelected secretary of
the Kentucky B. Y. P. U. and A. E.
Wohlbold made office secretary and
assistant treasurer.
Additional appropriations were
voted Baptist Woman's Missionary
Union to enable them to enlarge their
sphere Of usefulness. The union new
has over LOO organizations in the
state.
Aside from the budget the board
has also taken on itself, as part cf
coming years program, the study of
plans and the raising of between
100000 and 100000 for the en-
dowment and equipment of the de-
nominational schools and colleges
throughout the state.

Looks Like a County Judge.
(From Lancaster Fecord)

Il cCOTuD
Hon. Thomas A. Rice was mingling
with his friends on county court day
in Lancaster who came over from
Lincoln county. Mr.. Rice is an an
nounced candidate for the Demo-
cratic nomination for county judge
of his county, subject to the next
August primary. Judge Rice tells us
that he is in the fight to win and to
a fellow on the outside it looks good
for him at this time. His friends
say that he is far in the lead and
will probably land the winner next
August. We are not advised, how
ever, as to his chances, but we DO
know that our Democratic neighbors
in Lincoln cannot find a better. dem-
ocrat to lead their ticket next wear.
Tom Rice is not only true blue dem
ocrat but is a gentleman of ability
with a wide business experience and
is in every way equipped to look az
ter the fiscal affairs of his county.
Here's hoping that he may win the
goal of his ambition. 9G-1

SECOND CANDIDATE TO RUN
FOR COUNTY JUDGE
Writes a Strong Card to the Demo-
Gratis, Setting Forth Platform He

With the reorganization of the
Democratic County Committee out
the way, interest in county politics is
growing daily, and many candidates
are being groomed by their friends.
The second candidate to announce
for the Democratic nomination for
the County Judgeship is out today.
He is Tom A. Rice, a prominent
Stanford farmer, who made a very
creditable race four years ago, and
has jumped into the running this
time with ''both feet" and is getting
ready to "go some" He issues
strong card to the democrats of the
county setting forth his claims, as.
follows:

FOR GRATITUDE
Thankfulness for the Vaster
Blessings of Life Should
Be the Duty of All.

To give thanks for the more
particular benefits, valuable in a
small way in our own lives, would
seem to me dispensable, and OF
proportionately little value; but to
show gratitude and appreciation
for the vaster blessings with which
the life of each one of us is en-
riched, this, it would seem to me,
is indispensable.
We are usually down on onr
knees, thankful IL some project of
our own succeeds, If something we
desire for ourselves or for our
friends comes to pass; bnt high
