A large increase in the attendance at
the Thursday evening prayer meeting
services at Mount Vernon Place Church
has been noted recently, the improve
ment being ascribed largely to the fact
that the number present is announced
and recorded. The board of stewards,
numbering twenty-six men, has been
unusually faithful in attendance upon
these meetings. At the end of each
month card is sent to stewards,
showing how many times each has at
tended the services during the month.
The record is gratifying to the pastor
anu the cfldifHldn OF tne BOARD, Mr.. j.
Everett Baird.

will be in charge of DIR. Z. II. Rawlings
