prayer. AS 1af as known, only one
church will continue their services
during the present week and in other
cases conditions interfere and spe-
cial meetings may be continued
later.
Central M. E. Church.
Large audiences were present all
day and particularly at the morning
service evidences Of the old time re-
vival interest was manifest. DR.. l..
NJ Grigsby preached two strong and
powerful discourses, that of the
morning being on Entire Consecra-
tion" and that of the evening being
on "Sin and Its Cure" AT both ser
vices special musical selections were
rendered by the large chorus choir
and in the evening a most pleasing
vocal duet was rendered by Mrs. ].
Frank Smith and Kenneth Wells OF
University Park. At the morning
service one seeker was present at
the altar and at the short altar SER
vice that followed the revival fervor
of former years indicated that the
power of the spirit was present.
Christian Church.
Rev. C. III. DeVoe preached to his
people two inspiring gospel mes
sages on Sunday. At the morning
service the subject was THE Wit
ness OF the Spirit" and in the even
ing "Tenting Toward Sodom" was
the subject Both were thoroughly
evangelistic and they were heard by
large audiences. The services here
viii not be continued but the work
will be taken up in different man
ner. The work will not be neglected
under Rev. De Woes guidance as the
meetings have been productive of
considerable good.
Friends Church.
Rev. E. Fl. Stranahan at the morn
ing service preached on Perfection"
and in the evening on How to Be
Saved" Both of these services
were well attended and the services
were full OF profitable interest. Dur
ing the pending of the meetings quite
number have indicated the desire
of leading a higher life and the
meetings as a whole have given the
church a larger conception of the
Christian life as a working force in
the working world. Sunday was
the closing day.
Nazarene Church.
Rev. J. A. Ward closed his ser
vices for the time being on Sunday.
During the campaign, the meetings
have been held at the Pentecostal
Mission, but it is understood that the
Baptist church has been secured and
this building will be occupied during
their church building project, until
the completion Some time in Feb
ruary and also in March, the revival
services will be continued, but for
the present they are necessarily
postponed.
First Reformed Church.
Rev. c. D. Loehr and his people
enjoyed the closing day of the cam
paign, with two fine services and all
were we'll attended. During the
campaign, quite good work has
been done among these people and
the future outlook is decidedly hope
full. For the present the services
viii not be continued but the revival
idea will not be lost sight of but
ether methods of reaching the people
will be used.
United Presbyterian Church.
Rev. S. J. Malone and his people
have done faithful, earnest work
during the campaign but their work
has been hindered and somewhat
disarranged by death and sickness,
so that the services as whole have
not reached the results that were
naturally expected. The services
on Sunday were well attended. but
in spite of conditions the church is
courageous and the revival work will
be kept up through the agency of the
regular church work.
North H Street Church.
Rev. j. NJ, Lennon and his people
have done a good work here during
the campaign. In various ways the
church has been built up and
strengthened. On Sunday the SER
vices were largely attended and a
most hopeful outlook is the interest
and activity of the young people, and
