Meetings Attract
Earnest Audiences

The meetings at the First Baptist
church are attracting earnest, though
full audiences The message of DR.. G.
F. Holt last evening on "Chnst our
All and in All" was listened to with
close attention. He dwelt on the three
fold aspect of Christ as Savious, Re
deemer, Deliverer. The sermon was
followed by solo effectively rem
dered by Mrs. Burton, "Christ is All. "
The song service is an attractive fea-
ture Of the meetings. Mrs. Burton is
proving herself most skillful and
pleasing leader. Under her leadership
the large chorus choir of young people
is delghting the audience with their
renditions. The new song books that
have been expected arrived today and
will be used this evening. This will
undoubtedly add much to the interest
of the meetings.
DR.. Holt's theme this evening will
be "The New Birth-or Made Over by
the spirit.

VIII Dry Prunes by
New Process in Thirty
Minutes Says MIR. HemlOw

A theory that will revolutionize the
prune industry in the whole country, II
proved sound. is advanced by W. o.
Hemlow, Of 4s2 Albina avenue. Port
land, Oregon who has been telling local
prune growers of his process during
the past two weeks.
A steel tank with an enclosed track
to run the trays in is the apparatus.
The tank is alright and after the
prunes are placed on the trays and in
the tank, vacuum pump is set to
work which takes the air out to a GER
tain point; this lowers the boiling
point to. 72 degrees and it takes PIP
degrees in the ordinary drying process
es.
"All there is to drying prunes, is to
remove the moisture from the fruit and
this can be done in 80 minutes by my
method,D said Mr.. Hemlow. No lye is
needed to break the skins and the
prunes are claimed TO weigh about 20
per cent more when dried.
Local growers and prune men are in
terested in the theory but want to see
some test made. If Mr.. Hemlow sue
ceeds in convincing them that the ma
ehinery will do as Mr.. Hemlow says,
there will be wholesale ordering of ap-
paratus for plants of this description,
say men who have talked with the in
ventor.
Dallas prune enthusiasts who have
been approached on this subject say
that Mr.. Hemlow is undoubtedly a
scientific chemist of ability but they
can not seem to get him to talk bust
ness. When asked where he comes off
financially after telling them how to
work a plant like he describes, he said
that he gets a royalty on the vacuum
pans and machinery sold
Mr.. Hemlow claims that he is about
to receive $4,000 from the million dol
lar raisin trust of California for dry
ing raisins so that they will not sugar
inside of 10 months. He says nearly l l
months have elapsed now and he just
received word that his dried raisins
have not sugared as yet.
Henry Campbell, II. A. Woods and
Lee Crider have been especially inter
ested in the new theory and hope to
get a practical demonstration of the
process in the near future.-Dallas OBJ
