M. R. BURNS
TELLS OF ROME

A good sized audience greeted Hon.
Michael r. Burns of Saco, when he ap-
peared Sunday evening at st. Mary S
hall under the auspices Of the Holy
Name Society and delivered a most
interesting lecture on a visit to Rome.
Mr.. Burns possesses a pleasing per-
sonaiity and had his audience with
him from the start. His word pictures
of the Eternal City were so cleverly
drawn that they brought most wildly
to his hearers the grandeur of Rome,
ancient and modern. Perhaps his
cleverest piece of descriptive work
was a scene depicted in ST. Peters
with the vast multitude in attendance,
the stately procession formed Of many
dignataries of the church from all
over the world preceding their be-
loved Pontif, who was bourne aloft in
Sedan chair AS he passed through
the multitude to the altar he impart-
ed his blessing to them and was re-
ceived with shouts Of acclaim Mr..
Burns while attached to the State au-
ditor's office was a member of ST.
Mary's parish and at the conclusion Of
his address was rendered a reception
by the parishiorers.

what He hath done for my SOUL The
to the needs of the church and he showed
that the church should be a church that
witnesses the knowledge of salvation.
Then it would be power in community
wherever located.
The evangelistic meetings will be held
at the Y. NJ. c. A. auditorium on Tues
days, Fridays. Saturdays and Sundays at
$50 P. NJ, and on Sundays at 2.30 P. M;
also at the Water street Gospel Mission
on Wednesday and Thursday evenings at

Mission.
Evangelist Johnson's work is too well
known in and about the State TO require
any special Introduction. 1t is fitting to
say that he has proven to be a minister
with marked executive ability and special
ly endowed with the rich graoes that are
50 becoming to Christian believers. Mr..
Johnson is one that has power with men
and with God. His chief object is to
strengthen believers. bring back the wan
derer. and gather in the unsaved. The
things that help one to live a-life of puri-
", that cause the life to be sweet, and
to keep in victory, are the things he puts
forth with much emphasis. Everyone
who listens to his messages Immediately
becomes interested, and those who are
not members of any church enjoy the
gospel he so zealously proclaims. He
never delivers any message without Civ
ing his hearers good advice, and also
much valuable information as TO how to
live a satisfactory Christian life. No one
could be more original or clearer in pre-
senting the truths Of the good old Cos
pei 1t is a rare opportunity for all to
receive spiritual help.
Evangelistic I. T. Johnson preached
from the first Psalm Sunday evening.
He spoke of the things upon which
Gods blessing was pronounced. There
are many things upon which the Mas
ter's blessing never reaches. Those
who are lovers of the law and have
respect for it and who help to have
it enforced are the ones upon which
God lets his blessing rest. Christians
are fruit-bearers. Good fruit is al
ways saleable. In Christ's kingdom
there are no sour. green fruit. SUCH
ones are without purpose and aimless.
MIR. Johnson's admonitions to fathers
and mothers to give their boys and
girls proper counsel and keep them
under control was worth while for the
citizens of our city to take heed. In
closing he told what the fruits of the
spirit are. The girls singing class
OF the Gospel Mission gave one selec-
ton. Meeting Monday evening will be
held at the Gospel Mission Hall on
Water street.
