Evangelist John
Wright Speaks on
Great Topic Today

srv-ho Changed the Sabbath from
Saturday to sunday" Was this
change made by divine authority
sAVho is responsible for this act? Did
y C:lrist and His disciples keep SUNDAY.
The first day of the week? This will
be the interesting subject discussed
Z by Evangelist John Francis Wright
sunday night. July IS, at the large
canvas tabernacle on West Garden
street This lecture Will open the
fourth week of the great campaign
now being carried on by Mr.. Wright
and his able corps Of workers.
In making this announcement, the
Evangelist says. so mans questions
rare being asked with reference to this
isuhiect of the Sabbath and its change
from ,7theeseventh day to the first dag
of the week. he feels that he could not
close his meetings without bringing
before the public what the good old
book has to say about it. So for this
reason he proposes to handle the ques-
ton at this time.
On Friday night large crowd came
out to the tabernacle to hear Mr..
Wright speak upon the subject of
THE Sabbath. the Day Upon Which
jehovah Rested and as. he revealed
from the scriptures in plain vet sim
pie manner how that God made the
Sabbath for man. and that according
TO the fourth commandment of the
decalogue the seventh day ought to he
kept, his bearers were deeply moved.
II was further shown that Christ and
God have never changed their pur-
pose pertaining to the Sabbath com
mand. and that they expect man TO
keep the fourth precept OF the law as

well as the rest of them. Many state
ments were read from the different
creeds and disciplines showing that
the protestant churches do believe
that all of the moral law is just as
binding today as at any time in the
worlds history: however, Sunday the
first day of the week. is now being
observed instead OF the seventh day
according to the commandment. AS
all of this was placed before the peo-
pie present at the tabernacle, there
naturally was created more of a de-
sire to know more about this Sabbath
question and its change, SO that is
why Mr.. Wright is going to speak
upon "The Change of the Sabbath
for the beneit of the public Sunday
night. July 2sth, at o'clock. AS this
is very interesting topic and one
that always draws a large crowd. you
had better plan to go early SO as to
get seat.
The evangelist wishes TO state
clearly that he will handle the theme
for Sunday night from both histori-
cal and Biblical standpoint. and that
he will bring to his hearers only that
which is based entirely upon the facts
which have stood the acid test of all
ages, and not one statement will be
founded upon theory. surely this
promises to be the most important
and the best lecture yet given in tbs
city.
The program for the coming week
is as follows:

Changed the SABBATH"

the party was forced to remain
there all night The trip to Napo-
leonville was made early the next
morning and the return trip all the
way to Morgan City, was started a
few hours later. The travellers ar
rived home at o'clock in the after
noon, hot, dusty, limb-sore and COM
pletely dust-coated, but with enthu-
siasm undiminished.
The following boosters made
up the party: President E. E. Ditch,
Manager w C. Hartman and Secre-
tary NJ. P. Palmer of the Chamber
Of Commerce, Mr.. H. NJ. Gotten,
Mr.. J. D. Ehrlich, Mr. R. A. Delas
and representative Of the Review.
The car in which the trip was made
was public-spiritedly contributed by
Mr.. Enrich, who also drove the en-
tire distance.
In addition to the encouraging
visit with Senator Guion, the spirits
of the party were kept high by the ev-
idence on every hand of prosperity
throughout this section Of the state
The crops Of the section look fine
It seemed as if every available foot
of ground all along the route was
being utilized to raise more food
and thus beat the Kaiser. The large
acreage of potatoes was especially
noted. Every field had its quota
with several oversubscribing.
The famous oat field on Avoca
Island, presented a beautiful sight.
Almost as far as the eye could
reach, wave after wave of oat tops,
could be seen surging in the wind.
The cane crop in every field along
the way, also looked very promising.
Corn and alfalfa is being raised
this year, as never before, so re-
marked "oldtimers" Of the party.
Especially was this true of alfalfa
in the stretch Of country between
Thibodaux and Napoleonville. In
several fields they were cutting it,

the crowd howled for repeater, but
it couldn't be done Several fouls
disappeared over the fence on both
sides but he couldn't straighten
them out sufficiently to make them
count. One of these fouls was cor
rallied after a circus catch by
third baseman Lennon. The feat
was SO seemingly impossible, that it
was fully minute before the
crowd could catch its breath. A
similar performance was staged by
Chaisson in the sixth, foul from
the bat of j. Lowman, giving him
the opportunity. This young man
also took up the pitching job in the
eighth, Daigle going to center field
and Trellue to first.
The Patterson boys scored five
runs in the ninth with the aid of only
two hits. A mixture of one hit, err
rors and hit batters, filled the
bases. Vega trying to catch
Lennon off the bag at third,
