OLD FASHIONED REVIVAL
REV. BERT cULPEPPER TO START
REVIVAL AT METHODIST
CHURCH.,

Bert Culpepper, the famous evange-
list, will begin a revival meeting in
Wesley Memorial church September
18th. Mr.. Culpeper was scheduled to
hold a revival in this church last fall
but the meeting had to be postponed
on account of the influenza epidemic.
The revivalist held a very great
and successful revival in Greensboro
last spring. The pastor of the Cen
tenary Methodist church of that city,
Rev. A. w. P1yler, in a letter to
High Point minister, gives his opin-
ion Of Bert Cu1pepper.
The letter follows:
Bert Culpepper is every inch
gentleman-a Christian gentleman Of
the finest type. He is a preacher @
wonderful power. His preaching is
not sensa tional in the ordinary, every
day use of the word, that is, in the
employment of claptrap methods and
in the use of extravagant and foolish
speech in order to catch the crowd
with itching ears. But Bert Culpepper
possesses an individuality, and the
power to present the old gospel truths
Ill q WdS CudC I'll WO Iu0 Luu1L1LuU0S W
hear his messages and his hearers are
proited thereby.
''I know of no man who without ex-
travagant advertising and machine
methods of campaigning in a commu-
nifty, neither of which Mr.. Culpepper
cares to adopt, can for weeks gather
the thousands about him as this man
does to hear the great gospel messages
that he delivers with such fine effect.
"He did great work in Green's
boro last spring and the best Of it all
is that his work abides. Many came
into Centenary church andthey are
making good loyal members Of the
church.
Greensboro believes in Bert Cul-
peper and his work and the Green's
boro people will be in High Point by
the hundreds to greet him and to hear
him preach again. We hope to have
'-'-1 in Greensboro for one service at
least during his stay in High Point"
