nacle yesterday evening and as the
horde Of students began to wend
its way from Davenport it looked
like an invading army. The future
chjrOpractic doctors extended in
double formation from one end OF
the government bridge to the other
and they numbered not less than
2,0Ge. They were headed by their
band of 10 pieces directed by Bob
Kerns and George Trimby acted as
marshal of the night. Special seats
we're reserved for the crowd in the
tabernacle and everywhere could
be seen white badges on which
We're 2. S. c.
After the crowd had gotten into
the tabernacle, the band took
places on the platform and played
several selections. George Trimby
acted as yell leader and song di-
rector and called for selections By
the Z. S. C.s, and they gave with
vim Homeland" Here's to the
p. S. c." so Pack Up Your
Troubles" with emphasis on the
Sol and Brighten the Corner"
They could make lots of noise and
pretty good music, but we dare not
say it could equal that of the taber-
nacle choir.
But they had lot of pep and
enthusiasm and gave their yells
with the answer absolutely" with
a shout that threatened to raise the
rafters.
Witticisms few back and forth
about adjustments and ROdey got
off a lot of puns and stories about
oh he ND oil
the other paths leading 10 the grave
anyway. so it didn't make much
difference which one you selected.
Mr. Sunday, when he took the
platform, said he never remem-
bered seeing so large a delegation
from any one school since he had
conducted his evangelistic cam
paigns, so he would have to give
them the banner on attendance.
Again the tabernacle was filed to
its capacity and more. People
were again standing around the
side walls and the windows and |
doors were full. Interest grows !
apace with the meetings and the
attendance is larger :haE the build .
ing can accommodate.
IS Converts.
At the close OF the services last /
evening rs people made public
their confession OF faith. coming
forward at the urgent invitation of .
MIR. Sunday, to shake his hanu and .
pledged themselves to hotter lives. I
Included amou.- the converts were +
many young men and It is sigh. .
not t. be forgotten to see them
eome forward with a new light in /
their faces Cnashamed that the
world shall know on which side
they stand in the cause Of Christ.
1t takes more than a little man to
have the courage OF his convictions
to publicly take Etalu for right
eousuess ard 10 acknowledge the
risen Christ.
The opening prayer last evening
was given by Rev. ". II. F. Jones
of me EGgewood Baptist church.
RoGeheaver sang solo number,

chc!r was there with its splendid |
music.
Mr.. Sunday took as he theme for

Mr.. Sunday then plead that the !,
