RESTITUTION, MUST
CO WITH REPENTANCE

The theme of Rev. r. p. Lumpkin's
discourse last evening, in what has
been termed his chain of Wesleyan
sermons. was "Repentance-Its Ma
ture and Importance" and proved an
other OF the gripping messages that
have made the St. James Methodist
revival of absorbing interest.
Repentance Ia a prime requisite OF
salvation, declared the preacher, and
ID such a Cody sorrow for sin as to
l,S..I t.-.k 4L-.-lr,f@ Z ~ ~ ~
for disobedience to the Divine will
and an earnest purpose to be an af-
fecuonate and dutiful son of God,
through the saving grace of Jesus
Christ.
He emphasized the office OF restitu-
ton in connection with repentance
that IL 10 the duty of a truly penitent
soul to confess any injury done fell
low man and to repair such harm as
far as possible. II the tongue has
been slanderous, confession should be
made to the injured party, forgive
ness asked and the wrong done cor
rected ~ far as possible.
Repentance should lead to a public
confession Of Christ and manifesto
ton OF sorrow for sin. He was glad
that men are not required to confess
to the preacher. They can go direct
to God and their Saviour. The
Methodist church has always empha-
sized the penitential altar as a means
Of grace.
Towards the close of his sermon
Rev. Lumpkin comes down from the
pulpit into the chancel and In ten
der and winsome manner entreats the
unconverted to come to the Saviour
for pardon peace and power, .ane

A feature of the revival is the
hearty singing of the old spiritual
hymn and songs. such as Come

Blood Alas. and Did Ny Saviour

The preacher has very taking way

MAGAZINE WRITER

Richmond has launched a regular

than year, appears in All Story
Weekly for March 90. Partners in
Trouble is another of those interest
ing stories OF lovers Of the great out
of-doors and the dusty roads. AS all
of Mr. Curtis stories it is an unusual
love story--one with unexpected
turns and different types OF charac-
'ters than those which figure in ninety
per cent OF all of the magazine stories
'of today.
Mr.. Curtis, magazine readers are
observing, is developing the char~c-
terss of happy vagabonds who have re-
Ieeived slight iptroduction in magazine
society heretofore. The type is un
usually well drawn by the Richmond
writer and. not only Is the character
work good, but the men and women
Eare supported by rapid. intensely in
iteresting plots--human and not over
drawn, but concentrated and cleverly
told. Mr.. Curtis phraseology deserves
special. mention. With the develop
ment OF the tramp-type comes the
clever turns of language to fittingiS
describe him and his pals and to keeE
lin harmony with the atmosphere OF
/ the story.

for about three years and in this Tins
