which included other admonitions, he
walked to the rear of the chancel and
laid his hands on the head of the
woman who sat there with her hus-
band. He prayed softly, so softly
that only murmur could be heard
Then, one by one, the lady ushers

AS they were led up, they knelt along
the communion rail--a row of little
heads. Mr.. Hickson passed from one
to another. He asked each one what
was the trouble, then placed his
hands on the crooked spine, the club
foot, across the eyes, or wherever
deformity was, and prayed.
What he prayed could scarcely be
heard, even by those seated very
close, but it was a prayer, evidently
for Christ to bring His healing to
the afflicted one.
Mr.. Hickson spent about two min
utes beside each person. He stood
beside theal, going from one end

returning as new ones took their

Results Widely Discussed
The results of the mission Satur-
day are being widely discussed in
Atlanta. and of course the chief
question asked is. Were there
cures?"
Out of the $50 persons who were
treated, those who consented to give
their names and statements to news
paper men in the majority of in
stances said that they felt better
spiritually, some of them that they
felt better physically. While none
declared that he was cured" prac-
tically ell expressed the conviction
that, with faith and prayer, their in
firmities would either be lessened or
removed, or that they would be able
to bear them cheerfully. AS one
woman expressed it, 81 don't seem to
mind so much now"
This, said Mr.. Hicllson, is not men
tai healing. He admitted that God
works, too, through the power Of
mind over matter. but he said that
the holy spirit, united with Christ,
rules over both mind and matter.
He said, TOO, that it is far more than
Suggestion; it is the living pres
ence of Jesus Christ.
"Once We realize the living pres
cnce, all our questions are answer
ed" he said. THE Lord who gave
you faith to come here is here in per-
son. If I did not believe that, /
