Is true of this series of meetings. had
there been no recruits to the ranks OF
the church as the result of the efforts
of two praying Christian men and their
congregation, the revival might still be
said to he success. The moral wave
that was put In motion and the reli-

the souls of many are to be desired.
But the church gained more than that.
as those five who have acknowledged
their new-found faith stand forth to
