steadily increasing since the war, and
now the call promises to increase. So
the coal mines in this state are re-
ported working in full, with more
orders ON the books of operators than

demand from the coast is emphasized
by the decreasing production of oil,
while there is call from Chicago,

Salt Lake City retailers claim that
competitive bidding for coal is cont

demand. For instance, lump il selling

certain buyers ON the coast arc anXi-

Arranged-LOren Jones
to Conduct Music

DR. Preston B. Wells, pastor of the
Highlands Methodist church, announces
a great revival at that church which will
begin on Sunday, February J, lasting
through the third Sunday of the month.
Bob Jones, the famous evangelist, will
conduct the meeting, and with him there
will be Loren Jones. the widely known
singer. and Mrs Loren Jones, pianist.
An immense platform will be erected in
front of the choir loft which will seat
100 singers, and the music will be one
of the especial features of the revival, as
Loren Jones is regarded as one of the
greatest evangelical singers in America,
being in the same class with Rodheaver,
Billy Sundays widely known vocalist.
Dr. Wells declares that in his opinion
there is no greater evangelist today
than Bob Jones, a man of great piety,
sanctity and ability, full of magnetism
and with the true spirit of Christianity
I'm his heart; wherever he goes his infiu-
ence is felt and tire results from his re-
vival meetings can scarcely be, esti-
mated.
Preliminary preparations for the re-
vival at Highlands Methodist church are

great evangelist breaches his first re-

no doubt be received by a tremendous
