Especial Correspondent

From the moment the high school
students serpentined into the big tab
ernacle Friday night, to the closing
evening prayer, there was something
doing every minute. Led by their yell
master, they tore off some of their
famous yells such as, 'Let her Rip"
xxi vi" "Hi Ski" "Nigger Nigger," )"
"Coca-che-lunk," etc., finally winding
up with specially made ones for DR..
Bulgin and Bob and Ethel. A song by
the high school was also we'll render
ed. Next, little playlet was intro
duced, five students impersonating st.
Peter, the angel Gabriel, the recording
angel, the devil, and the good angel.
The Kennewick faculty was on trial
before st. Peters tribunal and only
one Of the faculty, Superintendent
Smith, was able 70 pass his final EN-
trance examination.
DR.. Bulgin followed with a power
full appeal to the young folks to rule
out everything that cracks the metal
of life and causes it to ring untrue.
Many responded to the appeal and
went forward and shook DR.. Bulgin's 8
hand. G
Saturday night, as previously an
nounced, was negro night. Negro
melodies were sung and the collection
taken in the good old negro style.
Everybody marched up to the front
and deposited their offering on the
table and a goodly sum it was.
Sunday, the Tabernacle Band from
Sunnyside, assisted by two of our
home boys, led the big parade which
started from the tabernacle at 2:15.
It was as long as one of DR.. Bulgin's
sermons and. in way, just as pow
erful. The Evangelistic Party in
cluding DR.. Bulgin and Mr.. and Mrs.
Lewis, and the ministers Of the city
and surrounding churches. made up
the first platoon; hext came the boys
and girls brigade, then the women's
division followed by a battalion OF
men. A long stream Of automobiles
wound up the procession.
Immediately following the parade,
simultaneous meetings were held in
the tabernacle, the Methodist church
and the Congregational church with
record-breaking crowds at all the SER
vices. Sunday night DR.. Bulgin de-
ivered wonderful sermon on the
"Cities of Refuge"
Monday night, under the leader
ship of Mr.. and Mrs. Lewis, the Sun
sinners entertained the big crowd
present with songs, drills, ,yells and
stunts and Mr.. Lewis magical sermon
demonstration on how to get rid Of sin
was not only very clever piece OF
magic, but also a most convincing help
to anyone earnestly and honestly seek
ing to get their life in tune with the
Almighty. The wonderful work Mr.
and Mrs. Lewis have accomplished
with the children in so short time, is
amazing. The Sunshineers will close
the week with feed at the tabernacle
Tuesday night Mrs. Lewis gave 9
beautiful Interpretation of the song
"The Holy City" at the conclusion o.
which DR.. Bulgin delivered his fam
Gus Chautauqua lecture, "1s Moses
Scientific M. j. Carrigan, who j:
so enthusiastically supporting tht
bridge proposition, came all the wa1
from Walla Walla to hear this lecture
. and at its close remarked: "If there
is any man present who still disbe
lieves in God, there must be something
the matter with his head"
Wednesday night the sermon wa
more particularly for ladies, the sub

the Commercial Club, in which appre
citation was expressed for the use O.
