METHODIST REVIVAL
TO END SUNDAY NIGHT

! The last week night service OF the
meetings being held at the First Meth
odist Episcopal church, was one of
the best of the series. There we're
some new decisions for Christ and
several consecrated their lives to
Christian services. Mrs. H. d. Mar
tin and Mrs. H. II. Orland sang two
duets. Miss Bernice Corneilson, a
pledged missionary, gave the minute
mans address. She told how that she
gave her life to Christ as a child and
how when away teaching school she
sought the power to win others to
Christ and found what she needed
through source which she least eX-
pected it.
The pastor preached on the terrible
consequences of sin and the power of
Christ to deliver from sin. How that
through the atonement of Christ the
whole world might have the victory
over sin.
1t is expected that on Easter Sun
day the services will be unusually
helpful. DR.. l. R. Boyd has arranged
that the choir shall sing two beauti-
full anthems. DR.. Perry will preach
an Easter sermon and there will be a
baptismal service and reception of
members Members will be received
both on confession of faith and by

evangelistic service of the series. The
full chorus choir will be on the plat
form; also the full vested Junior
choir. The Junior choir will have a
special Easter anthem. Some OF the
greatest of the old hymns will be used.
The pastor will preach. Subject: AL

CAN A FUNNY PICTURE
ALSO HAVE A THRILL

Can picture be funny and thrill
ing at the same time? Nine people
out of every ten will reply mo" and
in the majority of cases they are
right for it is the most difficult task
in the making of motion pictures to
inject thrill in a purely comedy
story particularly is this true when
that comedy is a broad travesty on
some serious subject.
But in Married Life" the new
Mack Sennett five-reel super-comedy
distributed through the Associated
First National Pictures, Inc, due at
the Liberty Theatre for two days be-
ginning Monday, March %, this
master of mirth making has attained
the almost impossible. In this pure
ly farcical offering he has injected
one thrill after another and to make
this feat doubly marvellous, the thrills
and comedy are so closely intertwined
that the shivers up the spine are i'm
mediately dispelled by the laugh that
follows.
Ben Turpin, he of the contrary eyes
leads the Sennett fun makers in the
intermingling of laughs and thrills.
AS Rodney St. Clair, the dashing
hero, he first turns the trick in one
of the most realistic bootball scrim-
images the screen has produced in a
long time. This performance he re-
peats later on in the hospital, where
he is inflated with gas and floats
out of the window and still later when
he and Jimmy Finlayson battle on the
wings of an aeroplane many thous-
and feet above the surface of the
earth. Then to cap the climax he
gives the auditor the supreme laugh
thrill of the evening at the very tail
end of the story.
