THE GREAT REVIVAL CLOSES

The revival which has been in pro- gress at the First Presbyterian church of this city for the past 15 days, conducted by Evangelist J. P. Kidd and Singer F. F. Fitch, both of Little Rock, came to an end last night. There was an immense con- gregation present filling auditorium and Sunday school rooms to hear the last sermon by MT. Kidd on "Memory Tn Hell, and there was very close attention to the solemn and biblical discourse. There have been 30 addi- tons to the Presbyterian church and several will join the other churches Of the city, Twenty-nine were re- ceived on profession of faith, and 16 were baptized, IA having been bap- tlzed in infancy. Of the total number lS were men and boys and included all ages-boys and girls from the sunday school, young men and wo- men in the prime of life and those of mature and business life. Owing to the many calls for evangelistic ser wees, Messrs. Kidd and Fitch will nave to hold separate meeting during the summer, Mr. Kidd going to Wal nut Ridge and Mr. Fitch to Earle. There are four other evangelists also sent out by the Presbyterian synod, and all will be very busy for many months to come. The following is a llSt ot those uniting with the Presby- 'enan church:
 Daniel Argaud, Bildred Bemis, AL vS Bomar, William Buchanan, Vern puehanan, Elizabeth Cummings, Lloyd Cummings, Forest Darlington, s' D. Dalrymple, Thomas Dalrymple, william Dalrymple, w. F.

Paint Dark Picture
Wilson Nominations

Washington, JAN 21-Dipping their
brushes into the probability that the
Republican majority in the Senate
would refuse to confirm most of the
twenty thousands nominations made
by President Wilson, some admins
tration officials painted today a pic
ture of creaking government mach
inc, houndering along for a time after
March with lot of important cogs
missing.
Failure of the Republican senators
at a secret conference today to reach
any decision as to the nominations
set the canvas, but Republican lead
ers were notainciined to take the pic
ture seriously.
The question Of the nominations
occupied much of the time of the Re-
publican conference. The official an
nouQcement said no decision was
reached. but some of those attending
the meeting said. privately that there
had been "tacit" agreement for the
Republican members of committees
to take the nominations coming un-
der their jurisdiction. study cordi-
tons in the executive departments
and then determine whether failure
to keep the Democratic appointees in
office after March 4 would result in
any embarrassment of those depart-
mentS.
A young regiment of officials now
in Washington is holding office by
virtue of recess appointments. Should
the Senate fail to act on their NOM
nations before this congress quits
on March 3, it is explained that they
will automatically be out of jobs un-
der the law. These officials include
all seven members of the shipping
board, two members of the Interstate
Commerce Commission. three chief
officials in the patent office, and five
assistants secretaries of the treasury.
Then. too, there are a lot of post
masters, judges, marshals, attorneys,
registers of land offices and the like
over the country who are in the same
position. Some of these are classed
as emergency cases and the Repub-
lican leaders have indicated that
where there is found to be an emer-
gency action will be taken.
Confirmation of President Wilson's
appointments by the Senate would
carry some of these officials over into
the Republican administration for
terms ranging from one to- two years
in excess of the four for which Mr.
Harding has been elected Senator
Lodge has announced that he does
not propose to have the Democratic
administration fill up a lot of bureau
chiefshipS in the army and navy for
the incoming administration and in
this he has the support of his Repub-
lican colleagues.
