UNION MEETING
CLOSES SUNDAY

|
progress, is proving to be one Of tn
most successful campaigns of it
kind ever held in this section OF tn
state, and will go down in history a
one of the great epochs in the relie
ious annals of Cookeville, where sue
c.ssful me 'tings have been held TO
the past sixty years.
Lare and interested congregation
have been in attendance at each serv
ice held, and the splendid sermon!
delivered by DR.. Price have had tell
ing effect on people of all ages ana
classes. Avoiding sensationalism
and appealing to the reasoning facul
ties of his hearers, the evangelis
has won the confidence of our people
and is doing a wonderful work in oul
midst. He breaches plain, common
sense doctrines and warns his hear
ers against emotionalism in their de
cisions.
More than a hundred people have
accepted Christ under the guidance
of DR.. Price and his assistants, while
hundreds more have reconsecrated
their lives to the Master and are
now working with renewed zeal fol
his cause. The meeting will close on
Sunday night.
On Monday morning committee
was appointed to call on the business
and professional men Of the town,
asking them to close th.i ir places OF
business from ten to eleven a. m,
and give their employees an oppor.
tunity to attend the morning service
at the tent. Practically everyone ap.
preached agreed to do this, and by
this most commendable action on
the part of the business people of
the town, the day congregations have
been very materially augmented.
We give below the petition circulat-
ed and the names OF the people who
signed same:
We, the undersigned business and
professional men, take this means Of
announcing to the public, that, on
account of the Union Revival Cam
paign at the tent, they will find our
places of business closed from 10 to
II o'clock, Tuesday, Wednesday,
Thursday and Friday mornings of this
week. Thus to make it possible for
ourselves and our employees to at.
tend the morning services at the
tent.
This announcement, with all the
names assigned thereto, to be read
from the platform, and published in
the town paper. (There will be re-
peated announcement from the plat
form requesting the ladies' to get
all orders for goods to be delivered

so as to avoid congestion Of work at
