ATTENDANCE INCREASES AT
THE REVIVAL MEETINGS

The attendance at the revival
meetings conducted at the Methodist
church, by Miss Caffray. is daily in
creasing, due to her charming per-
sonality and to the life giving ser
mons which she breaches. She at
tracts people in another sense. She
is not churchish or abusive in her in
victivc againt sin and it's soulde-
s;troying power. Miss Caffray has
that fine womanly instinct which Is
called sympathy. 1t breaks out In
every fibre of her being. 1t is at
tractive magnetic, irresistible. He
who has heard this powerful evan
gelist is not surprised to learn that
scores of young people signed
life service cards at great meeting
conducted by her in Portland two
years ago. The Pacific Christian
Advocate, in reporting the meetings
held in Portland at that time, said
that the city had not been so might
ousily stirred in a generation by a
religious revival.
1t is reported that Miss Caffray
now has standing invitation to re-
turn to Portland for series Of
meetings in the largest church on
the east side of the city. 1t was In
this very church where Miss Caffray
held that remarkable meeting two
years ago, The request of that
great church for a return engage
ment Is as high a compliment as
can possibly be given to an evan
gelist. for 1t is fact we'll known
that the ordinary evangelist is very
seldom wanted the second time In
a community. When a second en-
gagement is requested it Is sign
of extraordinary fitness and plaza
bility.
It Is the treat Of q lifetime to hear
a woman preach with such power
Effective preaching has been defined
as "the power to persuade" II this
defination is correct and we pre-
sumo 1t Is, then Miss Caffray Is q
preacher of the highest order. ant
she Justly merits the statement thai
she Is one Of the leading evangelist.
Of her sex in America. Her power
is due to her keen intellect, to su
perior training and to fine spiritua
graces. All of these are necessar!
to effective peaching.
1t is too early to predict the out
come of the meetings. 1t will great
ly surprise Miss Caffray's friends
however. II she fails to stir Orofin'
religiously as 1t has never beel
stirred before. Any one who at
tends the meetings will readily oh
serve that Miss Caffray has the sym
pathy Of her audience to the las
person. Many are coming to ever
, service. Tangible results are al
ready in evidence. The next tw
weeks will doubtless show great Pre-
gress.

MAN CAUSED s18 FOREST FIRES

Man was the cause of SIG forest
fires during 1921 in District One
of the U. s. Forest Service. COM
prising Montana, Northern Idaho,
and Eastern Washington, states the
District Forester, Fred Morrell.
Seventy-two persons were posecuted
on evidence collected by forest Of
ficers and sixty-six of these persons
were convicted. The fines collected
from these convictions amounted to
$3,254.00. Through rigid law en-
forcement the Forest Service hopes
to reduce the number of man-caused
fires in the future. Employees OF
the Service are taught to be on the
watch for evidence on which to con-
vict persons guilty OF starting fire
in the forests.

Since her husband had died and had
left her very poorly of the cynical
relations had wondered what had made
her ever marry him in the FIRST place.
And some of them had said that doubt
less she had had her eyes shut when
she took him.
But such was not the case. She
had always been very happy despite
her poverty. They had been generous
even with their little, and the relatives
who were hopeful that the jewels she
possessed would later realize them
something had said that fools and their
money were soon spotted. They were
afraid that others who were more
friendly and more sincere would be
left that which they felt a. blood heirs
should be theirs.
The little old lady Of whom they
talked for q long time had wanted to
get a copy Of the Apocrypha. The va
rious family Bibles which also con-
tanned these books were 90 old as to
be crumbling to pieces.
So she went to the nearest Book
shop Of the town. "Have you the
Apocrypha?" she asked.
The whatr asked the bookseller.
The Apocrypha," she repeated.
Now, the bookseller was proud Of
his reputation Of having every book
which could be asked for within any
degree Of reason. And he kept right

two thousand years. that's ALL" she
added.
She had told me this story with
genuine relish. but afterward she had
been glad she had not been able to
buy the Apocrypha then. She found
she really could not afford 1t; she
could afford nothing to speak of, at
the present time. And Easter was
coming along, too. the time when she
wanted always to make some special
