first Of the afternoon sermons while
IS came forward the second time.
Between sermons the tabernacle
was emptied completely of members
of the chorus, ministers and every one
connected with the campaign except
the .ushers, the members of the party
and the newspaper reporters.
When everyone had gone out the
south doors of the tabernacle, the
ropes for the reserved sections were
put up and the north doors of the
tabernacle opened, and those that had
been outside for the first sermon per
mitted to enter.
Rev. r. w. Leazer offered the open
ing prayer at the first meeting, while
Charles Woodman offered the closing
prayer. At the second sermon, Julian
Smith, of the Y. M. c. A. offered the
opening prayer.
Rev. F. A. Dressed, explained the
collection at the afternoon session
while Sylvester Jones repeated fol
the second sermon.
The musical part of the first pro
gram consisted Of a solo by Mrs
Asher, and some long distance singins
of Brighten the Corner Where Yo,
Are"
Two different methods Of singinl
were followed, so that most Of tn,
parts of the audience sang some o
the chorus. Miss Jane Mayer, o
Charleston, West Va, who made suc]
hit with her singing of the choru
when the Charleston delegation wa
here, sang the chorus for the audi
ence, and was heartily applauded.
The money taken up by the mel

Immediately after his first sermon
Mr.. Sunday was driven to his hotel
where he rested, until the preliminar

Bottle-fed Church
Causes Bocksliders

One Of the most prolific sources
OF haeI<slldinp 10 bottIe-fed
church. Many a preacher reminds
me Of 4 great big nursing bottle
with five hundred or a thousand
rubber tubes running out into the
audience and with five hundred or
4 thousand great, big $50 pound
babies in Christ with nipples in
their mouth, sitting there nursing
and sucking from the preacher,
and 50 a preacher has to be a wet
nurse TO the whole crowd.
BY and by some old sister gets
the amusement nipple in her
mouth and II sours her old ston-
aeh. Up goes her old heels and
she let's out yell, "Yal va! Val!
Val"
And the preacher says, "sister,
what 10 the matter with your"
"Yes, Brother Sunday said some
thing didn't like"
swell, there, there, now, don't
you feel bad, Brother Sunday did
not mean YOU"
You bet your life Brother Sunday
did mean you; you're giving her
a bum steer. So, true eloquenee
means that heart speaks to heart
or mind to mind through the heart.
II is hard for man to be eloquent
to corn9taIks or sapiinos or wood
and @~ish, so join the church.
Look TO yourselves that ye receive
full reward"
