Mystery Night" in the Evangelist
campaign, was we'll attended and the
finest spirit prevailed. Rev. Will
liam G.. Cooper. the London Evangcl-

the converts on the step they had
taken and urged them to be loyal 10
their convictions and to Grow i'll
grace"
The church is the nursing mother
of now born souls and the sphere OF
spiritual activity" he asserted.
Therefore every Christian ought to
be openly identified with some branch
of Gods church that is in sympathy
with the SOULS convictions. The Soul
must feed daily on Bible study or fell
lowship with God. In order to make
the Bible real to you and the char
acters living persons in your thought,
| urge every Christian to buy A GOOD
Bible-well bound and on good paper
--one that will last with hard usage
for many years. Then study it con-
stantly and work it. Learn to live
happy Christian life; don't preach
sermons; but let your life be a good
sermon every day"
The feature of the service was thc
, opportunity for full and free test
mony to blessings received during The
campaign by everyone present. This
was interspersed with bright. cheer
full singing and the spirit of fellow
ship and JOY prevailed.
