On Sunday, January 3rd, Union
Evangelistic Meetings will begin in
the Methodist Church. The three
churches of the town are uniting.
Robert E. Gibby, of CaZenOvia, N.
Y, will preach Sunday morning and
evening. Mr.. Gibby is very sue
cessful evangelist, and a wonderful
singer. He breaches, sings, leads
the Union Choir, and plays the in
visible trombone. The choir will be
made up of folks of Milton. We
might say the meetings are to be
Milton meetings. The churches and
all the people of Milton uniting.
Milton needs a real REVIVAL re-
vival that puts the spirit of work
and go in folks. We are not so
deeply concerned about more noise,
in religion, for we all make too
much fuss now for the amount OF
religion we have. We want the noise
of work, giving, helping.
Mr.. Gibby follows a sane and we'll
balanced method. 1t is a christian
method. He endeavOrs to make
clear the way of life, and gives the
people a chance to accept it. We
feel that Milton is to be congratu-
lated on being able to get such
leader. And if the people will just
be loyal to God, and work with Mr..
Gibby. Milton will have just the
kind of meetings God wants us to
have. Do not allow the weather to
keep you home. And go to church
to meet your God, and hear His
word, and save your Soul.
The meetings will begin Sunday,
and continue for three weeks. They
will be held each night except Sat
urday night. We shall try to have
the church comfortable and make it
pleasant for you. There will be
good lot of ushers to look after your
comforts. Lots of good singing
books and lots of good singers, are
sure to give lots of good singing.
We shall have it. Meetings will be-
gin at 1880 each night, and be
prompt.
We do not want one to stay away.
You are sure to miss a treat if you
do. We shall look for you.
