STAGES
TRIPLE-HEADER
AT TENT SERVICE
CONDUCTS SERVICE LAST
EVENING FOR ADULTS AND
CHILDREN: TALKS ABOUT
PATRIOTIC TENT

Raymond T. Richey, tireless
Houston evangelist, staged
triple-header at his big tent,
Duval and Division streets. last
night. by conducting a children's
service, in which he passed out
candy treat; by preaching to a
congregation of adults, pleading
for personal righteousness, and,
finally, by trying to sell his hear
crS, young and old, on his dream
of mammoth d-Write- and blue
tent operated as a gospel taber-
nacle near Army and Navy train
ing camps this summer and fall.
Only Mr.. Richey didn't call it a
dream He said it was a VISION"
and a very practical one,
Evangelist Richey let it be
known the contract for the big
canvas already has been let to
the Smith Manufacturing COM
pany, of Dalton, Ga, and that the
first payment went forward in
the last few days. He also said
the money to pay for the tent
about $3,000-is being raised by
free-Will offerings. He made an
earnest appeal to the people to
get behind this worthy enter
prise of soul-Winning.' He took
up an offering as a part of Key
Vests quota.
Mr.. Richey stated the patriotic
theme would rule throughout the
entire set-up, when his defense
revivals" get under way. in the
hope of attracting soldiers, sailors
and marines, and their command
ing officers. Appealing for CO.
operation, Evangelist Richey
spoke earnestly from Prov. 14:34:
Righteousness exalteth a nation,
but sin is reproach to any peo-
Pile" He referred to President
Rooseveit's call for National day
of PRAYER last fall, and said il was
a proper and commendables thing
to5do. But" he said, "a NAti0n
called to a day of prayer and q
Nation actually praying, are two
different and distinct things. A
Nation really at prayer is a peo-
pie repentant, humble. This
means something more than proc
lamation, or thanksgiving, or even
going to church. 1t means peo-
pie sincerely desiring to honor
God in their lives,
Evangelist Richey urged the
children, who occupied a re-
served section Of seats, to re
member your Creator in the days
of YOUR youth, that God may be
able to bless YOU with long life
and prosperity" To parents. he
said: Make holiness beautiful
before your children. Lure them
away from the glittering lights of
the world by making the church
attractive to them. "
Mr.. Richey will give his life
story tonight, and pray for the
sick MRS. Richey will discuss,
What is Faith?"
