Though a great campaign, including the expensive Tnhcninclo building, wns financed, tho jKoplo readily gave the evangelist .fJOOO for his services. Almost another week wns udded, without cost, becutiK? tbo in terest of tbo work demanded the ex trn effort.

Thono buildings were generally crowded, hundreds were added to thoir membership, and the greatest day in their history wit nessed. Every church in tho city has received members, and churches in tho surrounding towns nnd coun try districts report additions. The ingnthoring, however, is not ended. Dr. Oliver's work elsewhere- hns en dured, nnd it will endure in Eugene. Ho preaches civic righteousness, business honosty, honor for law. purity of tho home, cleanliness of life, temperance reform. Ho lias not striven for numbers. Ho is n Pur itan in his teaching ns compared i with the emotional evangelist.
