The evening was altogether charming and full of enlightment on the years hence, much to the approval of the twelve young ladies present THE MEETINGS Last evening the main audience room of Central Church would not accomodate the audience and a number were seated in the lecture room. Mr. Handsaker spoke on "Conversion." He emphasized the truth that God in making man gave him the right of choice and that while God brings to bear the strongest motives to induce people to accept salvation. He does not force them into the Kingdom, Conversion is a turning. You should not wait idly for Ood to compel ydu to be Christian, but turn from your sins and obey the Gospel. God has done, is doing. and will do His part. Will you do yours? The services continue all week. Sub ject tonight "The Conversion of the Chief of Sinners." REapRoan Reciprocity works beautifully.
