U r I on Meetings Growing In Interest
In spite of the exceptionally tad
weather the interest in the Union meet­
ings has grown throughout the week.
Attendance has not been large but it has
been very satisfactory considering the
weather. Tbe sermons have been es­
pecially good and the music has been
very entertaining The afternoon meet­
ing on Wednesday was attended by over
forty people, and that is exceptionally
satisfactory to the managers of the
meeting.
It is the intention to continue the
meetings throughout January, and it is
expected that the interest will grow
rapidly as the weather becomes more
favorable. Rev. Van Marter and wile
are both here and are proving very able
help in the revival.
The special subject for Sunday even­
ing will be ‘Nuts for Skeptics to Crack.”
It ought to be worth the attention of
everyone in town.
