THE SUXDAY OREGOXIAN, PORTLAND, JANUARY 10, 1915. 14 GREATER SCOPE IN IRVINGTON SCHOOL CHILDREN GIVE PLAYLET TO SWELL PICTXTEE FUND. REVIVALS SOUGHT Invitation Extended to West Side Congregations to Co . operate in Meetings. MORE SINGERS DESIRED Ir. Bnlgln Will Address East Side Business Men's Club Tomorrow and Mrmbrri Are to Attend Tabernacle One Night. AH the Evangelical churches of Port land have been Invited to Join In the union meetings being held In the Tab ernacle at East Eleventh and East Morrison streets, in charge of E. - J. Bulgin. for the remainder of the month. At an enthusiastic meeting of the chairmen of the committees and many of the members, held at the Portland Young Men's Christian Association Thursday, where luncheon was served, It was the unanimous opinion that this Invitation be extended to all Portland churches to co-operate in the Bulgin meetings antl lend their Influence in making them a success. Today these invitations will be read to the con gregationa by the pastors. The churches coming In under this Invitation do not assume any financial obligations, but they are asked to further the interest In the union services by the East Side churches, which are carrying the bur den of the meetings. There will be two meetings today In the Tabernacle, at 2:30 and 7:30. At the afternoon'meetlng Dr. Bulgin will deliver his sermon on "The Feast of -Helshazzar The Phantom of the Hid 4n Hand. This is said to be one of (he evangelist's greatest sermons. To night the toplo will be "Why I Believe the Bible." Choir la Augmented. The congregations of 11 East Side churches and those of the West Side will unite In the afternoon meeting and tonight The choir has been great ly enlarged during the week. George L. Kose. the musical director, and Mrs. Kose will sing at both the afternoon and evening meetings. Dr. Bulgin. who is conducting the union meetings, has been an evangel 1st for 21 years, lie had been a law yer and agnostic lecturer in North Carolina before his conversion. He Is of the typical North Carolina moun taineer product, educated, but educat ed bv his own efforts with but a few short months of schooling. For some years he was assistant pastor of the First Presbyterian Church of Chicago, and while there assisted in the Moody meetings. His addresses the past week have greatly Impressed the pastors of the 11 churches who are back of the meetings. So far there has been noth ing along the sensation style, although Ir. Bulgin can paint with words a strong picture. He believes in reason ing out the propositions he presents. Reeemblaarw ta Llsrols Noted. There la a marked resemblance be- wf nr Rtila-in and Abraham Lin coin, especially when be laughs, and k - muiM nana for the emancipator if he wore whiskers. On the evangelist's face is a smile that does not come un. and a ripple of hearty good will and humor radiates his addresses and com municates to the audiences. Dr. Bulgin does not come to the congregation with a set sermon, and often changes the subject after he has faced and n h. audience, like the physi cian who writes his prescription after he has diagnosed the case. In Professor Kose. the musical di rector, he has an able associate and assistant. Professor Rose ranks with the great musical directors of the rnlted States and. according to musical experts, he stands In the foremost ranks as a soloist of power. Professor Rose has been disappointed so far in the failure of Portland singers to come out and Join the union choir. Even from the 11 churches there has been a shortage of singers, only about 200 singers being in the union choir, whereas S00 are wanted. He hopes that the shortage will be more than made up during the remainder of the meetings. Ho Invites singers from very source to Join the choir. Dr Bulgin has accepted the Invita tion of the East Side Business Mens Club to be the guest at the club to morrow at the weekly luncheon at the Hotel Edwards. Grand avenue and Bel mont street. He will deliver the main address at this luncheon. The club has accepted an invitation to attend his meetings one night during the en suing week. 2 SENT TO PENITENTIARY Judge Paris Makes Examples of Confessed Bobbers. j Want your fate to be a warning to others of your kind, and I hope i it will do something toward stopping the wave of crime in Portland." said Circuit Judge Davis, of the criminal division, vesterday morning, when he sentenced Harry Kulcher and Robert W llson one to five years In the penitentiary for larceny from the person of Michael Plank. , j , Fulcher and "Wilson had pleaded guiltv to striking Plank over the head with 'a beer bottle in a rooming-house at Flrt and Tavlor streets, and rob bing him of 9S and a valuable Masonic ring Mabel Wygandt.
