eyond
spirit
"la a revival possible In Indepen
denceT" waa tha query In the mlndi
of the cltlieua four weeks ago. Th
united effort of the varloua church
ea, led by Evangelist Taylor, ha
proved that our city is not be
resurrection. By earnest preaching
much genuine enthusiasm and heart
to heart appeals by both ministers
and laymen in church, auditorium and
places of business, the town has re
ceived an unaurpasaed moral uplift.
Last Sunday afternoon the s
of tho meeting waa ao Intense tha
great stout-hearted men trembled an
wopt. Five prominent cltlsens accept
ed Christ. Those who have been ac
customed to attending church aervlcea
aald they never aaw anything like it
for power and heart searching ap
peals. In the evening alx or aeven
more came forward. On Monday
night eight more came and on Tues
day the revival waa on in "old fasb
loned style." It aeemed that the
evangelist would not get through re
ceiving the handa of those beginning
for Christ. Ever since, the spirit
and earnestness have been at a
white beat and it la difficult to pre
dict what proportion future meetlnga
will aaaume. That the revival la giv
ing Independence a great moral boost
is admitted,' even by those who at
first were skeptical.
Rev. Taylor'a able handling of the
aubjocta "Chickens Come Home to
Roost," "What Will You Do with Je
bus Who Is Called the Christ," "Ten
Reasons Why I Am a Christian," and
many other themes, has brought
much conviction, and many who hith
erto have been recklesa are now se
riously considering the question of
salvation. Seldom have people been
more responsive to the truth and anx
ious to profit by it. Independence
la not beyond reach, which la demon
strated by the fact that over one
hundred and fifty were converted up
to Wednesday.

membership - twenty-seven persons.
Manr who intended to come were hin
dered because of the storm and sick
ness. They with those who have
signified their Intention to unite with
the Methodist church since will come

ial service for baptism, reception of
members and the Sacrament.
On Thursday, through the kindness
and courtesy of the Baptist church,
the Methodists used their baptistry
to baptize those who preferred im
