Six'nkcrs Heard One of the major reasons. why people .get enjoyment from the service of tho gospel team Is tie cause of: 'the fact that those who do the speaking. In lli'osl Instances, nre men who have just recently found Christ and, unable to preach gospel 'sermons, tell from their hearts of the Joys that come from obeying. the promise of Christ that whosoever would confess him be fore men ho would confess that limn before the father.

Me stated ' that' ll perhaps scenicd peculiar to those former friends to see him In the , pulpit. "Hut," he slated, "friends. 1 am not the same man that you knew. I have become acquainted with Jesus Christ and, praise the Lord. I nm a changed man. ' I am proud to stand before the world nnd acknowledge my saviour." Jack Back Aguln President C.uy Davis announced ns the second speaker, .lack llem- street. This was Mr. llemslreet's F second nppenrance and he even I outdid his former speech. Some f time prior to lieing converted In the tabernacle, Mr. llemstreet had I some 20 years' theatrical experi ence and those 20 years, while not being spent In doing the Lord's work, nevertheless fltwd him for real service for the Lord and (con- J ( fldentlally) the gospel team is, going to make use of his capublll I tics as a speaker. Ho stated thatj he had planned to talk on the sub-j Ject of "Mother" but that Mr. Jack- j son had covered the subject so wellj that he was going to talk about something else, lie delved into the subject of "Is There a God?" a question that, he said, puzzled his 4 mind for many years while he read i the works of infidels and scientists. I 1 He pointed out how, If people will 1 only look about them, tiod is mani fested In thousnnns oi , umei -m ways. He praised the work of the gospel team, nnd urged "the boys" not to get discouraged if at times IDelr efforts seemed to not be bear ing fruit. He stated that the gospel team had not only revived the . Christian spirit in hundreds of people but that It had brought six people to the nltar. "Noah," be said, "tried for 120 years to convert people and he never saved one out side his own Immediate family."
