THE METHODIST REVIVAL The interest is increasing all the time in the revival. Devisions are being niiide each evening and great goo<f is being done. Souls are being con- j vinc.ed of tyie need of a Savior and are accepting Christ as that Savior. I Rev. Thomas preaches sermons that are convincing. His question and prayer box are very interesting, and he strives to answer all questions it; | a reasonable way. If any have any questions that they desire to have answered place them in the box. He will make an effort to answer any reasonable question that is given. Tomorrow is prayer meeting time again. From 9:30 to 10. Remember only the half hour. Come on time and go on time. Do not visit, but ■:o and read the chapter and pray and then go home. All are invited to the e services whether Methodists or not. . We are not holding these services to make Methodists, but to induce p'-o-pie to become Christians. Remember that. A number already have made decisions that will not join the Methodist church. Others will do so. The prayer meetings will lie held ; at the following places: i No. 1 Mrs. F. Winans, captain: home, Mrs. Winans; leader, Mrs. Russell. I No. 2 Mrs. R. D. Myers, captain; home. Mis.

Mrs. Anne Davison, 2080 Myrtle street. Long Beach.. Cal., writes: “The result of using Foley’s Honey and Tur ‘ was a restful one for me.” Foley’s Honey and Tar cheeks harsh, racking coughs; eases wheezy breathing: : stops tickling in throat; covers raw. irritated surfaces with a soot king, healing coating.

This exhibit is said to be the largest Xnd most distinctive of its kind in the world. It has been in the makift for twenty-nine years and the present secretary of the chamlier, Frank Wiggins, is the man who gathered the first displays. From a few baskets filled with or anges placed in a show window, the exhibit has grown un .1 now it occupies two floors of the Broadway buildI ing. In the preserved fruits alone the»e are 2,009 large glass jars. There ; are twenty-one varieties of rare tropical fruits and forty-one varieties of oranges and lemons. Perhaps the most interesting feature of the casual visitor is the daily program. which begins at 9:30 and continues until 5 o’clock, the closing . time. Tlie day is divided into half-1 I hour periods in which are given illustrated lectures on the products, com-1 merce and scenery of southern Cali-1 fornia, and motion pictures. An average of 600 persons attend these lec-i tures. most of whom are from other, sections of the country. Fourteen huge | i registers, holding from 80,000 to 250,- : 000 signatures each, have been filled ' during the past quarter century. | , Among the names entered are those of ! dignitaries from every portion of the civilized world. There is hardly a town of over 500 population in the United States that is not registered. | No admission is charged to the ex-1 1 1ybit or lectures, as they are educaI tional and designed to inform any who wish to learn of life in southern i California.
