CAMPAIGNISIN FOURTH STAGE Evangelistic Campaign Os Methodis Church Is A Big Success The third stage of the very success-] ful evangelistic campaign by the Methodist church was concluded with the service Sunday night. There' were two weeks of meetings and two' weeks of man-to-man visitation evangelism. The services yesterday and; the week preceding were well attended. There have been eighty-eight accessions to the church and many others who have decided will unite with the church soon. The Rev. Madison Swadener, of the Anti-Saloon League, spoke at the Sunday morning service. Rev. Swadener is an accomplished public speaker and he presented the latest prohibition information in a very interesting manner yesterday. His hearers were thrilled many times by his graphic accounts of this good movement. The victory is only partially won, he declared. If the people will give loyal support within five years the liquor forces will be subdued and the victory concluded and within a few years more there is likely to be a dry world, he said. The fourth stage of the evangelistic campaign is begun and will be concluded on Easter Sunday. Services will be held the week preceding that Sunday. In the meantime visitation will be distinctly evangelistic. The aim will be to secure additional decisions and to instruct and strengthen those who have just begun the Christian life.
