Series of Evangelical Meetings To Begin at Baptist Church Seen.

The First Baptist church is looking forward to a series of evangelistic meetings beginning Sunday evening, Jan 7 30th. The preaching will be done by Rev. A E. Clem, of Thomtown, Ind. Mr. Clem is a brother-in-law to Pastor Miller, and thus knowing each other they will not need to spend time getting acquainted with the manner of the other in conducting the meetings. He can only be with the church two weeks and in that time it is hoped much good will result. Mr. Clem needs no introduction to the church, having been in meeting here last summer. He comes as a pastor with no clatrap methods of influencing people, but by the plain, simple, message of the GospeL He recently closed a meeting in Lebanon where upwards of fifty were taken into the church. In preparation for these meetings Ahe church will hold cottage prayer f meetings four evenings during the week preceding the beginning of the meetings. Monday evening at the home of Mrs. Allie Porter; Tuesday evening at the home of Mrs. Amelia Dayton, South Weston street; Thursday evening at the home of James Jordan, in east part of town; Frida; evening at the home of Alexander Leach, in northwest part of town. These meetings will all be at seven 1 T~ o’clock. Wednesday evening the usual meeting at the church at 7:30. All who are interested in the Lord’s work are invited to these prayer services, especially is it hoped all members of the church will help to make the most of all the meetings.
