SUCCESSFUL MEETING CLOSES

• On Monday evening the special services closed at the Christian church with the largest attendance of any service in the series and five coming forward to make the confession and take membership with church. The results of the meetings will be far reaching. There were 63 came forward, and the attendance increased at almost every service. Thirty-five came in the last three days of the meeting, which assures many accessions to the church during the next few weeks. One of the largest baptismal sendees ever held in this church was conducted on Monday night when 29 were baptized. It was a very beautiful service. Next Sunday morning the new members will bo received into the church and the service will be planned especially for these. There is promise for many more to come at this service.
