A remarkable testimony meeting was wltneesed at the Baptist church last night. Eighty-three people stood and one by one spoke concerning their personal relation to Christianity, many of them speaking for the first time in their lives. This came as the climax of an effective service -conducted by Rev. Dr. M. P. Boynton, who is heading revival meetings with the Baptist con gregation. Dr. Boynton has given the impression of being earnest and genuine, not a sensationalist nor a radical. His work In building up a great church In Chicago proves his merit. Fifteen years ago he became pastor of the Ixlngton Avenue Baptist church, which was then a very small affair with a little frame building. By sane, sens ible methods and by true-hearted serv ice he has built up a membership of over one thousand and erected a beau--i NELL Jack Eessey s new leading lady,
