The meeting last night at the First Baptist church was a complete success in every way. The attendance was not quite as large as had been anticipated, nor as large as it should have been to hear the lecture, but good for the unpleasant evening. Mr. Tesh came up to the recommendations concerning himself and his work. It was announced at the meeting that the only reason he could come here was because of another engagement being canceled, until later, for which all who heard him were glad. The speaker is a southern man with the speech peculiar to the people, with a winning personality, in full command of his subject, which held his audience for more than an hour. He spoke of the need of men In all walks of life, who are Christian men, how they may be, and are being won. Being out under the auspices of the World-Wide Baraca and Philathea Unions, he dwelt at length on their work as an organized Bible Class, telling an imaginary, yet very real, experience of a strange young man In a strange city and how he was found out by the Bible Class, won lor Christ and the church, Ihstead of drifting into vice and ruin. _ Mr. Tesh left early Thursday morning for Hammond, where he speaks the last of four places in the state before going farther west.
