Bible School. 3p. m. Young Peoples Union. Notes The meetings under the direc tion of brethren Reese and Schol field were both inspiring and fruitful. They vindicated the power of the Gospel to save. At the close of the Monday night services 29 had joined the church. The preaching was clear, persua sive and convincing. One could hardly listen without being made to see his duty. The people of the town showed their apprecia tion. They came in great num bers. Never in the life of the town were such crowds at church services. The large church build ing was taxed almost to its ca pacity. The singing was exceptionally fine. It is not often that one hears a better chorus in a town like Jackson. Bro. Scholfield knows how to get people to sing. He sings. His interpretation is excellent, his enunciation is dis tinct. his technique is admirable, his spirit is devotional. The brethren have our hearts. We commend them. ‘‘TheScholfield chorus. Keep sweet and shine,” will not be forgotten soon.
