The Meeting.
The Methodist, meeting is in a good
way. It started 2nd day of May, and
iwo services have been held eyery day
since except Saturday. Bro. J. M.
Glenn was with us last week and la
bored very earnestly. The only mis¬
take he made that, could be seen from
our standpoint was the late hour of
night seryice. The appointments were
made far 8 o’clock sharp,; then start
any time from 8 to 8/25. That aiways
scatters the crowd and causes the peo¬
ple in be coming all times of the ser¬
vice- Tnis may never be corrected till
a time lock is on the oigau.
The service conducted by the Ep-
wortli League Friday night was very
interesting. A large crowd was pres¬
ent. Bro. Glenn’s talk on the subject
of Mother was one of the best ever
rendered here, provided he Bad sawed
it in two in the middle and left off the
last half. It was all good, but too
long.
Presiding Elder Stubbs is here this
in all o t bis glory. He seems to real¬
ize the imporlance of deep preaching,
and lie is pouring out the gospel to us
in such measures as Ashburn has been
needing a long time. His sermons
are calculated to reach the high and
the h'w, the meek and the great and
allot the common people. All of the
stores but three have closed for the
day service this week. The school
children and their teachers arc taking
special interest in the meeting. La¬
boring people are interested, and a
large crowd would t>e there every
night if they could hear the service
through and get home by 9 o’clock.
Four joined by letter last night.
Prof. E. W. F;iiu is tuuisliing most
excellent music for the occasion.
The meeting will last tell Sunday
night at lease Let averybody go.
