Sunday was another red letter day.
The Sunday school started the day’s
interest. Mr. Day came as a represen

us some interesting remarks. At 11
a. m. the pastor preached on "Spiritual
Infancy”. At 7:30 p. m. a praise meet
ing was led by Rev. S. E. Gross in
which the young people took a very
active part. At 8 p. m. Rev. A. W.
Jones preached on "Feast of Belte
shazzar”, we were all stirred by the
message. Sunday, September 2, will
be a great day. The pastor is plan
ning to preach at 11 a. m. and at 8
p. m. a minister from Cincinnati, O.,
is expected to fill the pulpit.
The second Sunday in September
will be our last quarterly meeting for
the conference year.
