f(f , Revival Sweeps Inavale. (Continued from llrst page.) tlii.H tiniL', and when tho revival began tho bund of W(irl!rH soon saw tho re sults of their prayers, Ono of the bestfeaturcsof the revival lmH been the awakening of our people to the possibilities of gospel music. This has been full of life nml the. young people have learned that they can enjoy church music just ns well as rag time and cake-walk varieties. Kven tho children have scrambled for places in tho choir and the school yard has rung at recess with tho strains of gos pel songs. "Old Time Religion" has been an especial favorite with them. There is something bo childlike and unaffected in this old melody that it makes it vory powerful in the voicing of tho gospel. The lines. "Ii mikes mo Ioto everybody, It innkes inu lovo everybody. AM' ItH Kood ciioukIi lor me," are great favorites and have done much to promote harmony and warm the hearts of the people. Some of our business men have learned that a revival of this kind in stead of hindering their business will help to promote tin interests of tho town. It is no doubt better thim a street fair, and our people have taken a greater interest in the meetings, doubtless, than they ever would a chautauqua assembly, Resides being spiritually edified they have been en tertained and instructed along many lines that are helpful. Some of our business men chuckled with satisfaction at somo things Mr. Calloway said in the meeting theother night. He requested the ladies to re move their hats for the comfort of those behind these hats. All but two two or three did so. Then the evangel ist added, " -unless you got them at Sears & Roebuck's. If you got them there we will be glad to have you keep them on." Then tho gorgeous headgear came oil", the owners smiling good natnrcdly. Tnavale has been most fortunate in having three young men here from Minden who have done splendid serv ice in personal work. These boys wore converted in tho great revival con ducted by Mr. Hicks and Mr. Callo way in Minden and are soon to enter the Moody llible Institute, Chicago. One of these is Will Patterson, who was saved from a drunkard's life. Tho other night aftei the meeting hail dis missed Will found a young man who was intoxicated and got him interested about his soul. He found Mr. Alex ander who explained to him tho way of salvation and a group of them knelt in the church and had a prayer. The penitent prayed the publican's praver most earnestly and Mr. Patterson took him to spend the night witli him so he could help him and sympathize with him. Tho other two boys are "Have" Adams, the crack baso ball pitcher of the Minden league, and Antono Nel son, another player of tho same team. Those two played with Inavale against the lied Cloud nine last Monday. "Dave" excited much interest by his skillful curves. He is ono of tho best pichers in Nobrsska. lie is entering into religous work with as much zeal as ho displays on the diamond. All these young men have made many friends and had a most wholesome in lluenco on our boys and young men. Mr. Alexander and Mr. Calloway will begin a meeting at Lawrence at the close of this, and probably be at Hhi den about the lath of April. We feel that the churches have been given an uplift that will last for all time by their coming to Inavale. tho people there will remember them witli much inter est. A Wom Kuom Tin: Evamim.isis To the Editor of the Chief: We wish jointly toexpressour thanks for, and appreciotion of, the courteous treatment accorded us by tins people of Inavale. They have co-operated with us in all things, and of course such a blessing could not have come upon them without earnest prayer and per sonal work on the part of tho church. The Lord's word says that if his people will humble themselves and call upon Him in prayer He will "revive as the corn." This He has certainly done. We also wish to make a public ac knowledgement of the consecrated ser vice of the pastor, Rev. Hill. We re gard him as one of the noblest of the Mastor's servants. He is wide-awake, he is fearless, he is kind, he is true. Luke U I. E. S.

Words are inadequate to express my appre ciation of the noble work done at Ina vale. I can most heartily recommend them to any one needing the sorviccs of good evaugelints.

To show you tho great adva tago the Panhandle has over you, wo want to quoto n few figures on tho sowing and yield of wheat at tho experiment station, a short distance from whoro wo offer you theerv groat bargains in land.
