Deity of Christ the mens meeting Sunday afternoon and the midweek Sabbath Wednesday The house was full Friday night to boar the address on amusements The text was tukon from 1 Cor 1031 32 After laying some fundamental princi ples on the start on which all could agree he took up and discussed on these principles card playing the theatre and the dance and showed by the testimony of those familiar with and engaged in these things the harmful results to character The logic was clear the tes timony convincing and the arguments unanswerable from a Christian stand point The address created a profound impression At its close several hundred Christians came forward and recouse crated their lives to the service of Christ In the sermon on The Deity of Christ Mr Lyon told the story of his own conversion from unbelief to accep tance of Jesus as the Son of God It was a helpful presentation of this fundamen tal truth and the -difficulties of many were replaced by a clean intelligent faith Sunday afternoon another fine audience of men listened to the talk on Sowing and Reaping This was one of the most fruitful meetings of the whole series Many began the Christian life and almost the whole audience ac knowledged the truth of the sermon and their desire to live a right life by a rising expression This address will be con tinued next Sunday afternoon Wednesday of this week was observed as a mid week Sabbath and the whole day given over to services The business houses closed from 200 to 430 in the afiernoon and gave all an opportunity to attend the afternoon meeting The day began with cottage prayer meetings all over toe city at 900 am conducted by the pastors The striking thing of these meetings was the testimony of the Chris tians to the helpfulness of the meeting It revealed clearly what a mighty power for good the meetings have been to the churches Afternoon and evening meet ings were held at the opera house and many converts were gathered This mid week Sabbath will be long remembered as a day of great blessing in McCook If anyone in McCook has not yet heard JVIr Lyon speakhe is urged to attend these next three days Expenses All Raised All will be glad to know that all the money raised for the union meetings h is been raised Sunday morning the execu tive committee made a financial state ment showing that the total expenses of the meetings would be 8S00 and that 6350 had been paid in by collections The audience was asked to make up the balance and in a few minutes it was all subscribed so that all bills can be paid in full at the close of the meetings None of this money has gone to Mr Lyon On Sunday a free will offering will be received for Mr Lyon No amount has been promised him but it is hoped that tho people will be liberal in their gifts tie has spent himself to the full extent for the meetings having spoken over sixty times which the ordin ary pastor does not do in six months An evangelist is busy on an average only half of the time if he is sick or meetings are cancelled he is entirely without pay The work is so exhausting that a mans years of labor are limited Mr Lyon do serves the gratitude of the people of Mc rinnW for

boyhood he was sent to England to be educated xVfter he was graduated from St Johns College Oxford he took at Neuchatel Switzerland a special course in langua ges This he supplemented by an ex tensive tour of Europe Senor Lala then returned to Manila where for ten years he was prominent in business and in social life Butbecauseof hissympathy with the cause then rising of the insurgents Spanish tyranny banished him whereupon became to this country Several years preceding the Spanish war Senor Lala transferred his allegiance to the United States the first Filipino ad mitted to American citizenship Senor Lala spent the greater part of the year 1902 in a visit to his native land where he has many friends and relatives ipcluding an aged father Traveling over all the islands and hav ing an extensive acquaintance with both natives and Americans ho gained a knowledge of the present situation such as no other person has ever obtained Now he has returned with a vast amount of new material and with many new pictures which will be used in revising his book and will also be incorporated in his lectures As an indication of the high esteem in which Senor Lalas knowledge of the Philippine Islands is Violrl his nresence since his return has freauently been requested in Washington by persons connected with tho adminis tration - Notice There have been so many enquiries regarding the way in which Evangelist Lyon is conpensated for his services that the executive committee desires to state that Mr Lyon has received absolutely nothing for his services so far The offerings Sunday will go to Mr Lyon The work our brotner nas aone has been the very best and the offering should be as generous as pos sible It should be remembered too that an evangelist loses much time from various causes and does not have an income for much more than one half of the year We believe in tho people of McCook they can appreciate so good a work as that which has been done and do not need to be urged to do the right thing A F Green Chairman Good bye Mens black melton overcoats with velvet collars are saying their good bye to the store daily at 369 Boys four teen to nineteen
