STATE EVANGELIST
HOLDINGSERYICES
Rev. B. M. Long Begins Two
Weeks' Series of Meetings
at Wheeler Presbyterian
Church.
Rev. Dr. B. M. Long, state evan
gelist for Nebraska, and Prof. VV. O.
Grindle, muv.cal director, who is a
graduate in music of the Moody in
stitute, Chirago, began a two weeks'
series of meetings at the Wheeler
Presbyterian church, Twenty-third
and J streets, Monday night. Pro
fessor Grindle has added to the
church choir a junior chorus.
Speaking on "The New Evangel
ism," Dr. Long said: "When Lincoln
saw slaves sold on the auction block
in the south he declared if he ever
got a chanc? he would strike slavery
hard. He gt the chance, and signed
the emancipation proclamation. Pom-
pey and Caesar stood face to face.
Caesar did not want to enter the
fight, but Pompey pressed him, and
a terrible battle followed, and 80,000
were slain, Caesar looked on the
bloody scene and was shocked, but
said, 'Pompey would have it so.' The
new evangel. sm stands for home re
ligion. The most important thing in
the world today is home training. It
stands for the work of the eldership.
Every elder rhould have a parish. We
had evangeiim of the Jonathan Ed
wards type the Finney and Fulton
street prayer type. We have per
sonal evangelism. We are not saved
to go to heaven, but to serve."
Dr. Long's topic Tuesday night
will be "A Strange Dream."
