The writer, his wife and the fol-
lowing named other persons, Mrs.
T. F. Abbott. Mrs. Bob Davidson and
T. W. C. Nealy attended No. 13 dis-
trict meeting of the state at Mineral
Wells last Thursday in the interest
of the 75 Million campaign. We had
a good represenation from that dis-
trict which Includes Palo Pinto, Ste-
phens, Young, Jack. Eastland and
Erath counties. The women of that
district had a most excellent meet-
ing in the auditorium while the
men met in the basement.
The need of putting on an urgent
earnest campaign was stressed that
we may succeed in overcoming the
difficulties of tlie present time and
collect a good share of the 75 mil-
lion pledge between now and May 3.
The writer lias been asked by the
State Board leaders to act as publi-
city director lor Parker county and
we have agreed to do the best we
can so we will be letting the Bap
tists of Parker county hear all along
that all the interest possible may
be created at this time. Watch for
notices of the work in the papers
and that you will receive otherwise
through the mails. We all need to
know anew that we will have to
have great interest if we succeed in
raising the prorata of our pledge
by May 3rd. Let us get in after it
the Evangelist spoke on the “Model
Church. “ All who heard this ser-
mon pronounced it the strongest ser-
mon delivered by the Evangelist
since coming to Weatherford. He
gave some straight talk to church
members. He characterized the
growth of the first church at Jeru-
salem in it is own peculiar way. He
quoted the Scripture in the second
chapter of Acts, revealing what the
first church did in order to enjoy
such a substantial growth. There
were 3,000 added in one day. “And
they continued steadfastly in the
apostle’s doctrine, in lellow-ship, in
the breaking of bread and in prayer".
A church doing the things described
In “this verse must succeed. The
reason _ why the church is on a
standstill is because we are not
using the means of growth and de-
velopment. This sermon had much
original wit and humor in it. Sun-
day morning at the close of Sunday
school, two young people made the
con fession.
A big mass meeting of -the mem-
bers of the church was held at 4:00
o’clock in the afternoon. Plans were
launched Spr carrying on the revival
during Hie week. Several enthusias-
tic talks were made by those pres-
ent. At the close of this service,
there was one addition by statement.
On last evening the house was
jammed—every available seat in the
house was put to use. About seven-
ty-five people were turned tjway on
account of being unable to get a
seat. A number of people stood in
the back of the house throughout
Mr. McKissick’s sermon. Mr. Mc-
Kissick preached on “Conversion II
lustrated.” He presented an exegeti-
cal study of quite a number of terms
common to Biblical parlance. This
phase of the sermon was quite in-
structive, as Mr. McKissirk is a
I-atin, Hebrew and Greek scholar.
During this sermon the Evangelist
made a strong appeal to sinful men
to (urn from sin to Christ. He saM,
that all men everywhere shoulnning
repent, and repentance means tes, or
turn—it means to direct your powetbales,
within the channels of righteousnesports
instead of serving the devil. At th, t|le
close of this service, three youn,
men made the confession. Tin anc|
large audience sat in rapt silenc*a j
while the young men with reverence
stated that they believed that Jesusj914
Christ was the Son of the Living .
God
The song services led by Mr. Tro-
linger are great. The grand old |
hymns of Zion are being empha-
sized by the song director. Inst
evening the large audience sang "On
Jordan's Stormy Banks” as they
snng it fifty years ago. This was
especially a. delight to the older pee-
ple. Mr. Trolinger’s Booster Choir,
of children sang a. couple of verses'
last evening ai the request of Mr. I
Trolinger. The children are well :
trained and render real music.

The evening sermon was based on
1 Peter, 4:18, "If the righeous
scarecely be saved, where shall
the ungodly and the sinner ap-
pear?” J hat. little word "scarce-
ly indicates the extreme dif-
ficulty ot the salvation of an immortal
soul. '1 hat difficulty is seen in the
Father's part in planning a salvation
adequate to7save the whole world. But
in His infinite wisdom He decided to
send His only Son as savior and re-
vealor. Nor was it an easy thing for
Christ to do the work of the Savior.
We see many hardships in His out-
ward life, how He suffered privation
and persecution, despised and rejected
of men. He was misunderstood by His
friends, misrepresented by His ene-
mies, Such scenes and incidents as
His tears over Jerualem's rejection,
the agony of Gethsemane, the prayer
on Calvary, give ns a faint indication
of His inner sufferings.
Neither is it an easy thing for the
Holy Spirit to apply 4his redemption,
planned by the Father and purchased
at such a cost by the Son. He must
take the heart, biased, prejudiced and
hardened, and woo it over to God. Now,
if it costs the Father much to plan
it. the Son so much to work it out,
and the Spirit so much to apply it, and
yet. in the words of the text, “The
righteous scarcely be saved,” what will
become of the sinner, who does not
accept God's wonderful provision?
