Revival in Progres terian C Pastor Phillip A. Mickel began a| series of revival meetings at the Prssbyterian church last Sunday evening. Carrying out the spirit of fellowship and cooperation that has ' been so evident among the denominations of Bamberg recently, both the Baptist and Methodist churches called off their evening services and joined with Mr. Mickel in the worship at the Presbyterian church. Likewise the mid-week prayer services at both j churches Wednesday evening were called off in order that the congregations of all the churches of the town might attend the revival meetings, which are being held twice daily throughout this week, at 10 o'clock in the morning and 8:30 in the evening. A very cordial invitation is extended by the pastor and congregation of the Presbyterian church to the people of Bamberg and surrounding country to attend the services, which are conducted by the pastor. A large congregation attended the meeting Sunday evening, and it was rewarded by hearing a strong appeal for a revival in the church and town in the lord's work. The pastor read the first eleven verses of the third ' chapter of Habakkuk for the Sripture lesson, and his text was taken from the second verse, "O, Lord, revive Thy work." ? The Sunday evening sermon was directed mainly to Christians and was a plea that the church people themselves first get right with ; G-od and then go out and perform the work that has been entrusted to them by the Lord. Habakkuk prophesied twenty-five UiUrtn ? ny, I The following paper was read be- 1 fore a recent meeting of the U. D. C. by Mrs. W. P. Jones: ^ When our president phoned me a 1 few days ago that I was on the pro- * gramme for Gleanings, I was puzzled, non-plussed, as to just what was expected of me. I thought at first of refusing, ^pleading a headache?any- J thing?rather than acknowledge my ignorance, but immediately an extract on spirtualism, which is being so widely discussed today, came to t me. It is this: "The great question 1 as to whether the dead still live con- I tinue^ to occupy the front of the na- i t tional stage." But the real question c ought to be, "Will the dead people * we see all about us ever come to life s before they pass over?" -The world ^ is full of people in all stages of dis- a solution, "''hen and there I determined that the chapter shall not be made up of dead members this new S year of 1921, that I must be alive 1 and take my part. I Surely this item will be of interest ^ to all chapter members: "For all time henc? for the first White House" of the Confederacy at Montgomery, about which much southern history s has been constructed since 1861, will t standvas a monument to the cause for C which southern men gave their lives ^ in the conflict between the states." I A friend to whom I had turned in = my quest for something to glean, suggested that I discuss some subject of world-wide interest. I at once thought of telling you of Charles q Garland's refusal to accept the million bequeathed unto him, but she C said: "Oh, pshaw, that is old, Mrs. _ Kirsch (or Mrs. Frank Bamberg) and Mrs. Glenn Cope have already written him and asked that it be turned over to Jimmie Morris. Why can't you tell us something of Woman's Suffrage, of how to vote, our duties as citizens, etc. So I shall if you'll allow me to look ahead a bit. 'Here is a very interesting item from The Bamberg Herald, September 1921, scene, court house. "Have yon ever appeared as a member of the jury in a suit before? asked the bully-ragging attorney." Why, of course!" replied Mrs. J. C. Lewis, who was in the jury box. "What suit was it?" "It was a blue suit with a white collar and white cuffs and white buttons down the back," replied Mrs. Lewis. To m? a very important question is: "How shall we create a demand for cotton goods and so raise the price of cotton. Here is a suggestion from a writer to a well-known newspaper. He thinks that if the ladies w*ould lengthen their skirts it would go far towards improving conditions in the textile industry. Righto, as the British say. There is a big cotton crop, 13,000,000 bales, this year and the cotton mills are running on reduced time. Someone has declared of you add an inch to a Chinaman's skirt, it would require all the cotton raised in Ellis county, Texas. What if you added 6 inches or more to the skirts of the women of America So ends my gleanings and still my friend seemed dissatisfied. "Mrs. Dickinson," she said, "had such witty. cheerful items." So ladies our new departure, "Gleanings," can be s at Presbyhurch This hundred years ago under King Jehoichim. The people had wandered away from God and were worshipping divers idols and gods, but had forgotten the living God. The plea of the prophet was for the people to get back to the religion of the one God who had protected them and brought them that far. The theme offered an excellent foundation for the development of an initial sermon in a revival, and Mr. Mickel presented it in an earnest and telling manner. He urged that the work of Christians in a revival is worth nothing unless the individual is in tune with God's spirit. His plea was that all professors of Christianity, get down on their knees to their God and seek forgivenness for their sins before attempting any personal work, and then pray and work earnestly for the success of the revival in Bamberg. He urged that the workers follow up their prayers by personal visits; to pray earnestly and expect for their prayers to be answered. A fine spirit of fellowship was evident at the meeting, and it is believed that much good will be accomplished as a result of the revival. Mr. Mickel leads the singing himself and he has few superiors in this line. Sunday evening his voice was rather hoarse, but he is now himself again, and the splendid singing is one of the attractive features of the meetings. The Baptist and Methodist pastors and their congregations have joined in the revival, and are adding their prayers and work that the whole town might receive a blessing from the services. made very difficult when your predecessor has established a precedent to which you can't meausr? up or rrrtT^rr aocr Tcrhon fbe nnp before vou J TT UVU VT ^ v las made a failure.
