H?H JON I S CLOSES GREAT REVIVAL IN INDIANA WITH Itlf CONVERTS. Evangelist of National Reputation Who Will Conduct Mooting in Sum tor April '25 to May 23rd Accom pH?hlng Wonderful Work In Middle Witt. Rav. Bob Jones, of Montgomery. Ala., who Is ranked among the four greatest evangelists of the United Statea will conduct a meeting In Sum* ter foi or.e month beginning April' t5th under '?.? auspices of the Sang? tar Ministerial Assoolation. More than a year ago the OMoriaUan lavttad Mr. Jones to hold a meeting Sun.tor, but he had engagements so far ahead that the first open date he had was for the month beginning April 25th. lfli. For the past several months he has been conducting meetings in the middle west and is now in Crawfordsvllle. Ind. He closed a meeting in Hartford City. Ind.. last week, which was productive of a gen? uine religious revival of remarkable Influence. The following account of the closing of the meeting is taken from the Hartford City Timcs-Ga sette: It's all over and done with, or It has 6nly Just begun, one or the other Is true. "rtob" Jones and his crew of work? ers have left Hartford City after con? ducting the most remarkable relig? ious campaign ever waged In Hart? ford City and winning 1.916 souls to Jesua Christ. The emotional excite? ment which four weeks haa held Hartford City In Its grip, reached its climax Sunday evening when ?be big campaign came to an enthusiastic end. Time alone will let] Whether Hartford t'lty's religious awakening reached its summit Sunday or only Just got a good start. The close of the tabernacle meet? ing Sunday evening came at the end of a memorable service. With ItM choir singing "God He With You Till We Meet Again" and the 4,000 people In the building giving the evangelist the chsutauqua salute, the bigg*sj series of gatherings that Hartford City or any other town of its size in Indiana has ever known, came to a close. Tiefte WM a great meeting at the tabernacle Sunday evening but the other services Sunday wore also momentous ones. Tin- building was crowded to the doors Sunday even? ting. It wss lit* rally peaked and hun? dreds were unable to get a seat, it is estimated o\rer 1,000 were turned away. When the men's meeting closed Sunday afternoon many men remain? ed In the building and then* were many women waiting to get inside. A number of the women carried bas? kets of lunch and ate their suppers In the tabernacle. At 5 o'clock the beg building wns almost half full and at 6 there were few seats left. It had been announced that the; service would b??in hi m.-.n ib.- buiblinu waa packed and the promise was kept. At 6.30. an hour earlier than I customary, the services w? re started. There was not an Inch of standing room unoccuple I. After one of the most interesting and Impressive ser? mons that "Hob" Jones delivered during- his stay in Hartford City 158 converts came forward Sunday even? ing. The Invitation was not prolong? ed and had the evangelist cared to hold on the evening service might havo been continued for hours. After four weeks' work, however, everyone was worn out and the services were reluctantly brought to a close. The afternoon. meeting for men only at the tabernacle was largely at? tended and Rev. Jones brought a mot Interesting message. "Hob" Jones is a man's man and he has been at his best at the men's services. His sermon Sunday afternoon was force? ful and direct and met with a ready ?? p .>:!.?? when 4?? came forwai I, The i-undnv morning service ;?t th''j tuhemacic was attended by an enor-1 nuNM crowd. There was no gervloei in the churehes and the tabernacle building was filled to its seating ca caplty. "Bob" Jones talked on the subject of "Heaven" and 16 converts came forward. The meetings held at the If. K., Presbyterian and U. R. churches Sunday afternoon were all largely at? tended. At the Methodist church Mrs. Allison spoke to the women and ' held a very interesting service. The church was crowded as was the Presbyterian church where Mrs. Meinardi spoke to the girls and held a very Impressive and fruitful ser? vice. At the U. R. church, Jose, the Filipino spoke to several hun.lrod boys and conducted a most excellent meeting. There wore a total of 80 conversions at these ' three services Sunday afternoon. Tho members of the "Rob'' Jones party have all left Hartford City. Mr. and Mrs. Jones and son. Rob, Jr.. left Monday morning for Indianapolis where they will spend a week resting until the opening of the meetings at Crawfordsvllle next Sunday after* noon. Mr. and Mrs. Garrett Mein? iardi left Monday morning for Craw* fordsville, going as far as Indianap? olis with Mr. and Mrs. Jones. Mr. Meinardi will line things up for a i <>using meeting at C'ra\vfoi ds\ illo and have everything ready for an au? spicious opening next Sunday. Mrs, Frances Allison left early Monday morning for her home in Chicago win it she will rest for a week. The members of the Jones party made many friends in Hartford City dur? ing their stay and the best wishes of hundreds follow them. "Bob" Jones leaves Hartford <' i t \ prodded into a feeling of religious concern and there ore many gueasei as to what the harvest will be. At the meeting for men Sunday after? noon the evangelist again urged the rotors present to go after the liquor tratlio tooth und toe nail and judging from the response his remarks met with, agitation to remove the saloons from Hartford City Is apt to follow soon. "Rob" Jones says that when men lind Christ tiny vote "dry' 'and thai he believes Hartford City will be In the "dry" column before long. Heul Kstnte Transfcra, Fannie H, Dunne to s. a.
