Many who l.sve had the privilege
to hear both "Hilly" Sunday and

be taken out of one of his great
meetings, and Mr. Waters, put in,
that Waters Would out lose a man aa
far a attendance is concerned.
let's learn if these statements are
true by going out to bear the much
talked-of preacher.
This is a meeting for all, may all
