Christians of Ceredo Have
Him Hunting New
Quarters.
Judging from the number of con
versions that have taken place at
the M. E. church during the paet
two weeks, the devil will soon have
to begin seeking pastures a new.
Up to this lime over fifty people
have cast aside their sin-olad gar
ments ami robed themselves in
white. Old Nick has been on the
jump ever since Rev. Fallen
started the revival and at this time
there is no telling when it will slop,
tiouls who have traveled the wide
road are reeking the straight and
narrow path nightly. Practically
all of these have signified their in
tention of unitiug with some churoh,
many having all ready done so.
At Sunday morniug’A meeting six.
teen joined the M K. church and
as many more have signified that
they intended joiniug the same
church. Those joining Sunday
were: Naacy Smith, Lizzie Carver,
Bertha Fallen, Lillian Jarrell,
KuhhcII Rolibins, Sarah Runyon,
B. F. Christian, Mrs. B. F. Chris
tian. Ella Thompson, Gladys Bruin.
Held, Hazel Jeffers, Mvrtle Stafford,
Ivan Stewart, Ethel Williams, Oleta

A beautiful sight was presented
at Sunday evening’s meeting. JW hen
Rev. Fallen called upon the con
verts to come forward and give tes
timony unto the Lord, about thirty
young people marched down the
aisles to the alter and with faces
beaming with divine light gave
praise to Him who has the soul
saving grace.
Interest in the meetings seem to
increase instead of abating and they
will continue throughout the week,
