The two weeks of special Lenten -Services held .at the Evangelical church came- to a close Sunday ev­ ening although Lent continues until Easter. Rev. W, E. Beese, of Tav­ istock gave efficient service-, four ev­ enings last week. There were a num­ ber .of decisions for the Christian life and the Christians themselves somewhat revived. Home religion was very much emphasized and we trust that the Family Altar League has increased in numbers, The en­ tire services also conveyed the idea that Protestants might apply them­ selves more earnestly to self-denial and prayer, especially appropriate during the season of commemoration like Lent; Good Friday and Easter. How much superior that is to feast­ ing, dancing and other ■ (amusements-.
