The Union Revival Cainpaign is under
fullwing and large audiences are filling the
Methodist Church to hear evangelist
Johnston and party preach and sing the
gospsi. Never in the history of Wingham
9,tis such a strong and talented body of
workers been heard. The E. I). Johnston
Party is recognized today as being one of
the very strongest in the field.
The great chofus choir in which are the
finest singers of this community is doing
splendid work under the direction of Prof.
Ray G. Swartzbaugh. The hearty man-
ner in which they respond to his en-
thusiastic appeal is truly gratifying.
Sunday was a great day for Wingham.
Members of the Party visited at the morn-
ing hour the different churches which are
associated in the campaign Mr Johnston
speaking at the Baptist church, Mrs.
Johnston and Miss Ditzel conducting the
services at Whitechurch, and Mr. Swartz-
baugh singing both at the Salvation Army
hall and the Methodist church. Again at
3.30 p. m. in the Town Hall a large
audience listened to the evangelist on the
subject "Tarry Ye At Jerusalem," at 7.30
in the Methodist church the early part of
the service was one of song in which it
seemed everyone took an active part in
the singing of several well known 'hymns.
The' song service was led, by Mr Swartz,.

later sang the solo ' "We Must;Pray ; For
