In a Detroit paper appears the following: “The success which attended the opening of the West Side Central Church of Christ last Sunday afternoon was manifested by the immense crowd which taxed the capacity of the church. Claud F. Witty, the minister, deserves great credit in bringing about the means whereby the people in the Grand River section can have easy access to his services. The location of the church is at Grand River and Fourteenth. Commencing next week, the subjects upon which the minister -will preach will be announced regularly in the columns of this paper. Everybody is welcome to attend these services.”

Browning, Mo., Oct. 17: “The meeting here continues; Brother Chas. L. Speir is doing his part well. He says the crowd Sunday night was the largest that has been since he has been laboring with this church. At the close of this week I have spent six weeks in North Missouri with the saints of God at Shelby, Purdin and Browning. This closes my engagements for 1922. I will possibly’· go home at the close of this meeting for a few days. Those desiring my services for the present o the next year will please address me at my home, 104 Eleventh St., Mena, Ark. Bro. Speir will be available for located work in the near future and you will make no mistake by calling him.”—

“The meeting with the Bethel congregation near Franklin, Ky., resulted in 5 baptisms and one from the denominations previously baptized. The attendance was good throughout, the spirit fine, and there was great joy among the disciples as those coming were the sons whose salvation meant much to the hearts of the brethren. Began here at Monterey Lord’s day.  ”We had a good meeting at Winchester, Ky. Was there twelve days with the main St. church.
