What strange Providence is this, that Bryan’s death should wing his last words, in defense of the word of God, o’er the civilized world!

          “I have just attended an eight-days’ meeting at Whitewright, Texas. Brother S. P. Pitman did the preaching and Brother R. H. Rogers led the song service. The Texas people were very much pleased with Brother Pitman’s preaching and hope to have him with them again next summer. Brother J. N. Armstrong is conducting a meeting at Tom Bean now. He improves with age, I think.” – Leila Parrish.

          From Carthage, Tenn.: “Three months’ work in this county has resulted in five additions to the church.  I think there is also an increased attendance both here and at Dixon Springs. There has never been a resident minister in the county, and some of the members are married to denominational people. The consequence is a lack of Bible knowledge and a rather difficult place to teach in the homes of even ‘our folks.’ But most of the attendance at our meetings seem to be anxious to hear the truth.

          We began a fifteen-days meeting July 26, Brother A.C. McEwen, of Winchester, Ky., leading the singing.” M.D. Baumer.

          Our work in Shreveport prospers—about sixty additions this year. T. W. Phillips, Jr.

          From Meaford, Ontario: We have been here nearly three months, and we like the work better all the time. —E. Gaston Collins.

          From, Chattanooga: I continued a tent meeting in Alton Park, suburb of this city, the meeting having been started by Brother Graham, of St. Elmo Church.

          Central church is getting on very well. Work in general in Chattanooga seems very good. Several meetings have recently been held with several additions of the church. —E. H. Hoover.

          Wanted: To know the address of any Christiaan in or near Grand Rapids, Michigan. Also, any information about any meeting of Christians, publicly or privately there. I want to get in touch with those who have not been corrupted from the simplicity and the purity that is toward Christ. Kindly send any information to me. It will be of interest to the church and two young Christians, husband and wife, of Meaford, who now live there. E Gaston Collins.

          From Bryantsville, Ind.: We are getting along very well on the new building. The half of the rafters are up so we will soon have roof over us. To some of us the work is proving quite an inspiration. Hollis C Sherwood.

          Began meeting at Harris Schoolhouse last night with good interest—J. M. Hottel.

          From Glenmora, La.: We are hoping to have a meeting in September with Brother R. C. Bell doing the preaching.  A. K. Ramsey.

          Eighteen were baptized, and others added to the congregation in the recent Clymore-Cauble meeting at Fisherville, Ky. Brother Clymore goes next to Eubank.

          I was helper to Brother Chambers through eight services of the Ebeneezer meeting, near Harrodsburg. Nineteen additions, sixteen of them by baptism during the meeting. Brother Chambers teaching was superfine.

          It was my privilege to address the Rotary Club of Mitchell, In., July 14, on “The Need of God in Life Today.” E. L. Jorgenson

          Brother Boll is having excellent meetings in Texas—in Dallas, and at Files Valley church, near Grandview, where R. A. Zahn is leading the song service. A number have become obedient to the faith. Brother Boll is to begin at Old Union, near Gallatin, Tenn., soon.

          Stanford Chambers began a meeting at Bohon, Ky., July 29. Bohon is a good, a large, and growing church. Foreign mission work has been recently undertaken.

          George Klingman is “cleaning up” the southern part of the Monon Route this summer! Pekin, Ind., July 19-31; Borden, August 2-16; New Albany, August 27-30. Brother Klingman returns to the work that is near to his heart—the Christian school—this Fall.

         D. H. Jackson, of Toronto, is coming again for a meeting with the Buechel church, just outside of Louisville, this summer. All who have heard his masterly presentation of our one gospel last year are delighted. Sister Jackson is to make the trip this time also.

          Geo. R. Johnson and Brother Boll are in a meeting at High View, Ky.

          Cordell, Okla., puts in an order for 200 copies of the new, shape-note hymnal, “Great Songs of the Church.” Almost all the Bible school congregations use this book. Abilene, Cordell, Dasher, Graton, Morrilton, Nashville, Wichita—possibly others. Why?

          An attractive Directory of West Side Central Church, Detroit, comes to our desk, showing a present membership in the congregation of 462. We were tempted to reprint some of Brother Witty’s excellent material on “Evolution.,” which appears in the book.

          From Cynthiana, Ky.: We are looking forward with hope and pleasure to our meeting with Brother Chambers preaching at Salem. Meeting begins third Lord’s Day in August. All-day meeting the fourth Sunday, with dinner on the ground. We are counting on a big day with many visitors from other churches. Brother Von Allmen and family of Louisville, were present with us on the first Lord’s Day in July. —E. E. Kranz.

          The report of the Louisville Christian School work, conducted by the Portland Ave. Church has gone out beyond the local borders, and many are interested. Many are praying for, and even giving to the work. Tuition is entirely free; yet, last year, all expenses were met in free-will gifts. The school will open again September 7, and the applications are likely to exceed the seats. For definite information, address the Principal, Stanford Chambers, 2605 Montgomery Street, Louisville.

          The Bible Course for Christian workers, conducted by Brother Boll, opens in November, as usual. A number of preaching brethren from far and distant states have already asked for rooms.
