Among the speakers already secured

Impressive Religious Services.
The l'cnn Avenue Baptist church Is
passing through unother season of spir
itual qtilclccnlng. The great congrega
tions which attend the services have
more than a passing Interest in the
singing by the grand chorus choir and
the attractive services. Many are truly
seeking u higher and better life. Dr.
Pierce baptized twenty-nine persons by
Immersion last Sunday, and at the even
lug meeting twenty-live others ex
pressed iv. desire to live Christian lives.
The officers and members have cause
for rejoicing over the interest in this
historic church, which Is a landmark in
the religious life of our city. The sing
ing of the old hymns at the evening
services is an Interesting feature. Many
of these hymns are placed upon the
screen by the aid of a powerful stere
optlcon, and the vast audience sings
fioni the illustrated hymn, without tho
aid of the books.
Sunday Evening Lecture.
Some time ago, Dr. McLeod announc
ed a series of Sunday evening lectures
similar to those given by him In former
years. Among the subjects were: "An
Evening with Jesus;" "An Evening In
the Catacombs;" "An Evening with the
Church Fathers."
These are subjects in which all chris
tians of every denomination should be
Interested. Chrlstlandom owes an im
mense debt to "The Church Fathers,"
and Dr. McLeod will give a sketch of
some of these "Fathers" tomoi row
evening in the First Presbyterian
church.

From Authoi's Notes in "The Siindnv School
Le-eion IlliHlrator," Published by F. II,
Itcvcl & Co., Chicago, 111.
Gulden Text "Repent )c thrrefoie, and be inn
veiled, that jour bins may he blotted out."
Ac. 111:11).
Saul of Tuisih was a very different man from
Paul the pic.ichcr of righteousness. When on the
Damascus to id, hastening to persecute the clill-
drcn of God, Ills mid-day nnest leads lo the com
plete change in his life. The old naluie and
spirit of evil arc cast out and Saul, ttie sinner, is
transformed by the spliil of God into Paul, the
npostlc. v
"There is no other nnmc under heaven, Riven
among men, whcicby we must bo saved," but
J1&U3, Paul's Savior and thine.
Suggestions Draw the outline of tlie pathway
to indicate the mad ever which Paul Journe.vcd
from Jerusalem to Damascus. Write tlie word
SAUL, to indicate the name as fallen and l.iing
piostrate in the way. Above this mine piint in
laige letters the name PAUL, vciticnlly, to indi
cate the changed name and Paul's obedience to
tlie command, "Atisc."
Color Hints Make the mountain light blue;
landscape, gicen and white; pathway, orange,
with white outline; nime, SAUL, blown with
white edges; name, PAUL, while with fc.ii let
edge.
All peisons in.ly not be com cited in the simo
manner as Paul, but all may he converted who
truly desiio it, and who will be obedient to the
revelation of tiulh lo their lic.uK Salvation will
give us a new mime (Chiistian): it will give us
new povveis; it will give us now- life; it will give
us new and unending Joj s.
When the gieat light shone at midday vipon
tlie Damascus load, Saul llie avenger was ur-
lested and convicted anil conveited, and Paul
llie apostle was boui.
'llie swoiil uf slauglilei was shc.itlied iiuil tlie
svvoul of the Spiilt became might) in the haul
of the coldier of the cio-s,
Saul lived toi .self and the gloi) of his people.
But Paul lived tor Jesus Cluist and found h'.s
ihief Joy in gloiif)ing Ids blessed I.nnl and
Sav ioi .
In the uom of Cluist I ghu.i,
Tuwciing o'lr the. wied.s of lime;
