The revival meeting at the Aus-
tin Avenue church is growing dai-
ly in interest. Larger crowds and
better interest comes with each
service. Tonight the evangelist
will preach on “The Wrong
Place.” Those who have been at-
tending the services at the Austin
Avenue church are impressed with
the arnestness of the preacher
and the willingness of the congre-
gation to do all in their power to
make the meeting a big success.—
