White, evangelist, will a series of Bible lectures at the big tent, corner of North Robert and Court streets, on Sunday evening, June 23, it is announced. The purpose of the meetings, according to Mr. White, is to deepen the interest in religion by presenting the fundamental truths of the religion of Christ with force, clearness and simplicity. The effort is a part of a widespreaH campaign, being fostered in every state in the union and in foreign countries. These campaigns have been conducted in America for more than half a century, Mr.

White said, and are yearly spending millions of dollars in extension of the principles of the gospel and the temperance cause. "This is not an ordinary revival, it is more," Evangelist White stated. The old-time gospel of Jesus Christ will be put into a new setting. This will be no tent meeting with noisy demonstration to displease the most cultured." In outlining the aims of the series, Mr. White said, "We have come to a time in national and international affairs the like of which has never been experienced from the beginning of time.

Our country needs the best service, and moral support that we individually can render. Never since there was a nation did governments need strong, sober, spiritual minded men, more than at the present. Nations are crumbling at their very foundations and lawlessness, anarchy and rebellion are prevalent in the land. "Not since the day that Jesus called thb 12 to follow Him was the church in sush indifference, coldness, spiritual degeneracy and lawlessness. This is a challenge to everyone who names the name of Christ to awake and put on the armor of God."
