or reclaimed, and the unselfishness of the evangelizing church did much to strengthen the smaller neighborhood churches. In addi­ tion to their work in the evening services, Mr. and Mrs. Alexander conducted a daily children’s meeting. On January 1, Mr. and Mrs. Alexander began their present evangelistic work with Charles E. Fuller over the Mutual Broad­ casting System each Sunday night at 7:30 P.S.T. No week of broadcasting passes without the receipt of letters telling of conversions. Along with directing the pro­ gram and music for Dr. Fuller, Mr. and Mrs. Alexander are accepting calls to assist churches within driving distance of Los Angeles. They have just completed a two- weeks’ campaign with the First Baptist Church of Huntington Park, Calif. The pastor, Walter Pegg, did the preaching. T he F ather and S on E vangelists , Clar­ ence E. and Henry E. (Biola ’32) Hedrick of 4212 S. E. Raymond St., Portland, Ore., held meetings in Oregon in the month of December. A two-weeks’ evangelistic cam­ paign in Glide, Ore., resulted in decisions by at least thirty persons to receive the Lord Jesus Christ as their personal Saviour. One entire family of six were saved, and many were truly revived during the two weeks. A short but fruitful series of meet­ ings in the Southern Methodist Church of Myrtle Creek, Ore., was followed by serv­ ices in a school building near Myrtle Creek. The Father and Son Evangelists have a few open dates for meetings in the spring months. L. C. R obie (Biola ’18), Union Springs, N. Y., known as “ The Sky-Pilot,” closed on December 19 a five-weeks’ Victory Meeting in the Kennard and Old Salem M. E. Churches in Pennsylvania. A pray­ ing group covenanted to pray until the Lord should bring a great conviction upon lost souls. Mr. Robie writes: “ People began to get saved even in the homes. The great turning came when a group of young people, saved in a previous meeting near by, came and told their thrilling story.” On January 9, Mr. Robie was scheduled for services in the Maple Street M. P. Church, Stamford, Conn. His future itinerary is as follows: February—Kingston, N. Y .; March 1—M. E. Church, Sheakleyville, Pa., and April—M. E. Church, Belair, Mich. PRIDE OF THE CARRINGTONS [i Continued from page 52] “ You have made a mistake, Luella,” said Bertha softly. “ Why don’t you go home and tell your husband that you made a mistake and that you are sorry?” A hard look crossed Luella’s face. “ I— I couldn’t, Bertha. Why, I’ve never said ‘I am sorry’ in all my life. I just couldn’t. Why, I’d rather be miserable the rest of my life than to humble myself that way.” Bertha shook her head. “ You will be miserable, and not only in this life but in the life to come. God’s Word tells us that ‘there is none righteous, no, not one.’ ‘All have sinned, and come short of the glory

of God,’ and we are - to repent and be baptized for the remission of sins. T o re­ pent is to tell God that you are sorry and to turn from your own way and live G od’s way.” Then Bertha began to tell her the story of the Lord Jesus. There were tears in Luella’s eyes as she heard the gospel story of the Saviour of mankind. Her hungry spirit drank in the words of eternal life, and her eyes were opened. For the first time she saw the Lord Jesus Christ. How different all things looked in the light of her new birth! After they had prayed for wisdom and guidance for Luella’s problem, the way opened up before her. She knew then that there was only one thing to do. “ I can’t wait another minute, Bertha. I am going downstairs and ’phone Hugh this very instant.” Impulsively she kissed Bertha’s cheek and went softly out the door. * » » Luella, safe in her husband’s arms, looked up into his face. “ Suppose I hadn’t come home, Hugh. What would you have done?” Hugh’s arms tightened around her. “ I don’t know, Luella,” he said slowly. “ I talked it over with Mother, and she said, ‘If you want your wife, you will have to go after her, Hughie boy, and make things up somehow. I have never known a Car­ rington to admit that he or she was wrong.’ ” “ Then it will be a good testimony for a new life, won’t it?” asked Luella happily. “ Testimony! Why, honey, that’s proof!" W ith love and radiance in her eyes, Luella looked down at the little Testament that Bertha had given her. She opened it and turned to a page that was marked. Bending over the Testament, Hugh fol­ lowed the words as Luella read them: “ If any man be in Christ, he is a new crea­ ture: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.”
