AND BELIEVINGLY AND PREVAIL­ INGLY. “Watch N ight,” th e last of the old year, is so called because of’ the time- honored custom of “watching and pray­ ing” th e old year out and the new year in. It is the one night in th e year, more probably th an any other night, when God’s people of every ñame and church and land, gather simultaneously in th eir respective places of worship for prayer. In a ll'th e history of th e Church, the need of prayer for spiritual awakening has never been g reater th an now. Not only evangelical leaders, bu t thoughtful laymen and far-seeing political leaders, are becoming more and more alarmed a t the present godless trend.

needed reform s have been successfully instituted. When Mary Morrill went to China, she went w ith the sp irit of revival in her heart. T hat sp irit of revival was communicated 'to Feng, and later through Feng to thousands of other Chfnese. And now th e story is being told th roughout America and all the world, and out of it will come, under God, flaming evangelists and revived pastors and m issionaries. Think what it would mean for God if EVERY ONE of the 200,000 pastors and m issionaries and evangelists of the world were as imbued w ith the spirit of revival as was Mary Morrill and as is today General Feng. Multitudes will be if YOU who read these lines PRAY PERSISTENTLY
