EVANGELISTIC DEPARTMENT (Continued from page 265) In connection w ith the work being done among th e employees of th e Union Pacific, th e w riter recently ar ranged for a concert by th e In stitu te Men’s Glee Club for th e members of the Union Pacific Masonic Club a t the Alexandria Hotel, a t which tim e four hundred members w ith th e ir fam ilies and friends were present. A le tte r has been received from the P resident of th e Club, expressing th e ir apprecia tion, in which he says: “We are g reat ly indebted to Mr. Reynolds, Shop Superintendent of the Bible In stitu te, and to Mr. Trowbridge, who was kind enough to offer th e services of the Glee Club. Also to Mrs. Reynolds and n er little son and daughter, who rend ered a few vocal selections, and sev eral numbers on th e Saxaphone. Every one present enjoyed the concert to the fullest extent, and it is hoped we may again have th e pleasure of hearing them in the n ear fu tu re .” WORK AMONG THE JEWS Jam es A. V aus, Supt.— Bible C lasses an d P e r sonal W ork, S treet M eetings an d Sem i-m onthly M ass M eetings for Jew s of Los A ngeles. HE door bell of our home rang one evening, and when we responded to the. sum mons we found huddled to gether, ju st outside the door, a whole Jew ish family, consisting of a husband, wife, and two children, and the w ife’s mother and h er son. A fter some general conversation we learned th a t the w ife’s mother was a Hebrew -Christian, haying accepted Christ as h er Messiah several years previously. The husband, though tol eran t of Christianity, was somewhat skeptical and indifferent. The wife, though outw ardly quite resen tfu l of any discussion of Chris tianity, seemed to impress us as more interested th a n she cared to adm it. H er m o ther’s conversion had evidently made a profound impression upon her, and though rebellious tow ard God by reason of th eir poor circum stances in life, yet we felt hopeful of really influ encing her to follow her m other’s example. The husband and the moth er-in-law have attended one of our Jewish meetings, which they both seemed to enjoy. L ater the wife was taken ill and had to go to a hospital. While she was th ere our workers called on her re peatedly, and a few days ago, to our g reat joy, she confessed Jesus Christ as h er Saviour. We are now concentrating in prayer for th e conversion of th e husband, and in th is we ask our read ers to join. SEAMEN’S DEPARTMENT Claude H .
