Religious Work. Although for many years the -as- sociation has not conducted a large Sunday meeting for men, the time seemed opportune to try a Sunday service of a more elaborate nature than we have been holding in the so- cial rooms. The first of a such meetings was held the gymnasium, when David L. Fultz, head of the Baseball Players’ Fra- ternity, gave a splendid evangelistic address to about 200 yvoung men. The attendancg at the Bible classes is just about double that of last year. At the fellowship suppers, preceding the class sessions, the pastere of the city are giving a series of talks. Rev. Warren F. Cook is giving an excep- tionally strong series of addresses during this month, and these will be followed by another series by Henry W. Maier.
