e ——— STATE BUSINESS BALTS O PRAY Mississippi Olces Have Services Mondays Jackson, Jan, § (P—All state busi- | pess In the old capitol buliding here ceases for one half hour every Mon- day morning while the heads of state departments and clerks engage in prayer. The history of this singular serv- fce goes back to the time the Billy Sunday and Gypsy Smith revival meetings in Jackson brought a wide- spread religious awakening to the community, Miss May Sandlin, pri- vate secretary to W, F. Bond, state superintendent of education, and a zealous church worker in the local Baptist church, was the first to con- ceive the idea. It was approved by Mr. Bond. At firet only the employes of the department of education participate ed, but so popular did the weekly hours of devotion become that all in the old capitol began to come. For a long while the services were con- ducted by various members of the group, and then ministers and re- Iglous leaders in Jackson, outside of | the official family, were invited to peak. And now this half hour from # o'clock to 10:30 ecvery Monday | morning Is et aside for this pur- | pose The meetings are held in one of the long corridors.
