The preacher exhorted his hearers to make this Advent preparation the sin- cere and complete pesance which John the Baptist had enjoined. CHRISTMAS SEAL LETTER READ IN THE CHURCHES in the churches of the eity on Sun- day a letter was read asking the peo. ple to adA substantial contributions to the anti-tuberculosis fund by their purchase of the Christmag geals. There has been a good sale of the seals in the past week but sales will be insuf- ficient to reach the Norwich quota of $3,000 without substantial conmtribu- tions. The following_was the letter: The sale of Red.Cross Christmas Seals during the past week has been sufficiently hroad to 'indicate a wide- spread interest in and sympathy with the purposes for which the Tuhereu- losis Fund Is being raised. The total amount required for Tubereulosis Pre- vention und cure in Norwieh, how- ever, cannot be raised from the sale of seals and enveloves alone. These sales must be supplemented with eaj tributlons® of larger amounts if the work which has been planned for the community is to be accomplished. There zre over 350 tuberculosis ind)- viduals in Norwich today. They need proper treatment not only for their own sake hut also to safeguard the health and lives of their fellow eiti- zens. Will you net add a substan- tial contribution to the ‘aniount whieh you have already given to this work by your purchases of seals, in order that each one of the 350 cases here at present may be brought back to bealth, their families and fellow cit- izens protected, and new cases de- tected and treated promptly, Checks. may be made out to Philip A, John- som, treasurer.

The public copfession came after Mr. Smith's earnest sermon based on Daniel 5-27, “Thou art weighed in the balance and found wanting.” Men- tally wejghing themselves in the bal- ance and finding themseives ag God woyld find them, wanting—these sev- enty-five men and women, some of them very young men and women, ac- cepting the earnest invitation of the eyangelist, went forward, at the cfose of the sermon and while the congrega- tion was singing Where He Leads Me 1 Will Follow, thus publicly announc- ing their detision to leave behind them the old life ang from thengeforth to iead a mew lfe. clean and pure, And they left the church with the fervent prgyer of the evangelist still fresh in their minds and with determination written in their faces. Just before his sermon, one of the most foreeful Mr, Smith has yet de- livered in Nerwich, the evangelist scored the peeple of the city for their lack of support in the present cam- paign: “I have never had less coon- eration from the ehurches in any city ag I have had in this city,” said Gypsy Smith. “Your pastors have stood by me to a man” he continued. “But you have allowed social events te come between you and God. You have allowed God to play second fid dle;. you pave slapped God in the face in His own house. And it hurts. 1 am jealous, jealous for my Master's interests.” The congregation was one of the largest and most representative ti has yet‘gathered at the Central Bap tist church to hear Mr. Smith's ser- mons. People began. to arrive shortly after 7 o'clock and twenty minutes later the church auditorium and gal- fery were filled to overflowing. The folding doors separating the church and the prayer meeting room were thrown open and the prayer meeting room was soon crowded. The nshers were then forced to provide chairs in the Bushnel chapel to accommodate the averflow. The singing was a big featuré of the sepvice. On the platform was o chorus of some hundred voices and in the cholr loft the regular choir. was augmented, Aftér the opening hymns, sung with spirit and enthusiasm, a fervent prayer was offered up by Rev. Arthur ¥ Purkiss, pastor of the Central Bap- tist chure Then the congregation sang with epirit, At the Cross. Thou Art Weighed in the Balance and Found .
