M.n-m-m-m-wuff! Nobody stopped singing. His actions seemingly did not attract any attention, Soon he recov ered, but a strange glitter came into his eyes, and he took up the song again. They sang another verse, switched into still another song, and, urged on by the leader, who by this time was completely carried away by his own ex- hortations, began to shrill, all at the same time, in different tones and different tongues.

Then her childish voice choked, and she continued at the urgings of one of the leaders. “And—and I aaw a big black ladder going right down into the earth and people were going down it.” Down in front of the platform the shouts and walls grew to a fever pitch. Women moaned and wept and here and there a child knelt crying. I watched the scene for nearly an hour, before hunting up someone who could tell me what it was about. A woman brought one of the leaders from the plat form. He was Wm. H. Offier He said he had been a plumber, had heard the “call” and given up plumbing. This is what he told me Back to the Primitive “We think this is the only way, The churches don’t go far enough. We go back to primi tive religion.
