Ontario

By M. J. Allen

Toronto.—For over forty-five evenings we held tent meetings in this city during the past summer. We were well located on a prominent street, and the attendance was good from the beginning, increasing steadily till the closing meeting. A number of ministers attended, took notes on the Sabbath question; and paid strict attention to our views on religious liberty and temperance. As the result of our effort, twelve have definitely taken their stand for the truth, and I expect to baptize a few others soon.

We have started Sunday night meetings in one of the most popular halls in the city. Each service will cost us nearly thirty dollars. So far our attendance has run between six hundred and seven hundred. This is very encouraging, and we hope for a steady increase in numbers and interest.

I recently visited Brantford, where we held a tent effort last year. There I had the privilege of baptizing eight new believers, which makes forty added to that church in one year. We praise the Lord for all his goodness.
