SCOviXilE MISSION CONCLUDES.
The ScoviUe Mission, which, has .:x
tended over five weeks, was brought lo
<a successful conclusion at the Exhibition
Building last evening. The. ministers of
the various Chinches of Christ occu
pied seats oh the platform, and each
testified to the good work accomplished
during th« progress of the mission. The
musical portion of the programme was
under the direction of Mr. C. E. Marty.
In response to a request that those in
the audience who had benefited as a re
sult of the gatherings should stand up.
practically the whole of the large audi
ence rose.
Takng as his test, "And the books will
be opened and the doors shut," Mat
thew 5, 10, and Revelations 20, 12, Dr.
Scoville delivered a characteristically
pointed address. He thanked all who
haH assisted to make the mission a suc
cess, and declared that he had not sesn
such unanimity amongst preachers in
any part of Australia as existed in Ade
laide. The speaker endeavored, by
means of pointed Gospel truths and
stories from real life, to induce h>s
hearers to get prepared for the world to
come. Cp to the meeting that evening
the number of converts had bee^ <324.
At the conclusion of the address a num
ber of persons signified their intention
of joining the church. Dr. and Mrs.
Scoville and members of the party weM

the churches and the committee.
