----------
WALDRON  BAPTIST  CHURCH  HAS  SPIRITED  REVIVAL.
----------
          The revival meetings which have been in progress at the Waldron Baptist church for the past ten days are now at their height.  Almost a score are said to have united with the church, while many others are seriously considering the step, which, if taken, they will never regret.
          Music for the services is being furnished by a large chorus choir and an orchestra composed of the members of the church.  This is a feature of the meetings.  The church has been filled at every service and Sunday many people who desired to attend were turned away, as every foot of space was filled.  These services are in charge of the pastor, the  Rev. S. G. Huntington, assisted by  Evangelist L. V. P. Williams, of Franklin.
          The meetings will continue throughout next week as the people are showing much interest.

          The Baptist church at Waldron, organized at an early day, went down prior to 1885, but was reorganized and is now a prosperous church owning its own edifice.
