Despite the fact that the announce- ment has been made that the building will be torn down, there was much "discussion last night among the attendants at the special healing service regarding the formation of a Evangelistic Association" to take fover the building and conduct -religious services there, with different evangelists, throughout the year. A leader In this movement, which may brought to a head tomorrow, said that this section "needs such a building for religious gatherings of all kinds, and Allentown, Bethlehem and Easton could make It a real religious center for the state at large." 2 A hitch In the plans for selling the building occurred yesterday following jthe return of Edward, Fraser, business manager of the party, from Philadelphia where he was arranging for a great campaign to be conducted by Mr. Bosworth this summer during the Sesqul. If the difficulty cannot be obviated.

It Is believed that the association will be formed on Sunday afternoon. This move, however, will not In any way Interfere with Mr. Bos-worth's plans for the summer, and the tabernacle campaign will, of course, be closed here at the time set In lease for the ground. The best week-mght's crowd gathered last night at the West Broad street building to hear Mr. Bosworth preach on the subject: "The Lifting Up of the Brazen Serpent." It was f'speclal healing night" and hundreds of those in attendance, who have attended almost all of the meetings since the beginning of the campaign, remarked that Mr.

Bosworth seemed to be endowed- with more physical and spiritual power than at any time Bince the meetings began. 4 The remarkable record of a man who only a few years ago was doomed by physicians to an early death from lung trouble to keep up preaching every night and twice on Sunday for eleven weeks without a let up, and spending hours each night standing on his feet praying for the sick, was remarked on all sides. His physical onrtiiranrA never seems to have waned and he himself remarked last tvmt ha "could keen on like this all summer because the spiritual interest in-the meetings is so great." The number answering the altar r-tn tnr solvation runs into the hun dreds every night, and the "aisle of faith" is crowded with HTr. V. F.

Another change in the bill would fix the maximum price to be paid for the surplus of products classed as basic commodities.
