THE DAILY BRITISH WHIG, MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 11, 1916, THE CONEY ISLAND MISSION ROBERTS - HORSFIELD | TOLD OF WORK SUPT. , Cited Cases of Three Men Who w ere Redeemed and Ave Now Leading | Noble. Lives -- Praised Work Y.| M. C.\ A: Is Doing At Barriefield. Rev. C. Roberts-Horsfield, Sup-] erintendent of the Coney-Island Mis- | sion, with which .he has been con- nected for fifteen veéars, gave a fas- cinating address in Brock Street Methodist Church Sunday morning. Mr. Horsfield is a graphic, witty speaker and has the happy faculty of | into close grips | | being able to get | with his auditors. ° He has been at { Barriefield camp for the i days, helping the Y.M.C.A. with its/| | work among the soldiers. | pects to remain until when he will leave for Alexandria! | Bay, where he will conduct a series | of meetings. | In his address Sunday morning he spoke highly of the work that the Y.M.C.A. was doing at Barriefield.! He told of a conversion in a Kingston | | shoe shine parlor. A young soldier, inow gone to Petawawa, was-ded to] | decide there for Christ as a result of the preaching "he had 'heard in the | Y.M.C.A. tent at Barriefield The | Y.M.C.A. was bringing men to the| Saviour, and deserved 'the hearty support of the people of Kingston. . In introducing the speaker, the pas- | [tor, Rev.\G. 8. Clendinnen, said he | hoped that since he has been at Bar- riefield Camp, he-would feel at home in the presence of the Union Jack, many of which were displayed about | |the church. The visitor said he felt] {at home all right, as he was born {under the Union Jack, and was glad |to be able to give a message beneath | its folds. Continuing, he said he] came tothe I'nited States from Eng- land thirty years ago, and he had learned to love America, just as he | would learn to love any country am- |ong whose people he labored | 'He was about to start on a holi-| | day, when he received afi invitation {to come here and labor in the Mas-| |ter's Vineyard. He appreciated the] | invitation to the ine city of | | ingston. Work at Coney Island. Passing on to speak of his work at | Coney Island, he said that the op-| i portunities were unlimited. From | 300,000 to 400,000 pleasure. seekers | He ex-| | come to Coney Island every {end during the summer. The Mis-| sion held religious meetings every | , day from 5 to 7 p.m. and these were | attended by from 1,000 to 3,000 peo-! ple. The preacher told of men- who, | through the instrumentality of the | Mission, had been lifted from the Gutter, and hy the power of the Gos- pel, made respectable and Boil tive citizens. ' One man who was sav-| ed from the depths became a writer | of sacred verse, a splendid sample of | which was read to the congregation. | Another man, who said that he would | give his right arm to be relivered from drink, which had divorced him | from his charming wife and three} dear little children, was freed with-| uot having to sacrifice so much as a| finger nail, and now held a responsi-| ble position with a Detroit real es-| tate firm. After this conversion he| organized a church near New York in which his eldest daughter was or-| ganist. | The speaker told of a well- to- do| New Yorker, who came to Comey Is-| land to see a leg show, after telling] his wife he was going elsewhere on| business, This man became convgrt- ed, and was now Paying half the sal- | ary of one of the Mission workers. | In conclusion the Coney Island | Missioner urged all to become ser-| vants of Jesus. Christ whose gospel] was able to save to the uijermost. --_ Git os i AHH bb + NO WORD YET + Though thousands of people * are anxiously waiting for infor- # mation about the new registra- tion plans and the authorization : > is *| +) +* *| yet been announced.
