“WHERE TO GO SATURDAY NIGHT Cullercoats, St. George's. - 'Well Jack, where are you going too? 'Why, to the Church Army Concert Bill, to be sure. They call them Pleasant Saturday Evenings.' 'Well, do they have them every Saturday night!' 'Why, yes, they have a concert one week and a Lantern Lecture the next, and I can tell you we get a good pennyworth. We commence with some good hearty singing and some of them play musical instruments and we get a good hour-and-halfs amusement for one penny. 'Well, that's cheap enough to be sure and I would like to go with you, can I come Jack' 'Why yes, of course, the more, the merrier.' And so Bill and Jack are found at the church Army P. S. E. and we have now an average attendance from 100 to 150. And since these startedour MIssion has been for many weeks self-supporting, and also through these men and women have been led to come to the Mission Services, where God's word is preached , and we know that God will in due time give the increase. For Capt. Hawley.”
