The services were held from 11 to 12 in the morning, and from 7 t0 8 in the evening. Many of the students yielded their lives to Christ, and joined the church. At the Close only three or four Of the whole student body had failed to be- come Christians. Rev. Harris is a wise leader, his sermons were powerful, and the results were all that could be asked. Services have been conducted Sunday evening of every week at a school house at the forks Of the Walla Walla' river.
