Lecture On Russia
in spite of the threatening weather a fair-sized audience of men gathered in Brooklyn Hall on Tuesday evening to hear Rev. J. F. Hecker deliver his lecture on "The Real Russia." It was an intellectual treat and all who heard it were more than repaid for any sacrifice they ma^ have made to be present.
In   his   lecture Rev. Hecker showed
