RELIGIOUS REVIVAL
ROUSES UNEASY CONSCIENCE PRACTICAL RESULTS IN BELFAST. '.UNITID PRESS ASSOCIATION.—COPIRIBHT.) (AUSTRALIAN • NEW ZEALAND CABLE ASSOCIATION.) LONDON, 21st February. There has been an extraordinary religious revival in Belfast owing to Pastor Nicholson. Hundreds of dungaree-clad men with grimy faces and hands, from the shipyards, march nightly singing hymns to Pastor Nicholson's services. As a result of the revival many employers are receiving back stolen goods and tools borrowed from the shipyards are being returned, and shopkeepers are being paid accounts which have been outstanding for years. Ex-soldiers and sailors are refusing disablement grants on the ground that they have now been restored to health. There is also a marked absence of swearing in the yards.
