Work of the Local Epworth Leagues.
The work of the local leagues, outside
Of correspondence and finance. is divided
into four departments. That in charge
of the spiritual work arranges for the
regular prayer meetings of the chapter
and all outdoor and cottage services.
The members may also conduct chill
dren's prayer meetings and aid in Sun.
day school and church work. The de-
partment Of mercy and help arranges
for systematic visitation of the mem
beers of the chapter, the sick of the neigh
borhood, the aged and all newcomers.
To the department of literary work Is
intrusted the task of encouraging n
study of the Scriptures and of the doc
trines, polity, history and present actiy-
lity of the Methodist church as wen as
arranging for lectures and literary gath
erings. The department Of social work
has charge OF all entertainments and Is
supposed to sec to the gathering in of
new members.
Working in connection with the Ep-
worth league is the Junior league, which
is intended to be for the children what
the other is for the Young people.
