THE two causes which are credited
with awakening the German people to
the necessity of the temperance reform
are, first. the conviction that beer drink
ing is weakening the moral and physical
qualities of the nation; and second. the
necessity of turning the beer material
into bread. Statistics show that Ger

productive energy to the liquor traffic
and that the demand for bread can

Twelve. years ago Feb. ?. quietly and
without o%stentation, was born the first
society of Christian Endeavor. Twelve
years have nearly passed, and there is
scarcely a land on the globe that has not
such societies, and there is scarcely a
language Of a civilized nation into which
the constitution has not been translated.
God has multiplied the seed sown until
now we have 1,400, 900 fellow members
in over q, 1000 societies, and never was
the outlook so bright for Christian En-
deavor as it is today. The only feeling
that should animate our hearts is one of
devout gratitude to Almighty God. There
is no room for self con~gratulation or for
boasting. All that can be said is with
deep humility to exclaim, This is the
Lords doing"
Williston church, Portland, Me-, the
birthplace of Christian Endeavor, had
been organized three years when DR..
Clark accepted its passionate. The church
was the outgrowth of a mission Sunday
school and a branch of the State Street
Congregational church of Portland. Rev.
Burke f.. Leavitt, recently of the Lincoln
Park church, Chicago, was its first pas
tor. Its present pastor is Rev. Dwight
M. Pratt. author of "A Decade of Chris
tian Endeayor."
The Christian Endeavor society was
organized in the parsonage of Williston
church. For four years previous to this
date Mrs. Clark had gathered about her
a band of boys and girls for Christian
nurture and work. This band was called
the Mizpah circle, and from this circle
came many of the original members of
the first Christian Endeavor society. As
Mr.. Pratt says, "Mizpah was the bud:
Christian Endeavor the blossom" Most
truly has DR.. Clark said that Mrs. Clark
rocked the cradle in which the society
was born.
At the meeting in the parsonage DIR.
Clark read the constitution to those pres
ent, explained the pledge, and % signed
as active members and six as associate
members. Mr.. w. II. Pennell. now of
Boston and one of the trustees of the
United society, was the first to sign the
pledge and constitution. F!

if the Christians in England and

not fear the ultimate issue. European
nations are more guilty to-day than
they were half a century ago, for it has
now been demonstrated that to intro

fhIrs iur Liquor.
In a Washington grocery, on a recent
Sunday morning. a white man, a driver
of a milk wagon. had with him a gallon
of whisky which had been given him as
a present. The driver of the milk
wagon furnished a gallon of milk, and
a bowl of eggnog was made. Among
those present who partook of the drink
was a colored man. After drinking
freely for a time, there began a wager,
twenty-five cents a side, that the col
ored man could not drink another glass
of eggnoc The betting was kept up,
and the colored mar continued to drink,
with a goblet holding about half a pint
Finally. he said he could drink a dozen
more glasses, and had drank four. when
suddenly he toppled over in a drunken
stupor. He was laid out in the cellar
to sober up, and when found later by
his wife. who had instituted a search
for him, he was beyond the reach of
medical assistance, and died soon after.
The physician summoned in the case
said that there was no doubt that alco-
hol caused his death. The excessive
drinking of the milk alone might have
made him temporarily sick, but the al
cohol ingredient made the sickness IA

should be made a criminal offense on
