CHRISTIAN ENDEAVOR.

The Cleveland convention OF the
societies of Christian Endeavor spoke
out strongly on the Prohibition ques-
ton.
DIR. Clark, the founder and presl-
dent, struck the keynote in his letter.
He said
"Christian Endcavor stands for thu
election of good men. for the enact
mcnt of good laws, for sturdy an''
steady opposition to the saloon, the
gambling hell, the lottery, and the
violation of the Sabbath"
John G. Woolley, Miss Willard. and
others made stirring Prohibition add
rcsscs, and the convention unanimous
ly capped the climax in the following
declaration:
Resolved, That VIC recognize the
sale and use of Intoxicating liquors rs
the greatest evil of the times and the
chef enemy Of the social, moral, anu
spiritual well-bcing Of man; and We
hold ourselves pledged as Christian
Endcavors to seek the overthrow OF
this evil at all times in every Lawful
way
There are now over - 900 Christian
