Hospitable Expressions at

Speakers From Home and Abroad
Assist in the Convention'S
Opening Exercises.

Owing undoubtedly to the greater dis.
tance OF Woodward's Pavilion the attend
ance there yesterday morning was not as
great as at the Mechanics Pavilion. At
the hour announced for the beginning OF
the serv ces the Endeavorors had scarcely
begun 10 arrive. Despite this, however,
the days exercises began promptly on
time But in order that the later arrivals
might miss nothing of the regular pro-
ceedings a half hour was spent in song
service. By this time the large edifice
was we'll flied.
a few minutes after the opening hour a
diversion was created By fair-szed dele
CATION of Chinese, who came marching
into the auditorium.
In the course of the morning q mum Der
of birds had gained access through the
open windows and their presence was
prettily referred to BIZ Mayor Phelan
while delivering the address of welcome
on behalf of San Francisco. He was
speaking of the work of the local commit
tee. His tribute to the blithesoms wa-blers
was as follows:
THE com mittee have provided every
thing, so far as | see within the range of
nv eyes, except possibly the singing
birds. Perhaps many OF you thou sht il
was a provision made for your pleasure
bv the committee, but / beg to assure YOU
that these California birds, taking their
enthusiasm from the movement of our
people toward you, arc volunteers"
Hearty applause greeted the expression
Of this sentiment.
throughout the exercises the feathered
visitors kept up merry chirping chorus,
which, however, was not at all disturbing
they lowered in the palms and draper
les which were swinging in midair. The
mass OF the audience were members OF
the Christian Endeavor societies, as was
indicated by their blue and gold badges,
but there were also many who were not
q ffiIiated with the organization.
There were two occasions when the eE-
thusiasm rose to more than the usual
height. One of these was when the
we'll wishing telegram of President Nc
Kinlev was read by Professor Crosse, the
chairman OF the meeting. Hardly had he
concluded its reading when there was

Rev. Howard II. Russell, LID, of CO.
lum bus, Ohio, in an address on the sub
ject of Christian Endeavor vs. The Sa-
LOOM brought ont the parallel between
the great revolutionary movements of the
world and Inc present movement against
the liquor traffic, and he believed that in
the twentieth century even the liquor
dealers would applaud the triumphs of
Christian Endeavor against the saloon.
He outlined the work and methods of
the Anti iSa1Oon League and showed how
the laws shou be enforced by Christian
EnGeaYor. His address was received with
great applause, as he seemed to strike a
responsive chord in the great audience.

Rev. Cortland Meyers of Brooklyn,
n. Y. di- cussed "Christian Endeavor and
Civic Righteousness" in a short address
that reused more enthusiasm than any
address OF The day. He held up in strong
light those who shirked The duty of sui
frage and held him as traitor who re-
mained away from the polls. He called
for com bined effort on the part of the
Endeavorers to drive demagogues from
politics. and asked that the motto of every
American should be Am erica for Christ

DR.. Patterson responded as follows:

rather take this banner from 10 Ireland thau
Scotland for Caledonia was in Ireland before
she was in Scotland. Scotland has stood by
Ireland in the days gone by, and Ireland h as
STOOD by Scotland, so l am glad 10 take this

the people there still have the idea
that the revenue from these dives will
eventually make everybody rich, but
instead the city is being run in debt
deeper every day and the town is be-
ing demoralized. Take a look at
Wichita and then hide your face in
shame when you tell your wife and
children that revenue" from joints,
dives and houses OfprOstitutiOn IS what
furnishes the nucleus around which to
build a prosperous and beautiful town
or city-or around which to establish
pure and elevating society and code
of morals for your children to be in
1uenced by. And yet, Wichita
wants state normal. Yegods! Who
would want to send their children to
such town and surround them with
the influences of such a place? The
people of the surrounding country
would like to point to Wichita with
pride, for they know it ought to be
the cleanest and prettiest city in Kan.
SaS, but they cannot doit while that
town is in its present condition.

A ROYAL Entertainment.

The social and entertainment given
by the Royal Neighburs 10 the X. Of
?. hall Monday night was royal en-
tertainment indeed. There was lack
of fOrmality about the affair that
made the evening an enjoyable one to
every person present. The Royal
NeighbOrS and their friends gathered
at the hall to have good social time,
and they had it for nearly four hours.
1t was II o'clock before they began to
leave for their homes.
The program opened with a song by
the ladies Of the lodge. W. NJ. Ready
then delivered short address appro-
pirate to the occasion, bidding the
NeighbOrS and their friends welcome.
He was followed by Mrs. W. H.
Maddy, who read an original poem,
which called for many complimentary
remarks. Mrs. Maddy is quite a
writer of verse. She has written
m my poems that have gained wide
publication. Her recital last night
was recent composition of surpas-
sing merit. Little Marie DeYOe
brought down the house." so to
speak, with her vocal rendition of the
happy southern melody, Mammals
Little Alabama Coon" Misses Edith
and Nellie Ratliffe and Maggie Tay-
lor then favored the guests with a
mandolin and guitar trio, after which
Miss Pearl AldriCh delivered her
charming evolutionary selection,
1.-THE Confessional" The degree
staff of the Royal NeighbOrs lodge
then gave an exhibition drill. Miss
Nellie Ratliffe next favored the audi
ence Win a superb vocal solo, and
Miss Bessie BOokwalter recited "Our
Hired Girl" Claude Whitfield then
rendered whistling solo, "Mocking
Bird" and the degree staff of the
Woodmen lodge gave an exhibition
drill in fOresters' attire.
Then came the supper, which was
the most delightful part of the pro-
gram. The ladies served the guests
with coffee, cake, and other delicacies
and the guests partook of the same
from their laps. Everyone enjoyed
the supper immensely. The floor was
afterward cleared and values and the
old Virginia reel were danced until
late in the night, when the party left
for thei- homes, heartily thankful for
the enjOyments Of the evening.
