CHRISTIAN ENDHAvOR DAY.
Seventeenth Anniversary Of Christian
Endeavor Observed Yesterday

Seventeenth Anniversary Of Christian
EndeavOr observed Yesterday.
February 2, the organization Of Chris
tlan Endeayor will be seventeen years
old, and yesterday appropriate services
were held In the Congregational church
In commemOration OF the event.
In the morning the pastor, Rev. Y. IL.
Allen, spoke to the Endeayorers, FIRST Civ.
ing q few statistics. la 1881 there was
one society, with about forty members;
now there are over City thousand sOcie-
ties with a membership OF over three
millions. In 1881 III was in one country;
now II Ia world wide, such Is the growth
Of Christian EndeayOr In the last seven
teen years. He emphasized the fact that
the Christian EndeayOr society was not
separate but a part of the church. "Don't
be discouraged" he said, 'if we do not
seem TO grow fast enough, but keep right
on trusting in the Master for strength,
and we will surely gain the victory"
In the evening a very unique service
was held, the putting together OF a
Christian EndoayOr locomotive. Each
part OF the locomotive represented
some phase of Christian EndeayOr work,
and as each part was put up some En-
deayOrer made the comparison between
1t and some special work OF the society.
The headlight represented the lookout
committee, n drive wheel the prayer
meeting committee and the other drive
wheels the missionary temperance cOm-
mittee, etc. In this way many helpful
thoughts were brought out along the var
ious lines OF Christian Endeayor work.
Besides this exercise, there were responses
in which the audience took part, and
special music.
The duet by Misses Mabel Milligan and
Lena Bendle was we'll rendered, and
much enjoyed.
The male quartette Of the church also
favored the E%ndeayOrers with a beautiful
selection. On the whole. the meeting
WAS very successful, and the seventeenth
anniversary Of Christian Endeavor will
long be remembered by the Eudeayorers
Of the Congregational church.

THE END.


The dogs are to the foreigner the
worst pest in Turkey. The streets of
Constantinople are given up to the
NANCY, manned, famished droves which
insist upon occupying the best parts of
the pavement and snarl at the feet of
the passers-by. There is a rule that no
one shall kill these miserable creatures,
but, on the other hand, no one ever pets
or cares for them. They are left to
fight among themselves for their pre-
carious existence and, as consequence,
they are generally tailless, with their
ears torn and their coats ragged. Their
only good seems to lie in the fact that
they are useful supplement to the
city's Intellectual scavenger force.-Chi-
