At recent meeting of the Wheel

convention sessions will be held next
week, will be tastefully decorated with
these very suggestive colors. The bus
mess men of the city are invited 10
decorate their places of business with
these colors. Wheeling, noted for hos
pitality, will extend a cordial welcome
to the Christian Endeayorers of the
Mountain State who will come to this
annual feast. The local committees
are working hard to make this the
most successful convention ever held
in the State.
Already the entertainment commit
tee has received replies from large
number of delegates throughout the
State, and it is believed that the con-
vention will in every particular be a
success.
In behalf of the city Pastors Union,
DR.. j. l.. Sooy will welcome the En-
deavorers, and Mr.. Remick Truxell,
president of the Wheeling Christian
Endeavor Union, will give the address
of welcome on behalf of the Wheeling
Endeavorers. Rev P. C. White, pas
tor of the Weston Presbyterian church,

come.

and their friends hear DR.. ]. z. Tyler S

Needs of Christian Endeavor." Mr..
Tyler is speaker of national reputa-
ton, and those who fail to hear MIN
will miss a rare treat. He will speak
on Tuesday evening only.
