Our terrible roads are growing
worse every day. It has become use
less to try TO navigate them in light

breaking away from culverts, thus
leaving them almost impossible. The
mud ranges from one to three feet,
and resembles what the boys used to

would be unwise for an ant to try to

farmers would devote more attention
to the raising of stock and less to the
raising of grain, they would find in
the course of few years that they had

at the willlston Church. OF this con-
vention Mr.. Pencil was made president
and Mr.. Stevenson secretary.
After another year. on June Z, 1888, IN
the Second Parish Church of Portland, the
second annual convention was held. By
this time the societies had grown TO fifty
three, with an enrolled membership of
$3.50. Forty-one of these were in New
England. five in New York, and the rest
scattered throughout the West as far as
California.
During this year DR.. Clark Wrote the
first Christian Endeavor book, children
and the Church, " which, with the volumes
that soon followed it, Young Peoples
Prayer Meetings" and Ways aud Means"
together with a long series Of pamphlets
and leaflets, has been one of the prime
factors in the spread of the movement.
Early the next year. March q. 1884 the
Christian Endeavor cause took another
step in advance with the formation of the
first Junior society, organized by Rev. j.
w. Cowan of Tabor, Ia.
The third national convention was not
held until Oct. %, 1884. 1t met this time
at Lowell, Mass, in a two-days' session;
15l societies were reported, with 6,4l4
members. Nov. IS, 1885, the first state
union, that of Connecticut, was formed.
The convention of 1885 was the first TO
Dc n6iu on tnG CHRISTIAN EIuSaNOi uatCSs
July and 10. This was at Old Orchard,
the famous seaside resort in Maine. At
this convention the United Society of
Christian Endeavor was founded and in
corporated. Hon. w. ]. Van Patten be-
came president, in place of Mr.. Penneh,
and soon afterward the second general
secretary, Mr.. now Rev. George NJ Ward,
was appointed.
This convention is notable also for the
advent of Rev. II. B. Grose, Rev. r. w.
Brokaw, and Rev. Nehemiah Boynton, d.
D.. who afterward became most jealous
workers on the board of trustees. To this
convention, also, came the news that the
movement had reached foreign countries,
and societies were reported from China, the
Hawaiian Islands, and other distant re-
gions. By this time the movement had
formed 25S societies, with 1882 members.
The first local union-that of New Haven,
CONN., organized Jan. II, 1886.

CHRISTIAN ENDEAvOR's HISTORY
Society Now Numbers Over 5000, 600
Members.

Society Now Numbers Over 100000
Members.
The story of the Christian Endeavor
movement is rapidly becoming a familiar
one, and yet it has a romantic interest
that time can never render commonplace.
The society originated in a revival in the
winter of 1SS0-S1, in the Williston Church
of Portland, Me. There had been for some
years much earnest work in that church
with the young people. Rev. Francis E.
Clark, the pastor, had been conducting a
large pastors class of boys and girls,
whose members were bound to their work
by a pledge very similar to the present
Christian Endeavor pledge.
A girls missionary band, the Mizpah
Circle. had been conducted by the wife
of the pastor: and so, when it seemed ne
cessary to introduce new methods in order
10 set TO work the enthusiastic young con-
yerts made by the revival, the soil was all
ready for the planting.
Feb 2, 1881 the first Young Peoples So
cietv of Christian Endeavor was formed in
Rev. Mr. Clarks study, with essentially
the present constitution, pledge, and meth
DDS of work. The first signer, w. H. Pen
nell. afterwards became the first president
of the United Society, and Is now one of
its trustees. The leader of the first meet
ing. has son. Mr.. H. 3. Pencil, led one
of the famous prayer meetings at the
New York convention. The first president
of the society, Mr.. Granville Staples, has
since been active in the Christian En-
deavor movement.
So successful was the society in the Will
hat mr. uvoc la1s 10

work for young people. His article How

nublished in August 1881, In The Congre-
aationalist and a similar article publish
81 later in the Sunday School Times, Great.
cd widespread interest and like societies
began to multiply.
In October, 1881, the second Christian
Endeavor society was formed by Rev. G.
p Minis. Of Newburyport, Mass. Before
the end of the year four more societies
were formed. one each in Rhode Island.
Ne Vermont and Ohio. One Of the ear
uast societies was formed by another Port

Travellers Christian Endeavor Union of
America was organized.
One of the first to be developed of Chris
tlan Endeavor specialties, and one cf the
most important of ALL was work among
the sailors, whose wandering life and
many hardships make religious services
and counsel both necessary and welcome.
The first Floating Society of Christian
Endeavor was formed on the United States
revenue cutter Dexter, in April, 1895
Along the Pacific coast the Eudeavorers
have taken the greatest interest in tho
Chinese, All of the Chinese churches on
the coast are said TO have Christian En-
deavor societies. These Chinese Endeav-
Orers are received with great heartiness in
the California Christian Endeavor conven-
tons, and the Endeavorers have taken
much interest in their welfare. In the in
terror states. also, and in Canada much
work is done among the Chinese and Jap
anese. In different localities Christian
Endeavor has gained a foothold among
The Bohemians, the Italians, the French,
the Greeks and the Spanish Mexicans.
Christian Endeavor has taken root as
well, among the North American Indians
Aside from the Alaskan societies. of which
mention has already been made probably
the most northerly societies on the Ameri-
can continent are found among the Cree
Indians in the Northwest Territory.
In Oklahoma are some Indian Endeav-
orers, but the large number of them are
TO be found in Nebraska and Dakota.
The latest reports of the work of the
movement show II to be increasing rapidly
in every quarter OF the world There arc
enrolled altogether 5517 societies, with a
membership of over 100000.
