NEW HAMPsHIRE's RECORD.
Good Work Has Been Done i'm the
Last seven Years.

The State Of New Hampshire was or
ganized for Baptist Young Peoples
Union work in 1892, when a state society
was formed, taking into its folds oil So
cetles of young people belonging to Bap-
fist churches Annual meetings have been
held with very interesting services in
connection with the Baptist anniversa-
res. There are eighty-four churches in
the State. and most Of them have the
young people organized for service.
Weekly meetings are held, and the young
members of the churches are being train
ed for usefulness.
Most Of the societies are affiliated with
the Christian Endeavor movement,
though all of them are counted in the
State organization. A few churches nave
the regular Baptist Young Peoples Union
Society. They use the union topics and

its organization-"that the work OF the
young people I'm the State be so framed
that the central aim shan be not self
culture, but the propagation OF the Cos
pei" With this thought in mind various
committees have been chosen through all
sections Of the State. The leaders have
not however. oerlooked the important
necessity Of the educational features or
the Young Peopes Union-viz the
Christian-culture courses. The societies
IN and near Boston are largely Christian
Endeavorers. and have somewhat slowly
affiliated with the national denomina-
tional movement. There is, however. at
the present time a better spirit prevail
ing with reference 10 the matter. under
the kindly words Of Secretary Baer, who
in a public address before the Baptist
ministers meeting, said that it was the
wish OF the United Society OF Christian
Endeayor that all Baptist Christian En-
deey0r societies should affiliate with the
Baptist Union"
