Political Rally to Be Held In.
der tho Auspices Of tho
Christian Endoavor Union.

The presidential campaign In this state.
at ieast, has been quiet, almost dull. With
Characteristic boldness, the Christian En-
deavor union of Providence has seized
the opportunity to call "a political rally
OF all parties to be held at the Union
Congregational church next Monday at
7;45 p. m.
The theme will be christian Citizen
ship and the speaker Rev. Josiah Strong,
d. D.. president OF the league for social
service. This league. only two years old,
has just received gold medal at the
Paris exposition for it's exhibit illustrat-
ing efforts for social betterment in the
United States; and thus won internation-
al recognition.
DIR. Strong is the author of that re-
markable book. Our Country" and one
OF the ablest speakers on the public plat
form. The enthusiasm of Rhode Island
Endeavorers was recently shown in the
crowded house which greeted Rev. v.Charles
NJ. Sheldon on Oct. 3. Equal interest il
taken in the coming of DIR. Strong. which
has been advertised I'm the Christian En-
deavor societies since last spring.
The Citizenship committees have not
only sent notices and placards TO every
society. but personally visited the larger
number to interest them In the meeting
No more opportune time for such an ad-
dress could be found than the present,
when public attention Is turned To the
responsibilities of citizenship by the pres
idential campaign, and when there is in
evidence such a growing feeling OF indlg-
nation among Christian people at the
non-enforcement OF law and the tolera-
tion OF vice in the city of Providence.
There is therefore every reason to expect
q most enthusiastic rally.
