lected. Rev. Boswell has been In COM
munication with clergyncn and lay
men throughout the state concerning
the matter and the greatest interest
is manifested at all points.
In Speaking about the convention.
Rev. G. A. Boswell said There are
several Methodist conferences in
Pennsylvania. and about 125,0O0
church members. Their, have arisen
various questions affecting the inter-
ests of the church in this state. and It
has been suggested that free and full
discussion of these will be profitable
to the church. 1t is not intended to
touch upon matters affecting the
church in other states. We cannot am
nounce any of the details at present,
but the committee will shortly hold n
series of meetings to discuss the plans.
When these are determined they Will
be submitted to the various church
organizations throughout the state
Sometimes q work goes on in distant
rarts of the city and little Is known Of
it by those who support it. And less
by the general public until an appeal
comes for larger means to carry on
larger work. The work of the Young
Women's Christian association is be-
ing carried on not only in the Central
City but on the South Side. in Hyde
Park and Providence. To those who
ask what is being accomplished We
would suggest that trip to the South
side on some of the club nights or On
some of the Junior days would answer
,s,,.r l,n
atty club. of the South Side, enter
tanned the T. +. C. club of the Hyde
Park branch. The rooms were prettily
decorated and the Loyalty club was
seated and singing when the T. r. L.
club entered. The club songs and calls
were given in q way that showed the
greeting to lie most cordial. The
president of the Loyalty club, Miss
Barbara Gebhart, presided. and mu.
sical and literary programme was rem
6ered. After the programme Mrs.
Ripple, the president OF the associa-
tion, was called upon for remarks and
the girls gave her the Chautauqua sa-
Lutte Her remarks were full OF on
couragement and appreciation. Th's
work for young girls is the most sat
isfactory work done in the association
but it has grown to ruch an extent
that larger quarters are needed 10
carry it on. Miss VanNort and Miss
Wilcox have the clubs in charge. and
much credit is due for able manage
ment.
