To the Junior Christian Endeayor."
which is a society OF no little power
patterned after the senior organiza-
ton.
Much interest ccntcrs about the
person of DR. Clark. the father OF the
movement. Twenty years ago he was
conducting iu Niliistun church. Of
Portland. Me, a large pastors class
OF boy, and girls. the members OF
which were bound 10 their work by
81 pledge very similar 10 the present
Christian EndcaNor pledge. His wife.
az ihc same time, had charge of
missionary baud of girls-thc Milpah
Circle. The labor OF these earnest
workers stimulated n desire on the
part OF the young persons Of the
church FOR the formation Of a band
or society Of Christian cndcayorcrs.
The society was formed February .,
1851. and the present constitution,
pledge and methods OF work do not
materially vary from those adopted
Ia the pastors study Of the Willis
ton church ON the evening OF that
day. The success OF the enterprise
wa- soon admitted by all. DR.. Clark
wrote an article for the Congrcga-
tiouaii.t. the subject 81 which was:
How One Church Cares for Its
Young People II was something
like thuudcrholt Churches in
other town, woke up and formed
Christian Endcavor societies. At the
end OF % year the first convention
WAS held az Wulston church. The

gathering During this year Or.
Clark wrote % book which hc called
Children and the Church. aud fol-
lowed b. with other books and PAM
phl,ts which helped go spread the
cause. I'm March u, lssi. the first
junior society was formed 10y Rev.
D. ". Cowau, 81 Tabor, Ia. The next
conventions were held respectively at
Lowell. Mass. Old Orchard. Me, and
Saratoga. y. y.
Not long after the united society
had been formed DR.. Clark resigned
his pasioratc and became president
Of the new Organization and editor OF
the -ocirty's new papcr-Thc Golden
Rule lie went 10 England. and
Christian Eudcayor society spraug up
there. About this time was in
ausuutrd the practice Of observing
Christian Eudcavor day the amir
,rrsary OF the society's hirth-and
this day is now houorcd 10y endeay-
orcrs throughout Christendom. At
the seventh annual convention, which
was held in Chicago, there were 5000
delegates In attendance, representing
80 states and territories. Prominent
workers like DR.. Barrows. Bishop
Fallows. DR.. Harper and Miss Frances
T. Willard were seen at this time
upon the platform. Large cities We'd
with each other for the conventions
that followed and the movement be-
came truly mighty one.
When the UNCONVENTIONAL question
arose il was solved by the formation
OF offspring societies such, for cN-
ample. as the Baptist Young Peoples
union and the Methodist organization
Of Epvorth League, each of which is
now thriving organization holding
it's own big annual conventions.
In l,9s DR.. Clark and his family
started ON "a journey around the
world. This was for the purpose Of
establishing new societies and for
inspiring those which had already
been formed. Partly rs a result 81
this and later trips and partly from
the natural growth of the move
mcnt. there are now thriving socie-
ties in Australia, Japan, China, India,
Africa. Turkey. Spain, France,
Sweden. Germany and, in short, in
almost every country except Russia.
Alaska. Mexico. South America, the
Hawaiian islands and many Of the
South Sea islands have Christian En-
deayor societies; there are several
army societies and at least one police
society; and there are organizations
among conNicts.
The United society is n unique or
gauization in that il is little moro
than n bureau Of information. Tn
der the supervision of its officers lit
erature is printed and distributed IL
leyies no taxes nor does il make any
nppeaI 10 local societies for contribu-
tions. All profits derived from the sale
of It's books. badges, cards and other
incidental publications are used i'm eN-
tending the work. II exists simply
for the convenience of the individual
societies and for the PURPOSE or
broadening the scope of the great
work it is doing.

The exploration of the air by means
of balloons carrying Strengthening
instruments is pursued with much
vigor in Europe. On February : there
were simultaneous ascents from
many points, extending from France
to Austria and Russia. One un-
manned balloon near Paris reached
an elevation of 1850 feet, not much
short of eight miles. The tempera-
ture of the air at that height, as
shown by IA self-registering thermom-
eter. was e. degrees below zero,
Fahrcnheit. Another balloon near
Berlin found the same temperature
at an elevation 10000 feet less. These
experiments are expected To throw
much light on the laws of storms and
of atmospheric circulation.
