Special to Times-Republican.
Hampton, Oct. 23.-The program for
the next convention of the Iowa Ep-
worth Leaguers will be held in this city
November 2l-24. The four days will be
packed with good things and the officers
are to be congratulated on the speakers
they have secured.
The league has before 1t number OF
important matters for consideration
among them being the Strengthening of
the league along missionary and gen.
eral eyangelistic lines. The Misses Dur
ham and AicNutt, well known over the
United States as deaconess evangelists,
will be present and conduct evangelist
services.
The league will also have up for con-
sideration another matter which has
caused considerable agitation in the
past. namely, the question as to wheth-
err future conventions Of the league
should be held yearly or every other
year. AT the last state convention
which was held in this city, this subject
was UP for consideration and caused q
sharp parliamentary contest before the
business session Of the league. 1t will
doubtless be disposed of at the next con-
vention.
