for the instructive manner in which he
had conducted the lessons. An INTEREST,"
ing fact brought out during the last lesson
was that the number of Protestant chris
tians who are actual communicates has
more than trebled in China during the last
ten years.
An early Christmas morning service was
held by the Christian EndeayorerS of Cal
vary Baptist Church, at which a goodly
number of the young people were present.
The subject was Loves Greatest Gift.
and the meeting was led by Miss Helen
Gilman
Rev Francis E. Clark, the founder of the
Christian Endeavor Society, was to have
left his home at Auburndale, Mass, yes
terday at noon for a trip around the world.
He expects to sail from San Francisco
on the last day of the year. and his itin-
erary includes Hawaii, Samoa, New Zea-
land, Australia, India and other countries.
For some time the Endeavorers ofTAustra-
liza and New Zealand have been making
an effort to have DR. Clark visit them. and
arrangements have at last been made He
is to speak at a number of conventions.
When DR.. Clark's proposed tour was mem
toned at the recent Philadelphia confer
ence Mr.. William Shaw, the treasurer of
the United Society of Christian Endeavor,
took occasion to correct an erroneous state
ment which had gained some currency to
the effect that DR.. Clark'S tours around the
world were made at the expense of the
Christian Endeavorers or the societies. Mr..
Shaw declared that DIR. ClarkS coming
trip would be made, as previous tours had
been. without a cent Of expense to the En-
deavorers. DR.. Clark, he said, earned his
own expenses by writing articles for maya
zines and newspapers, and his regular sal
airy was paid by the publishers OF the
Christian Endeavor World.
Mr.. Shaw compared DR.. Clark to the
Apostle Paul, who worked at his occupa-
ton tentmaker while going about
preaching. so as to relieve the cause from
the burden of supporting him. Readers of
The Star will remember that while DR..
Clark was on his tour of Europe year or
two ago he contributed an article to this
