Preparations are being made at

In Thessalonica, Bulgaria, where
Paul established the second Christian
church in Europe, there is a flourish
ing Christian Endeavor society OF
twenty members, whose meetings
never drag for want of participa-
tion.
There have been large additions OF
late to the ranks of the Christian
Endeavor hosts in many of the States.
Massachusetts, has added twenty
nine societies to her roll within few
weeks, New York as many more,
Pennsylvania about the same num-
Der. while many other States in pro-
portion to the population have done
equally well. In England, twenty
eight societies were enrolled in one
week in February The effort to in
crease the number of societies by at
lease one-tenth is very generally
adopted throughout the Union. Some
individual societies have already ad-
ded more than one hundred per cent
to their numbers. A general revival
of Christian Endeavor work. is report
