We were made heartily welcome by Will liam A. Gilbert, ex-president of the Bethel EpwOrth League, who said he grew up to be an Epworth Leaguer. The response by William E. Stone was full of gratitude to the different Leagues for the interest shown and help given by the pastors in charge, and the Bethel League especially He also gave some idea of what the other districts are doing but as our district is situated entirely different we could not initiate but would have to plan for ourselves and he gave an outline of what was considered advisable. The solo by Miss Edith French was en- joyed by all. When Rev William 1. Reed took the platform there was something doing and after telling the story of David and his sling in a sim pie yet forcible manner he proceeded to tell us how to use the things we had and were familiar with in our
 
 pastors and wives. with the vice preSi- dent, were then invited in the parSOn- age to partake of the viands provided by Mrs Steihler, which was very pleasing and satisfying part of the pro- gram. It would not do to leave out the fact that the other delegates fared as we'll in the basement of the church. At 30 p. m., Rev A. J. Smith of Dan- bury gave impetus to the afternoon session by leading the singing, Bible reading and prayer. Reports from and during the business session d ris- ing vote of gratitude was given the Bethel League for their kindness and loyalty. William K.

The New Milford League eX- tended an invitation to hold the next convention at their church, which was accepted and will be held some time in the spring, afternoon and evening Ses- sion. A solo was then rendered by Mrs John Nichols, which was enjoyed. The address by Rev F. D. Torrey of New Milford made us feel our respon- sibility keener and wanted us to have to obey what God what God expects and have sufficient motive of the right kind to back up our lives. Rev J. F. Adams, presiding elder, made us feel proud to be Epworth Leaguers, glad we were members of the Methodist church, but best of all that we were Christians, The duet by Mrs J. L.. Nichols and Mrs H. Crofut was appre- ciated. After short song service and recess Brother c. 1. Hubbard of Cannon gave the children one of his heart sermons, which was one of the best things of the convention, and judging by the attention given and by the way 20 or more children showed a desire to have Christ in their hearts when Brother H. e. Judd gave the in- vitation during the consecration ser vice 1t was not without results, and all went home feeling greater desire to see the work prosper and to think of the good time awaiting them next spring when they meet at New Mil ford. Over 100 delegates were present and about 40 children.

EXPECT BIG TRADE

Wholesalers Of Staple Lines Look For-
ward to Exceptionally Large Trade
For the Holidays-Business is Good
Some Staples High in Price and
Others Cheap.
Wholesalers of staple articles are
making more than ordinary prepara-
tons at present to supply retailers
preparatory to satisfying a large de-
smand during the holiday season, and
this is pretty sure indication that
ceptionally large. The trade condi-
lions are studied by wholesalers very
closely, and are talked over at length
at occasional meetings of the different
associations. which bring together the
jobbers of the different Iowa localities.
The crop conditions this fall are
taken into consideration, and with
good crops people generally are going
to have money. II they have money
they are going to spend portion of
it. One Of the best indications so far
in the local wholesale jobbing circles
is the demand for pipes; as usual
thing men do with their old pipes I'M
less money is easy. The Let's, Fletcher
Company has disposed of more pipes
since September 1 this year than it
did from September to February last
year. In fact it has been hard mat
ter to keep the trade supplied.
Sugar is going to be cheap this win
ter, from all present indications, and
canned corn will be very reasonable.
Dried fruits of all kinds will be high,
and canned tomatoes high, tomatoes
having been a poor crop this year. APP
pies are rapidly soaring upward, and
cranberries will advance 81 per bar
rel next. week. Apples will be a lux
ury this winter that only the well-to-
do can afford. Good varieties for eat
ing will cost the consumer as high as
IS barrel, and perhaps more. At any
rate they will be so high that in homes
where the children have been in the
habit Of going to the cellar and help
ing themselves, the indulgent mother
will be compelled to keep the lid on"
and deal them out in smaller quanti-
ties.
The Christmas candy trade is already
being prepared for by the jobbers, and
statesmen are being furnished with
samples. A large candy trade for the
holidays is anticipated.
