ENDEAvoR CONVENTION.
Series of Great Meetings Promis-
ed Corvallis.

Word was received last M on-
day from State President Rock
wood, of Portland, that the bl-
ennial State Christian Eudeavor
convention which was to have
been held in Eugene next week,
could not be held there on account
of so many cases of typhoid fever.
He a>k-d if it would be possible
for Corvallis to have it held here.
A meeting of the exc utive COM
miitee of the Federation OF Chris
tan Endeavor was called tor
MONDAY night at which time 1t
was decided to invite the con-
yention to this city. While the
time is short in which to prepare
for so great a convention, 1t is
long enough to make 1t great
success if Eudeavors and citizens
will all work to make thl~ one OF
the best conventions ever held IN
the stste. Much enthusiasm is
manifest and we have no tear
that Corvallis will, as usual,
prove an hospitable host.
At the meeting Monday night
the following committees were
appointed.
