Charles c. Kitchener. general secretary of
the young peoples missionary movement
spoke on Bible and Mission Study IN the
Belleville Avenue Congregational Church
this afternoon.
Miss Stephens reports several new dis
trict secretaries since the convention. She
says of the State work:
"IIunterdon-Mr. Thomas was at New
ark, too, and as to the help he received, he
says 1t was from 5. ID. Gordon's quiet hour
talks, III which he seemed to be held spell
bound. and felt the light thrown in on his
own soul. He felt uplifted, too. by the
christian fellowship. realizing there were
so many earnest fellow-workers, and those
who were handling such difficult problems
that ones own seemed to sink into insig-
n~ifcance. He had felt that the Millville
convention was par excellence, but does
net see how Newark could be improved
upon, and felt it was fully rs helpful as
Millville.
"Morris-Mlss Howell was impressed by
the realness of Christian Endeavor, as
shown anew by the earnestness of speak
ers and delegates. also its far reaching
I power, as a factor in Gods great plan to
save mankind. entering into their lives,
broadening them and uniting their energies
In the one object of increasing His king
dom.
"Passaic-Our fourth new secretary, and
the one that completes the list is A. Ray
mond Hopper, 81 Mercer street, Paterson,

from the conference Wednesday morning.
and particularly Mr.. Clements advice to
the district secretaries TO stand for their
office, and his quotation from Carey, the
great missionary hero, Not to where | am
needed, but to where | am needed most
"Essex-Mr. Hill says the question was
a hard one for him to answer, for he
heard only part of one talk, but one thing
has been impressed upon him through the
work done, and that is that it always pays
to work for others, and he feels that he
has been doubly repaid for the time and
labor he put into the convention, though
he is not yet rested from it. From the
reports that have come to him he believes
the convention was n very helpful one,
and hopes that az received inspiration for
more and better work. He says there are
left over a large number of badges and
programs, which are for sale.
"'Gloucester-The third new secretary is
J.. Ii. Timberman, Glassboro, who, though
president of his county union, consents to
fill this office until he can find someone
else. WeSregret that he could not be at
Newark and get the help in this new
work that the other new ones received"
