great influence in its missionary work. II was n

convention. to consider the work which the of
the Church may do for missions. Work that is
being done by laymen's organizations in various
centres was described and the opinion was freely
expressed that much good might follow a fedora
ton of all such organizations. Such federative
movement started a few months ago. and or
ganizations of in this city, Pittsburg Buffalo,
Baltimore. Providence and Springfield. Mass. have
entered il.
Under the auspices of this federation which is
known the Church Baymen's League, a confer
ence is to be held in this city January "a
and % The meeting at Richmond adopted the
particular form of missionary work they en-
gagged in, to cooperate in making the coming con-
ference representative one. to the end that It
may consider and coordinate the efforts of men
everywhere to help the missionary work of the
Church. The resolution also calls upon bishops
and rectors to urge laymen to unite and to send
representatives TO the conference IN this city.
