EVERYDECzHON or COMMITTEE
HAS BEEN ON ITS MERITS
By WILLIANI ALLEN lYHIrE

Specialt to Tho Times ID lspatchl
HICAGO. I'LL, June 1S.-The
committee working on the cree
dentials to the national con-
~ vention has not had a roll call
The request to do away with
the roll call came from the repre- senta-
tives of the allies, the gentlemen OPP
posing the nomination of Taft. Yet
every case so far decided has been de-
cided entirely for Taft or has been de-
cided for compromise giving him, at
least. half the delegates.
If there is anything seriously wrong
with the decisions of the committee
they would demand roll call. But In
the nature OF things there Is nothing
seriously wrong. Men do not get into
promine nee enough at home to be made
national committeeman who are not
essentially men, at bottom honest men,
according to the lights OF their COM
munities, and while one man here and
there may come into national commit
tea who would steal the tacks out of
the carpet under him Just toSkeep his
hand In, he is after all an exception,
and the average man sitting In ma
tional committee Is pretty much like
the average man sitting In a lodge
meeting. or in directors meeting at
u DHUF<, sees tHO merits OF lt, me tnlng
which those In the lobby OF the Coli
SCUM, where the national committee sit,
call the steam roller of the Taft ma
chine is really the average Judgment
OF the average American citizen upon
the facts presented.

On the committee listening to the
evidence are former Governor Warrick.
OF Ohio; Frank B, Kellogg, of Minne-
sofa, Senators Lodge and Crane. John

thing crooked was going OH in that
committee meeting hearing they would
not only know IT but they would not
permit 1t, They think more OF their
own regulations than OF Tafts nomina-
Itlon. So when day after day Taft wins
Southern delegates with these men as
Judges OF the evidence, there is good
reason to suppose that the evidence OF
regularity is with the Taft delegations,
The facts are that the allies In cer-

EPWORTH LEAGUE NOTES.

July and August are uneventful months
in League circles. as many of the leaders
Of chapters are taking their vacations.
Nearly all of the Methodist churches are
holding twilight services Sunday evenings
in connection with the song service Of the
Epworth League. Some Of these twilight
services are held in the streets or park
ing. Hamline and Lynn chapters taking
especially active parts in this work. The
participation of the leaguers in this out
door work is regarded as showing an ear
nestness among leaguers that promises
we'll for the coming fall.
Luther L. Derrick. former president Of
the District League. has just returned
from his vacation. and is deep these days
in the mysteries of mural decoration and
league finances. He has taken up the prep
aration of the new District EpWorth
League directory for this fall.
The steering committee for securing
the international convention of Epworth
Leaguers is collecting information rela-
tive to ways and means of furthering the
project and hopes to have full report to
submit to the board of control of the Dis
trict League at the September meeting
This will probably be the best attended
session this summer, for the question of
having the convention here is arOusing
considerable interest in every chapter in
the city and suburbs, and will be thor
oughly discussed at that session after the
committee has presented it's report and

CHRISTIAN ENDEAVOR NOTES.

The success of the August meeting of
the union. which was held in Berwyn,
Md, has induced the board of officers to
plan for a somewhat similar outing for
the next meeting which comes On Labor
day. Through the Falls Church Christian
EndeavOr Society the beautiful grounds of
the Presbyterian church at Falls Church,
Va, have been secured for the occasion,
and it is planned to spend large part of
the afternoon as well as the evening in
the country.
Arrangements have been made for spe-
cial cars to leave Washington at 2:3O D. M,
reaching their destination at 3:15 pm.
Then will follow program of games and
other amusements after which a musical
and literary entertainment will be given
In the open air. After dispoSng OF
basket lunches. all will assemble in the
church, where the union meeting will be
held.
Rev. DR.. William T. Stuchell of Rah-
way. n. j.. who is coming to Washington
to preach at the New York Avenue Pres
byterian Church. will be one of the speak
ers at this meeting.
1t is expected party of EndeavOrers
and their friends which will fill several
cars will go on this outing.
Thirty-six societies were represented at
the recent meeting of the union at Ber-
wyn. The nearby societies had the largest
representation, twenty-eight registering
from the Berwyn Presbyterian Society
and thirteen from Riverdale Presbyte
The Vermont Avenue Christian Society
sent thirteen. and the North Carolina
Avenue Methodist Protestant nine.
A Christian Endeavor Union orchestra
is expected to be the result of plans now
being developed by Miss Virginia L. Ray
mond, superintendent of the music depart
ment. Names and addresses of those who

quarters.
News of the marriage of Mp. q. J. +.

our cares and our pleasures and never
discovering the wonders God has hidden

them.
