ELABORATE PREPARATIONS
BY ELLENSBURG PEOPLE
Christian EndeayOr Convention
Promises to BE q Great Success
From Every Standpoint.

Elaborate preparations are being
made for the entertainment of the
convention of Christian Endeayor So
cieties of Washington, which will be
held in Ellensburg. from the 26th
to 30th of June
The Ellensburg local union of So
cieties IS making full plans for the
entire meeting, having selected the
following prominent business and
professional men to head the various
committees: Executive, l.. l.. Seely;
finance, F. Z. Craig; entertainment,
H. w. Hale; reception, Frank Will
son; music, R. c. Sargent; decora-
ton, l.. E. Palmer, and publicity, NJ.
Z. Randall.
The musical recital will be one of
the chief attractions of the conven-
ton. Fully GO or IS voices will take
part in the rendition of the oratorio,
Holy City" The Rev. r. C. Sar-
gent has charge of the drilling for
the recital He has had considerable
experience in such recitals, having
had charge of the rendition of like
oratorios in state conventions in
Iowa.
The entertainment committee has
commenced its campaign for securing
60 IalA
gates that are expected. Last Sun
day an appeal was made through the
names of those who would furnish
rooms and meals, but if the response
is not sufficient to satisfy H. w. Hale,
chairman of the committee, he has
hit upon plan to secure the places,
and thus any danger of not having
accommodations for the visiting del
egates is eliminated
The convention hall has been secur-
ed and will be deliberately decorated
for the event. The seating capacity
of the hall will be 1000. In the last
few years every church in the city
has had its house enlarged, thus in
creasing their seating capacity ma
terially and placing Ellensburg in
the front ranks for church work Of
convention order.
The reception committee has a
number of excursions under advise
ment SO that every spare moment out
of the meetings OF the convention
will be occupied in viewing the scenic
panorama about the city of sunshine.
At recent meeting of the chair
men of the several committees it
was decided to purchase a beautiful
souvenir badge which will be pre-
sented to every person taking men,
bership card in the convention. Each
member of the convention will be
entitled to a membership card, pro-
gram and a badge.
The program has been nearly COM
pleted and will include addresses by
many notable speakers of state and
national reputation.
Reports from the several societies
Of the state are evidence for the be-
lief that a large representation Of
the Christian Endeavor workers OF
the state will be in Ellensburg.

And the battle grows fiercer and hot

the fight of his life. He is canvassing
the state, speaking several times ev-

In the meantime, the prohibition
law is being enforced as strictly as
possible No saloons exist in the

violate the law are severely punished.
This keeps whisky out of the reach
of the working classes generally, par

the original object of the legislation.

large falling off in the number Of
