strenuously objected to the CON-
mon practice of using the social
gathering as a means of raising
money.
Miss Mae Shook of Northome
read what became famous in the con-
vention as the "eight-minute paper"
The subject was, The Epworthian's
Ideal Culture" In developing her
thought that culture" is a system
attic Improvement and refinement of
the mind" she quoted from many
men of known culture, to show that
the spiritual life contains far more
than what might be commonly
termed religious" She emphasized
prayer, activity and faith as essential
to the requirement of culture.
In the afternoon, a paper bv Mrs.
w. G.. Lowthian of Akeley on the
Possibilities and Limitations of the
Junior League" brought out many
benefits derived in Junior league
which cannot be had in the Sunday
school.
During the evening meeting. the
last of the convention, three plat
form addresses were delivered by
well-known ministers. Rev. R. G..
Green of Akeley laid great stress
upon having the best and more tai
ented and quickest members of the
league upon the mercy and help
department.
Rev. E. R. Stevenson of Park
Rapids told of the need to be up
and doing" in the work of world
Evangelization."
Rev. w. H. Farrell of Wadena
showed that beautiful theories will
accomplish nothing if the life be not
filled with the spirit"
The business session yeste rday
afternoon resulted in the election of
the following officers:
President, w. H. Farrell of

The officers were installed by the

Reports of committees showed the
district to have improved to a
marked degree.
A launch ride to the head of Lake

hospitality and kindness.
All who were present regarded
the convention as the most success
full since the district was organized
: The total outside registration was
sixty-eight.
; The general spirit of the conven

tendency to degenerate into a mere
organization for religious services

help was under consideration at the
opening of Thursday mornings
session of the Brainerd District
Epworth League convention.
In discussing the Relation of the
League to the Sick and Needy
Miss Pretzel of Wadena emphasized
the Importance of this kind of ser
vice in successful league work.
Methods were suggested for the
department committee, which il
carried out, ought to make the depart
ment vital force in the community
A paper by Paul E. Shannon of
Bemidjl on The League as a Factor
in Civic Life" took up the work OF
the league in making good citizens
of it's individual members and also
in helping to solve, as an organiza.
ton, many of the important public
problems of the day.
C. O. Parrish of Cass Lake, secre.
tary of the convention, spoke on
The League as a Force in Temper
ance Reform" He advocated the
federation of all churches under the
anti-saloon league, inasmuch as all
saloonkeepers and brewers are organ
lied. He quoted an instance OF
where $4,000 was sent into the city
of Superior from the outside saloon
organization to help fight single
campaign against no license.
The Literary and Social Depart
ment" was the next general theme
A paper by Rev. ]. H. DeniSton
of this city on Social Life in the
Light of the Word," was by far the
heaviest and most deliberately pre-
pared paper of the entire convention
He characterized Christianity sue
cessively as civilization, a system, a
light, but showed that to be any Of
these the church must be constantly
improving. The Bible is not to be
worshipped as a fetish, but is O.
value merely because of its intrinsic
worth, because of the teachings OF
Christ therein given and of the
three years of service and sacrifice
by which those teachings we're exem
pljfed. Considering the individual
he showed that each person is more
or less spiritual, that science and al
the teachings of the modern schoo
prove every person to be spiritual
The church therefore must adapt it
self to the need of the individual ant

Crowded city populations ar

play games here next Tuesday and
