We have not yet taken possession of

Al the Seattle Convention il was
my privilege TO report a total enrol
ment of 69.13S societies. with a mem
'bership of 3.456.90O. This great host
has been still further increased by
the addition of 1855 societies. with a
membership of $4,000. making our
present net enrolment 7l,493 societies
with 3.55I10O members.
Practically all the evangelical demo
minations are represented in this
worldwide fellowship. The Presby-
terians stIll hold the first place. with

societies. Next come the Disciples.
who by the united, enthusiastic inter-

own church than Christian Endeavor.
which at the same time maintains bro
therly relations with the other divis-
ions of the Lords army.
Neither time nor space will permit
the enumeration of the long list of
denominations and their subdivisions
that are represented in our movement.
When Christian Endeavor has done
its perfect work their number will
be smaller, but their strength and eff
fectiveness will be greater.
Last year the United Brethren
Young Peoples Union AT its national
convention voted to come into our in
terdenominational fellowship at the
United Brethren Christian Endeayor
Union. All hail and welcome to these
earnest young people: and may their
action be a prophecy of the speedy
coming of the day when all the de
nominational societies shall be feder-
ated under the broad. inclusive name
of Christian Endeavor, and We all be
come united brethren in Christ.
This is coming on the mission fields
may iI speedily come in the home
field.
Christian Endeavor does not legis
late for the local societies; We do not
levy taxes or assessments: We exer-
else no authority; We stand for no
dead level of uniformity; we ask only
for the fellowship that shall reveal to
the world our essential oneness in
faith. in spiritual experience. and in
practical service

Spirituality and Stewardship.

The growth of our young people in
spiritual life. which must precede and
vitalize all real service, is shown by
the large increase In the Comrades of
the Quiet Hour. The number of those
who have covenanted TO spend a few
minutes each day in quieI communion
with God through prayer and the
Word is now 4S.561.
Equally encouraging has been the
steady growth of the Tenth Legion.
which now numbers 25.773 persons
who have consecrated and set apart
at least the tenth of their income for
work of the Kingdom in all the world.

ing fcr religious work was discussed.

interest the Record gives The report
of Secretary Shaw. IL follows:
The theme of Lhis great Convention
Thy Kingdom Come" is the keynote
of Christian Endeavor.
For two years. or since our last
report. more than three score and
ten thousand societies and three and
a half million menbers have been
praying and iaboring TO that end.
We are here tonight TO review in
the briefest possible way the record
of these years.

Growth Inward.

But more important and gratifying
than the growth in members is the
record of service rendered by our So
cieties and unions during the past two
years.
1t is impossible even to name the
different forms of service undertaken
by our societies. They cover the
whole field of social. civic, philantrro-
pic. and religious work.
The spirit of Christian Endeavor is
that of genuine democracy. We be-
lieve in working with others as well
as for them. Glass and caste must go
and the Christ standard of service
and sacrifice for the individual, demo-
mination, and nation must be accept
ed.
What would Jesus have me do?" is
not a question for a day. nor a week.
nor a year. for one city OF country:
but it is the question for all time and
for every man. 1t is the standard
for the individual. for society, for bu-
siness. for politics, and for religion.
| believe that our young people are
more ready to accept this test and
apply it TO life now than they have
ever been before. The application of
this principle is shown in the recoI-1
of the Philadelphia Christian Endea-
vor Union. which has just celebrated
its twenty-first anniversary. and the
work of this union is typical of that
of many others. Twenty-one years
ago there were eight societies in the
Philadelphia Union: now there are
four hundred and eighty.
Then the work of the societies con-
sisted largely of a prayer meeting and
social and the work of the union
was an occasional mass meeting. Last
year more than forty inspirational raj
lies were held i'm different parts of the
city and more than four hundred vol
untary and unpaid workers were try
ing to help other young people to a
vision of the larger life in Christ.
One hundred and twenty mission
study classes were organized. and
conferences on mission work were
held with one hundred and fifty socie-
ties.
Hundreds of evangelistic meetings
were held in missions. homes. prisons.
hospitals. police stations. street car
barns. and public parks. and on street
corners.
The Floating committee extended a
welcome to thousands of seafaring
men, and distributed several THOUSAND
confort-bags. tons OF clean, whole
some literature, and hundreds of Bi
bles. in many languages. and held
meetings on shipboards and on the
piers every Lords Day.
In many smaller cities. and in the
country as well. equally good work
is being done. The foreigner who
has come 20 our shores. and all toe
often has been treated as an alien, Is
| now being received IS a brother. and
societies of Christian Endeavor. clubs
for fellowship. and classes for instruc
tion are being formed to make him ar
| intelligent American citizen and ar
| earnest Christian.
