 Young Peoples Missionary Movement.
 The speaker of tn evening was Har- B. Myers. assistant general secre- tary Of the Young Peoples Missionary Movement, and the subject of his ad- dress, which he treated in a. forceful and interesting manner, with the aid of the stereopticon, was The Church in Training for the World Task.
 MT Myers said that he thought we all had more or less of an idea of the task that confronts the world at the present time, There are three reasons especially why the church should be praying for the fulhlment of this task. The first is because of the need Of Christ; the second. because of the great need of the church, for in exert = ing itself along these lines there is sure to follow a decided increase in spiritual life; and. thirdly, the world, as was shown in such a powerful man . ner Thursday evening, is in dire need of spiritual enlightenment and quick enlng. A number of organizations have been established to bring about this happy state of affairs, that a good many Christian workers are praying for and laboring to obtain and in many cases they have spread out far beyond the scope they were originally planned to cover.
 Pictures were thrown on the screen at this time to illustrate the statement that the church is in training for the world task. The leaders in this move ment, from the earliest beginnings down to the present time, were shown q SnInpSe into the He and activities of several summer conferences was af- forded, that noted especially being the 1910 conference held at Silver Bay, near Lake George. After throwing on the canvas a slide showing the per- centage of heather people in this world of ours $ compared with the follow CTS of the several faiths, which told it's own story in a most effective manner, MT Myers displayed a picture of the first native of Corea that was ever li- censed to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ. Mir. Myers told of what a pow CT for good this man had become, and of what others, like hta1, were accom- plishing.
 These pictures, whfisG were thrown out at frequent inttf gals and which were not only of excaP @onal high quail ity. but contained Efhany powerful suggestions, were given, so the speaker stated at the beginning, not so much for entertainment as for the purpose of instruction, so that his audience could see for themselves the work that is being carried on.
 Miss Ruby Vaughn of the Central Baptist church is one of the faithful assisting the committee on exhibit and literature in Broadway Congregational church. There is a large display of material for use of teaching missions in the Sunday schools, also missionary books for study and Sunday school helms.
