inaugurated among the women of all
evangelical denominations and a series
of conventions reaching to large cities
from San Francisco to New England is
in progress, to eliminate in a great
mass convention in the city of New

Christian women of America as was
the laymen's campaign last year for
the brotherhood
The Christian wOmen's board of
missions has undertaken to hold twelve
sub-rallies in Kansas and one of these
will be held at Lawrence December

well attended, and resulted in Larned
and Wellington becoming living-link

dollars each per year for the support
of a foreign missionary. large. dele
cation from Topeka and surrounding
country will attend the Lawrence rally
next Tuesday and Wednesday. The
