Florida Christian Endeavor.

On the scripture calendar facing ouI
typewriter is this helpful quotation good
for>6ther months as well as March; in
dry weather.
"Whatever way the wind doth blow,
Some heart is glad TO have il so,
So blow ii east or blow il west,
The wind that blows, that is best"
State Treasurer Douglas was given a
shower of congratulations from over the
union on his birthday, February rs. He
also received annual dues from several
societies, and is very gratified over the
result of having "real birthday"
II was good news indeed that Orange
county will stay dry as far as open sa-
looms go, for while longer. We have
Endeavor societies in Orlando, Winter
Park and Occee, and feel sure their
members helped in the good fight.
We wish Christian EndeavorerS would
ask more favors OF the editors. This is
the age of advertising, both in religious
and secular activities, and "the general
public" will not think our societies are
doing much unless they tell the good
news in the papers.
In church conference recently in
Tampa the Allen c. E. Leaguers were
so numerous they had special mass
meeting" for their organization. This
spirit of enterprise is just what all de-
nominations should show, in Young
Peoples work, whether UNCONVENTIONAL
or Christian Endeavor by name.
State convention time is May 5-7th,
and the place, St. Petersburg. Most of
us are longing for "a Spring time out
ing" Here is the combination, con.
vention and beautiful ST. Petersburg.
One of the best church programs we
have seen for many days seems to us
that of the Congregational State Associa-
ton which soon holds in Tampa, with
Rev. r. Lee Kirkland, past-host. The
sessions commence Tuesday evening,
April 4, and close Friday evening. Part
of the program is to be in the West
Tampa church, and there is enough of
the Spanish-American tone about that
part TO make it most interesting as well
as unusual. Friday forenoon in the
Tampa church comes a full hour for
Christian Endeavor. First, an address
by State President Linn, next a discus
sion led by Rev. c. N. Krook, president
of East Central dristrict, and the En-
Congregational churches of the state.
All interested in our organization, no
matter TO, what denomination they be-
long, are cordially invited TO share in
this Endeavor hour, Friday morning,
April 9TH, at the First Congregational
church, Tampa.
A letter just in from our good friend,
Mr.. Karl Lehman, is addressed from
Fort Worth, Texas, where he is com
mencing campaign inthe interests of
the Memorial Fund. When we gather
at Atlantic City in July for the Interna-
tional convention it is expected that
enough money will have been raised to
make sure of our Christian Endeavor
Home in not far distant days. Florida
Endeavors should do their part.

Fellow Democrats.

pals. When the sun beats down terribly
hard in South Carolina, Townsend take'

way that he scarce knew it. Together
they went walking.
"Lookn She pointed where the
road bent about the upper ledge of the

He drew nearer 10 her. They had

he said. He stepped back OF her SO
close that, had she moved the slightest,
her head would have touched his Shout

rapidly moving car, as though il alone
was worthy of her interest.
However, her companion saw the
change of color in her cheek and the
soft, lender light in her eyes. She did
care, after all. Her wit and repartee had
been her shield and buckler. She had
been beautiful before, with hard, me-
tallic beauty-but now she was alive,
aluring and ten times more lovely.

Champ Clark.

Champ Clark's 90 years have rested
lightly upon him. While his hair has
grown white and thin on the top of his
head, nevertheless his appearance is thai
of a much younger man than he actually
is. With smooth shaven face, clean
cut, near classic features, firm mouth,
determined jaw and clear, piercing eyes,
and kindly, almost benevolent counte.
nance, he might be as easily taken for a
country parSon as for a statesman, and
the fact is that he is preacher as we'll as
politician. For many years he has been
a member of the church of the Dsci-
pies of Christ, or rather, as he prefers 10
call it, the Campbellite church, so des-
ignated because of its founder, Alex.
Campbell. Under its tenetS all of its
members are licensed preachers, and
Champ Clark is one of them. Upon
frequent occasions he has delivered
addresses from the pulpit, and he is
an authority on church history, particu.
Iarly that of his own. In Washington
he attends the Christian church on Yer
mont avenue, where the late President
Garfield worshiped Moreover, he
lives up to the teachings of the faith and
is as ardent in championing its cause as
he is earnest in his devotion TO his party.

Fuller's Earth Production.

A late bulletin of the United States
Geological survey, states that:
"More than half the fuller'S earth pro-
duced in the United States is mined in
Florida, but the entire domestic produc-
ton supplies only three-fourths of the
home demand, about one-fourth of the
amount used being imported. The
value of the total production in 1909
was 1901 ,6O4; the imports were valued at
$101, ISL.
..'Fuller's earth has been largely used
for cleaning grease from cloth and furs,
but it is now chiefly used in this country
for clarifying oils. The report discusses
the chemical composition of the mate
rial and presents theories TO account for
its peculiar properties.
"The chapter was compiled by +. B.
Van Horn, of the Survey, and can be
