! Probably many noticed in last weeks
Christian Endeavor World the picture Of
Miss Bessie Hall, field secretary in
Canada. She is personal friend OF the
Florida secretary and sends her The
Daily Witness, published in Montreal.
This has weekly liberal space for Chris
tian Endeavor which is headed each
time: by "Secretary'S Message. 7" Fol-
this week il is the following advice,
good for FloridianS, also. "One way to
have good meetings is TO do good be-
tween meetings. To plan wisely is as
much duty as 10 labor earnestly. A
workman that needeth NOT TO be ashamed
studies TO show himself approved. We
do not truly keep our Christian Endea
Vor pledge unless we Try 10 help Others
keep their pledge. To wear c. L.
pin lead others 10 constant expectation
/ of good deeds from the wearer."
The beautiful estate, pheasant Hills, y
at South Lake Weir has changed hands
and some good people from Kansas have
taken the place OF Mr.. and Mrs Olson
who have been in charge of the farm
since The UphamS moved TO ST. Peters
burg. Here the 0lsons will soon &C
and will be found faithful WORK ers in
the Endeavor cause there. Weirsdale
1 society which has the help of all En-
deavorers at South Lake Weir, are re-
ioicing in the gaining Of some, really
young new members. Recently they
/ had ''box social at the Presbyterian
church, gaining $500 for the new or
gan fund, plus a good time.
The Ocala Banner said that at the
Junior meeting last Sunday in the Chris
tan church of the brick city, "Mastel
Floyd Coleman, the PASTORS son was to
lead, with topic, THE Preacher in the
Desert. Junior Endeavor topics this
year keep closely in touch with the Sun
day school lessons. In Intcrlachcn the
| picture roll of Sabbath school is used al
so in the Endeayor meetings and the
children enjoy it'thuS.
State President Alex Linn is spending
much time this winter in Tarpon
Springs where is situated the Presbyte

| over year.
Cordial greetings came a few days
ago from General Secretary Shaw, the
! interstate secretary, Mr.. Lehman, the
! colored trustee OF the United Society,
Booker T. Washington, and leaders of
Endeavor in Washington, D. G. and
! New Jersey.
The Tampa Sunshine Branch of the
w. c. T. u. gave weight social re
Gently at which all were required to pay
one cent for every ten pounds of theii
weight. This is good and novel plar
for Endeayor SociaIs. Personally the
slate press superintendent would iavoi
this p an as il would mean about sever
cents outlay for her.
Two CHEEKY messages have just come
into our office from Marcus c. Fagg
superintendent OF the State Children
Home. He is getting out some new
| literature and will send each Endeavoi
society sample of it. Please examine
same before putting il in the waste baS
