Christian Endeavorers Delighted with
Their Convention at Aroostook
Metropolis.

Some of you readers may be Interested
in the convention of the Maine Union of
Christian Endeavor held at Houlton,
Sept. 3-5. Your correspondent had the
pleasure and honor of being present, and
with four others, two from China and
two from Albion, representing Kennebec
.C. f. Union. Before trying to tell of
some of the good things we heard and
saw, we should like to mention a most
delightful meeting with an old friend
one morning. 1t was none other than

Prince of Life"
All men are to be brought TO a knowl-
edge of God. The Scriptures declare,
the knowledge of the glory of God shall
fill the whole earth" Jesus declared
that no one can know the Father except
as first he come to know the Son, or as
the Son reveals the Father to him.
Hence those who have failed to recog-
nize Jesus as the Son of God have not
yet come to the fun appreciation of their
privileges. Blessed are our eyes, that
now they see, and our ears that now
they hear. that we may know Messiah,
and through Him know the Father; and
Jesus may come in to us and sup with
us, and we with characterization ILL 20.
We are glad that all mankind in due
time will be brought to a clear knowI-
edge and full opportunity But oh, how
much greater is our blessing, besides

Kingdoml

this, the village Is not only large but
most beautiful Neat. comfortable and
even elegant homes are the rule. Not
alone at the homes of the wealthy does
one find lawns closely trimmed and neat

but everywhere, on more retired streets
and less pretentious homes-the differ

kind.
The conference had an afternoon OFF

our host had planned to take us. with
some friends, in his team, and so we
went that way We drove by a 65 acre
potato field, where the digger was al
ready at work \ 30-acre lot excited no
particular interest while if a farmer had
only 20 acres or so of potatoes, he might
have enough for family use, but was
hardly to be mentioned among potato
growers

acres. Thirty and 40 acre fields of oats
We're shown us, where potatoes had been
grown last year. The oats were about
ripe and were very heavy and lodged

The hospitality of Maine people is pro-
verbal and the good people of Houlton
gave a splendid Illustration OF it. They
opened their homes and their hearts to
the convention and nothing was too good
for their guests.

the Baptist foreign missionary work. He
held up small package of queer looking
cloth not much larger than one could
tuck into his overcoat pocket and asked
us to guess how many suits, complete

four. They were garments such as the
