"HIS Is the birthday of John Yves
ley, who Is practically unknown

versity is celebrated with great rever-
ence by millions Of 1Iethodists who are
following his recipe for saint-making
with great success.
Wesley was born in England, June II,
I7O3. He went to Oxford, and after a
notable athletic and social career became
a deacon and settled down to a life of
endowed piety in the English church.
Wesley attended the local plays and
fairs, shot plovers and enjoyed himself
as an English rector until his atten-
ton was one day turned towards re-
ligion. He then began to study theology
and to analyze his soul with great dill
gence, and in order to perfect himself for
his future work he returned to Oxford
and lived on $40 a year. In 1885 he
came to Georgia to convert the indians,
but found more promising material
among the English at savannah and
organized a church which he called the
Methodist church. His health failing, he
returned to London where he preached
and prayed and on the oath of May,
1873, at a quarter before o in the eve
