Does any one know Charles Devlin

sonville in November? He was intro
duced to US by Mr.. A. Schaeb, intro
duction superintendent for New York
but no street number was given, and
we have thus far been unable to To-
cate the new conner. 1t was said he
would prefer to unite with a Coz
gregatlonal society but doubtless he
would be glad of kindness shown by
any of our Jacksonville friends.
1t was cheering to have Miss May
HaWley, secretary of the Gilmore
society write: 1--WE read of the State
Convention in the Times Union" So
many people forget to encourage the
press writer this way.
Mr.. Fred Mcclure, leader of the
Ocoee Christian church society AMI
president for Orange and Osceola dis
trict, was delegate at the State con-
vention. Among ex-officers were the
two district presidents, Rev. S. S.
snyder, who was succeeded by Mr..
Mcclure, and S. Jay Adams, of St.
Petersburg. Mr. Adams was proba-
| bly, the youngest and also one of the
best district presidents we have had
when over Southwestern, largest di-
vision of the State Union.
One Young Peoples society has a
special collection each Missionary
meeting, and sends this monthly gift
to the State Sunshine superintendent
tor postage in this department of orr
work. The West Tampa Congrega-
tlonal workers also have this monthly |
collection and use it mostly for the |
great local demand for help-the |
Spanish American missions of the eli !

society in North Central district.
She. sends regrets for none of their
workers being able to attend. AMI Il
appreciation of the invitation to do
so, and ending with these words.

helpful and spiritual convention"
An appreciated missive was that
from Rev. Bergen B. Stats, who
with his wife, locating near Ocala,
Central district, were introduced by
EndeaVorers of their former church
home in a northern state. Miss Le
Ian Brightwell, West Tampa, the
Florida introduction superintendent;
and the secretary sent them greet
Lngs. Mr.. Stats was from the Re
formed church of which little is
known here. He now serves the
Starke Presbyterians. His letter
