WELCOME, EPwoRTH LEAGUERs

Lakeland gives a very cordial well
come this week to the Epworth
League, which convenes in this city
tonight. About $50 delegates are
fine body of Christian young people
They are of the kind Lakeland de-
lights to entertain, and they will be
given the city's best brand of hos
pitality. We trust their stay will be
very pleasant and that their sessions
will be attended with profit to all
who attend.
The Epworth League is a society
of young people of the Methodist
church. which had its origin in
Cleveland, Ohio, in 1889, and which
has from small beginnings extended
all over this country and to many
foreign lands, including Japan,
China and India. There are probably
at this time in the neighborhood of
$4,000 chapters enrolled. The motto
of the society is Look up, lift up
and it's declared object is to pro
mote intelligent and loyal piety in
the young members and friends Of
the church; to aid them in the at
tainment of purity of heart and con-
slant growth and grace, and to train
them in works of mercy and health. -
An organization with such a mot
to and with such objects cannot be
other than very helpful to the church
with which it is affiliated and to the
great cause of religion generally;
and we trust that the delegates will
draw new enthusiasm and inspira-
ton from their deliberations here,
and that they will feel that all our
citizens, irrespective of denomina-
ton, give them kindly welcome and
wish them God speed in their eff
forts to carry out the noble purposes
Of their organization.
