Christian Endeavor Societies
Girdle the Earth; Aim at
. 10000 Societies

Winona Lake, Ind, July AT
1.-THE conference of trustees and field
secretaries of the United Society of
Christian Endeavor, a four-day ses-
ls!on was held at which the Rev, DR..
Francis z. Clark, LII. D., president
lof the United Society of Christian
Endeavor and OF the Worlds Chris
ltian Endeavor Union, gave the bien-
lnial message with suggestions for
the campaign of 1917-1919. He said
IN part: The sun never sets upon
the Christian Endeavor movement.
ON every continent, beside every
shore, on the banks of every great
river, on all the large islands Of the
world, our societies are found. In
New York and London, in Paris and
,Christiania, in Tokyo and Peking,
in Cairo and Calcutta. in Melbourne
and Cape Town, Christian Endeavor
finds itself equally at home.
The goal set for the coming bien-
MUM Is ten thousand standard socie-
ties and five hundred standard
unions. These societies and unions
shall be entitled to special diplomas
or medals and suitable recognition
will be given to societies that have
REACHED other II lesser standards
state, district and local unions are
urged to compete with one another
for the largest number of societies,
c. E. Experts, Quiet Hour Comrades
and Tenth Legionaries.
@. l.. Plays Big Part
+ Christian Endeavor has played
part in promoting the comfy and
fellowship of the nations. The last
ilnion meeting of Britons and Ger
mans and French and Dutch was n
British Christian Endeavor conven-
hion in London only two months be-
fore the war broke out. The union
meeting in South Africa after the
Boer war was a Christian Endeavor
fellowship meeting between Beers
and British in Cape Town. a few
months after that bitterly contested
war closed. / know whereof 1 speak,
for l was present at both meetings."
said DR.. Clark.
I The next Worlds Christian En-
deavor convention will be held in
New York City on the conclusion of
the war, and will be the best of all
lEndeavorer's great gatherings.
The Rev. Daniel A. Polling, asso-
iciate president, reported that special
.omphasis was placed on the success
i{ul work of the young people for
Nar prohibition. The slogan, a
Saloonless Nation by 1920 first
adopted by the International Chris
'b31 Endeavor convention in 1911,
has become the proclamation for a
lsRIeonless world"
IIlIunior Christian Endeavor Socie-
ftisS are making thousands of COM
feEb bags for the Red Cross.
Special honor rolls are being pre-
lpSrea for the enrolment of all En-
!dSSBerers who engage in any form of
fnUjSary, relief, or food production
iSerVice.
In the army itself, wherever prac-
lticehte, regimental Christian Endea-
iNor Societies will be organized. The
fAEst=society of this kind has already
ihsRns organized by the Second En-
Eikekrs at El Paso.
