METHODIST CENTENARY
WENATCHEE APRIL 10
Will Include Those Who Have Taken
Part in Three Wars-Will Assist
Veterans in Many Ways

Following along the lines of the
Methodist centenary world program
conference recently in Spokane, there
will be held Thursday, April 10, at the
First Methodist Episcopal church, We
natchee, a district mobilization rally
of the Epworth league. There will
be delegates from every league chap
ter in the Wenatchee district and, it is
expected, many delegates from outside
points will make the trip to Wenat-
chez for the conference.
The league conference plans to be-
gin to mobilize the $4,000 members of
the Epworth league in the northwest
behind the great spiritual and finan-
cial campaign of the Methodist CEN
tenary.
Of the 5SS,O00 Epworth League
members in the United States, the
Methodist centenary hopes to enroll
100000 pledged to daily prayer for
the centenary, 235,000 pledged to de-
vote themselves, if called upon, to life
service for the cause of Christianity,
and 117,000 who will make solemn
pledge to devote one-tenth of their in
come to the work of God.
Plans by which this may be realized
among the leaguers will be discussed
at the Wenatchee conference.
Towards the $105,000,000 fund of
the Methodist centenary, the league
has promised to subscribe 100000 al
though it is expected the ultimate to-
tai of the league members will be
nearer $1,0O0,0OO.
Rev. J. Edgar Purdy has been ap-
pointed Epworth league secretary for
the Northwest to aid in furthering the
centenary aim.
Among the speakers at the Wenat
chee conference will be J. Edgar Pur-
dy, Epworth league secretary, Port
land area; DR.. Stanley of Spokane; DR..
Robert Warner, of Wenatchee; DR.. Fl.
o. Perry of Moscow, Idaho; and Miss
WeWilla Caffray of Wenatchee.
Sessions will last both afternoon
and night, beginning at pm.
At o'clock, dinner will be served
in the church dining room. There
will be toasts, with series of four
minute responses. The evening SER
vices will begin at 7:30.
All phases of the Epworth League
part in the Methodist centenary pro-
gramme will be presented. DR.. Stan
ley G. Logan will discuss the "Strat-
egy of the Centenary" DR.. Purdy will
discuss the 'Epworth League Lining
Up," and will lead a discussion on

ROYAL DEVELOPMENT co.
PLANS TO Do MUCH WORK
Will Develop Red Mountain Mining
PrOperty-Deep Snow Will Prevent
Work Before Middle of May

Mr.. j. F. Naughton arrived here last
Saturday from his home in Butte,
Montana where he spent the winter.
Mr. Naughton spent the past two sum-
mers here experimenting develop
ment work and expects to do much
work the coming summer. Because
there is still some twelve feet of snow
in that altitudinous region it will be
impracticable to begin operations be-
fore the middle of May.
The company patented several of
their claims last year and will next
week perfect the patent of other
claims. There are still claims to be
patented as soon as proper papers
can be prepared. Mr.. Naughton ex-
poets to depart for Butte next week
and will return early in May.

YAKIMA EXPECTS 1880 CARS
OF FRUIT

District Horticultural Inspector C.
B. Wood has given out the first esti-
mate on the 1919 fruit crop of Yak
ina county, placing the total of all va
rieties of fruit at 1880 carloads. His
estimate, which was conditional upon
escape from serious frost damage, was
apportioned as follows: Apples, H.
200 cars; peaches, $500 cars; pears,
$500 cars; cherries, 300 cars; other
fruits, 800 cars. Frost damage is
feared this spring on account of the
early development of fruit; but, un-
less such damage does occur, there
will be bumper crop, he said, as the
trees are set unusually full of buds.

WORLD CONFERENCE OF CHURCHES WILL
 BE HELD IN FUTURE

DETROIT, Mich, Ocvt. 13.-A world conference on Faith and Order is assured. It will probably convene during 1920, but the definite date has not been fixed hTe success that has attended the world tour of three bishops of the Episcopal church in the United States to secure pledges of participation in the conference of the great churches of Christendom, makes certain the creation of the greatest ecumenical council in the religious history of the world. While it may not affect the organic union of the divided bodies of Christ Christ throughout the world, it will bring them together as "a world league of Christian brethren for Christian service" as they have never been brought before.
 just returned from tour of the world in, the interest of the confer Nnce will make a report at the trien- nial general convention of the Epi5- copal church in the United States which assembled in this city on Oc- tober s. The bishops making the tour were the Rt. Rev. Charles An derson. the bishop of Chicago, the Rt Rev Reginald Heber Weller. the bishop of Fond du Lac, Wis, and the Rt Rev Boyd Vincent, the bishop of southern Ohio. They have issued the following formal declaration:
 "The world conference is now as- sured The invitation to join in ar ranging for it has been accented gen. erally by churches throughout the world which find their hope in God in three Persons. Our Creator, Re. deemer and Sanctifier, the manifes tation of infinite life and perfect love in One, transcending all worlds, yet ready to dwell in every humblest heart The Church of Rome is an exception, for the Pope has found himself unable to accept this oppor- tunity to make clear the faith and claims of the Church of Rome and to try to appreciate the position of other Communions.
 "The commission appointed nine years ago by the American Episcopal church to issue the invitations to the conference does not feel that it's task is complete till it urges thanksgiv- ing and prayer It therefore begs all who bear the name of the Son of God Incarnate to offer constant thanks to God for His grace which is stirring the hearts of men to unity. and to pray regularly and earnestly that God the Holy Ghost will guide and strengthen every movement for reunion and all the preparations for the converting of the world confer ence, so that, when its members as semble all in one place. they may be prepared to receive, all of one ac cord the guidance of the Spirit Of Truth and Love in all their delibera tions.
 "We ask especially for the public as well as private observance of the Octave of Prayer next January 1923.
 fJanuary 5-12 in the Eastern Calen- dar)."
