The continued inclemency of the weather, yesterday. was like pouring
cold water on the warm. glowing hearts of the Norwaik Endeavorers.
It
loomed as if the great preparations which hadheen made for the state con-
‘Ventlon would almost count for naught; but an hour before the big meet- '
lag? began the downcast spirits of the young Christian workers gave way to
brighter countenances and sunny smiles. The visiting delegates began to
pour in; not by scores or fifties; but by hundreds, and half an hour before
the convention opened there were overs thousand Endeavorers. glowing with
enthusiasm. in the Armory.
Today. with its’lright. warm sunshine and its bracing air. brought an‘
other large influx of delegates. until the great convention hall fairly glit-
tent! with the sunshine that was in their souls. When last night's meet.-
ing‘ hogan. at 8 o'clock. following a spirited praise service. 594 Endeavorers
had been enrolled. Later in the evening the committee reported that this
number had increased to nearly 650. At noon today the enrollment. was
"so.
The feature of the programme this morning was the annual address of

RALLY.
The Junior rally was one of the
grandest exhibitions ever given on a
VMMM'
public stage in Norwalk. About ihrcc
hundred members of the Junior Chris-
tian Endeavor society and Junior
leagues met at the Norwalk Methodist
church at 3 o‘clock. and twenty min-
utes later marched two by two to the
Armory. where they were detained un-
til 4 o'clock in the vestibule. When
President Buck announced the Junior
rally the doors were thrown open and
the children marched half way around
the hall to the middle aisle and en‘
tcrcd the platform from the west side.
They sang for the precessional hymn
“loyal Soldiers," by Percy 8. Foster,
of Washington. D. C. Prof. Alex. 8.
Gibson presided at the piano and Her-
bert Tilly was cornetlsi. The Juniors
then recited in unison the Twenty~
third Psalm. This was followed by
"Bowing at Thy Feet." and the lord's
Prayer. Then there was a dialogue
between the Junior superintendent.

portunity to serve the Juniors, he was
too modest in do so. Dir. Buck; how

proceeded with a most eloquent ad-
dress. In the course of his remarks
he said: “May your lives and hearts
be as clean and white as this banner;
may‘thls banner be to you a symbol of
lldollty and speed you to good service.
The Juniors then repeated the Ills-
pah benediction. and the congregation
were asked to remain in their lasts
until the Juniors had left the hall.

meeting adjourned for supper.

Half an hour before the service be-

scarcely obtainable. The singing was

first hymn sung was “1'" Steal Away

service is for prayer and praise, and
he asked the ushers to maintain quiet
among those who were standing in the
rear of the room. He read for the
cvoulng scripture lesson the 145th

of "1 Will Sing the Wondrous Story"
was then sung. after which Mr. Fon-

merely the outcome of that individual

Do not think because you consider

least God requires a strict account.

that asp has hardened into another

the sap is for. Emotional develop-
ment which does not harden into the
sturdy wood of active service is false
to Christianity.
Jesus Christ was as much the cor.
vant of God as He was the Son of
God. There are some very keen in—

that Christ was the Son of God. but

The good tidings are not “Como

child He did not think of his sonship
when he said. "Wlat ye not that l was
about my Father‘s business?" If He
had he would have said. "i am God‘s

SECRETARY'S REPORT.
The Thirteenth Annual Report of the
Connecticut Christian Endeavor
Union.
To the Endeavor Friends of Connecti-
cut:
As the material for the thirteenth
annual report of the Connecticut
Christian Endeavor union has present~
ed itself. and the work of gathering
facts and impressions has progressed.
there has been in my mind a deepen-
lug conviction that. in general. the Eu-
deavor forces in our state. in their
various fields and departments. are
in many particular directions. increas-
ric usefulness and strength is appar-
ent. -
A review of the work for the year
by the state union gives evidence of
continued prosperity and unvarying
sympathy and good fellowship all
along the line.
The semi-annual meetings of the ex-
ecutive committee and honorary vice
presidents. held at Hartford and New
Haven, were well attended. and a most
thorough canvass of the affairs of the
union entered upon.
Among the more important matters
considered was that of the proposed
amendment to our state union consti-
tution. as affecting annual meetings.
As a result of long and earnest con~
slderation. it was deemed advisable to
recommend to the state union the ad-
vlsobility of amending the constitu-
tion. so that. in place of holding. as
under the present management an
annual state meeting. there be bien-
nial meetings. and that on alternating
years there be held at least four dia—
irict meetings. ,
The executive committee also dis.
cussed the (location of finance. and
Iliiil that. under the careful manage-
ment of our finance commitme. the
union is in a fairly good condition.
While most of the unions have re-
sponded to the animal call for a‘conz
tributlun for state expenses. there is
still a number who. for some reason.
have not been heard from. The coni-
mlliec carm-stly recommend to each
local union the adoption of a syste-
matic plan which will assure amplc
funds to carry on all work undertaken.
both by the local unions and the stain
union. We believe this to be true
business policy. and respectfully subv
mil the matter for your consideration.
The annual stats copycnilon has
lawn prominently before all the es»
ccutive committee meetings. also the
transportation of our delegates to and
from the international convention. in
regard to this latter. a most notable
success has been achieved this year by
our railroad manager. Ir. J. il‘. Will-
iams. of ilrisiol. it is not too much
"to any that the success of the Connect-
icut excursion was second to no other
as organised and conducted by Mr.
Williams; and l doom it a privilege in
behalf of the officers of the union. and
the California delegates. to express our
thanks to Mr. Williams for his unilr-
lug devotion in caring for all who ac-
companied him. '
Perhaps one of the most important
and interesting features of our camo-
tive committee mcctlngs has been the
reports of the presidents of local
unions. There seems no abatement in
the interest or failing on to attend
once at the quarterly meetings of the
normal unions rerun-ting. From'per~
sonai mrrcspondeuce l gather that the
local unions are in good condition.
that the thorough organisation of the
past is umintaincd. and such special
work as that of the press. hlokout
committees. sectional inestiugs. etc...
are in successful operation. Before
leaving the matter of the executive
committee meetings of the state union.
i wish again to urge their importance.
No union can afford to miss represent»
tailon at those meetings. either by its
president or his substitute. That this
