The delegates were served a bounti-

llaubury chapter. The tables were
prcitlly decorated with dogs. and at
cach place a souvenir post chrd with a.

sisted of cold boiled ham, meat loaf.

Asrsoon us the evening session of
the session closed! the delegates hur-
i‘li'd to the White street station. where
a special train. which left at one. was
waiting to take them as far as South
Norwalk. a convenient junction point
from which a majority of the delegates
could reach home that night.
Atterneod Session.
The principal address of the after-
noon was made by the Rev. W. ’l‘. '1‘.
Duncan, is former pastor of the First
Methodist Episcopal church iii South
Norwalk, now residing at New Ro-
chelle. who took for his subject, ”The
Glory of Youth.’ The speaker covered
every phase of his subject with a fire
which could not but impress upon the
delegates the earnestness with which
he entered upon the duties before
llilil.
"The glory of youth is strength."
was the phrase used In the opening.
and was the test upon which the
strong discourse which followed was
built. All men who have achieved
were those who had been pushed on by
the energy which belongs to youth.
Some of our grand" artists and must-
cians had been used of this ener-
KY. and had doll eved‘greatness in ear-
ly years. John Snmmerileld. a great
preacher, died at the age of 29 years:
Mozart, the great musician, after elec-
.tribiug the musical world with his
work. died at-35. .
‘Thene are some." the speaker told
the delegates. “who try to handicap
this vigor. There seems to he a ten-
dency to cut down action. We become
turned down. tsl’it softly'. get aristocrat-
ic, and sometimes. i think. totally good
for nothing. I have a choir of children
in my church who sing at various ser-
vices. There are sixty or seventy of
them. But when they come down the
aisle of the church they can hardly be
heard. I continually tell them to sing
iout, to make a noise, Yet these same

ded. as the members of the Junior
[fissile took their place in the gallery.
"The Pope was afraid of Martin Lu-
ther‘ because he spoke out. and had en-
ergy to act. England was appalled at
the energy of“ John Wesley. Why?
Simply because the people did‘ not
know how to use power.
"1 well remember how alarmed the
people of Brooklyn became when
electric cars were first introduced into
that city. They were afraid of a pow-
er which is now one-of our greatest
blessings. Many have become frigh-
tened at lightllilig and hidden under
their beds. This Is the same relation
of some people toward power. As 19p-
worth longhorn, It is our business to
reckon with power, when we find it as
a nominal thing. Tile Bible. is a very
hand book of power, a chapter of dy-
namics, a magazine 0i might.

cle and strenuoslty. The men he ('llllflt‘

so much as n iadyllko lunil.
“As Epworth Magners, We have a
heritage of powcr. some people haw
said that politicians like the Standard
Oil politicians should be active, while
the president of the United Statcs
should sit with folded builds. Thank
God our president is not that kind of
a man."
In closing the speaker said it was
for the. Epworih Ileagncrs to Work
hard and with cncrgy, and to use ov-
cry ounce of thcir vigor in the cause

you and i would nssuil our brolllter. we
must ho willing to go to the extreme

LITTLE TARIFF REVISION.
Chairman Payne Will Not Have Com-
mittee Meeting During Recess.
' WASHINGTON, June i.~The fact
that Chairman Payne, of the House
Committee on Ways and Means. which
is to Inquire into the subject of tar-
iff revision. does not intend to call his
committeetogether during the recess
of Congress is attributed to a desire
not to encourage tariff revisionists. .
“All that will be done," said Mr.
Payne yesterday. " is that the execu-
tive departments, notably 3: Trees-
ury Department, will be as , to col-
lect certain data in regard to the tariff
schedules and have the information
‘ready in time for the next regular ses-
sion of Congress."
The administration program now, it
is asserted. is that Secretary Taft, in
the event. of his nomination and elec~
tion shall convene e. spa al session of
the 61st Congress imm lately after
his Inauguration to take up the subject
of tariffvrevislon. in the event that a
Democrat is elected next fall, Presi-
