The fourteenth International Conven
tion hold iu Boston was one of tbe grand
est mootings our country has ever had.
From one small society organized In
Williston Chapel, some fourteen years
ago, to thousands of societies to-day.
Fathor Endoavor Clark certainly could
not but feel proud of the vast army of
young people assembled in ths Conven
tion, which has been the outgrowth of
his effort. The one society has grown to
thousands aud spread through every
state in tho Union, aud but six countries
in the world whore the magic words
"Christian Endeavor" are unknown.
Thu city of Boston cannot be excelled for
hospitality ; tho Endeavor seemed to take
possession of the city. All army of C.
E.'s, with white caps and crimson bands,
was scattered throughout the city waiting
to bo questioned by the stranger and
a'l xions to give all information. Some
one remarked, "Riilroad ollicials and
hotel clerks might learn u Ionmoii in cour
tesy from these ever-obligiiig young peo
pie." All the famous historical places, of
which Boston is ho full, were thrown open.
Til roo grend simultaneous meetings
were hold, in Mechanics' Hall aud two
largo tents on Boston Common. Some
of the ablest speakers of the day wore
present, among tlioin Father Clark, 1.
L. Mooilv and (iov. lircciittalL'u. of
Mass., besides hundreds ol others. Any
one with any Christian spirit whatever
could not witness Ibn earnestness and
y.eul which characterized thoso seventy-
iivo thousand C. E.'s without catching
the spirit of I ho meeting. One of the no
ticoable tilings in connection with C. E.'s
is their Christian Fellowship. Denomin
ation mid creeds are unknown in Kndca
vor work. They are all one body work.
ing lor the Master. One speaker said,
"It ever tho world was christianized it
would be through Endeavor work," and
we might add, if ever the prejudice
against other churches is overcome, it
will be through the same Influence.
Hundreds of evangelistlo meetings wore
held by ministers and others attending
the convention. In factories, workshops,
and on the streets ; creeds were lost sight
of; the cry was, "work for the Master."
One of the topics discussed was "good
citizenship." Being a C. E. Implies be
ing a good citizen. A native of India
said, "India never would be brought to
civilization unless the level of Christian
ity was laid upon It," The missionary
was a strong feature. No one could holp
being a missionary to bear the converted
heathen tell of the darkness and Igno
rance of their countries, and the pray
ers for help, and especially to the young,
as being the ones who have the power to
help. While heathen lands need our
help, there is much missionary work to
be done among our own people, by go
ing In person to those who are heedless
and unconcerned, trying to persuade
them to enlist for Christ. A captain of
the life saving service was Introduced at
one meeting and told bow these noble
young people made tbeir hardships
lighter by visits and literature. He
showed how we might "throw out our
life line," and be In the life saving ser
vice. The sociability of C. E's was ably dis
cussed. We cannot do good work un
less social distinction is unknown. We
must be one. We cannot accomplish
anything by getting others into our so
cieties and then in every-day life leave
them to tbeir own devices. A grand
feature was the singing. Songs of praise
were heard from every quarter of the
city; on the street cars, In the stores,
publio gardens, wherever a crowd gath
ered could be heard their voices. At
each meeting thousands were unable to
gain entrance to either the hall or tents,
when open air meetings would be held.
The C. E. society was called a meeting
against tbe wrong, which never adjourns.
Ministers say the society has been more
help In their work than anything ever
done in our churches, training the young
to work ; arousing the older ones.
Many of the delegates lingered after
the convention closed to visit tho notable
places of Revolutionary fame. On Bun
ker Hill's once bloody ground the peo
ple were addressed by an American and
a Britain standing between flags of both
countries. After the addresses tbe flags
were pinned together, showing harmony
and love between the countries. Ply
mouth Rock was visited by thousands,
aud the bicyclists wheeled over Paul
Revere'a route to Lexington.
Altogether the convention was a Brand
Inspiration to all workers, aud patriotism
was wonderfully aroused by visiting the
scenes of so much strife.
Many are already looking forward to
Washington In '96, which promises to be
even greater, in numbers, than the meet
ing of '115. But Washington or any other
city cannot excel the hospitality and wel
come extended by Boston. May the
good work increase until every country
on the globe shall know the eflocta of it,
and be brought to the Master.
