Great Evening Session Red and white uniforms, banners, badges, fans, and real pep filled the Christian Endeavor Convention Hall as the delegates gathered for last evening's meeting yesterday. Cheers and songs from the big county delega tions and some from the small ones, too. began even before the doors opened and later as the speakers and the well-known figures of Secretary Shaw, of Daniel Poling, of Pof. Rode heaver and others appeared upon the platform they were greeted with cheers and applause. "Rody" was forced to stand silent for some moments before he could open the song service—and it takes a lot to keep "Rody" quiet when there is singing to be done. He delighted the 1 delegates by presenting them with copies of the newest hymn, the official New York Union song. County spirit was evident when Allegheny county sang a prohibition chorus which they had Just composed to the tune of the favorite convention song, "Brighten the Corner Where You Are.',' F. j Kevin Wlest, cornet soloist, rendered i a cornet solo to the accompaniment of the orchestra and the great chorus chcir. Later the song service took | a decidedly patriotic turn and the Na tional anthem was sung amid storms of appkiuse. The devotional exercises were con ducted by the Rev. Henry W. A. Han- 1 son, of Messiah Lutheran Church. The , Chorus Choir then sang Handel's "Hallelujah Chorus" led by Prof. Frank A. McCarrell. The Rev. C. E. Scheaffer of Philadelphia, State vice president, presided. At the conclusion of the anthem the Rev. Wm. R. Hall, of Philadel phia, Presbyterian superintendent of Young People's Work, was introduced and spoke on "The Right Foundation" < telling where Endeavor workers should stand. At the conclusion of Rev. Hall's address the Rev. E. E. Curtis, general chairman of the Harrisburg conven tion committee, made the announce ments for the meetings of Thursday. L B. Harnish, of Carlisle, State super intendent of the World's Purity Fed eration, made a brief talk upon the work and aims of his organization. A number not on the program at this time called forth the most tumultuous applause of the convention. General Secretary Shaw of the United Society was introduced and he told briefly of his long journey, just com pleted, in which he visited five of the greater State C. E. conventions. In all of them he found results greatly exceeding expectations, "but," he said, "not one exceeded the Pennsylvania convention in size and power." At this, vord the convention burst into an up roar. Silencing the delegates. Secre tary Shaw continued, telling of the re cent contest between the six leading Christian Endeavor States to secure the greatest numbers of subscriptions to the National C. E. paper, the C. E. World. Two banners were awarded to the winners of this contest. Raps Nonvoting Citizen In the most inspiring address of the great convention the Rev. Dr. Poling National Citizenship superintendent of the United Society of C. E., and a for mer candidate for Governor of Ohio, on the Prohibition ticket, soundly rapped the careless citizen who is too lazy to vote. According to Mr. Pol ing such men should be disfranchised or vigorously punished. Mr. Pollng's address was received with storms of applause and the entire convention by a rising vote pledged itself and the young people of Penn sylvania to stay true until the evil of alcohol is removed from the land.

Flags Flash to Nation's Hymn If you had a sneaking suspicion that the great gathering of Christian En-1 deavorers of Pennsylvania, in session for their State convention, aren't fully alive to the patriotic preparedness idea that is sweeping through these United States, that suspicion would have been emphatically dispelled last evening when "Old Glory" and the Christian Endeavor flag were unfurled together. The flags were suspended over the big hall, the American flag above the Endeavorer's flag beneath, and both were picked out in electric lights. For the first time last evening when the auditorium was crowded to the doors the great gathering swung into "The Star Spangled Banner." Suddenly the hall was darkened and high over head the two flags rolled in waves of electric light. The cheering that greeted the flags nearly suggested a Chicago con vention. The flags had been installed by the Harrisburg Light and Power Company which Incidentally also loaned the committee in charge the use of sixteen or more electric fains to help keep the big hall cool.

Dr. Poling Addresses Little Folk; Compliments Them on Work A banquet was held at Harris Street United Evangelical Church at 5 o'clock last evening In the Interest of the Jun ior and Intermediate work. C. C. Culp, State superintendent of Junior department, presided. One hundred and sixteen Endeavor workers were In attendance. The Rev. Daniel A. Poling, presi dent's associate o fthe United Society, Boston, made a few remarks. He said In part: "This is one of the largest State conventions ever held In the his tory of the State. There are 3,500 delegates registered now. I came from California, New York, Colorado, Texas, Kansas, Indiana and we are having the largest conventions In the history of the Union. The Junior Department must have a growing place." Mr. Culp, then introduced the fol lowing Junior and Intermediate work ers of the State: Miss Wiggins, of Al legheny; Miss Emily Edwards. Har risburg; the Rev. R. L. Meisenhelder, Harrisburg; Miss Toman, Indiana county; Mr. Klegg, Philadelphia; Miss! Erder, Northampton county, and Mr.! Spencer, Allegheny county. SHOP MEE7TIXGS The evangelistic services at noon yesterday were a big success. About two hundred persons from all parts of the State went to tho different shop meetings and rendered songs. The managers from the various factories attended and welcomed the.many dele gates to return for other such meet ings. Dr. J. Sala Leland secured speakers for noonday services which were prominent men of Pennsylvania. Homer Rodeheaver and Dr. Sala Le land addressed the Blough meeting. Many girls attended and the service was very much appreciated. Dr St. Clair made a powerful address at the J. H. McFarland printery. Many songs were enjoyed and much appreciated. C. E. NOTES The committee largely in evidence was the reception committee, W. M. | Malley, chairman. The large number ! of young ladies, dressed in white, j wearing their neat white caps with | the word "Reception" in red letters and the white badge with the same word, were seen everywhere. They; could be seen after every train ar- j rived guiding many delegates to the! convention hall and tlieir bright smile and pleasant words of greeting did much to make a stranger feel at home and many expressions of appreciation ! were heard. The young men were the hardest working persons about, carry ing the luggage of the delegates and directing them to their place of enter tainment. Nobly did the Boy Scouts, under Garfield McAllister, and the | Boys' Brigade assist In this work. They | were In evidence everywhere. One j scout carried .a heavy suitcase for a ! lady delegate who did not care to ride In the car to Sixth street above Wood- j bine; another to Berryhlll street be yond Sixteenth. Did they accept a "tip"? You ought not to ask that) question. The principles of their or ganization prohibit thU and the Boy Scouts live up to the principle every time. At the meeting last night held in the Auditorium the Christian En deavor choir gave several special mu- j slcal numbers. Among these was a national song and every member of j the choir waved a beautiful little flag of red and blue to the air of the na- i tlonal song, the "Star-Spangled Bai.- j ner." At the top of the platform upon ! which the choir sits is a beautiful flag j of red, white and blue electric lights,! beneath which are the letters "C. E.", i also in the red. white and blue lights. Turning out the lights in the audi torium. and the melodious words of the national song being heard with the members of the choir waving flags, j the effect was very beautiful indeed, i This wonderful scheme was worked out by J. Frank Palmer, who Is chair- j man of the music committee. The New York State Christian En- j deavor Boclety has adopted "Make Jesus King" as their campaign and convention song. This is a new song and has not as yet been published In any of the Rodeheaver song books. The Rev. Dan A. Poling, associate president of the Young People's So ciety of Christian Endeavor, tells the | incident concerning his little son, who, : when about to be placed upon the | operating table, asked; "Papa, will you stay through?" He so promised. | After the anesthetic had been adminis j tered the surgeon told Mr. Poling he j might retire If he chose; but he kept his promise, "Yes," to his son, whose first question was "Papa, did you stay [through?" The song entitled "Will You Stay Through?" has become popular. "We are all a-goin' to sing and j shout some of these days in glory" Is | one of the popular Southern melodies rendered by "Rody" last night. He | sang many of them, which created I much enthusiasm. Tho Rev. C. E. Schaeffer, D. D., ! state vice-president, Philadelphia, says: 1 "This is the hottest place on the globe. Harrisburg and not Washington is re sponsible for the weather conditions." Almost every county has its distinc tive badge. The Philadelphia delega tion has one that presents the Liberty Bell bearing the C. E. monogram and | supported by a blue and yellow ribbon from a German silver bar stamped {with the word "Philadelphia." Each iof the Philadelphia districts has also a special badge, either a ribbon or an arm band. The Allegheny people have I a long red streamer badge with the jword "Allegheny" in black. This dele gation also has special red and white uniforms. An Interesting badge Is that of Fayette county. It Is of white ribbon with the words "County of Fayette" printed in black one below the other. The initial and final letters are much larger than the rest and are red, forming the C. E. monogram. Lehigh's Is red and white. Adams has chosen blue and white. Washington !has a long ribbon badge in the same colors. A third blue and white badge is that of Westmoreland. Lycoming has a long red and white ribbon. Lu zerne delegates wear hat bands of red marked with the name of their county In silver and with the letters C. E. E. probably indicating the Su premacy of that county In expert En deavor work. Beaver county has an official badge of blue wjth the name of the county and "Harrisburg 1916" printed upon it in gold. They also have white hats with blue and gold ribbons and blue and white badges with the county name. Blair county has a bold and striking black and white ribbon badge. Dives. Pomeroy & Stewart have kindly fitted up a fine rest room in the anteroom of the convention hall for the benefit of the delegates. JUNIOR WORK OF BIG INTEREST Hundreds of Happy Children Receive Instruction From Noted Workers Hundreds of happy children's faces greet the visitor as he enters the great, cool auditorium of Market Square Church for any session of Pennsylva nia's first Junior Christian Endeavor contention. Scattered here and there are a few older folks—junior workers —but mostly they are boys and girls <jf eight to fourteen years of age. But their youth does not make them any the less able to do the work of the con vention. Perhaps even more interest is shown in their conferences than in those of the grown-ups. Certainly there is never any delay when the leader calls upon the delegates to tell of the work of their own societies or to explain some successful method of work. From all over the auditorium come childish voices telling their story of worjt done or planned. Some of them come up to the platform and ex hibit diagrams, charts and special ap paratus that their home societies use for arousing interest and increasing the efficiency of the work. In the opening song service this morning their voices rang out clearly and strongly as they sang their favor ite hymns. Then Miss Mlldreth J. Haggard, Junior specialist of the United Society of Christian Endeavor, was introduced for a general confer ence with the juniors. She told a story of Christian Endeavor in Central Africa and about the great change made there in the last few years. Then while they stood for a little rest the boys and girls repeated their Christian Endeavor pledge, the same one which the former cannibals or way-oft Africa have taken as tlicir guide. In the conference hour Miss Hag sard first took up the work of the junior committers. Many of the youth ful delegates stood and told of the work of their kwn societies. An auto mobile contest was described by one little girl. Cut-out trees and wheels and railroad trains and all sorts of things were produced and their uses described by the boys and girls. Then the work of the quiet hour depart ment was explained to the youngsters, Miss Haggard using illustrations taken from the daily life of a child. When the conference turned to the '■ matter of socials the delegates 'kot quite excited and stood up in their seats so that they could see their com- ' rades as they spoke. They derided the! suggestion of State Superintendent! Culp that the purpose of socials was to cat. Tag was suggested as a lively i game. But they became quickly seri- I ous in a moment of silent prayer be fore Dr. Shaw, of Boston, began his address. In this address Secretary Shaw spoke particularly to the juniors and told , them many things which they listened ] to eagerly while their small fingers strove to take notes. The Rev. S. B. Vandersall, of Ohio, also interested them with his Bible stories about John the Baptist. The benediction was then pronounced and the juniors scattered to make the final preparations for their big display in th 6 main conven tion hall this afternoon. Evening Session With enthusiasm and earnestness quite equal to that of the 'big" conven tion meeting in the Chestnut Street Auditorium, the Junior Kndeavorers of Pennsylvania opened their first evening session in the Market Square Presbyterian Church last night. C. C. Culp, State Junior Superintendent, presided. The opening devotions were conducted by Rev. Q. T. Schaum of the Harris Street U. E. Church. After music and the announcements of the evening Miss Grace Reimer, of Easton, State missionary superintendent, de livered a short address to the children. The address of the evening was de livered by the Rev. Daniel A. Poling, president's associate of the United So ciety of C. E. He delighted the boys and girls by his graphic presentation. His theme was the familiar one "Be Sure Your Sins Will Find You Out" and he illustrated his talk by many stories that appealed to the young ster*. At the conclusion of the ad dress there was a brief musical serv ice and the benediction was pro noun'ced by the Rev. George Schaum. Big Crowds Attend the Great Moose Carnival Last night's crowds at the Leavitt- Taxier Shows. United, which are con ducting the Moose carnival at Fourth and Seneca streets, gave ample testi mony of the popularity that the shows have won in tho first half of the week. Captain Herbertlno the chief trainer at the animal show, was a resident of Harrisburg back in 1909, when he had t charge of the animals In the big zoo conducted at that time at the Arena. Since that time he has been spending his -winters in Harrlbburg, while the various shows with which he has been connected have been quartered else where, rejoining these shows when : they start out on their summer cir ! cults. The Moose have set aside to-night as "Preparedness Night" and a percent : age of all moneys taken in at the big carnival will be set aside by them in forwarding the preparedness move ment, which Is the big question that is ; absorbing the attention of people all i over the country to-day. If the crowds ' of the past few nights may be taken as a criterion, the last half of the week will result in a record-breaking attend once for the week. The carnival will close Saturday night at 12 o'clock.— Advertisement. HUNT SHARK THAT FATALLY CUT TWO [Continued From First Page] | bathing. Even at Coney Island pre | cautions were taken against a visit of i the shark. The tragedy yesterday was all the more startling because it oc curred In waters sixteen miles from the ocean. Matawan creek is a tidewater stream about BO feet wide and from 8 to 15 feet deep. It empties Into Rarltan bay. The mouth of the creek is at Keyport. The shark, to get there from the Atlantic ocean, had to round Sandy Hook, cross through the lower bay Into Raritan bay at the southern end of Staten Island. 16 Miles from Sea The first person who saw the 9-foot shark yesterday was Captain Thomas B. Cottrell, of Keyport, an he started up the creek about noon. Fifty or more persons were bathing, Captain Cottrell says, and he warned them. About the same time a number of men on a drawbridge saw the shark glide by. Captain Cottrell hurried up the creek in his motorboat to warn bathers, most of whom left the waters immediately. The others ig nored the warning because they did not believe an attack by a shark prob able sixteen miles from the open sea.

Haggard—Miss Haggard, 1 the recently appointed National Junior Superintendent for the United Society j of Christian Endeavor has a brilliant ] record as a C. E. worker. For over I six years she has used practically all jof her spare time in traveling and j speaking for the young people. She | bar also taken many leaves of ab ! sence from her work as an analytical chemist in the University of Minnesota and has gone to other States for the j purpose of attending conventions and j conferences. Walter D. Howell, i formerly field secretary of the Minne [ sota union said of her: "She has been I the genius of Christian Endeavor in i Minnesota for half a dozen years, the I indispensable one." Miss Haggard is j a graduate of the University of Minne sota with both academic and scientific degrees. Her popularity as a confer- I ence leader has steadily grown and | she is a prominent figure in many State gatherings. At the present time she is conducting her work mainly by correspondence but the U. S. C. E. hopes to be able to place her in the field for undivided service by January, 1917. Miss Haggard is one of the lead ers in the work of the Junior Conven tion of Pennsylvania and also appears on the program of the big convention. Dr. William Shaw: Dr. Shaw, gen eral secretary of the United Society of Christian Endeavor, who is one of the speakers at conference leaders in the great Christian Endeavor convention is, next to Dr. Francis E. Clark, the founder of the organization, the best ! beloved and the best known of all the | millions of Endeavorers of the world. ; Way back in the first years of the ! movement Dr. Clark recognized the 1 ability of Dr. Shaw, who was at that ]time a member of Dr. Clark's church in South Boston. In 1886 Dr. Shaw was selected for the position of ireas urer of the U. S. C. E. Later he be came advertising manager of the Golden Rule, the first Christian Endea vor paper. In 1889 he became publi cation manager of the U. S. C. E., oc cuplng this position for nine years. After a term as the business manager of the Christian Endeavor World he was chosen, in 1906, as the fifth gener al secretary of the United Society. Dr. Shaw has written many Christian Endeavor books and helps, and has traveled extensively both in this country and abroad in the interests of the work.
