Many Christian Endeavor conven

of June, July and August. Some of
them will be great and have attrac

clude splendid addresses by eminent
speakers, rousing mass meetings, in

Fourteen State conventions will come

says: "It is difficult, if not impossible,
to over estimate the importance to
the cause of such conventions Chris

over the world. None have been so
large, none more inspiring, none
more influential. They seem indig

and they always bear rich fruit
I have attended such conventions in
many parts of Europe, Asia and
Africa, as well as in North and South
America, and these are some of the
fruits I have seen grow on conven

Christian fellowship: (2) a new vis
