Christian Endeavor Society Girdles
the World.
Greatest Religious Organization tr.
History, With Over 3,500,000 Members?Rev.
Fmncis E. Clark
Its Founder.
Portland, Me.?Founded in 1881, by
Rev. Francis Edward Clark in Willston
Congregational church, Portland, the
Young People's Society of Christian
Endeavor bas increased from on# society
to over 72,000 societies that thrive
In every corner of the earth. Its roll
of membership has groan from a list
of 67 to an enrollment of over 3,600,000.
Twenty-nine years ago it was
known as an innovation In a parish
of Portland.
Mr. Clark for years had faced the
demand of the age for religious youth.
He had studied the problem from
every side and had sought information
from all known sources concerning the
various plana that had matured from
time to time in Christian history for
developing the religious life and activity
of young people. He grew despondent
of ever producing anything
new and effective; but yet in all humble
simplicity he made an attempt and
It proved to be the most successful in
the history of Christendom. Its success
Is due to the sincerity and able-1
UUOO VI HO 1VUUUCI, BUU mo UOUM*?v
ness of its purpose. Mr. Clark, although
unconscious of it at the time,
la a man chosen by Providence for a
life career, an apostle In a movement
which is essentially progressive and
destined to pass on through hlstoty an
active and far reaching force In the
affairs of the Christian world.
In Dr. Clark we are brought face to
face with a man who is a revelation
as far as executive ability and versatility
are concerned. He has been
many things to many men. He has
been a pastor and leader, an organiser
and a diplomat, an advocate and defender
of young people, a gentleman
and a Christian. His gentleness has
made him great and his humility has
>? -v: iv*
' g?' v. Rev. Frspcis Clark.
saved him from the dangers to which
pride and honor are ever exposed. As
an editor and author he has been voluminous
and he has made copy not
only for his own official paper and
publishers, but for numerous editors
and magazines. He has written for
his readers wherever he has traveled
In this and other lands. In his con
nectlon with Christian Endeavor he
believes that Providence has opened
a way before him and bidden him to
walk in divinely-ohosen paths. Thli
has glvon him courage and zeal.
Remarkable as has been his success,
twice so has been his spirit of gener
oslty and self-sacrifice. Quitting a
Portland pastorate, he has never received
compensation in any form from
the United Society which he fotftided
and of which he is head and to which
be has given more than a quarter century
of service. He has supported
himself by his literary work and even
when traveling over the world, which
he has done as have few other men,
he has paid his own expenses by writing
for the magazines and other aim
liar work.
Largely because of Dr. Clark's personal
efforts, made during tours In the
various parts of the world, the Christian
Endeavor movement has become
world wide. Dr. Clark Is a quiet, selfcontained
man. He Is not a great
speaker, and his leadership of young
people depends upon personality
rather than upon voice and manner.
He has administrative ability to a
marked degree, and has been able be
cause of it to Burround himself in his
work with other men who became
prime favorites with the young people,
although Dr. Clark has always been
their ideal. Dr. Clark is a native of
I Aylmer, Quebec, is 59 years old and
has traveled around the world four
times in the interest of the Christian
Endeavor movement.
The society has taken Its placa
among the permanent organisations
and Institutions of religion. It has
taken hold of the problem of training
the youth as no-society In the history
of Christendom has ever done before.
It has toiled through a few years and
now has reached a stage In its history
where it has nothing to do but grow
and expand unhindered and free. Dr.
: Clark is still at its head and the great
work which he is accomplishing is re
markable.

Large business organizations bare ?
rome to stay. We cannot go back to 1
old conditions. We must meet world
competition. Large concerns can ?ro- ,
duce goods at lower cost than small ,
ones. Germany favors large corpora- S

administration is to dissolve
the great organizations and make
them smaller, which is a backward
step. There should be no limit to a

Prejudices against corporations p
merely because they are big, perhaps,
must be done away with. They give
labor better returns. Tbey cheapen
product and thus benefit tbe consumer.
They give opportunities to small
investors who get returns otherwise p
unattainable. They employ able e
young men who have no capital at Q

In plaoe of the Sherman law it is r

The law should be made so clear, f|

The wall was finished In Z2 days 1 c August
and September.
PLACE?Jerusalem and vicinity.
There were enemies within the Jewish
church. Some of the nobles and
richer men had been oppressing tbelr
poorer brethren who were working at
great sacrifice In rebuilding the walls.
No wages were paid for this work, so
that many were thus reduced to the
direst straits to support themselves
and their families, and pay the taxes
exacted by the Persian government.
Their misfortunes were brought to a
climax by the condition of hostilities,
which put an end to trade, and threatened
town and country with ruin. It
was Impossible to ootain regular employment,
and prices bad gone up.
Thosa who had a little property mortgaged
their homes; and In this way a

fields vineyards, and dwellings, passed

dome, baring no means to pay their
creditors, sold their children as slaves.
The hungry ones were threatening. If
the grain was not given to keep them
fro mstarvatlon, they would take it by
violence, or surrender the city to Its
enemies. The taxes for the Persian
government were very heavy and exacting.
The chief officers farmed out
the collection of the taxes, both in
money and In the fruits of the land.
These under officers were the same as
those called publicans in trie New
Testament. They were required to
pay over to their superiors the exorbitant
sum fixed by law, and depended
I for their profit on what they could
make by fraud and extortion. They
overcharged, brought false charges of
smuggling to extort hush-money,
seized upon property In case of dispute
and held It until their levy was
paid, forbade the farmer to reap bis
standing crops until they had wrung
from him all that his penury could
produce. They were universally feared,
hated, and despised. No money
known to hare come from them was
received for religious uses.
Now these, who professed religion
and lived heathenism, were the greatest
injury to the Cause for which
Nebemiah bad come, it was against
such as these that Jesus launched the
sharpest lightning of his "Wceunto
you, hypocrites." They are traitors to
I their country, their church and their
God. Jhe church 6tands for the highest
expression of man's life. A church
represents the permanent spiritual
Ideals. It embodies the loftiest human
aspirations; a nation's best expression
of Its religious sentiment represents
that nation at its best. Now
whosoever In the name of the church,
as a member of It. does actions contrary
to Its whole spirit, is the greatest
enemy of the kingdom pf Gcd.
Nehemlah overcame these enemies.
He changed them from enemies to
friends. He rebuked them with burning
Indignation. He told them to their
face the wrong they were doing. He
persuaded them to repent and undo
the wrongs they had done:' "I pray
rou. let us leave off this usury. Restore.
I pray you. to tbem, even this
day. their lands, their vineyards, their
ollveyards. and their houses, also the
hundredth part of the money, and ot
the corn, the wine, and the oil. that
ye exact of them." Then said they,
"We will restore them, and will require
nothing of them; so will we do
as thou sayest." He set them a good
example. He refused to take the usual
salary of the governor. He bore all
the expenses of his retinue. His noble
conduct made the names of these oppressors
show black as the smoke of
the pit.
One of the greatest powers for reforming
abuses Is publicity. Let every
man's name bo on his deed, on the
work he does, on everything he says,
on all that he owns. Let the Baloon
keeper's name be on the drunkard he
made. On all the adulterated food,
the dishonest work, the sweat-shop
ruins of health, the unhealthy tenements?let
the name of the doers of
these evils be written In blazing letters,
like the fiery letters that flamed
from the barrels of rum on which the
demons bad written tbe evils it would
cost, and few would dare face this
publicity cure. Nebemiah shamed
these false hearted leaders into repentance
and virtue.
There is a continual temptation toI
day for Christian workers to give up
their time and strength to discussing
the many theories and unsettled questions
which are continually confronting
them. All sorts of men say all
sorts of things till it seems as if these
clouds were obscuring tbe whole continent
of Truth. This Is true of many
other things besides religion. Now
the way to escape from these snares
Is to attend to our duties, to go to
work for the Cause of Christ with all
our hearts, to give ourselves to helping
save our fellow men. both body
and soul. For then we will use tbe
essential things by which our work Is
accomplished. We thus test the working
theories by using them. Those
principles that bring results are the
ones we want. We find out what they
are worth through testing them by
what they will do. Working for Christ
and for his children is our safeguard.
Nehemiah wr.s asked to leave his
work for personal safety. This was
too base an appeal. Nehemiah Indignantly
exclaimed. "Should such a man
as I flee?"
Tbe very baseness of the nppeal
opened Nehemlah's eyes to the fart

a mere tool of Sanbal'.at bribed to ensnare
him. That any one could 1mfhnt

fear, touched Nehemlah's heart to the
quick. It was an Insult that the governor
could only put into the hands of
God to wipe out. But in the end the
wal! was built
In proportion as society becomes
enlightened, personality acquires Influence.
It Is harder to get away from the

The venerable rector of St. Luke's

averse to expressing them. Recently,
unknown to blm, the vestry decided
to have the next supply of coal for the

the one commonly used. When the
coal was delivered the rector, seeing
the drayman making what he thought
was a mistake in its disposal, interposed
and in no uncertain terms bade
the darky place the coal in the cellar
always used for that purpose.
The senior warden several days
later was much annoyed to discover
that his orders had been disregarded
and that the coal was in the same old
cellar. With wrath in his eye he complained
to the coal dealer. The latter
declared that he had carefully explained
to the drayman where to put
the coal, so to settle the matter the
darky was called up.
"8am, you black rascal," thundered

CUTICURA OINTMENT HEALED
BAD SORE ON LIMB
"Some time ago I was coming up
sqme steps when the board crushed
under me like an egg shell, and my
right limb went through to the knee,
and scraped he flesh off the bone
Just Inside and below the knee. I
neglected It for a day or two. then It
began to hurt me pretty badly. I put
balsam fir on to draw out the poison,
but when I had used it a week, It hurt
so badly that I changed to ointment.
That made it smart and burn
so badly that I couldn't use it any
more, and that was the fourth week
after I was hurt
"Then I began to use Cutlcura Ointment
for the sore. It stopped hurting
immediately and began healing right
away. It was a bad-looking sore before
Cutlcura Ointment healed it, and
I suffered so I couldn't sleep from two
days after I fell until I began using
Cutlcura Ointment.
"Cutlcura Soap Is the best soap I
ever saw. I have used all kinds of
soap for washing my face, and always
It would leave my face smarting. I
had to keep a lotion to stop the smart,
no matter how expensive a soap I
used. I find at last In Cutlcura Soap
a aoap that will clean my race ana
leave no smarting, and I do not have
to use any lotion or anything else to
ease It. I believe Cuticura Soap is the
best soap made." (Signed) Mrs. M.
E. Falrchlld, 805 Lafayette St., Wichita,
Kan., May 8, 1911. Although
Cuticura Soap and Ointment are Bold
by druggists and dealers everywhere,
a sample of each, with 32-page book,
will be mailed free on application to
'Cuticura,'* Dept. 22 K, Boston.
