Mr. W. E. Stimpson, Mrs. E. E. Shepard and Mrs. C. D. Savery were the speakers. This was the third service of the kind, the others having been held in the Westminster, and First Presbyterian, Churches. The Committee desire to present their cause in each Christian Endeavor Church before July. <br> A chain of untoward circumstances prevented the entire success of the Japanese Wedding entertainment. It was deserving of a much larger patronage. Mr. McCracken and the young people of the Central Christian Church have been tendered a hearty vote of thanks by the Committee of '97 for their kindness in repeating their entertainment. It was the result of much practice and many hours of hard work. <br>[PHOTO: CENTRAL CHRISTIAN CHURCH. (Built by Christian Endeavorers.)]<br> The Music Committee have contracted for a sixteen-page song pamphlet containing some of the brightest hymns that will be sung at San Francisco. This collection is being prepared especially for the "Inter-mountain Christian Endeavor Rally," and 5,000 copies will be required. <br><br> Good News From Excursion Managers. <br><br> Idaho:-We will send as large a delegation as possible and will let you know as early as we can the probable number. <br> Chicago:-We include Saltair Beach in our itinerary and shall work up a large party for the same. <br> Massachusetts:-Our Massachusetts train, carrying the United Society officers, speakers, etc., will probably arrive in Salt Lake City about noon of Saturday, July 3rd. We want to go with you in the afternoon to Saltair Beach. <br> New Hampshire:-I will endeavor to bring my people into Salt Lake Saturday morning on or before seven o'clock. I am planning on from fifty to seventy-five people. <br> Texas:-I simply want to say that if our plans carry out, some of our Texans will arrive in your city July 3rd. At least one car load of us expect to be in Salt Lake over Sunday. <br> Des Moines, Iowa:-The Endeavorers of Des Moines expect to be in your city July 3rd and 4th. There will be about one hundred and fifty of us at the least. <br><br> |
