MARACA-PI.!LATBEA CONVENTION
field in .• Stratford Central methodist
Ohara, Last Week
Friday afternoon,' th'e delegates of
the various classes registered re the
church and received 'their, A. 1 3; C.
badges which means the Armour .Clear-
ers .of Christ, There were about
fifty delegates representing abouttwo
thousand Baracas and Philatheas in
the Province ,of Ontario. This is con-
sidered to be excellent progress for
this work as this rriakes only about
three years 'since the work was intro
dried in Ontario.
The union was successful in obtain-
ing many splendid speakers 'for the --
convention, I may mention only
some of the most outstanding. There
-were three speakers from . the United
States. Mrs. I3uckner from North
Carolina perhaps impressed us the
most. She devotes her whole life to.
this work and is General Secretary for
North Carolina 'Union. Her husband
accompanied her and was a very im-
pressive speaker, especially on the sub-
ject of, the Ontario Temperance Act.
It was partly on his suggestion that
an appeal has been sent by the 'Con -
vendee to the Dornini`on Government
asking them to withhold their favours
and privileges to the manufacturersof.

count that so much trouble is caused
to the officers in. U. S. who are in -
forcing this' 0, T. A.
Mr. Claude. ...Ludwig of Lansiu
Mich. was a very impressive speake
He is president of the Michigan Bar
aca Philathea Union. He spoke mos
tly oa the fellowship to be gained b
this method of S. S. class organizat
tion. You can -hardly go into. a tow
or city in, U. S. A. where there is no
a Baraca or Philathea class. Ever
Baraca and Philathea wears their etas
pin and is always welcomed in a•stra
ge city. It has •been the experienc
of Mr. Ludwig' to be traveling in th
Canadian West, he stopped at Cal
gary for the night and was soon arae
by �a Baraca who recognized him b
his pin., He immediately took him to
his home and ever since this maxi. has
been a good friend of his. He was
also in -Palestine and happened to run
across a: Baraca from California. The
BaracaJ-Philathea Organization ex-
tends from Alaska on the North to
New Zealand on the south and is wor-
ld -wide -all -round -the -globe.
Sunday we were fortunate in secur-
ing Mr, Wm. Monk of Syracuse, N.Y.
He is one of the original Baraca Class
formed in Syracuse, N.Y., thirty-three
years ago by Marshall A. Hudson. He
addressed the Sunday service inCentr,al
Methodist church in the evening. He
brought greetings from Mr. Hudson.
Greetings from' the convention were
elegraphed to Mr. Hudson, now an
old man.
From Toronto came our hard work -
ng president of. the Ontario Unien,
Mr. Henry A. Cooper, Mr. H. B. Gor-
don, and his Wife, Dr. E. L;Skinner-
Gordon. There were others worthy of
mention but space does not permit
heir i ames.' There were representa-
ivies,-from Windsor, Torontq, Strat
ord, Winghain, Mitchell.
The meetings started at 9 a.m,, 2 p.
m. and 7.30 p.m. and were very inter -
sting -and instructive. Many prorriin-
nt soloists in the city served in the
njoynient. A huge banquet was'giv-
n in St. Andrews Presbyterian Church
n Friday evening. The room, tables,
tc. were beautifully decorated in the
Iass colors, blue and white. Toasts,
heir replies, and musical selections
onstituted the interesting.
:program.
Saturday afternoon a photograph
was taken of the convention delegates.
After this, about twenty cars supplied
y the Chamber of Commerce, took.
he visitors on a sight-seeing trip .over.
he whole city and was much enjoyed.
Now, I .suppose many have read the
bove but wonder what this Baraca-
hilathea work really is. Let me ex -
lain. This movement is iuterdenom-
national and thus encourages fellow -
hip and justly is called the ideal for
unday School organized classes,
It was started by Marshall A. Hud -
on about thirty-three • years ago for
he purpose of, getting young men and
oung women abdve the ages of'eight-
en years into the church. He noticed
.
o many of the young seen and Wozn-
a of these ages who were, not in the
Much, The idea is to make `the'clas-
es so energetic, helpful in, doing ail
ood things, make is so attractive that
e people will want to join thein.
his plan has been so successful that
om that one class, over a million
eople have been brought to Christ.
The' reason that this organization is
eat is because it trains the young
ople' for leadership, interests them
Christiain work, and helps them in
hristian fellowship. Many mission-
ies, hospitals' and poor people are
tirely supported by funds from the
araca-Philathea Union.
Thus we have the Young Men "Bar-
es" from Baraeheus in 2 Chz'on, 26126
caning blessed. Six years after the
relation 'of the Baracas, started the
ter organization among the "women
hilatheas", meaning lovers of truth.
heir object is to win souls for Christ
d train there. for service. The plat -
ten is, "Young.rnen atid..young worn-:
at work -for young men and young
men all standing by the Bible school
d the church," Our motto is "We
1' do all things through Christ who
engtheneth us." Phil. 4:13.
Our text is "Let's go up and possess
land for we are able,"Num, 13:30.
All these class members wear their
ss pin, always, and have many sec -
emblems, such as a particular class
ud'clasp known only to Baracas and
Philatheas.

Fear He is Drowned
After an all -day search by the police
and other parties the whereabouts of
James Overholt is still unknown. All
afternoon four boats 'dragged the har-
bor at Goderich, the full length of the
commercial dock, but in vain. Over-
holt and his son were trimming grain
on the boat and finished about 12 o'-
clock on Monday night, the father told
his son to go on home and he would
follow later. That is the last that has
been definitely seen of him. He is re-
ported to have been seen walking ori
the dock in the morning about -6 o' -
check. The first that the family knew
that anything was wrong was when
Mrs. Overholt brought his breakfast
down to him this morning and was
unable to find him. No reason for
the disappearance can be given, as Mr.
Overholt was of good health and was
always in the best of spirits. It is pre-
