Nebraska, was lield in this city last Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Not many of the societies of the district were represented, but those delegates in attendance were earnest workers of the society of Christian Endeavor and were anxious to tret, all the good , ossible from the convention. The delegates were as follows: Margaret Haywood. Ellen Johnson and Agnes Anderson of St. l*aul. Myra Koettger. Misses Ollis. Hastings and Knott, and Messrs. Will Ollis and Victor Hetty of qnE Jessie Vian Litchfield. Nona Clifford of Grand Island. Ruth Cole of Pay lor. and Miss Lee of Cen tral City. Karl Lehmann. Interstate Field Secretary, was unable to attei d owing to severe illness, and Rev. J.R. Salsburv filled his place at Sunday services. Mr. Salsburv is ex-presi dent of the C. E. U. of Nebraska, and presented the state and district work, and outlined the International Convention to be held at Atlantic City the first week of July. Many helpful hints were also given by him for carrying on work in the local society. In his addresses. “Winning the Laurels”. ‘The New American ism”. and - Not a Living. Hut a Life", were thoughts that could but arouse in the youth pure and high ideals. In the address. “Tlie Organization and the Individual”, given Sunday evening, lie developed the truth that the strength of an organization lies in its compactness, and the consecra tion and constancy of its members. Those who were privileged to hear him can surely ffnd much help in the application of the suggestions of this "live wire". Coder the direction of Miss Lee. state secretary, the follow ing district officers were eiecttd: Miss Dearie Needham, president: E. G. Taylor, vice president: Will Ollis of Ord. secretary-treasurer: Miss Nona Clifford. Grand Island, superinten dent of missions. Song service at each session was conducted by Miss Elizabeth Leiniuger: special music was rendered by the Misses Hastings and Knott of Ord. Notwitlistanding the weather, the convention was a splendid success, and the young people are looking forward with pleasure to the next annual convention. * The following resolutions were adopted by the delegates: Madam President and co-workers of the f*th District: We express our appreciation of the splendid and effi cient management of the local society in their careful and thorough arrange ment of the Convention. We are conscious that a large part of the success of this convention has been due to the labors of our district president. Miss Pearl Needham, and we would congratulate her on the success of her work. We express our gratitude to Miss Elizabeth Leininger for her excellent leadership in song, and to those w ho have so kindly rendered special music. We sincerely regret that ill-health has necessstated the atisence of Karl Lehmann. Interstate Field Secretary t'nited Society of Christian Endeavor. We have been delighted with the presence and interest of Rev. J. 11. Salsburv and his untiring efforts in our behalf throughout the entire convention: also with the help and interest of our Methodist friends. Last, but not least, the entertain ment given by the members of your i church lias expressed to us a hospi tality that will be remembered long by the visiting delegates. Signed: Nona Clifford, Makoakkt Haywood, Ruth Cole. v Last week, in mentioning the put ' ting out of business of the slot machines in this city, we gave the credit to the city council, when, as we later learned, they had no hand in the matter, but on complaint of i citizens, City Clerk Howe ordered i them stopped as contrary to law. We Irlicve in giving credit where credit belongs.
