The lives of men so slmially blessed, and who are known to so many people the world over, cannot be without latere-' to the public. Dr. Clark, in whose conceit. ited brain the Chrl-lian Kndoavor move meat had its origin, is Htlll In the early prime of life. He was bum Sept- - 1S51.

While lib father, who was a civil engineer, was niinlsteniK to emigrant:- hiifferlns from cholera, in the ear lSo'l. he htni Mif wns afflicted by the contaion and fell a victim to tin uNease. Dr. Clark's mother, who war. a very Dorcas in j;ood works, and from whom he ic celved much of his sterling Christian character as well as his ltteiary abil ity, passed away when the boy was neven years of age. lie was then adopted by an uncle, the Rev. 12. W. Clinic, of Aubiirndale. Mass. Hero and in Claicmont. X. !(., lie spent his early life. Dr. Clark Kiad tiated from Kimball I'nlon Academy in 1S(!9 and fiom Dartmouth College in 173. Three years In Audover Sem inary mado him n fiill-Ildj'.od clerp nian, and he lmniedlatel took charge of the Wllllston Church, Portland.

At this time also ho was made president of the fatted RKV. Socloty, ii KKANCIS 12. CLARK, position which, although it required a great deal of his time nnd energy, yet makes him no llnanclal recompense. The work of th" founder of the move ment In ptopngatlng Christian Kn dcavor Is well known to all tho world. He hns traveled in every state and ter rttoiy lu the Cnlted States, has toured Canada nnd the Hrttlsh provinces, and has made several trips uhioad. in one journey completely circling tho globo. l?ls pen has been as active as his tongue in the work of ChrlstUm Kn deavor, hh would bo natural In a man who, before his diacovery of Christian Kndcnvor, had no little tepiitutlou as ,i writer. In addition to his Christian Kndcnvor writings, Dr. Clark has chronicled his tiavela in a book, "Our Trip Around tho World," and lias re- WsiSlw ' ' I ' Si''n"v prepared another hook on "Tho ,VOrlRln nnd History of Christian Kn- II .Innvnr In Ml T.nnild'1 The whole woild honors Dr. Clark as tho founder and chief promoter of tho Chrlstlnn Kndcnvor society, but us personal friends honor him Htlll .ore for his unlllnchlng Christian laracter, his remarkuhlo modesty ami v ability of spirit.

Although Mr. liner's health Is none of the best, and he N theiefore obliged to limit his platform work, yet ho accomplishes an Immense amount of labor for the cause. Ilelng of n pre-eminently spiiitual natiiie. the evangelistic side of the work has ery strongly appealed to him. and this spirit, plus his ersonality. hns been manifest In all the conventions with wheh he has had to do. The thiid In this trio of loaders Is he whom ono of the trustees hns face tiously called '"the disciple who carries the !).;," although the only fact that glcs him a light to that character Is that he Is treasuier of the 1'nlted Soci ety of Christian Endeavor. The work of Mi. Shaw peculiarly throws him In to contact with all the business In tel e.-ts and secular aflalrs of the gieat organization; et In spite of this he maintains as his most pi eminent chai acteilstlc a stiong spiiitual diameter. In tho early days of Christian Ku deavor, befoio It had become the wot ld-renowned movement that It now Is. we rend of Mr. Shaw as discussing "The Devotional Side of Our Work" In ono of the tirst conventions. It is largely due to his ceaseless watchful ness and business ability that the I'ul ted Soclctj, through Its publishing de partment, Is able to conduct its gi'-ai business without receiving any con tilbutlons or levying a cent of dues upon tho societies. Mi. Shaw Is a fa milial' figure at all the conventions, and his re.-onnnt voice, coupled with his (juick wit. brightly proclaims the poAcr of the young Christian business man. Mr. Shaw was born I'eb. 1 1, 1SG0. at Hallartlvnlc, Mass., where his home now Is. Before coming to his position with the 1'nlted Society he was en gaged in business in Hoston.
