A stirring address was de- livered by the Rev. E. C. Gamble (Beu- C. lah), Aberaman, on "Christian Endeav- our and the Christian Union of to-dav." He remarked that the demands upon the Christian Endeavour now were greater than in the days of its founder. The problems of life were greater, and the call for pleasure was more pronounced. There was not. a better movement in the Christian Church to-day than the C.E. It had not failed in its purpose, and it would fill up the void that the churches feared, but failed to fill. Where the movement had declined, in many cases that could be traced to a decline in church membership, and also to anti- pathy shown by ministers and officers of the The C.E. was adaptable to the legitimate requirements of the day. Uuion ism was the spirit of the age. Isol- ation was out of date.—Mr. G. Whittock gave all address on "The power of the C.E. movement." He commended the ntotto of the late Earl of Shaftesbury, I love, I sei-ve," as a suitable one for C.B. members. There was a scope for the energies of young people in the church of .to-day.-Tliere was a free discussion on the addresses, the following taking part: Messrs. Longman, T. A. James and L. Hardinge (Aberaman).—Much regret was felt at the announcement that. the Rev. J. Whittock and family are shortly leav- ing the town. Their good work and in- terest in Christian effort will be greatly missed. It was a most stimulative meet- ing. and should prove an impetus to the C.E. movement in Aberdare and district.
