Dr. B. Blake of Chi cago, In an address before a con vention of Methodist Episcopal Sun day s-hools of the Columbia river conference in Spokane, which was at tended by delegates from all the northwestern states. "The Methodist Episcopal church Is facing a serious situation," Dr. Blake added. "The net gain In mem bers was only 41,337 in 1910, an In crease of about 1.2 per cent. This convinces me that the old methods of evangelism are not producing results. We have never had more evangelists than at the present time and they have never accomplished so little as now. The weakness of modern evan gelism Is that It makes Its main ap peal to adults, when It Is a matter of fact that 85 per cent of all conver sions are under 18 years of age. The church must make its appeal to youth and the earlier this Is made the better the result will be for the the church." The New Boston Store Funeral of Edwin Long.
