Christian Citizenship Meet Conceived in 1882 Father of Great World Conference Which Opens in Portland Today, the I.ate Ir. T. 1. Stevenson, Lived to Ileavllxe Dream. THE Idea of calling leading Chris tlans together In a World's Chris tian Citizenship Conference was orig inal with the late Rev. Dr. T. P. Ste venson. of Philadelphia. Pa., who first proposed the plan in 1SS2 and lived long enough to be an active factor In the early preparations for the second worms Christian Citizenship Confer ence. C7 . " """uara was tor many vears corresponding secretary of the NationaJ -association. lie made a prac ncai start Dy obtaining & small fund with which to send the Christian Statesman, the official organ of the National Reform Association, to in fluential Christians in all parts of the world. In this publication Dr. Steven son voiced his Idea of a world move ment for the extension or the Christian principles of civil government In non- uarisnan tanas. In 1S98. 16 vears later. Dr. Sit.v.n.n. attended the quadrennial convention of the Student Volunteer Movement for Foreign Missions held In Cleveland. O., and here enlisted the support of the leaders In the world's missionary work. Such world-famous leaders In thought and religious action as John r. yi.itt and Dr. Robert E. Speer gave Instant inooritmeni to tne suggestion of i World's Christian Citizenship Confer ence. In 1900 Dr. Stevenson carried his project to the great Ecumenical Mi. slonary Conference in New York and there It was again strongly Indorsed. ine iirst aeilnite step was taken in 190-4 when a call was issued. Students of world problems In many non-Chris tian lands, and scores of others as sented to the general proposition and agreed to do their' utmost. From 1904 to 1909 the executive com mittee of the National Reform Asso ciation, an organization making its headquarters In Pittsburg, gave con sideration to the project- This asso ciation will celebrate Its 60th anni versary in Portland during the con ference. The Reform Association procured early In 1909 a general superintendent. Dr. James S. Martin, of Pittsburg, and decided to call the conference and Im mediately began the preparation. Dr. Martin then went to Philadelphia in January, . 1910. and In conjunction with Dr. Stevenson raised a committee of 100 of the citizens of the city to care for the local interests of the con ference. The first conference was held and it resulted In the attendance of Hotel Multnomah Grand Vocal and Instrumental Concert in Lobby Every Sunday Evening, 8:30 Until 10 P. M. Table d'Hote Dinners Served Sundays Only. The Arcadian Garden Continued Success of the Hotel Multnomah Rsvue Girls in their wonderful songs with original and artistic surprises.

This conference, which was in every way a success beyond the most sanguine expectations of its promoters, near its close unanimously requested the National TReform Association to hold a second conference, the one which opens in Portland today. CONFERENCE IS SECOND START OP CHRISTIAN CITIZEN SHIP MOVE TOLD. Rev. J. Hoggs Dodds, Field Secre tary, Believes In Use of Big Stick in Missionary Work. BT MAY KELLT. No one' can doubt the great ethical and educational advantages to be de rived from the World's Christian Citi senship Conference which meets in Portland next week, but did you ever think of the great hygienic benefit to our citizens resulting from the en forced deep breathing necessary to say "World's Christian Citizenship Con ference?" Just try it once! At that, they're letting us off easy, for It's really the "Second Triennial World's Christian Citizenship Confer ence," and the amount of lung expan sion accruing t6 those who mipht come up to that test would probably waft them up to Mars, which would be awkward for the many Portlanders who prefer to spend their Summers haunting the baseball park at Twenty fourth and Vaughn streets. For those who care to trace out the origin and development of great world movements. It may be Interesting to WANTED IOO AI TOMOBII.KS FOR PAItADE J17L.V 4.

In Feb ruary of that year a meeting of men representing 11 different churches and nine different states was held In Xenia, O. These men had pondered over the Civil War. and feeling that perhaps in aome way this terrible strife had oc curred because tJod was not with us as a Nation, met together and dis cussed the possibilities of Christian citizenship. At. about the same time, although unknown to them, a similar meeting was held at Sparta. III., and when this ksw-as discovered, the coincidence decided mem to take steps toward forming a National organization. Accordingly, they met in January. 1864, and or ganized the National Reform Associa tion, which has since been conducting a campaign of education, printing Jour nals and sending out manuals and lec tures explaining Christian civil gov ernment. Among the persons of prominence to oe ii me coming conference, is the Rev. J. Boggs Dodds. D. D., whose name sounds as though it had been run through a sawmill up in Canada, but who really comes from the peace ful sunflower-strewn state of Kansas. Dr. Dodds doesn't mind what you say about his name, as he is responsible only for the best part of It the flnal D. . D. and says that everywhere he goes, the reporters like to play with It and watch the muss In the office when it strikes the printing press. To me. it looks as though the cubists had betn busy with it, but in any case the owner is an interesting, forceful per sonality, and has spent the past II years in Turkey as a missionary. Dr. Dodds says that the best way to handle the Turks, even in missionary circles. Is by the sagacious use of the big stick, -and he attributes his 1! years' success In Turkey to his adroit manipulation of that article, especially when trying to obtain needed reforms. As an Illustration, he spoke of tha difficulty they had encountered in building Roberts College at Constan tinople, until one of our naval com manders In casual conversation with a high Turkish official, asked the reason for the delay discussing the matter at some length. He happened to steam out of the harbor that night on another errand but the Turks took It for granted that some naval maneuver was intended, and granted the perm next day.
