It as an annual event. The delegates
to the conference will be from 1M
districts south of Eugene.
The following statement regn
the Ashland Epworth League insti
tute and a resume ot the league's
work is taken from the official pro
gram: The past year has registered the
greatest success In, the number ot
.institutes and Institute attendance of
any year In which insitutes have been
held, the total number of Instliites
being seventy-six with a total regis
tratlon of about 35,000. The year
also was characterized by the reach
ing out of institute work Into our
mission fields, Mexico, India, South
America and Slnapore,. and enlarge
ment of what had been done among
the colored conferences of the south.
The central office anticipates that
1921 will report an attendance of at
least 50,000.
Our own Oregon Institute has been
ot slow but steady growth, coming
to its greatest success In 1920 when
the enrollment went considerably be
yond the 200 mark. So keen wat
the Interest growing out of the suc
cess of last season, that Southern
Oregon felt Bafe In putting into ex
ecution a long cherished desire to
have an institute at Ashland. This
is a long step In advance, which will
bring a large gathering of young
Methodism together In fellowship
with a big host of Instltuters scat
tered over the entire world. Wel
come, little sister. May you live
long, and prove a source of great
joy in the big iustltute family.
