Laymen’s Missionary Movement
In the midst of all the political
furore, there is in progress in
the state a religious movement
that has for its purpose the up
building of the spiritual and the
moral in the citizenship. This
is the Laymen’s Missionary
Movement, which is making ex
tensive preparations for holding
a state-wide convention in Little
Rock, March 1, 2, 3 and 5, in
which the lay leaders of all Prot
estant churches may join.
One of the interesting features
of the advance preparationS" for
the convention was the sending
of committees last Sunday fore
noon to every church in the city,
to lay the work before the various
congregations. There were about
sixty men in the party, going in
committees of three. A banner
is to be awarded the denomintion J
and another to the individual
congregation having the largest
enrollment at the convention. It
will be strictly a men’s method
meeting, planning how the work
of the church may be more ef
fectively carried on. Women
may attend but will not be ad
mitted to membership. An ef
fort is being made to secure the
attendance of at least one thous
and men from outside of Little
Rock. The only expense attached
to the convention will be a one
dollar enrollment fee, which en
titles ths delegations to all the
privileges. Arrangements are
also being made with the rail
roads for reduced fares.
The speakers at the convention
are men of national reputation
who are touring the country in
the interest of this tremenduous
movement which is now in its,
ninth year and has already wield
ed a wonderful influence for
