Team of Experts: The division by teams was as follows, although some have been associated with different teams at various times. Leader Leader Leader Team One . Charles Stelzle. ....Social Service F. S. A. M. Goodman,.... Bible Study Bruner. Community Extension H. F. Swartz...... Missions R. A. Waite...... Boys' Work Team Two J. A. Whitmore.... Boys' Work I. J. Lansing. Yutaka Minakuchi.. Missions H. W. Gibson Social Service Leader William A. Brown. Bible Study John M. Dean.....Community Extension Team Four .M. A. Honline. Bible Study Executive Staff.-Messrs. Fred B. Smith, Roy B. Guild, C. F. Cooper, James E. Lathrop, Warren L. Bunger and the Quartet, consisting of Messrs. E. W. Peck, Paul J. Gilbert, H. P. Metcalf, and C. M. Keeler, have divided their time equally between the four Teams. The time permitted for this report of course makes it utterly impossible to go into any lengthy details concerning the services rendered by these men. It is also very difficult to find terms to adequately express the appreciations which the members of the Committee of Ninety-Seven feel concerning the loyalty with which these men have rendered their services. Something of the tremendous strain through which they have been going can be understood when it is stated that in the convention work the various members have delivered 9832 addresses at 7062 different meetings and have attended 2403 committee meetings. There has been a total attendance of 1,491,245 at the meetings. This does not include the attendance or addresses in connection with the Community Extension meetings. Unity Among Workers.-In commenting upon the work so splendidly done it is a matter worthy of note, that these men who represent many different kinds of organizations and such a variety of messages have worked through the year with the utmost harmony, and without one single disagreement. From all over the Continent mention has been made of the marvelous love these workers have shown for each other and this spirit of unity and working together has had much to do with splendid results accomplished. Pastors Cooperating.—It is impossible to mention all of the ministers and laymen who from time to time have rendered such wonderful help, but mention of a peculiar kind ought to be made of Rev. James E. Freeman, D.D., Rector of St. Mark's Church, Minneapolis, Minn.; Rev. Charles A. Albertson, D.D., Pastor Central Presbyterian Church, of Rochester, N. Y.; Rev. W. J. Williamson, D.D., Pastor of Third Baptist Church, of St. Louis, Mo.; Rev. Paul Moore Strayer, Pastor Fourth Presbyterian Church of Rochester, N. Y.; Rev. Robert M. Moore, Pastor of St. Johns M. E. Church, of Brooklyn, N. Y.; Rev. Allen A. Stockdale, Pastor of Union Congregational Church, of Boston, Mass.; Rev. Charles E. Medbury, Pastor University Christian Church, of Des Moines, Ia.; Rev. J. L. White, Pastor First Baptist Church, of Memphis, Tenn.; and Rev. James A. Francis, Pastor Clarendon St. Church, Boston, Mass. Publicity. One of the fundamental methods of the whole undertaking has been publicity and to make this department effective the Committee was very fortunate in securing the service of Messrs. Henry E. Rood and William T. Ellis. To their unceasing work we owe the strength of this feature. Committees of One Hundred.-At each of the central cities Committees of "One Hundred" were organized to have the supervision of the entire year's work in their respective places. It is impossible to give full lists but of the more than 30,000 men upon Men and Religion Committees it becomes a pleasure for us to report the Chairman and Executive Secretary of the cities visited by our Teams. Chairman and Executive Secretaries in Cities Visited.-Earnest and efficient as have been the representative Teams their work would have availed but little had the cities failed in their preparation.
