      The National Convention of the Disciples of Christ, held in Springfield, Illinois, October 16-23, 1896, adopted the following recommendations:

      "1. That this convention approve the ideas of adding, within certain limits, the educational feature of the Christian Endeavor Societies among us. This added educational feature shall include helps for the systematic reading of the Bible, a selected course of reading concerning missions in general, and our own missions in particular, and thorough instruction as to the origin, the principles, and the history of our own movement for the restoration of New Testament Christianity.

      2. That this convention approve of the purpose to provide a series of hand-books for our young people covering the field not already satisfactorily covered." [5]
