Excerpt from North American Students and World Advance: Addresses Delivered at the Eighth International Convention of the Student Volunteer Movement for Foreign Missions, Des Moines, Iowa, December 31, 1919 to January 4, 1920

Within a week the coal strike ceased and the holding of the Convention was made possible. This prayer preparation had much to do with the success of the Des Moines gathering.

Mention should be made of the remarkable hospitality of the people in Des Moines. A sufficient number of homes were thrown open to make it possible, together with the hotel accommodations offered, to entertain a thousand more delegates than actually at tended the Convention.
