Record Book with the Inscription, "Property of the Mt. Desert Local Union of Christian Endeavor and Epworth League

This is a traditional-looking ledger with no title on the outside cover. However, on the first page in cursive is written "Property of the Mt. Desert Local Union of Christian Endeavor and Epworth League".
The pages are numbered from 1 to 130. The pages are lined with a margin on the left-hand side of each page. Page 1 begins a record of the sixty-fourth meeting of the Mt. Desert Island Local Union of C.E. and E.L. Societies on May 18, 1918. Reports were given from various towns and villages on and in the MDI area like, Bar Harbor, Northeast Harbor, Southwest Harbor, Manset, Salisbury Cove, Seal Harbor, Somesville and Cranberry Isles. The question raised was "Should the Local Union unite with the Sunday School Association?"
