The exesutive board submitted its report showing (127,000 subscribed to schools, and a great increase in numbers.
The president then addressed the society on the revival of educational matters in the south, and Dr. J. P. Green-1, president of William Jewell coll jge of Missouri, talked on "The Bearing of the Modern Educational Revival on Denominational Colleges." He stated that the high schools are not irreligious. "Baptists should go in and help run these high schools and see that they are kepi free from unbelief as now.
In some places church academies may be necessary. A man who wants to be a professional man should go to the university. But we don't need a university which tries to make a professional man out of an academy student it should confine itself to professional training. The boy who is in college wants to get out at 2l and go to work and the boy who isn't in college wants to be a He wants to 'follow' But what is he going to do with himself? So many of our preachers want the 'quick meal' course to get in aiid out early. Tou want a good education if you are going to build high.
Nearly all the boys that are ruined religi iusly and not ruined in the academy or university, but in the college." After the conclusion of the address of President J. P. Greene, Dr. E. M.
Po-teat of Philadelphia addressed the educational society. Visitors were constantly arriving and the audience was quite large at this time. The speaker deprecated the attempt by ministers to attend to too many affairs, and advocated specialism religious teaching. he said, one of the most graphic preachers, had announced to his congregation that hereavler he would not vie with their other sources of information but would preach the gospel. Dr.
'Washington Gladden had retired from the city council of Columbus, Ohio, because he was not fitted for its duties. The only authority this age will recognize is authority of specialists. The "soup ki-tchen," theology is waning. Berkely Temple, Boston, will cease many of its devices of attracting people and have four religious services on Sunday. The secretary stated that it was customary in the election of officers to have a nominating committee, but as no committee had been named he suggested a list of names as officers.

THE WATER FROM Aganippe It is learned that at the meeting of the grand lodge of Masons at the Oxford orphan asylum on "St. John's Day," June 24, the matter of the choice of a location for the Masonic Temple will be specially taken up.
Much interest is felt among the members of the order regarding this subject. At the annual communication here last January it was decided that a temple should be built. The electrical engineering class of the Agricultural and Mechanicalcollege here spent yesterday at Milburnle, inspecting and studying the electrical power plant there. The class was in charg'. of Prof.
Weilie. Yesterday was baseball day in this town. The weather was simply superb. There was a procession to the grounds in which the state officers, city officers, county officers, the offcers of the Stale league, the Durham and the Raleigh teams, rode in carriages to the music of a band. There was also a spacious float, decorated in red and white, and gay with flags.
In this were the queen of the rooterinas, her maids of honor and the sponsor. The fair rooterinas, those charming devotees of the national game, wearing Raleigh's colors, red and white. In the procession and before the Raleign team vi as carried the pennant won last season by Raleigh, the gift of Spaldin? of Chicago. At the grounds the two teams marched to the grounds to inspiring music and a volley of cheers and handclaps. Mayor Powell pitched the first ball.

Spilman said in part: "The nineteenth century has been the nost remarkable in the world's history. When it opened all Europe was at war. Modern mission work was in its infancy. The evangelisation of the world was and is still dependent upor the peoples of the world who use the English language as their speech. The French and Indian war in the eighteenth century broke the power of the French west of the Blue Ridge mountains and east of the Mississippi river.
The French were Romanists. 'The French revolution and the wars that followed made necessary the sale of the great territory of Louisiana. "The Mexican war gave us the territory west of the Rocky mountains. This was a Spanish speaking territory Romanist, too. Florida came to us by purchase.
"This gives a great bace on to stand. The ends of the earth crowd our shores. They learn, or their children do, our language. We may preach to them in all America in our own country, under our own flag. "The means of transportation, and rapid communication help along the gospel message.
In all the world's history there never has been a day, there never has been a country which has afforded the opportunity which we in America have today. "Mr. W. T. Stead has written a remarkable book on the Americanization of the world.
May we siexe the opportunity and make ft also the Christ ia n-isation of the world." NOTICE.
