full assent to any project. Much as we
revere the names of Wesley and Coke
and Asbury, We revere still more the
Father of all men and all churches. Let
US see how God has dealt with the edu-
cational plans of the fathers. Did you
noe the date when the general confer
ence made it's recommendation for the
establishment of seminaries and acad
emies i'll every conference? 1920? There
are persons in this house to night who
had almost reached mans estate at that
date. How brief the time seems, and
yet in that sixty four years what Lath
God wrought.
From the address of the Bishops to the
general conference at Philadelphia in
May last, quote the following statistics
of our educational work: Ten theological
institutions, forty-five colleges and uni
versities, sixty classical seminaries or
academies, eight female colleges and
seminaries, besides nineteen schools of
high grade in connection with foreign
missions; value of buildings and grounds
81, 594, $40, amount of endowment over
s., 1000, 600. Teachers 1909 students dur
ing the last year 2S, 62l, estimated num-
Der of students from the beginning 414,-
$751; have no statistics of the work Of
the church South which ought to be re-
garded in making statement of the ex-
tent of the work of Methodist education.
But assuming that it would add fourth
or even sixth to the figures already
given say again behold what hath God
wrought. Methodists, we stand tonight
upon the very verge OF the first hundred
years of our existence as distinct Or
ganization in the church OF Jesus Christ
Looking back, on this day set apart as
an occasion for national thanksgiving,
shall We pot call on al that is within us
to bless ard praise Gods holy name, and
with full hearts exclaim, bless the L ,rd
o my SOUL and forget not all His bene
| fits. But in the midst of our rejoicing
there comes this other thought, and a
| most solemn thought it is. The past
century Is what others have IN ,uie it-tne
one so soon to open before MS will be, in
part, what ace shall make it. With joy,
and measure of pride we recount and
listen to. the heroic labors the untiring
zeal, the sacrificing devotion of the faith
ers as these messages come to us, but
| what messages are We preparing for
transmission to the next century? When
the churches shall meet to celebrate the
bi-centennial what shall be said of the
men and women of 1884? sbal. our labors
our zeal, our sacrifices be to the people
of 1884 source Of joy and pride, an in
splration to still further activity, or
shall they say of us: ''they only enjoyed
when others bore the heat and burden
of the day, only rejoiced in the victories
which others had fought to win.
