statement of our brother and chairman of
the executive committee in regard 20 Sc
curing quarters in Chicago for the coming
reunion, and desire to somewhat make
correction in regard to myself.
The connection have with the execu-
tive committee has, by their request, been
to give my views as to the best place to
hold the reunion and to assist so far as l
could in AscertaininR what could be done
in the way of securing quarters and place
to hold our meeting in Chicago. RS 1 am
somewhat familiar with the city. / Sc
cured an option on hail in the Audi
torium, in which to hold our business
sessions If the committee decides TO want
it, The assistance | proffered was not
meant TO be in a financial way. As stated
to committee, brother and myself ar.
ranged some time ago to locate in Chicago
during the worlds fair period, and surely
! should not be expected to assist tinan.
cially in securing these quarters, as
could not snare them with the club SO
brother Jacobs has counted on q little too
much for me.
This, however, need not be q drawback
to r ready response from others; and
hope enough members will respond TO en-
able the committee to make such arrange
ments as they may deem for the best in
terests of the club.

saw this house Mr.. Jacobs is negotiating
for, and wrote him Immediately upon my

will respond at once. Remember. good

Brother "Hawkeye," / was surprised at
your criticism OF Prof. Drummond and
his book Natural Law in the Spiritual
World ] read the book over carefully a
year or two ago and must say l gained
ideas Of spiritual laws, spiritual word
or kingdom that had not before, and l
wonder that you should so fail to see
what 20 clearly seems to mo to be the
authors object, that OF pointing out the
successive kingdoms or stages of develop
ment from the lower or inorganic 20 the
higher or spiritual; tracing the parallel
ines OF law running through each, and
that the law we call natural in the mate.
rial world extends into tho spiritual
world.
Even the title of the book indicates
this, and. such object precludes the idea of
the authors having q creed to promul-
gate. And l failed to find anything in
the book advocating baby roasting" as

illusions from a man who is capable Of
filling so high position as professor of
the Edinburg university is worthy of most
careful consideration.
