The interesting question of women as
lay delegates in the Methodist Episco-
pal Church has drawn from Bishop Foss
some exceptionally interesting facts and
opinions on the question of amending its
constitution to make women eligible as
lay delegates ito the General Conference.
He has just finished a round of confer
ences,. and a that ait the General
Conference at Cleveland the clause alay
delegates ITO the General Conference may
be men or women will be offered in a
proper form as an amendment to the
constitution.
Bishop Foss notices that there has
pteeen very general interest in this dues-
Tom, ana those conferences opposing the
eligibility of women have been almost
unanimous, while those for it have
beer. equally so. He also says that most
OF the opposition comes from the East.
favor of the women. Another curious
thing is that eight years ago., when the
question was voted on and defeated. the
ministers and laymen voting separately,
the ministers favored it, but the Law dele.
gates defeated it. Bishop Foss thinks.

considered now, that therS was more

Then the social life is in full swim, and
there are few students SO poor or friend

Most of all, congress itself is in full

he may have the constitution at his

There are the great Smithsonian i'll
