lessor Cole. Will Edwards, Miss Bollinger
and Miss Nutb.
Rev. Il. S. Chase introduced the first
speaker OF the evening, Rev. M. Il. Phil
lips. DID,. who spoke in part as follows:
THE question which most confIonts us
today is that of education. What shall
be done TO meet the growth of the world?
When we face these things, the untold
possibilities, the great unsolved questions
of social. economic and scientific import
ance, the great question is. What shall
we do toward solving them? What ought
we to do in the preparation necessary to
meet the dawning century?
Education is necessary to the accom-
plishment of this work. 1t is possible
through the strength of education to
Il Il I.-... -sl.
things which will revclutioniZe the whole
system OF modern civilization. Let us
hope that these things may come to pass
soon.
"We are moving rapidly now, but we
Will advance still more rapidly. Think
Of the great mechanical improvements
that have been made within the last de-
cadet.
Rev. Phillips then dwelt at length up
on the growth of the present school sys-
tens. going back to the old institutions
established by the monks and paying a
high tribute to them and the universities
springing from them.
In concluding, Rev. Phillips outlined
his ideal OF an education, spreading forth
a broad course OF training, beginning with
the small child and taking it up through
comprehensive course, embracing all
that is practical and ideal.
Rev. J. b. Green was then introduced,
and after making a graceful lmnary
reference to the speech OF the preceding
speaker, took up the subject practically
where it was dropped by Mr.. Philips.
He announced as his intention the re-
viewing of the Methodist schools in
Southern California. He took up each
institution separately and spoke in detail
of the features of each. The struggle.
experienced in putting the schools on
their present standing received the atten-
ton of Mr.. Green, who gave an interest
ing history of their growth and develop
ment. In this connection Mr.. Green re-
ferred to the selection of Rev. George ".
White, presiding elder of this district,
having been selected as president of the
University OF Southern California, and
expressing the sincere hope that he
would accept the prOffered position. Clos
ing, the speaker urged the support of the
congregation, assuring them that contin-
ued success would follow such conditions.
The meeting was then adjourned, the
benedcition being delivered by the pre-
siding o fficer after the singing of the
DoXology by the audience.
