gent, deserving students money with
which to complete their studies neces-
sary to make Methodist ministers or

times and on easy payments Rev. Dr..
Charles H. Payne, Of New York city,
the corresponding secretary OF the
board, presented in pamphlet form
report upon these loans, embracing
the entire % years during which they
have been given. This report showed
that $685. 900 had been paid to students
and that only the sum Of $4,000 had
been returned. At the meeting Of
the conference committee on educa-
