! i the H!ble, which it handles cduca-
! t,Unally. 1t does not attempt to defend
The Book against the attacks of inlidels
or to answer the questions of the
higher critics, but the Assembly seeks,
what is more important, TO render the
Sacred Volume more serviceable in
building character during the forma-
tive period of childhood and youth,
and in regulating conduct during the
latter years of maturity and age.
The Assembly is arranged in ten
departments suited to Ministers,
Sunday School Teachers, Parents,
Young People, College Professors,
School Teachers and all Evangelical
Christians. These departments are
planned to meet the needs OF each and
every class of Christian workers.
Subjects Of vital interest will be pre-
sented at each session by specialists,
chosen by the local committees in
charge of the respective Conferences.
A large number of speakers have been
secured. among which are found some
of the most distinguished names in the
religious world. A few of these are
