Other interesting notes.

The readers of the TIMES on Col
lege Hill are glad to note the marked
improvements in the last three num-
bers of our County paper. Many
compliments have been passed on its
neat, plainly printed and newsy pages.
Our town and county, especially,
should patronize our worthy paper
and thus make it a still greater sue
cess.
The hour FIR bible study last Tues
day was set apart for hearing report
from Prof. S. T. Wilson about the
"Volunteer Convention" held at
Cleveland in February.
The report was indeed an inspiring
missionary address. The convention
was not noisy one, but the spirit Of
the whole convention was deep con.
sideration as to how the missionary
question can be solved.
Professor SAID there were sever
ideas that permeated the assembly o
more than TWO thousand, viz;
1. Christians are Christ's men to de
Christ's work.
2. The will of Christ is, that thu
world be evangelical.
3. This evangelization must b.
speedy.
4. Young people must push forward
this evangelization.
S. College men are best prepared
to lead in this great work.
6. We have special duty to per
form in promoting this world wide en-
terprise.
7. 1t is my work to help in the evan
gelization of the world.
The report was condensed and full
of enthusiasm and helpful missionar
truths.
