THE CONFERENCE SEMINARY


The West Virginia Conference Seminary
at Buckhannon has its formal opening ON
the r7th inst. Enrolment and class work
had begun two weeks earlier. The number
OF students Is larger than In any fall term
In the history OF the Institution. Three
additions have been made TO the Faculty
In order TO meet the demands OF the in.
creased classes. Daring the summer
vacation the buildings aud grounds under.
went very much Improvement The plant
Tor heating and watering the buildings
was thoroughly ovcrhauicd. The campus
OF ~ acres looks very beautiful. The new
Music Hall Is up to the third story and will
be ready Tor occupancy by the beginning
OF the winter term. The only delay posi-.
BILE Is In the failure OF producers TO supply
material fast enough. The demand for all
kinds Of building material In Buckhannon
Is very great at present. The Institution
has now r3 departments aud courses. The
principals OF these departments are strong
and experienced people. The work OF
Endowment has been carried on through
the year with encouraging success. The
President expects to serve this Parsons
offer. Between now and the beginning OF
December the most strenuous efforts will
be made TO raise the needed balance. and
thus procure for the Institution tIoo. 900 90.
The friends OF the school are now very
many. Its constituency Is very large
There Is every reason why this offer should
be saved and the multitude OF believers In
this great Institution ought to rally at
once whether solicited or not, and send In
their contribution TO the President Of the
Seminary.
