DIR. HILLS, LECTURE.
Talks on "Ruskin's Message to the
Twentieth Century.

The Rev. DR.. Dwight Hills, who has
Il national reputation, visited Corbon-
dale last evening for the first time as
our guest, and delivered at the Grand
his lecture "Ruskn's Message to the
Twentieth Century" before the largest
audience that has attended the teach
ers' institute lecture course. This was
the final number of the successful en-
terurise.
DR.. Hills has a good presence and a
pleasing voice, even though It strikes
one as being somewhat high.p pitched.
He speaks with a rapidity that would
make an expert stenographer stir him.
self to keep up with the remarkably
ready flow of words. His pulpit ex-
perience is present in his method OF
delivery.
TO Ruskn's influence DR.. Hills cred
tied six of the eight great social re-
forms of the last half century. He was
the first to establish the moral obli-
cation of wealth and poverty by giving
all that he possessed, nearly two mill
ions of dollars, the fruits OF his toll, to
the poor. finally taking up his abode in
Whitechapel. i'm London. Ruskin was
the man who went over to the home
of art and from the marble palaces
took back the great collection of the
beautiful in art, bestowed them among
the poor, frightened their homes and
made possible that the poorest child in
this land can today have, for a cent,
copies of the great masterpieces that
Queen Elizabeth could not obtain. 1t
was Tuskin who founded the college
settlements the university extension
project and the establishment OF read
ing libraries over several nations. He
ditfused the beautiful and the useful
among the poor, and through these
means OF education was factor in the
great fruits of progress that we are
now enjoying.
DIR. Hills lecture was most compre-
hensive and was rarely enjoyable for it's
satire and vii and bright humor, be-
sides its beauty of rhetoric. 1t was a
fitting close to a splendid lecture course
that the public spiritedness of Superin-
tendent Carr provided for Carbondali-
ans at Il nominal cost. just sufficient 10
meet the expenses.
