pleasure Most of the college presi-
dents answering Mr. Tomlinson's que--
les said students who were natural
leaders, and men of exceptional prom
Use are much less apt to turn to the
ministry than TO other professions and
to business
The plain lesson from these investi-
cations is. concludes the Congrega-
tionalist, that if the churches would
have more valuable ministers they
must set a higher value on the minis
try. No other calling offers so great
opportunities of usefulness when those
who enter il with due qualifications
are accredited as Christian leaders and
supported by the cooperation of those
who invite their leadership. Secretary
Arson p Stokes of Yale. says: Even
looking at the ministry from the very
lowest standpoint possible, that of oD-
portunity TO distinguish ones self.
am confident that there is no position
where the chances are greater" M
movement to elevate religious life IN
this country would be more fruitful
than wise concerted effort among the
churches to exalt the ideal for the min
fstry and to kindle in their youth the
ambition TO realize that ideal.

College Men and the Ministry.

The growing Discrimination of col
lege men To enter the ministry is a
matter OF disquietude among the
churches. Reasons against entering
the ministry have been gathered by
Mr.. Tomlinson, says the Congrega-
tionalist, in an extensive correspond
ence with college presidents, profes-
sors in theological seminaries and
ministers. First. is the supposed lack
OF intellectual freedom Dean Hodges
wrote: The conservative emphasis
upon tradition and the attacks made
on men intent on truth deter othei
men who value liberty OF thought

addressed a Philadelphia audience a
few days ago. a heavy snow storm
raging at the time He made one con-
cession to- the inclemency of the
weather in the shape of a pair OF rub
Der leggings which came down over
his Chinese shoes. This eccentricity
of apparel was strikingly impressed
upon Sir Chentung's audience, when,
at the conclusion of his address. he
sat down. folded up his typewriter
speech. and calmly lifting the robe of
his long gown. deposited the manu-
script in one of his leggings. The aud
fence roared with laughter and the
diplomat gaZed at them with an ex-
preston that plainly betrayed his ig-
norance of the fact that he was the
cause of the outburst of mirth.
