as the mold " 1000 years ago into which
were poured the fundamental principles

Schurman. There may he material for
history, hut no history.

from the old dogmatisms. | believe that
no age since Christ's own needs the
teachings of Jesus Christ so much as our
own. And no place needs them so much
as our seats Of education.'

said: I'VE have today our Christian Sci
