The November number of The Par

Miss Harriet Rearden. graduate
of The Church Training and Deaconess
House Of the bio, ese Of Peunsyr

ter upon her duties in tai, Parish ON
Sunday the tth OF November Her
record as given by those who know
of her work in the past gives us
hope that her coming among us may
prove a real help to our mission work
We believe that the training which a
deaconess receives before she is
deemed fit to be set apart for that
Office must add much to her useful

that the garb which deacouess
wears gives to her in the eyes of
those among whom she has TO work,

their absence from home at college.
The peculiar home ties that ussociat-
ed them with the church schools of
their native towns were broken at
that time. and the college did moth
ing to interest them in the large pro-
portions of the problem of popular
religious education. This fault of the
college, therefore, President Pell
would correct by establishing relig-
ious pedagogy as one of the principal
interests Of the curriculum He be-
lieves he can send young women back
to their home churches eager to teach
Sunday schools-eager to put into
practice what they have learned in
theory from their alma mater.
Certainly ii should not be hard TO
find Christian money by which real
ization can be given soon to so prac-
teal and happy a thought as this.

1t is greatly to the credit of Con-

raising its academic standard. No
radical and sudden revision of the
curriculum has been attempted. but
each year something is taken from
the flSt year of the course and some

a decided step upward is taken. 1t is
only the standard Of the nigh schools

that the college must not be lifted
