The address of Rev. DIR. Ernest D. Burton
Of Illinois was on THE Christian Univer-
sity as Related to the Worldwide Mission

barriers of denominationalism should be
broken down in great effort by the Chris

within the fold of Christianity.

The speaker also said that the universe

broad need of an education which keeps in

religion without insisting upon any of the
narrowing limits of creed or doctrine
In conclusion the speaker said that within
the next five years educators should found
