PROF. j. F. LANE,

Among the conference visitors who
passed through the city last week en-
route from the Methodist Conference
was Prof. j. F, Lane, president Of the
Lane College, Jackson, Tenn. Prof.
Lane is a young man, yet he has en-
tered into the educational work with
\ seeming ardor and determination to
win. Lane College is the largest and
most successful Of all the G. M. E..
schools. 1t is advantageously located
geographically. This together with a
faculty makes it one of Tennessee's
greatest schools Mr.. Lane spent
but a part of the day IN Nashville,
having been compelled to hurry back
to his school, He was among the large
number of school presidents that was
in Boston during the month of August
and who attended the Fifth Clifton
Conference. He stated to a Globe re-
porter while here that his school was
doing very good work and that the
prospects are extremely bright for
doing better work.

this amount captured the banner from

The quarterly crown rally, which
takes place Sunday November 8,
promises to be holly contested, as
Philathia Glass No. 16 has held the
