TABOR COLLEGE CONFERENCES
Educators Friendly to InstitutiOn
Consider Plans for schOOl.

An educational conference of the pastors
OF the Congregational churches of western
Iowa was held here last week. The aim OF
this conference was to bring the pastors
into touch with Tabor college and awake
a more lively interest in some of its prob
lens. Back in the early sos the board Of
trustees resolved THAT Tabor college is,
has been and forever shall be. under the
control OF Trinitarian Congregationalists,
and In order TO make the resolution un-
alterable they added that this resolution
shall not be amended or retracted." The
college has always continued faithful TO
this pledge in spite of all pressure brought
to the contrary, and this conference is
bound more firmly to cement the unity of
feeling and make friends for II In the sur
rounding territory. No other college in
the state has the field which Tabor has.
Twelve hundred square miles OF territory
without another standard college. This
100 square miles extends 100 miles east
and north of Tabor, and the lines could
go fifty miles into Nebraska and 100 miles
into Missouri before striking another Con-
gregational SCHOOL, This great territory has
been pre-empted and held for Tabor coll
lege through fifty of its existence.
About a dozen other colleges have started
in this portion OF Iowa, but with the ex-
ception of Amity college Tabor Is the only
one that has survived.
The college and community are united
as never before and a most friendly feel
ing exists between the other church organ
~izations. The Methodists of Tabor are
building an elegant 5000 church edifice
and Tabor college has shown a friendly
spirit by donating several scholarships, the
proceeds from the sale of which will be
Of material aid in the good work. The new
Methodist Episcopal pastor, Rev. ]. r.
Ramsey, has shown a fine spirit OF help
fulness and cooperation with the college.
