A. M. A..
National Meeting of the American Mis-
EiOnary Association 80 Re Held Here.

What is the American Missionary as
sociation which is TO met in Burlington
October 10, 70 and p? This question is
answered by Secretary Cooper as fol-
lows:
THE American Missionary association
was formed Some sixty years ago by
Christian men moved by profound con-
victons of religious duty and OF human
obligation Its purpose was neither
controversy nor agitation but missionary
service. Its Aeld WAS the world, Its
special care was for the oppressed It
believed with all its might, In the
infinite worth Of single human soul,
and In the recovsra.bleness Of man nj his
worst.
1.-The association. both by charter and
constitution. is an unsectarian organ
izatior, Its management ana control are
IN the hands Of its supporters; but it Is,
and from the beginning has always been.
distinctivcly ard even radically Christian.
Its declared objects are, 10 serd the
gospel to conduct Christian mis-
sionary and educational operations TO
dlffuse a knowledge OF the Holy Scrip
lures It's radcalism is in the emphasis
1t lays upon an impartial Christianity. Its
interpret alton of Christ's great law OF love
TO ones nciglThor is as uncompromis-
ing and insistcnt as It is all-inclusive II
finds its social ethics in the parable of
the good samaritan, and the commission
under which It serves is the divine COM
mand to go and DO likewise
The work Of this body Is confined ~
the United States and its foreign pos
sessions and is concentrated on tho negro,
the Indian, the Oriental and the poor
mountain whites" of tho South. The
schools are training individuals OF these
| races to help their own people TO higher
| standards of Christian living, In all our
| land there seems to be no more devoted
band OF workers than those who have
| consecrated their lives to helping these
| oppressed o. neglected peoples,
