DIR. Bryan's Address.
A large crowd listened TO the lecture
OF DR.. Bryan last evening on the edu-
cation of the disposition.
He said: "In the background OF all
our work lie our feelings and these
determine our disposition. The worst
effect of outside evil is the evil dis
position II develops within us. We
can do something to help ourselves
away from injurious feelings by the
method OF destruction, especially by
play and by work. But more funda-
mental methods are necessary, based
upon faith. magnanimity, courage and
above all upon charity. Charity is the
physician attitude toward moral de-
lenquency."
Another exceedingly interesting ad-
dress was delivered this morning by
DR. Bryan upon the Teaching of
English" He said, at is very hard tc
teach literature for the reason that II
is difficult to find graded series of
tasks that introduce to the inner spirit
OF literature itself Committing to
memory of masterpieces is one such
task. The Interpretation OF literature
by oral reading Il another. These
are not sufficient but should be more
employed than at present"
Literature The Greatest Art.
DR.. Sanford Bell, editor Of the
Rocky Mountain Educator of Denver,
was another one of the principal
speakers of the morning and his elo-
uuent address upon the Literary In
heritance of the Race" was listened
to with the closest attention by the
crowd which packed the big church
to overflowing. He said there were
seven arts in the world and after
naming them, declared the greatest
of these to his mind, was literature.
The musical numbers of the morn
ing were a piano solo by Miss Lora
Perry, a cello solo by Prof. Frank D.
Carruth, both of this city and vocal
solo by ]. E. Keefe. Jr., of Weston.
An extra general session was held
the first thing this afternoon to en-
able President Bryan to deliver his
final address of the convention and he
