WESLEY COLLEGE
IS AFTER FUNDS
METHODIST PASTORS OF STATE
URGED TO REMEMBER THE EN-
. DOWMENT PLAN--HoPED TO
INCREASE TIE AMOUNT TO
100000.

| Bishop Naphtali Luccock. who has
official supervision of the Methodist
churches in North Dakota, has sent
the following letter to every pastor of
the denomination in the state:
Dear Brother: You will remember
that our North Dakota conference at
its session Of 1912 heartily indorsed
the project of increasing the endow-
ment of Wesley college, fixing the goal
at 100000. Let us give this matter
immediate and continuous right-of-
way until the goal is attained. Some
generous gifts have been made to this
fund and number of the friends of
the college are favorably considering
the same. Without doubt, by hearty
cooperation and well-directed team
work, the undertaking can be closed
up in the near future Is it too much
to hope that by 1914 we can finish tfge
enterprise and be ready for the next
forward step along educational lines?
The conference has made good be-
ginning in this educational enterprise
We have now 100000 in grounds and
building and quite 100000 in pro-
ductiVe endowment. The proposed
100000 would provide additional
buildings, meet some other pressing
needs, and leave $150,000 for endow-
ment. This would place the college on
its growing future. Excellent work has
been sustained by the college at the |
normal school at Valley City and sim
liar work is planned for the normal
school at Minot. The college is work
ing most harmoniously with our state
institutions and is gradually realizing
Its great ideal of large and vital relig- |
ious influence and service at the edu-
cat1onal centers of the commonwealth. |
The imperative and commanding thing
before the Methodism of North Dako- |
ia at present is the endowment of
Wesley college. Let us arise and do it. |
Sincerely yours.
Naphtali Luccock
Wesley college is affiliated with the |
state university, which it supplements
by conducting a college of religion,
conservatory Of music, department
of expression, and student residence |
halls. In one or more of these ways |
it served 619 different students during |
the past school year. The growth of |
the college demands increase of funds. |
