DIR. CONWELL TO SPEAK
AT HIGH SCHOOL TODAY

DR.. Russell II. Conwell, 'the most
popular lecturer in the world" and the
founder of the Institutional church in
America and the Temple university,
will be the attraction in the Lyceum
at the High school, January 20.
In 1884, while DR.. Conwell was pas
tor of the Grace Baptist church in Phil
adelphia, two young men came to him
to ask if there was any way In which
they could get the education neces-
sary to prepare them for the ministry.
They We're past 20 years of age and
were obliged to earn their own living,
so they must study at night, If at all,
and work during the day. DR.. Conwell
agreed to teach these young men him
self and appointed a time when they
should come to his study to begin
work. When they arrived they brought
with them five other young men who
were as eager for knowledge as they
were, and here began what in after
years was destined to be the Temple uni
versity. one of the greatest institutions
in America for the moral, mental and
physical development of young men and
women who must earn their way and
pay as they go.
Since that time over 10000 young
men and women have been graduated
and the medical, dental, law and theo-
| logical schools and the normal physi-
cal education department and the Sa-
maritan hospital have all been opened
as parts of Temple seminary.
Self made, self-educated and the pri-
mary factor in the education of 10000
| young men and women who have had
| to earn their own way while getting
an education. Mr.. Conwell is eminently
fitted to make his lecture, THE Silver
Crown" or How Men Succeed" both
| interesting and helpful.

Pack in a stone crock with alternate lay
