1t has been the task of General Won
Heeringen during the war to hold
the southern line in France. Some
years ago he was war minister OF
Germany and a scandal was. to some
extent, the casue of his removal from
that post. 1t has been said that he
was given command of one of the
great German armies in the field to
reinstate himself and to show his
ability. There is little doubt that he
has done this to the satisfaction OF
the kaiser, else he would not have
been kept in the field so long.

.H|sl0p TALKS ON
HIGHER EDUCATION

The West Guthrie Methodist church
was comfortably filled Sunday morn
ing. The feature was a sermon on
'fChristian Education" delivered by
DR.. Hislop, chancellor of the Meth
odist university. He dwelt at length
on the aims and intentions of the
Gathrie institution of learning. He
also drew a clever distinction between
"sectarian' and "denominational'
school, making 1t plain that the local
place of higher learning was a pure
ly UNCONVENTIONAL institution in ey-
cry sense of the word. He paid a
high tribute to our state colleges, but
thought we were making an effort to
keep too many in the field. THE
number could be reduced without in
juring the efficiency of our school
training declared the chancellor.
DR.. EIislop said the Methodist uni
yersity had suffered great deal the
past year from a report that had been
circulated to the effect thaV the
school had been "lawed'' out of a
home aud therefore would cease to
exist. He claimed that the institu
tion had Just cancelled $4,000 debt
and was in fair way to become one
