ON PERTINENT THEME
Lectures On 'sThe Outlook For the
Denominational Collegc"--Ff-
nancial Aspect of Case Com
ridorcd

In the auditorium of the Richmond
college yesterday afternoon DIR. +. W
Boatwright, president OF the institii.
ton. spoke on THE Outlook For the
UNCONVENTIONAL College" the theme
for the last of a series of faculty ,ec-
lures given at Richmond College dur
ing the early months of the college
year. The gathering was large and
II gave thoughtful consideration to
the words of the speaker.
The lecture did not purport to be
a forecast OF what the denominational
college in the future will be or
whether IT will be at all--that mat
ter was left to the Judgment OF the
hearers. The history and develop
ment of the denominational college
from 1896, when Harvard was found
ed by the Puritans. to the close of
the Civil War in 1865. a period Of 23o
years. was presented In this period
the denominationaI college was shown
to he the prevalent and dominant type
of school for higher learning. though
some OF the States, among them North
Carolina. Georgia and Virginia. had
made provision early In the nine
teenth century for higher education at
public expense.
After covering the broad field OF
higher education and %the part the
denominational college has. DR.. Boat
wright presented a program en-
phasiz'ng for the denominational col
lege compelling faith in its mission:
il should determine a program of
teaching and other service which viii
best satisfy higher educational needs F.:
it should observe caution in entering
professional or vocational fields with
out ample financial resources; 1t should
make liberal provision for the educa-
ton Of women.
In conclusion he declared the "out -.
look for the denominationai college
is inseparaby bound up with The
problem of finding the money with
which to do its work thoroughly"

Real estate experts employed by the
board of local improvements have
drawn $2S5,175.s3 from the city treas.
ury since Jan. 1. 1910, or an average
Of about $4,000 annually. OF this
amount s9S,525.55 went to experts EN-.
ployed in connection with the widen.
ing Of 18th street and Michigan ave.
nue.. Il is said that bills calling for
the expenditure of more than 100000
are piling up in the office OF the board
due to the refusal of City Treasurer
Sergel to pay the warrants.
The above figures were cleaned
from an elaborate tabulation made for
use by aldermen planning to demand
change in the system SO that real
estate experts will work on salary in.
stead of drawing fees. Experts ap.
pointed by the courts may be made an
exception.
Most of the experts drew money in
four different years and some were
fortunate enough to collect In five con.
secutive years.
Payments to experts In connection
with the widening of 18th street be.
gan In 1911 In the latter part of Mayor
Buses administration. The largest
payments that year were made to Har.
ry Goldstine and Chris J. McGurn,
each receiving $2,4O5.SS. In 1912 Gold.
slime and McGurn, each drew $4,000
and in 1913 they received s2,O52. Nc.
Gurn dropped out after 1913, but Gold.
slime received $4,000 in 1914, making
a total payment to him Of $15,45S.20
since 1911.
In 1914 the names of three new ex.
perts appear, Walter II. Mcdonald and
Thomas J. Powers each receiving S..
900. while Claude +. Fitch drew 81.
900.
The year 1915 found many real es.
tate experts working for the board OF
local improvements in connection with
the 18th street and Michigan avenue
widening.
