Education Society
The report OF the directors Of the Maine
Baptist Education Society was presented
at the morning session.
At the close of another year of service
we greet you. The service such as it has
been we have gladly given and there has
been some degree of satisfaction In the
performance of this service. You have
already learned from the report of the
. treasurer that we have paid our bills
but have not cancelled the debt of the
previous year. The executive committee
has met each quarter at the same time
and place Of the meeting Of the execu-
tive committee of the State convention.
An earnest effort has been made to rem
der faithful service in the work which
was committed to our hands Il months
ago.
We have examined four candidates for
the ministry. one of whom is young
woman who Is to become a foreign mis-
sionary. During the year IL young people
have been aided
We have kept in personal touch with
these young people. With one excep-
ton they have been students at Colby
college. To the officers the years work
has been a pleasant one. for we have
been in touch with a fine company OF
young people. With rarest exception they
have been doing praiseworthy work in
the college and in our churches they
have been notably successful.
We are certain that however success
full the past years have been. the last
one has been conspicuous in the marked
achievement OF our students supplies. In
this matter we do not forget that the
connecting link between these students
and the churches Is our honored secre-
tary Of the missionary convention-Dr I.
b. Mower.
We are proud of the work Of our
ministerial students. We hope that we
are modest when we make this state
ment.:
YOU b6puStS u dAO ~ W
CONGRATULATED that in contributing to
the Maine Baptist Education Society
you are having some part in the gra-
cious and successful ministry Of these
young people.
! They are to give their all to the su-
preme task Of life-the Christian min
istry. No mortal man Is ever more
highly honored than when God calls
him to the ministry Of Jesus Christ.
We Maine Baptists need to wake up
to,the exalted privilege which we have
of doing something substantial to-
wards putting young Timothys in the
ministry. It is. our conviction that for
81 work so immeasurable in its useful
ness; so lasting in its results. so far
reaching. in its touch, SO Christlike in
Its service that we ought to rise up
andspove forward in this work.
hsWesmust-we must do more than we
have done. In order to meet our d.
napcial obligations we should not re-
duce our appropriations to these stu
