NEsRAskA SHOWS INTEREST IN
RURAL LIFE CONFERENCE
At AMEs.
DATES OF MEETING,
JUNE ~ TO JULY 2
Practical Men, Not Theorists, TO A..
pear on Presram-RuraI Ministers
Who Are Maintaining Model Church
Work to Present Details Of Work
and Outline Results.

Special to Times Republican.
Ames, May 10-This years rural life
conference at Iowa State College, June
II to July 2. is arousing wide interest
among rural church leaders, not mere
ly in Iowa but also in adjoining states
where such conferences are not held.
Dean Charles F. Curtiss chairman of
the conference committee. has a letter
from q prominent. Nebraska church
leader asking If the Methodist church
In that state may send a hundred
picked rural preachers to attend the
gathering at Ames. Dean Curtiss has
written that they will be welcomed.
Practical Men on Program.
This years program is the strongest
that has thus far been arranged. 1t in
cludes chiefly men who are not mere
theorists about improving country life,
but who are actually doing things.
The midwest has been secured for ru-
raj ministers who are maintaining
model church work, and as many of
them as possible will appear on the
program for one or more addresses.
The conference this year will again be
Adams, who two years ago made the
gathering pronounced success thru
his wisdom and tact.
Purposes Of Conferences.
This conference is the colleges con-
tribution to the solution of the rural
life question in Iowa Its program has
three main purposes: To give rural
ministers opportunity to study some
phases Of agriculture and rural econ
omics and sociology so that they may
deal more sympathetically and help
fully with country problems; to point
out how the church may be made more
efficient in its work in the country,
and. finally. to give country church
leaders the inspiration they need to do
the things that can be done. The con-
ference is open to all interested in ru-
raj life questions, without fees. At the
same time, there will also be special
conferences on the rural school ques-
ton.
