new SPIRIT OF FEDERATION
DR., Thomas Nicholson Discusses
New Development in Science
at College Conference.
GREATER EFFICIENCY NEEDED

CHICAGO. Jan. 2O.-The church needs
the colleges and the colleges need the
church according to Rev. DR.. Thomas
Nicholson, corresponding secretary of the
Board of Education. the Methodist Epis-
copal church. DR. Nicholson spoke here
tonight before the fifth annual meeting
of the Council OF Church Boards of Edu-
cation. an organization in which fourteen
denominations are represented lie ex-
planned in detail the campaign which the
council has undertaken to create a new
sense Of the value of the religious ele-
ment in education" saying in part:
The amazing literary, historic and
scientific accumulations of recent years
has led to state of perplexity in the
face of certain religious problems for
which traditional conceptions are no
longer adequate. Many views formerly
believed to involve grave moral issues
have all but disappeared after bitter
struggles; others have slipped out Of
thought unawares. new spirit of
liberation also has come with the influx
Of vast foreign population.
The church needs what the colleges
stand for because II religion is to be
preserved the convictions OF its worth
must come from reasoned confidence
that 1t is coherent, consistent with human
experience and adaptable to each new
addition to the stock Of human knowl-
edge. Theology, IL its honored place
among the sciences is to be maintained,
must be progressive with it's determine
lions reached by scientific methods.
The college and higher education gen
orally sadly need religion. The religious
impulse and the Christian ideal are
among the most potent influences known
to man for saving a college life from
the purely mercenary, uselessly social,
iciy selfish, sodden sensual elements"
DR.. Nicholson pleaded that colleges be
more amply endowed.
1T is almost a crime, with our wealth
and opportunities to leave our young
people to be the prey of cheap and in
efficient colleges" he said.
The speaker added that the campaign
would be conducted not through big con-
ventions which have pretty much had
their day." but by gatherings of leaders
in thought and through existing organi-
cations in Sunday schools, colleges and
in the homes directly.
