mutation of its answer to the enten

gloom prevails in official circles, and
there are no illusions as to obtaining
any mitigation in dictatorial peace

les will merely have instructions to
carry the peace document back TO
Berlin.
The question whether the present
government will assume the responsi-
bility of accepting or rejecting terms
or whether it will present them for
national referedum is matter OF con
lecture. official opinion is opposed
to the referedum and is in favor of a

ize the investment and equipment.
This was one of their first reasons for
seriously considering the establish
ment of a college.
Doctor Carson, the head Of the in
stitution, is an enthusiast for the far
reaching, civilizing effects accomplish
ed by such institutions as Stony
Brook. He had practical hand in
the beginnings at Mortified, where
he used to sweep out the cottage Of
Mrs. Dwight L. Moody, and also at
WinOna Lake, Ind, where he was so
early on the ground that he had to
sleep in an old corn crib pending the
construction of new buildings. Doc
tor Carson is forceful and agrees
sive Christian minister who firmly be-
lieves that the success of the nation
depends upon the American peoples
getting back to the simple, trusting
faith of it's fathers and to the undi-
luted Gospel of Christ.
Distinguished evangeliSts have had
their share in the development of
Stony Brook, among them DR.. j. VIII
bur Chapman, in whose memory there
was recently dedicated beautiful
parkway leading from the Stony Brook
railroad station to the auditorium.
This parkway is the gift of Doctor
-Chapman's widow.
The Stony Brook assembly not only
holds it's land on the heights, but has
also acquired a considerable extent of
shore front on Long Island Sound not
far from the village. This is an old
community of unspoiled inhabitants
who have never made an attempt at
profiteering at the expense of their
hundreds of summer visitors. The
neighborhood abounds In historic To-
calities, and one of the finest exam
pies of colonial architecture in the
United States is the Presbyterian
church at Smithtown, which is in a
remarkable state of preservation.
The Presbyterian church is accus-
toned to fervent family discussion
concerning the second coming ot
Christ, as a result Of which two
schools Of thought have arisen, one
called the pre-millenarians and the
other the post-millenarians. From
some who have misunderstood the
facts a notion has gone abroad that
Stony Brook was partial to cultivating
one Of these schools. Doctor Carson
emphatically denies that Stony Brook
Is committed to either the "Pres" or
the posts" He insists that Stony
Brook is a place for the open mind
and free speech, and he now plans to
establish its additional function as a
place for free education. rEE
Personal gain for individuals has no
share in the promotion of Stony Brook.

tian aims for education and Gospel
evangelization stated in its charter,
and if the institution at any time de-
parts from it's original program It's
property legally reverts to the boards
of the Presbyterian church In the
United States.
The platform of principles on which
Stony Brook assembly was founded
and which is the basis of it's articles
of incorporation is as follows:
1. The divine inspiration, integrity
and authority Of the Bible.
2. The deity of our Lord Jesus
Christ.
8. The need and efficacy of the sac
rifice of the Lord Jesus Christ for the
redemption of the world.
4. The presence and power of tho
Holy Spirit in the work Of redemption
5. The divine institution and mis-
sion of the church.
6. The broad and binding obligation
resting upon the church for the evan
gelization Of the world.
Z. The consummation of the King
dom in the appearing Of the glory OF
the great God and our Saviour Jesus
Christ.

trail Presbyterian church 81
Brooklyn, N. Y, and president OF the
Stony Brook assembly, Presbyterian
institution which is to Long Island
what Mortified is to Massachusetts.
The college is to be erected on the
grounds of the assembly at Stony
Brook, Long Island, and the plan Is
to support it by endowments from IN
diyiduais and benevolent organ1za-
lions.
Doctor Carson says that the time
is ripe for the foundation of high
grade college for ambitious youths
who are precluded by lack OF means
from attending existing institutions,
and he further says that the needs OF
the age demand that such a college
for poor boys should be Christian
institution. Therefore one OF the es-
sential studies at the Stony Brook
college will be that of the Bible, IL
which lessons the student will receive
examinations and marks the same as
in secular studies.
Construction of the necessary col
lege buildings will be begun at once.
These will contain class and lecture
rooms and study halls. The existing
buildings at Stony Brook will be util-
lied for college purposes until they
are outgrown. These include large
auditorium which has been used for
summer conferences and is suitable
for a college auditorium. The two es-
tablished hotels on the Stony Brook
grounds, Johnston hall and Hopkins
hall. will be used as dormitories for
the boys.
Stony Brook already represents an
investment of 100000. The assembly
controlling it is a Presbyterian body,
but 1t is not intended to make the new
Christian college denominational In
stitution. Indeed many of the sum-
mer conferences of the Stony Brook
assembly have from the very inception
been INSTRUMENTATION.
Stony Brooks benevolent and edu-
cational purposes have already won
substantial support from philanthropic
people. Hopkins hall, one of the two
large well-appointed modern hotels on
the grounds, is the gift Of Ferdinand
T. Hopkins of KatOnah, n. Y, whose
portrait adorns the wall over the huge
fireplace at the entrance. Johnston
hall is the gift of Robert Johnston OF
st. Louis. There has just been added

summer conferences. These confer
