answer to this protest the League

to the craftsmanship of the Devils

DR.. HEDLAND DELIVERS
MASTERLY LECTURES

DR.. Isaac T. Hedland, a professor
in Mr.. Union-Scio College at ALI
ance, Ohio, gave two very interest
ing addresses at the M. E. Church
last Sunday. DR.. Mecklenburg, who
was announced to come, was unable
to fill his date and will probably
spend a Sunday in Hope later. DR..
Headland spent sixteen years in Chi
ma as a missionary teacher and is the
author of ten books, the most of
which relate to the life and customs
of the Chinese people. During the
summer months he is a Chautauqua
lecturer. The lecture he gave Sun
day evening is the same lecture that
he has received SIS for on a number
Of occasions. Those who heard him
could not help but express the wish
that the church might have been
crowded to hear the interesting and
scholarly addresses. His statement
that q gift of $50 would put a young
man or woman in a Christian College
for a year, aroused interest in that
cause. Before leaving he was given
gifts for three scholarships, two of
these being given by Miss Eaton and
the other by r., A. Lathrop. DR..
Headland left Monday for Grand
Forks where he is teaching Missions
in Wesley College this semester.
One-tenth of all University students
are taking courses under him.
