NethOdistS in Kansas Have
Own Course for Ministers.
Students Course Prescribed for
Those To Be Elders.

Salina Kan, Aug. 2.-Methodism al
ways had a high educational ideal for
its ministry. John Wesley himself
was a highly educated man and he
founded the legacy of his ideal. The
statement of the Discipline on the
subject is, The general conference
earnestly recommends to all candi-
dates for the ministry of our church
that they complete a full collegiate
course of study, and If possible. q
course In one of our theological
school, before applying for admission
to an annual conference"
But there are always men for whom
a complete formal education is i'm
possible. For these the church has
always required a course of study ex-
tending over four years before they
are ordained elders in the church In
former days, the students were left
largely 10 their own devices during
the year. TO read and study as they
could, the function of the board OF
examiners being only to examine the
men at conference time Now, how
ever, the conference course has been
transformed into a course of training
Books of directions and helps have
been provided, and the board OF ex-
aminers has become a group OF teach
ers who aid their students turnout the
year by correspondence.
In over forty-five conferences of the
church, summer schools have been

The school is held ordinarily at the
seat of an educational institution. with
a term Of approximately ten days.
Here the examiners become a teach
ing faculty. and supplementary lee
lures and courses of instructions are
given by men of prominent ability.
Three postgraduate courses have
been provided. for men who have
completed the conference course.
These courses are taught thru corre-
epondence by members of the facul-
ties of Methodist theological schools,
and many of the summer schools have
added postgraduate departments.
81 SIX books have been recommended
to the post-graduates for this years
reading, with the thought that eff

achievement" The books are:

DINNER. STORIES

In the late '70s a local society gave a banquet for the members of a certain regiment noted for gallant conduct during the Civil war. The president of the society was a bit Mustered when called upon to give toast. and said: Here's to the gal 1ant 1Sth-last on the field and the first to leave it:.'

 In a western city there is a library in a massive building which can hardly be described as a crowning work of democracy. Thick walls sep arate the people from the books as if printed volumes were more previ- ous than an enlightened citizenship Ropes close the stairways to visitors and in the reading room stands heoric female figure in marble, with one finger on one lip. conveying to the few intruders a delicate .intfma ton for silence.
 Once the neighborhood in which stands this library was aroused by a particularly bold robber, and police and detectives were alert to catch the thief Sentries were placed in trains and trainsheds and a net was drawn through all likely hiding places; but without avail, for the robber escaped. A year later he was captured in distant state. and was piled with questions as to how he had evad ed such thorough search.
