The third-day session of the geneéral eonference of the Seventh-day Baptist Genomination, in Bliven opera house, was devoted to the Education society, with Rev. W, C. Whitford presiding. The exercises opened at ten o'clock in the morning with a hymn, followed with Scriptural reading and prayer by ‘Rev. W. L. Burdick. The opening ad- dréss was by President Whitford. He referred to the general work .of the society and the needs of substantial encouragement. Teachers are no less important to the work of God than the preachers, for their work is the all development' of the best there is in man, their true and real purpose is to do that which is pleasing to the Holy Father. He said the Seventh-day Baptist Education society was work- ing in a broad field and entitled to the hearty support of all friends of €d- ucation. Help is needed to develop the young people through its educational system. At the conclusion of President Whit- ford's address, the Misses Sarah and Lillian Budlong of Ashaway, rendered feelingly the duet, Pilgrims of the Nighi.

Main, the corresponding secretary, spoke at length on the school system and the work of the institu- tions of learning within the denomina- tion. He said that during the year the receipts of the executive board were $4.221.10, and the expenses §3,000 plus. The number of students in Al- fred university last term was 399, and there were 162 in the school of agriculture, In the past year $8,000 had been spent on buildings for the agricultural department. The better- ment fund had received pledges suffi- cient to clear off the indebtedness of $69,000. The income exceeded the ex- expenses during the yvear and there was no deficit, and_notice was received of bequests of $7,500 and the sum of $4,292 had been added to the endow- ment fund. It was probable that the Carnegie library fund offer of $25,000 would be increased to $40,000. just as soon as the indebtedness was cleared. The en- dowment fund of Alfred university for the year is $131,332, and the expendi- tures have been $36,718. In Milton college registration for the year was 132. The new auditorium and gymnasium, for which the elass of 1909 donated $1,000, has been in- creased to $9,000 and when the debt to the terms, Carnegie will 0. The endowment of this college should be increa¥ed and it is proposed to raise a fund of $65,000 to give the normal college an endowment of $200,000. The receipts for the year ‘were $16,148 and expenses $15,000. The Salem college has a registration of 234 with forty pupils at the summer school. The receipts were $6,320 or $880.15 less than the expenditutes. This is the youngest college of the Seventh-day Baptist denomination. Memorial was submitted upon the death of Edward M. Thompson, a for- mer professor of Alfred university and of the Education society. Mrs, John B. Cottrell rendered a so- prano solo, ILet Me Follow Where Thou Leadeih, President C. B.
