I went to Italy and stualed college life there. I went to Athens. I studied the great "question in Austria, Germany and France, but found that it was here in our universities of America that we will find the men who will be the leaders in tHe commonwealth of thought. . To the college and university is America to-day turning for leadership. The largest leadership to-day is to be found in our universities, and the work of the Young Men's Christian Association is quietly working its way into the heart of the colleges of America. The work of the association must be strong, not flabby; must be vigorous, not sentimental. Squareness, manliness, honesty, justice and high-mindedness are the things that counf, and in the work of the Christian Association we must have great meral earnestness and great moral seriousness.” This morning and evening the following appointments will be kept at the various churches by the members of the Young Men’s Christian Association convention: M. . m.; E.
