The emphasis given in thisproject to educational demands is entirely church can retain its hold upon the publicheart and mind which does not dominate inChristian learning,. The plan of the Methodist Episcopal Church,South, for improvement of its educational facili-ties has my heartiest approval, and the breadthand liberality with which the plan is conceived ex-cites my admiration. The supreme aim of all wise-ly ordered education is the elevation of CHARAC-TER, and this requires not merely knowledgehut wisdom, and not merely the wish to be goodand to do good, but acqaintance with the properand most effective ways of carrying out that makes it Impossible to realize the aim of edu-cation without giving to the religions nature itsdue importance In the well-being of man—boththe Individual and society. =m M-E-CHURCH • SOUTH
