At this conference two papers were read
and discussed. The first day’s discussion was on
“The Inpiration of the Bible,” led by the under-
signed. Rey. Lash, of Salisbury, preached an able
and truly Lutheran sermon at night from Eph. 2,
8—10. The gist of his discourse was salvation
through grace by faith in our Lord and Savior
Jesus Christ.

Wednesday the Rev. J. McDavid, of Charlotte,
read a timely and instructive paper on “The Train-
ing of Children.” This was discussed at great

His theme was: “True Love for Christ the ‘Test

Thursday afternoon the closing exercises of the
College took place. Four young persons graduated
from the Normal Course. Many were present to
hear these young people speak and to shake their

of Concord, had for her subject: “The Use of
History.” Mr. Will Hill, of Greensboro, delivered
an oration on “Life’s Stepping Stones,” and
Mr. Artemas B. Cash, of Winston, spoke on Music.

grateful.

The new College is a beauty surpassed by none
and equaled by few. We cannot describe it in this

the past. May Te bless Immanuel College and
make it a blessing unto our benighted race, until
Ethiopia shall stretch forth her hands unto the
living God. S. Doswett.

and save us. — Luther.
