The question of food for so large a student body would be a small matter. Every student should Re-. COMPELLED to be in the classes in truck gardsning, farming, fruit raising, poultry raising arid darying, in canning, with the most modern machin sry; and no student would haw +? io a great de&l of manuel work jither.

And since we ire doing so little real Missionary work and this Divinity School being in reality a huge missionary project we could use much of our missionary money in this direction; In tact the secretary of Education, Secrttary of Missions arid the two Presidents of the Connectional Women's Missionary Societies diould be members if the Board ofothers selected by the .General Com mission spoken of*in a previous article.
