The President appointed Messrs.

The report of the Central Committee
was read by Dr. Wingate.
The President then asked God's bles
sing and direction in regard to the ad
dresses and reports just made.
Dr. Sears led in prayer.
Drs. Pritchard and Wingate delivered
brief addresses on the subject of endow
ment of Wake Forest College.
Dr. Wingate thought it very impor
tant that brethren who might be select
ed as canvassers should feel the impor
tance of the work to be done, and to
make it the great work of the year.
There were difficulties in the canvass.
Our population is generally a country
population and it is therefore harder to
reach them than;if they lived in cities or
towns. We may not expect what our
numbers would seem to indicate. We
will have to take canvassers from men
who are employed, and earnestly em
ployed, in other work, and our number
of men who have the ability to conduct
a canvass of this kind successfully is
small compared with our Baptist popu
lation.
On motion of Elder Ilutham the re
port of .the Executive Committee was
received.
On motion of Dr. Pritchard, the sub
ject of the "Present Condition of Ed
