An Educational Council
By Frederick Griggs
During the recent meetings of the General Conference Committee, its educational department has been organized. It consists of the following-named persons: W. W. Prescott, W. A. Spicer, Fannie M. Dickerson, E. A. Sutherland, Frederick Griggs, M. E. Cady, L. A. Hoopes, J. E. Tenney, M. Bessie De Graw, C. C. Lewis, Dr. E. L. Eggleston, B. E. Huffman, E. W. Catlin, H. A. Washburn, and the Corresponding Secretary of the Sabbath-school Department. L. A. Hoopes is chairman, and Frederick Griggs is secretary. Any four members of this committee, the chairman or secretary being one, are empowered to transact such business as is in harmony with the general plans outlined by the department. The General Conference Committee have voted to hold an educational council at College View, Neb., June 12-21. It is especially desired that the heads of the union and intermediate schools, and the union and State superintendents shall meet as many members of the General Conference Committee as can attend this council. In addition to these persons a cordial invitation is extended to any who are interested in our educational work to take part with us. We are very anxious that this council shall mark the beginning of a period of great progress in the educational work of our people. Other announcements concerning it will follow later. FREDERICK GRIGGS,
Secretary of Department.
