NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The Northfield Student Conference will be held as usual this year beginning Tuesday evening, June 19, at 8 o'clock, and continuing to Friday morning, June 29. A program fee of five dollars is charged all delegates, while the cost of board and lodging will be $15 from supper on June 19 to and including breakfast on June 29.

An unusually good program has been arranged, and though the number of delegates from Northfield territory will be reduced because of the war, the Conference will still be of considerable size. Those colleges and universities that usually send their men to Eaglesmere are this year sending them to Northfield.

The speakers this year are exceptional. They include such men as Robert E. Speer, Robert P. Wilder, Charles R. Brown '77, Henry Sloane Coffin, Charles W. Gilkey '03, and George Adams, a British preacher. There will be special gatherings for foreign students, student volunteers and theological students.

A new feature of the Conference will be a course of training in athletics leadership. The afternoons, as usual, will be given up to athletic sports.

The grounds of the Northfield Student Conference are convenient both to Northfield Station, on the Southern Division of the Central Vermont Railroad, and at East Northfield Station on the Boston & Maine Railroad. Special reduced railroad rates have been secured.
