Professor George H. Palmer addressed the Saint Paul's Society on "Some of the Significations of Lent." He said that the reason that a special season like this is set aside especially for worship is not because at other times there is to be no communion with God, but because during the secular life, worship is apt to become too much subordinated. At the same time it is with Lent as with a college course. A may come to college and think when he has finished his four years that his education is complete, but if this is so he had better never have come to college. If a man thinks that because he has kept Lent in a certain way, his religious duties are then ended for a year he has committed a grave mistake; for the secular world is not, as he thinks, without the guidance of God.
At a business meeting after the address, T. A. Jaggar '93, was elected secretary. A committee of three is to confer with Rev. William Lawrence about sending a delegate to Cleveland, Ohio, to a convention of students concerning missionary work.
