President King's Work utside of berlin 'l' is well known that President King gives Hrst place to his administrative and teaching work at home. But he is in constant demand outside of Oberlin. I-le is recognized in educational and religious circles as a man with a clear and helpful message which thoughtful people everywhere are eager to hear. He is an intelligently progressive leader, and as such is honored and trusted and has a strong influence far beyond the Oberlin constituency. ln the National Education Association he was on the Committee of Ten on Secondary School Studies. Among recent appointments have been addresses before the North Central Association of Colleges and the Con- ference of the Colleges of the interior. He is one of the Ohio Committee on the Cecil Rhodes Scholarships. A-Xt national gatherings of Congregationalists he is a frequent speaker. He is to address the coming Uctober meetings of the Triennial National Council and the ,-Xmerican Board. Courses of lectures at Harvard, Northwestern and Chicago Cniversi- ties extend his acquaintance and influence. His books, Rvc1111st1'11c1'1o11 111 Y'!11'oI0gy and Tlzeololey 111111 H10 5011111 t'0115t'1'o115111'.t.v have given him a con- spicuous place among American theological leaders. The most recent testimony to the position which he holds as a religious teacher is his appoint- ment rwith Professor Peabody of Harvardl as one of the two speakers who represent the Cnited States in the department of Religion at the lnter- national Congress of Arts and Sciences to be held in connection with the St. Louis Exposition. ln the application of religion to daily life President King is especially helpful. The great Training Class which he has led on Sunday mornings in Uberlin for the past nineteen years is always a point of attraction to visitors. ln the Boston Congregationalist he conducts the very practical department called the Professor's Chair. :Xt Northwestern University the coming summer he gives a ten days' course of lectures on Psychologys Hints for Life. At Young Xlen's Christian Conventions and Conferences he has made various addresses which have been published by the International Com- mittee and are widely circulated. He is a member of the Executive Board of the Religious Education .-Xssociation. He was active in organizing this new and important movement and his address at its first convention was one of great power. lt is possible for President King to respond to only a small fraction of the requests which he receives. llut so far as consistent with his duties at home these outside invitations are accepted as a part of that larger service which the College can render outside the circle of its own students.
