THE K I N G ’ S BUS I NESS

les held at Montrose, Pa., from July 8th to 25th was attended with even greater blessing that the first institute held a year ago. There were about the same number of ordained ministers and missionaries present—between ninety and a hundred. Most of these stayed through all the sessions of the Confer­ ence, but some were present for briefer periods. The three teachers were Rev. Dr. Melvin G. Kyle, the celebrated archaeologist of Xenia Theological Seminary of the United Presbyterian Church; Dr. R. A. Torrey, Dean of the Bible Institute of Los Angeles; and Dr. William Evans, Associate Dean of the Bible Institute of Los Angeles. ’Each of these teachers held a class each morning. The afternoons were largely given to individual study, though there were a number of opportunities for informal meetings with the teachers of the Conference. Lectures, for the most part illustrated, were given on many evenings by Dr. Kyle or Dr. Evans. These latter lectures were open to the people of the town and were Very largely attended. Dr. Kyle in his morning work, and largely in his evening work also, took up the various problems connected with archaeological research and with the modern destructive criticism. Those who had already repudiated the destructive criticism were greatly strengthened in the position they had taken and those who had been more or less led astray by this movement were led to see how untenable the position was into which they had been misled. Dr. Evans’ work was for the most part along the line of what is now called the “ Synthetic Method” of Bible study. He gave a very thorough presentation of the Epistle to the Romans and also took up the Pastoral Epistles. Dr. Torrey’s work was an inductive study of some of the great doctrines of the Bible, dwelling especially upon the Bible doctrines of Justification by Faith, the New Birth and Sanctification. He

of the Middle States in the interests of the League, which is' being greatly blessed in its work.
