THE sixteenth Lake Mohonk Conference was no exception to its predecessors in interest. The unwearied hospitality of the hosts, Mr. and Mrs. A. K. Smiley, brought together a large number of guests, many of whom took part in the proceedings. The Report has been abridged as much as possible, according to instructions, but it is hoped that nothing essential has been omitted. For convenience of reference the Platform is printed in the beginning of the book. BOSTON, January, 1899. 7 44 37 |
