Mr. Houghteling's Address

Mr. James L. Houghteling of Chicago, the founder and president of the Saint Andrews Brotherhood, delivered a vigorous address to the churchmen of the University last evening at the St. Paul's Society rooms in Phillips Brooks House.

Taking as his text James Russell Lowell's words, "My Life Shall be a Challenge not a Truce," he pointed out in a striking and forcible manner the vast good, men and especially college men can do by the example of steadfast and honorable living. He said it was principally for this purpose that the St. Andrews Brotherhood had been formed, and to this it has owed its great success in a large measure.

If men, when they come to college, make their lives a challenge, and by their actions as well as their words, stand for consistency and high principles, they will spread a contagious influence among their fellows which cannot help being felt.
