To the Editor of the Crimson:

After college--what? The answer to this question is discussed many times during the college year in meetings large and small. Here various fields of work are contemplated, the advantages and disadvantages of going into the profession of the law, medicine, and business are taken up. And now comes another such meeting to consider the profession of the ministry.

From February 3rd to February 5th there is to be held at the Episcopal Theological School here in Cambridge a "Conference on the Ministry." The object of this conference is not to study for the ministry, but to study the ministry. We propose to consider objectively its opportunities, its purposes, what constitutes a "call," what the need is, and what qualifications are required to be a good minister. Men of all denominations are welcome.

This is the first and most important function of this conference. There will, however, be a broader field discussed. It is true that for the most part the men who are running this conference and who are to speak are ministers interested in recruiting, but they are the first to realize the necessity of having efficient and active laymen in the church. One of the most important steps toward this is to have the laymen know well what the ministers are up to.

If anyone is interested in the ministry--either from a professional or a non-professional point of view, let him write to me at Christ Church in Cambridge, and I will be glad to give him the details. Rev. Frederic B. Kellogg.
