SPtdAL MEETINGS
Those who attended the meeting last
night were deeply impressed with the
earnest and heart searching sermon by
Dr. Seemann on the theme "Is thy Heart
Right"; The speaker dwelt upon thi im

was a personal question and one, each
one must ask for himself. He spoke of
the signs of a right heart. It must be
a believing, repenting. forgiving, arid love
ing heart.
Dr. Seemann will speak tonight on
"Our Conception of God". Came and
bring your friend and hear Dr. Seemann
who is an able and interesting preacher.

MEETING.OF NEIGHBORHOOD CLUB
The regular meeting of the Neighbor
nood Club on Tuesday afternoon was well
attended and the program was full of in
terest. ,
The study of English Literature was
begun and the lesson study was very ably
conducted by Mrs. George Palmer.
The study began with the writers of the
Anglo-Saxon period.
As in the childhood of any people, poet
ry is the more natural way of expressing
thought or emotion we find that the earl
iest monuments of English literature are
in verse. Foremost among the early
English poets are Beowulf, Caedmon and
Cynewulf.
Prose composition is a later and more
abored development.
The earliest Anglo-Saxon prose of any
literary value seems to have been the
work of the "Venerable" Bede. a monk
who lived from 673 to 735.
He wrote books on grammer, mathe
matics, natural science, commentaries on
the Scriptures, treatises on philosophy,
besides many other works, but his most
important work is the ecclesiastical or
church history of Britain.
In the latter part of the ninth century,
Alfred the Great won feme in a literary
way ard became prominently associated
with the development of English speech
and English prose.
He translated many works from Latin
into the English tongue and made his cap
ut of Winchester the centre of learning
and literary activity in England and from
his schools went forth many noted
teachers.
Near the end of the tenth century, Ael-
fric. following the example of Alfred, wrote
in his native tongue. Among his most in
teresting works is a Latin Grammar and
a Glossary which supplies the equivalents
in many Arglo-Saxon words. He also
wrote a collection of Homi'ies which had
a wide circulat.on.
The Magazine study "A Day in Old Ox
ford" under the leadership of Mrs. Turn
er Oliver, was very instructive
An excellent pat tr or. "Ear.y English
Drama" by Mrs. J. A. Russell, completed
the program of the afternoon and the
Club adjourned to meet t the regular
time, Jar.uarv twenty-seccr.d.
