Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Working Conference on the Union of American Methodism: Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, February Fifteen, Sixteen and Seventeen, Nineteen Hundred and Sixteen, Harris Hall, Northwestern University, Evanston, Illinois The John R. Lindgren Foundation of Northwestern University was established April 1, 1909, by John R. Lindgren, of Evanston, a Trustee of the University and its Treasurer. The Fund is held by the University, but the expenditure of the income is controlled by a Committee of Direction which is self-perpetuating. The members of the Committee designated in Mr. Lindgren´s deed of gift were, the Rev. Charles J. Little, late President of Garrett Biblical Institute; Abram W. Harris, President of Northwestern University; Mr. John R. Lindgren; Mr. Helge A. Haugan, of Chicago; Rev. Henry C. Mabie, of Boston. As at present constituted, the Committee consists of Abram W. Harris, Mrs. John R. Lindgren, Rev. Henry C. Mabie, Mr. William A. Peterson, of Chicago, and Professor Frederick C. Eiselen, of Garrett Biblical Institute. Professor J. A. James, of Northwestern University, is the Secretary. The purpose of the Fund as fixed by the donor is, the Promotion of International Peace and Interdenominational Harmony. The Committee at its first meeting decided to seek the ends of the Foundation, by the general methods of investigation and education; for several years, the Foundation offered to students throughout the country prizes for discussions of the problems of international peace. But the Committee had it in mind to serve the cause of interdenominational harmony when opportunity offered. The negotiations for the reunion of the Methodist Churches in the United States, action taken by the last General Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, and the approach of the General Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church, which will receive and consider the action of the Church South, suggested the desirability of making Methodist union the topic for the work of this year.
