From the time the ground was

dation for this attractive building,
ltev. R. C. Anderson, president of the
Mountain Retreat Association, has
given the closest personal supervision
to every stage in the progress of the
building, and to this fact is due to
a large degree the reasonable cost at
which the auditorium has been erect

ed and the splendid quality of the
work that has been done in the build
ing. The walls have been built of
native stone brought from river and
creek beds not far distant from the
building site, and, with the exception
of the huge steel supports and the
roof material, practically everything
used in the building of the audito
rium was secured in Bumcombe Coun
ty; and the same is true of thte build
ers of the auditorium, for all of these
workmen are community men who
have worked with conscientious inter
est and with native pride in the build
ing; and the plans were drawn by an
Asheville architect.
There are nine doors through which
admission to the auditorium may be
gained, and six or seven aisles led to
the platform over a slightly inclined
concrete floor of perfect quality,
which was made and placed by Mon
treat men. There are twelve attrac
tively arranged class-rooms on the
gallery floor of the auditorium, and
provision has been made for the plac
ing of the gallery, with a seating
capacity of 500, at any time that it
becomes, necessary. The alcove re
served for the organ is unique and
adds much to the artistic arrange
ment *of the building. The acoustic
properties of the auditorium have
been pronounced perfect. It is prob
able that visitors to Montreat will find
nothing about "the auditorium more
enjoyable than the seats, which are
all that could be desired in point of
comfort. Mr. Anderson gave a num
ber of helpful suggestions when the
plans were being drawn for the audi
torium, and the seats are the child
of his brain entirely, . and it I9 safe
to Bay that no single feature of the
auditorium and its equipment excels
the seats, ?which are altogether unique
in design and manufacture, the frame
being formed of the strongest moun
tain wood and the portable back and
seat having 2 foundation of iron pip
ing carefully woven ( with hickory
splits, this weaving having been done
by the mountain people.
"Dedication Week," during which
special exercises will mark the dedi
cation of the new auditorium, will be
held July 21st-26th.

BRYAN ANSWERS 'DARWIN, IN HIS CHALLENGING BOOK
IN HIS IMAGE
By WILLIAM JENNINGS BRYAN
266 Pages. Cloth, $1.75
"In this book Mr. Bryan deals with some of the fundamentals of our faith, not in a
technical way, but in a way to appeal to the masses of our thoughtful people. He is
quite at home in handling the subject of religion. No public man of modern times has
ever spoken and written more constantly on religious themes than he. not even Mr.
Gladstone. His long experience as a student and teacher of the Bible, nis unsurpassed
power of effective popular statement, and his unique command of the world's attention,
indicate him as the right man to speak a reassuring word from the layman's point of view
to those who in our time have been confused by current skepticism, especially to those of
our voung people who have been unsettled by the teaching given in tneir schools. One
need not agree with him in every point of detail in order to appreciate the Value of the
service he has here rendered the evangelical faith. The first three chapters, on God, the
Bible, and Christ, are concerned with the foundations of religion; most of the others
deal with applied Christianity. Hon. James M. Beck, the eminent publicist of Phila
delphia, though disagreeing radically with most of Mr. Bryan's political views, says he
has affected the public thought of America and the character of its institutions more than
any other political leader of our day and generation, with the single exception of Theodore
Roosevelt. There are many who would not even make that exception. This book is
going to have an enormous circulation, and it will be interesting tOLpbserve the extent to
which the author's already nation-wide influence will be increased oy A is sturdy defense
of old-fashioned religion." ? W. W. Moore, President, Union Theological Seminary,
Richmond, Virginia.
