Christ and Christ-work. Health, piety, and life-devotedness are the conditions of entrance. Languages, ancient and mod cm, the usual course of the theological seminary, and the added Special branches preparatory to their life-work, form the curriculum of study. All is gratuitously provided. The care of the house and grounds is the only equivalent rendered by the Zbglinge. Thus the doors are thrown Open to the poor, by whom chiefly, as well as to whom, the Gospel is to be preached. Otherwise the institution were a failure. The hope of heathendom lies with the humble. Not many mighty, not many noble, are called to this work.
