Excerpt from From the Thames to the Trosachs The Epworth League, aiming for the complete Christian character, recognizes the importance of intelligence when superadded to an earnest spiritual life. The man of God needs knowledge, and not only knowledge in the word of life, but in the world of thought. Therefore in the course of reading of the Epworth League it is proposed to have each year at least one book of general literature, such as will enlarge the mental range and promote intellectual effort.
