From an aroused and indignant conscience have sprung the mightiest endeavors of humanity. Evils, impending and present, have incited minds and hearts to the greatest sacrifice, the noblest achievements. Congregationalism had its birth in deep conviction. The "nonconformist conscience" to this day, in the land of its origin, is the term most generally employed to define the attitude of our churches in England toward moral and spiritual issues. Two centuries the churches of the Pilgrim Faith had been established in America when Mormonism arose to threaten the social and religious well-being of our people. Against this insidious foe many were persuaded after long consideration that the Christian school was the most effective weapon. They believed the teacher could get a foothold where the preacher would not be given a hearing. The New West Education was an answer to a call from God. The founders of the society' were leaders in the churches. The busiest of men were its trusted administrators, and they gave with commendable example of their money and their time.
