GOODING, Idaho.—President Charles Wesley Tenney has just received word from Superintendent J. E. Baker that the Methodist board of education, with headquarters at New York, will grant Gooding college an appropriation of $9000 the coming year.

Before making this appropriation, Secretary A. W. Harris and the board of education were assured by the trustees of Gooding college that every effort would be put forth in the intermountain empire to raise an amount equal to $1 per member in each and every Methodist church between LaGrande, Ore., and Green River, Wyo.

This collection, if taken in full, will more than match this outside appropriation, as there are more than 10,000 members in the Idaho conference.—Salt Lake Tribune.
