Mr. McCrady, of Faculty, Comments Upon Doctor Mott's
Manner and Personality.
John R. Mott, LL. D., head of International Y. M. C. A. and leader in
religious enterprises,
other world-wid- e
will address the students of the Uni-sit- y
in Chapel Saturday at the third
hour. The meeting is being especially
arranged by President McVey, in order to take advantage of Doctor
Mott's presence in Lexington during
the latter part of the week at a series
of conferences with the Y. M. C. A.
leaders of the state.
Seldom does the University of Kentucky have a speaker as eminent as
Doctor Mott; who might be called
one of the greatest statesmen in the
Christian world today. Tho he is a
layman of the Presbyterian church
there are few ministers whose influ
ence is comparable to his. Not alone
through the vast organization of the
Y. M. C. A. with its myriad branches
the Eastern and Western Hemis
pheres but through other religious
movements such as the Student Volunteer Missionary movement, John R.
Mott wields a tremendous force in
the upbuilding of Christianity and civ
ilization. The effectiveness of his
work in these various fields was recognized by Woodrow Wilson, who
called him one of the mose useful men
of the present generation.
Mr. Wilson offered Dr. Mott the
post of ambassador to China; yet,
though such a position would have enabled the "Y" chieftain to do much
to commend Christianity to the world
of the Far East, he felt his present
work of more importance, and hence
declined the offer.
Dr. Mott's manner and personality
are thus described in a recent article
in the Lexrnigton Leader (January 28)
by Mr. McCready of the University
