1.
This is one of two conventions about missionaries that I know about Fred attending. You can find out about the other one here: There may well be others that I haven't come across.
2.
Chairman. J. H. Kellogg, M. D.
Wikipedia says:
John Harvey Kellogg (February 26, 1852 – December 14, 1943) was an American businessman, inventor, physician, and advocate of the health reforms advocated by the Battle Creek Progressive Friends movement and the eugenics policies espoused by many in the Progressive Movement. He was the director of the Battle Creek Sanitarium in Battle Creek, Michigan, founded by members of the Seventh-day Adventist Church.
It was John Harvey's brother who invented Kellogg's Corn Flakes:
Many of the vegetarian foods that Kellogg developed and offered his patients were publicly marketed: Kellogg's brother, Will Keith Kellogg, is best known today for the invention of the breakfast cereal corn flakes.
3.
The fight Against Opium, W. A. Hemingway, M. D., China.
Lots of the talks are about interesting topics. This one makes me wonder: Did W.A. Hemingway mention that the British fought the Opium Wars in China so that the Chinese government would not ban the British importation of opium into China?
