A WEEK, *2.00 A YEAR CHANGE NAME CF LENOIR TO-DANIEL RHYNE COLLEGE Lutherans Honor Name of Great Bcnefactcr?r-Gives School $300,000.00 Charlotte Observer. Hickory. Nov. !G.?In announcing: the gift of $300,000 from Daniel E. Rhyne to Lenoir college, on condition that the college raise a proportionate amount, Dr. C. H. Panneeke of Xew j \ork told the North Carolina synod I of the United Lutheran Church of > America, now in session at Kings j Mountain, that this is the second i largest gift ever made by any Luth- j eran to the work cf the church, and j the largest gift ever received by the j southern Lutheran church. * The board of directors of the col- ; lege recommended to the synod that j the name of the institution be chang- ( ed to "Daniel Rhyne college." This will be the first institution in the Lutheran church to be named after an individual benefactor. Native North Carolinian Daniel E. Rhyne is a native of 1 3 . ? North Carolina, a cesfe::u.sau the old Palatinate stock. He was born 61# years ago, in Mecklenburg county, lie starred with little education in the cotton mill business and was markedly successful. His original mill properties, the Laboratory ; mills, outside of Lincolnton, have become famous. For some years Mr. Rhvne hasHaken a growing interest in Lenoir college, and the training yf boys end girls not likely in the ordinary run of life to secure an education. In 1919 he gave Lenoir cclicge ?100,000, qn condition that a total of ' Tj.. Uol? vs-nf 'h:'H $300,000 be raiseu. XiC Uuo > tA with keen interest the remarkable , growth, of the institution since that! time. . j . In nuking the gift, he stated: "I feel that I can do nothing finer in my life than to see that for years to^come boys and girls of North Carolina have a chance for a Christian education, and I especially *" see that the poorer bjys ar?d girls receive such a chance. Our state has a splendid future. I don't doutt bat that it will be the ieading state in the South. In order to be thac we must not only make investments in material tilings, but we must now make investments in the far more important things of Christian character and training. Outside of Lenoir college, Mr. Rhyne has done a great-deal for Lutheran churches and other church enterprises throughout the south. HL total gifts to the Lutheran church in the last four years are considerably beyond a half million dollars. Elaborate plans are under way to develop Lenoir college into one of the strongest, if not the strongest, Lutheran college in America. J A Most Notable Gift Dr. Pannkcke, in announcing the : g;ft to the synod, said: j "This gift v-111 enable Lenoir college to become the standard college of the Lutheran church in America, i It means a statesmanlike development that will give Leno?r a com-: mantling position in our church. If is an appealing thought to think that j the south, considered poor by our ; northern church, should thus take the 1 lead. "Tnov-tahlv. too, this development of Lenoir will advance the cause of j every Lutheran college. Christian education is the life and future of : our church. We are just be*:nn:r.-r to realize ito importance. Nothing, could so have helped the band of ir.cn i fighting for standards in the educa- j tiona! work of our church as this defi- j nite and unlocked for advance in a section from which 1: was least t:-:- I pected. "For the Southern Lutheran church -- it mo.irs : owe1*. "nis ?,"iTt. i-s msc^x iv. * - i grow th, influence in this important: period of the south such as nothng1 else could have eriven. The South has, awakened. It is advancing faster than j sttiy part of our land. It will continue ; to do so. A church which does not: grow with that advance will be hope- j lessly left behind. I.enoir college is ' enabled tc become a strategical con-: ter in the life and future of th Sou-j them Lutheran church.*' i Misses Lola Floyd, Ida Mae Suberj and Mary Worts spent the week-end | with Miss Alma Floyd. i THE TAX BOOKS ARE READY FOR COLLECTION | I County Treasurer C.
