We know from past experience that such a marker is in need of ample protection from the vandal horder of "Tarheelia" who boldly lay claim to him who is our very own. +?: TOO MANY OENOMINA T1UNAL C OLLEGES. Much has been said and written recently by partisans of both state and demoninational colleges in behalf of these institutions, but the most pertinent comment we have read is an editorial from the current issue of the Walterboro Press and Standard. Mr. Smoak. the editor strikes at the root of the matter when he declares that there are too many denominational colleges for any one of tVlfm rofoiim Q/tannnf o VW t VVUI ? V CUIV'JIUUC port. The editorial follows: In certain sections of South Carolina there seems to he a concerted action to array the1 state against the denomination- j al colleges. We regret to see this feeling spring up, and cannot see wherein any good is to come of it. The colleges have 1 been working harmoniously together, and there seems to have been room for all of them till quite recently when the denominational colleges have begun to increase too rapidly for the! support that is available, and when the friends of these colleges see them losing out and and verging on failure, some raw of- thenj seem to be willing to drag dowh the state institu-l THE tions along with their own ill i 30UTI advised colleges. 1 SPE The Press and Standard is of; the opinion that there are tool Judge many denominational colleges, dent One male and one female col'ege for each denomination is not . . too many, but when the denom- ^ nations undertake to support a ?? greater number, it can be donel,.* only at a loss and the elFort will' (A' ,a * be doomed sooned or later to! ^ t . failure, besides crippling the ;? one college of the denomination . ?, , . which could succeed. This is > V r evidenced by the many little , " colleges, and quasi colleges, . hich the Baptists have tried to , rV maintain. Had the Baptist de-| I f nomination been content with j , i urman and the Greenville fV1 Woman's college, there would ' have been little room for a ('?, campaign against the state in-l , stitution, but with Coker, Lime-; c^Ud'1 stone, Anderson and Green- j 4 \ il'e woman's colleges, and sev- tiffed? cial boys colleges, there can be .in's ?] but one result, and that is finan-'" cial stringency, and poor equip- WON meat, and the ultimate closing of one or more of the institu- Mrs. I tions. Ma; The state is in position to do much more for the colleges, and it is the duty of the state to Mr. support the cause of higher ed- have r ucation in a non-denomination.- where al way. The wisdom of main-! 'uothci taining scholarships has been the r proven over and over again, Steele and the best investment the: ?rdcal state can make is to educate too mi poor boys and girls who could| power not otherwise get a collegiate* . Last education. This the state will i tormed Continue to do, and should con-ia^on? tinue doing. The thing for the weight: denominations to do is to look es*heti at their problems in a business Mrs. way and to close up such of h their colleges as are not self- w ^ P supporting, and consolidate en(lura them, giving the consolidated re^ar"! college the means to be proper- ()Perati ly equipped and to support their '()r Dr. students as well as the state -ml- Die en< leges are supported. It comes iivt\ with bad grace to have leaders of any denominations crying Con-eci down state institutions, and we' trust they will not endeavor to Duri create any feeling that will in-1 dosed iu re the cause of h if her educa- than tion in the state. i a.--t lUlieCl HEATH SPRINGS.
