Newberry College Starts With Ove Two Hundred at. Opening Day Cheering Words. Newberry College has begun th< sessionl of 1900 tuder very flat-terinl prospects. 'Tlhe enrolilient, this week is upwards of two Iihndred, whiell is the largest nnber for the first week in the history of the institution. Under the changes which have beer made in the curriculum there was do lay in making assignmient, but om Friday 212 had been enrolled. Practi. cally all of the old students have re turned( and with them come autj new' ones. THie college classes are all full and in the graduating class ther4 will be about thirty or forty. Alto. gether the prospects for the institu tion in the first year of the second century of its existance are very en couraging. Twenty-nine years ago when the college returned to Newberry, after a Sojourn at Walhalla for about eight years, there was not a building on the campis, and the first few months of the school were taught in the upper story of a store rooi in the town. At that time there were only two pro fessors in the college proper, and two in the preparatory department who were adjunct professors for the college classes. The total enrollment amounted to about sixty, and five to seven was coisidered Ia fairly good graduating class. Before the end of the first year the main building oil the college grounds was completed an(I the sessions were held there. Dr. (leo. W. Holland and Prof. Dan Arrington dlid the greater part. of' the teaching and it was well done. for boti of them were equipped to t(each 1113 branch in tile curriculum. Even then tlie course of study was as far alvanced as it is now and the Y011un", mlen who went out from the in stitution were well drilled. (1raduallv and steadily the college h1:s grown, not only with the Luth eranli delollillnation ill this state to which it belongs, bIt with the people of Nevberry of all denomilnations wh 1( feel that il is their col leg in a tlwelliar sense, and while file institioniul is tle property of the Litheraii chireh, it is inl no sense see tarian. 'This is;realized by the peo ple of this community, for whenever : call for help is made the response comes from all classes of our people. Only last year, when Mr. Carnegie ma(le his offer of $10,000.00 on con dition that a. similar amount he rals ed, it took only a few hours to meet the conditions and the money was raised right here among the friends of the institution. The faculty now numbers some fourteen professors, and there are fi handsome buildings on the camptr used for the work of the college and three residences for professors. The ,ymnllasiumtt building is just complet ed and thle new te.chnical building, mlade possible by the gift of Mr. Carniegic, is near completion. The formal opening of this session was held in the college auditorium lFrida.v mnorning. The mRain address wits mad(e by Rev. WV. H. Greever, editortof the Lutherani Chutrch Visit or ii, S. C. Mr. Greever' spoke of the idleal purpose of education. Tn thle first place hte said flhat the first ideal1 was t(o help a student to find himself,' to give him self-conscious as to fill his placee in the world. He Mhp(iu li'e im port ance oif self kniolwledlg-, so t hat one1 would not over est imtat e himselfC or his ability, no(r wounld lie undervalue his enpacity. -lin the secondl pla1ce he referred to lie true life purpos)0e, and said it must include God( and his glQry. Another ideal.::of edutcationi was to help the individual toi fintd: the trute life pur .penee, in - thir words, help him find his ealliu. Another purpose of tihe ideal eduication was to acquaint the indivi dlual wvith his inv'iruments. Every in fluence whtich surfrotunds uts in life is either a help or a hindrance, and the ideal education would acquaint one with his environments, so that these infltences might be helpful. The ideal aim of education, however, is to equip the individual for his life \vork, taking into account his strength and his weakness. He concluded by ad tmonishinig the student body that there was no0 true education, wvhich did not recognize God. It htas been the custom for a number of years to invite also at each opening thle pastors of the town to extend a welcome to the students. In ac e-ordance wvith that custom President Scherer presented Rev. W. L. Sea brook, pastor of the Lutheran Church, who said that he had qome merely to speak the greetings of his church and his own greetings. to the young men and young wornen,. who had come to cojlege. He said lie un~s glad to see them here and was always glod te have them worship at the Lutfheran church. lie fel theb he could do bet ter work ~fter the, o@.ae opened, b cause the students ar and 1i0 brought them .his hea t,reotings. The great work which 'e ,'ive to do Oc in the world is to rhel fellow1 man. Rev. G. A. Wright, he Baptist church, was also call4d: on and ex tended his greetings to-'h student El body. He spoke of the -growth and se dovelopment of the institution during eli the past fifteen years, since lie had S been in Newberry, and said hat some Oi men who were at the college in its ro infancy were now old .men, but a ry college never grows old. Newborry or college may now be laying the founda- ed( tion for future usefulness. le said cl that the college was our college and the faculty our faculty, 'nd spoke of to the good will and good' fellowship, di: which went out to the institution pi from all the citizens of Newberry. Cl Dr. E. P. McClintock, who is the gr oldest minister in continuous service Al in Newberry, but who on account of R< ill health resigned the pastorate of mi the A. R. P. church about a year ago, at also extended his greetings to the lai young men. He said it was a matter of esi congratulation that the purpose of by the parents of this country was to mi send their children to college. Another w( fact which impressed him was nearly of all of the colleges in this country are by christian colleges, ang that the presi- C. dents and professors were christian men in larger proportions than ever ed before in the history of this country. W It was a great pleasure to him as an fo, old man to note that fact, and it was tll cheering to all of us, who had spent w. our lives in God's service. eo, Rev. B. M. Greer, pa.stor of the hii Methodist church, was also present fo, and delighted to see so many hand- an, some young men anil young wonen ont thi the roll of Newberry college. He said tal lie would welcome them as a Method- pa! ist, minister and was glad to -welcom them all to his church, vould be gad wa to have them and to see their success. Nc Dr. G. B. Cromer, who was for t eight years president. of the college, il and who is now a member of the thif faculty. was called on, but said that. dai he had nothing to say except to add ed his Amen to what had been so well the said by those who had spoken. Dr. Scherer stated that there were wa very few rules adopted by the facil- lig ty for the government of the institu- ly tionl, but among these there was one tot which he desired to impress upon the thie student body, and which he would ex- no pect them to observe, and that was In that the faculty confidently -expected ma all of the students to act asehristian pe, gentlemen and christian women.' an< For a good many years this editor ag, has been attending the openings of ati, Newberry college, and it is always a doi pleasure to see so many young men fill and women eager to secure a christian education. At all of these openings there haa been preswit Chief Justieo Y. J. Pope, who has been a member of the board of trustees since the re- tle turn of the college to Newberry. Un- ftt fortunately he wvas unable to be:pres- the en Friday on account of the meeting at of the Supreme court in Columbia. ye,n The faculty were all present except In Prof. Kieklighter, who L3 recuperat- it ing from a spell of fever. wh Meteorological Record,.a September, 19063.

Evangelical Lutheran Church Upon his professiqn of personal faith in the Lord Jesus' phist. He remain ed a faithful, consistent iielnber of his church unto the end, ever. ready to spend and be spent f& i'er good and prospority. 'Nearly all his life he was an officer'of his church, serving as an elder for 20 years, having been called to this office in his 27th year, and holding the officeb of treasurer for 25 years. Thus he lived and died in the faith, and we confidently believe that he is now enjoying the rest prepared for the people of God. In his death, St Peter's congregation has lost a true and tried . pillar, and a'Wise counseller whose word and deeds will be missed in the councils and ao tivities of our church. March 16,1808, he was married to Ellen Georgeann Lorick. This union was blessed by four children, Samuel F., proprietor of the Columbia Hotel, and of the Wheeler Hotel, Henderson ville, N. C., Dr. Jacob S., of Prosperity and Henry F. and Martin L. who live on the old homestead. Mrs. Wheeler preceded her huband to the spirit world more thai 11 years ago, having departed this life Feb. 14, 1895. As a man of affairs Mr. Wheeler was eminently successful. Being quick to act when opportunity offered lie accumulated a large property, which lie managed wisely andi well. As a citizen and a neighbor he was always ready to give his time and his means for that which he believed to be for the public good, and for the good and comfort of his fellow man. In the church, in the state, and in the community, lie filled an unique place: and his counsels, his energy, and his presence will be missed in all these different paths of life. But lie is no more. On the 1st day of May, 1905, he was stricken with paralysis. He rallied from this stroke, but several others followed until Sept. 10th his spirit left its tenement of clay, and was wafted to the world be yond. ' He suffered much, but lie is now where the wicked cease from troubling and the weary are at rest. Besides his wife, five sisters and two brothers preceded him to the world beyond. He leaves - to mourn their loss, a sister, a brother, four sons, and one griand child. besides a large circle of other relatives and friends. On Tuesday, Sept.11, his body was laid to rest in the cemetery of St. Peter's (Piney Woods) Lutheran Church. The feneral services were conducted by his pastor. the Rev. E. J. Sox. The active pall-bearers were C. S. Matthews, L. B. Frick, Geo. Krell, D. C. Boland, J. Adam Amick, and D. W. Frick; the honorary: L. A. Frick, J. J. Cannon, Joshua Shealy, Luther Koon, A. 0., and 0.
