GiOOD DAY FOR COLLEGE. Stirring Rally of Lutherans in Cal houn County, at Old Mount Leb anon Church. St. Matthews, July 14.-Newberry college was in the hands of its friends at Mount Lebanon Lutheran church, three miles below the thriving little city of Cameron, today. This church is the outgrowth of the old St. John, "a German-Calvinistic church on the Four-Hole," incorporated by the leg islature in 1738, and long since ex tinct. This Mount Lebanon section is strongly Lutheran and is one of the most prosperous sections of the State. When the Rev. James A. B. Scherer, a former president of Newberry college, as straining every never to secure $50,000 as a prerequisite to a gift from Dr. Pearson of $25,000, this congrega tion contributed over $4,000 of the sum. Messrs. W. D. Hauck and David Haigler, two prosperous farmers, and Mrs. Ann Zimmerman, a generous Christian woman, contributed $2,500 to the sum. The church was full to the tloor and the people seemed greatly interested in the speeches for their institution, which they love so well and patronize so faithfully. The high class music by the choir with Miss Carrie Haigler at the organ, was one of the most en tertaining features of the occasion. The Rev. J. C. Oxner, the popular lo cal pastor, acted as master of cere monies in the absence of Mr. Jeff D. Gates, the president of the College Re union Association. The Rev. W. H. Greever, D. D., of the Lutheran Pub lication house, Columbia, made an ap propriate introductory prayer. Dr. T. H. Dreher, of St. Matthews, was the first' speaker. He was proud of the honor of being an alumnus of Newberry college, and it was his con stant aim to bring no reproach upon her; takes a practical view of educa tion; useless to force square pegs in rou'd holes. In these days of graft and corruption he pointed to the splen did record of Newberry's honor roll, and their records, unstained by the disgraceful riotings of many educated men. The Hon. Geo. B. Cromer was then introduced. He was in fine trim and made a most stirring appeal for one hour, which made a fine impression. He is a man of splendid presence, the king bee in the Lutheran hive of South Carolina laymen, and is immensely popular in this section. He portray ed in his own fascinating and impres Sive way the strides that have been going on in the Lutheran church from small beginnings and numbers. There Is the Lutheran Seminary in Columbia, which can now be sold at a profit of $40,000. He gave facts of the remark able growth of the Publication society and Japanese mission work. Graphi cally did he describe the opening ol Newberry college in 1877 in a photo. graph gallery at Newberry; the sac rifices and the splendid work of the Newberry notables, such as Drs. -Smeltzer, Bachman, and Holland, whc never tired nor grew weary. 'He drew a beautiful contrast between those humble beginnings and the marked changes which have come about. There Is Holland Hall, the gymnasium, thE technological department, the profes. sors' homes and the Keller building all during the last few years: 'ThA fihest endowment of the college has been the steadfast and unswerving loyalty of her alumni. He warned thE fathers and mothers that they wantec a God-fearing people to take theil places in business, in politics, in everl walk of life. This is the fount whici must be kept pure in order to keej this Commonwealth from the sham< and riot which has so disgraced it. President J. Henry Harms, of tha college, was then introduced, an< made a splendid speech. He presenti a fine appearance, the picture of healti and strength, and ,is now occupyinm the highest seat in the Lutheran syna gogue, at an age when most ambitiou and brainy men are clutching desper ately at the lower rungs of the laddei He wished only to come as the rea guard to take the names of the younh men who will attend college next ses sion. He asked the significant ques tion, "What is Newberry college?" an' answered that it is the spirit and de votion of those who have gone before stressed the splendid loyalty of th alumni, complimented the young me: on their interest in these reunions and what they had accomplished. Th Lutherans were small in numbe compared to those of other denomina tions, but this was largely compensal ed for by their sacrifices and heroi efforts. Competition is fierce, but froi this crucible have always come tb great and noble things of the worl( Every pastor, save one, of the Georgi Lutheran Synod, is a Newberry colleg man. Education sets a mnan fre makes him large and broad and stron but there is an education surcharge with a genuine spirituality and grac which Newberry undertakes to insti a. an antidote to scepticism, which the tadly bane of the home, of so ciety, and in all the avenues of human endeavor. Wished to refute the charge occasionally flung out by the jealous and the envious that Newberry college is a factory for the making of preach ers. He was proud of her record along that line, but she makes almost anything, from a minister to a canoe -including S-horse dynamos, aero-t planes, etc. Complimented the far mers upon their magnificent agricul tural conditions among the highest in the State. Last summer he was basking under, the sunny skies of Italy, but is in the fight to the finish this season, and he was expecting the best opening in the history of the college next Sep tember. The Rev. J. H. Wilson, of Orange burg, pronounced the benediction, and; a picnic dinner, peculiarly character istic of this hospitable community, was spread out on long tables for the edi fication to the inner man.
