THE HAPPY THORNWELL CHILD
By DR. D. J. BRIMM, Clinton, S. C.
THURSDAY; JUNE It, ISgft
“The Child” is the hope of the
church, the nation, and the race a 1 the Tech, an4. m the girls in the re-
mere truism, to be sure. The happy
child is the greater hope of all these.
The-trained Clyistian„chtld is the
greatest hope of all* These last—the
happy, trained Christian child—are
the Thornwell idea in theory^ practice
and fruition. The home environment
Ihe Christian atmosphere, the free
expansion of individuality, the almost
total) avoidance of the “lock-^tep” idea,
the generous, solicitous parental care
of godly, superintendent, matrons,
teachers, and other consecrated'work
ers, careful provision against evil as
sociations, wise -^and sympathetic
farm, in the dairy, on the campus, in
fectory, the laundry; the Infirmary,
and the homes. ;
As testimony to the effectiveness
of the home life and atmosphere, we j
have only to nolo t v, c rrrrfe tl at they*
cyi^ce ir after life in their having
been reared here, the eagerness and
frequency With which they return to
visit the old home—the same spirit
with which children in an ideal family
love to revisit the old hearth-stone.
As testimony to the fine industrial
training, we have only to point to the
large number of efficient workers in j
various fields—farmers, printers, elec-1

ness the merry laughter and song as
tliey fill to capacity one of the trucks
and go out for a littlt* spin around
town, or off for an outing to River
side, or go out in parties berrying or
"plumming,” or come to the college
gym, or athletic fields for a g^me.
One of the most beautiful passages in
the Bible, to my mind, is in the de
scription of the millennial reign of our
blessed Lord, when Zechariah tells us
"And the streets of the city shall be
full of boys and girls playing in the
streets thereof.”- (As I have referred
to these truck rides, a suggestion oc
curs, that some one with a bank ac
count give these young folks a hiee
large ► motor bus for rides around
town.)
From that first Christmas morning
in 1908 when, unacquainted with the
Christmas bonfire custom, we jumped
out of the bed before day—it was
cold, too—to learn what on earth was
the cause of all the glare and shouts
and merry shrieks, punctuated by bell
ringing and explosions,^-from then
to the present day we.have noted, with
