HERE FROM FLORIDA
Rev. E. W. Way, of
The Founder And
First President
(Continued from E^age Seven)
was small of stature, never robust,jor
rugged, always frail. His eyes were
weak,-often giving him trouble and
causing him anxiety. His hearing be
came Tmpaire4^-and in hi^ later life
he was very deaf. He was so deaf he
could pot hear, so blind he could nqt
see, ao feeble he had to be supported
as he walked. This was the last few
years of his life. Notwithstanding
all he was not only president, but the
directing head of the orphanage.
While it was necessary for him^ver
to exercise care concerning his health
he possessed marvelous energy and
did an enormous amount of work, as
must be seen from the fact that he
was pastor of a large church, presi
dent of a great orphanage and gave
time and thought to the college. Re
did the work in all of them better
than many men would have done in
one.
He was thoroughly, systematic. He
was careful of his time. Many peo
ple Waste enough time in which a
worth-while' life work might be done.
After the* larger development of the
orphanage he gave his mornings to
that work, but no matron or teacher
could expect to see him at other timei
about the work. ,
In his work of promoting the or
phanage he used, from the human side,
the psychology of suggestion. He
would drop a hint He would relate
a story. He would tell how some other
need had been met. He would suggest
a need. He would call upon God in
yer and await the answer. How

believed that God deals directly .with
men. As Abraham, Joseph knd Paul
lived their lives in the light of that
fayt, so did William P. Jacobs. Grow
ing opt his convictions and afte^ seek
ing God’s way in prayer, he was firm
in his determinations.
There is mo need to mention the
great fact of his life, that he was
interested in‘and loved children. He
said if ever a-monument should be
erected to Iris memory he wanted but
two words on it, “The Child.” He
was a pioneer. He. thought in advance
of his years. He lived ahead of his
times. - _ . .
Ones of the items in the Progressive
Program of the church in the recent
years has been: “A chun^i paper in
every home.” Dr. Jacobs- tried tp ac
complish that fifty years ago and he
recorded the number? of families who
were taking the church paper.
In recent years the General Assem
bly established the Mission Training
School. Dr. Jacobs conducted mission
training classes as far bark as the
nineties. Today several who studied
in those classes are giving the gospel
message in foreign lands.
The whole church measurably ap
preciates the value of childhood and
feels its responsibility for the needy
fatherless children. Almost every
Synod has its orphanage. It took Dr.
Jacobs to jsad the way, quicken the
conscience of the church jn this mat--
ter and set a standard not hitherto
dreamed of.
His training was received under
men who believed and taught that it
was not the function of the church to
qngage in the work of education. That
view was held by Dy. Thornwell and
ethers.- Yet, Dr. Jacobs swung away
from that conceptian and was instru
mental in foufiding a great cljprch
college. *r-T ' —
The outstanding characteristic of
the man was ,his belief in prayer.
Thornwell Orphanage in its ^reat. his
tory and present splendriLirroportions,
is a monument *0 Dr. Jacobs* belief in
and practice of prayer. Its record is of
answered prayer. Muller‘told no one
but God. Dr. Jacobs wrote ’ of and
told his needs to men, but that did
not lessen his earnestness in telling
God. He looked to Him to move the
hearts of men. One illustration must
suffice. ..On Monday the impression
came to a merchant one hundred apd
fifty miles from Clinton: “I should
give ten per cent of next Saturday’s
sales to Thornwell Orphanage.” It
was brushed aside. On Tuesday the
same impression came again. There
was a thought of sending some old,
but‘useful stock from the store. On
Wednesday the impression came with"
stronger force than ever. The man
said to himself: “I will do it.” It
was not mentioned to any of his as
sociates. Saturday gave the biggest
trade ever had. Three hundred and
ten dollars were sent to Dr. Jacobs,
On acknowledging receipt of this
amount^ he said he had been praying
for three hundred dollars for a spec
ial object.
