BIG FUND FOR EDUCATION*.
i
General Education Board Announces
Appropriations.
New York, .May su.?The general
education board, a Rockefeller philanthropy,
made announcement tonight
of new appropriations for the
purposes of education, aggregating
$596,650.
For the purposes of further cooperation
with the State universities
and State departments of education
in the South, in the development of
secondary schools and rural schools
for both the white and negro races
$140,650 is subscribed for the cur
rent year.
/ Announcement was made that the
board had inaugurated several new
y lines of educational activity. It has
resolved to enter the field of educational
investigation, research and
experiment by assisting research
workers connected with institutions
of learning as well as by supporting
independent investigators and experiments.
In cooperation with the State superintendent
of .Mississippi, the board
plans to perfect a model county organization
in one county, through
the development of the county agricultural
high school as an effective
community centre ior me enure population,
adults as well as boys and
girls. This is intended as a demonstration
which it is hoped will be
imitated throughout the State and in
orther States.
There is a Time.
1 ~
There is a time, we know not when,
A point we know not where.
That marks the destiny of men,
1 To glory or despair,?
There is a line by us unseen,
That crosses every path?
The hidden boundary between
God's patience and His wrath.
To pass that limit is to die:
To die as if by stealth:
It does not quench the beaming eye,
rrl r\rt' Af hnoltll

The conscience may be still at ease,
The spirit light and gay; ?
LThat which is pleasing still may
please,
And care be thrust away.
He feels perchance, thai all is well.
And every fear is calmed:
He dies, he dies, he wakes in hell?
Not only doomed but damned.
Oh. where is that mysterious bourne
By which our path is crossed;
Beyond which God Himself hath
sworn,
That he who goes is lost?
An answer from the skies is sent?
Ye who from God depart,
'While it is called today repent,
And harden not your heart.

Story of Two Aspirants For a Placie
on the lioat Crew.
A few seasons ago. says a prominent
crew coach in Outing, two men
were competing closely for a seat in
tha "varsity" boat. One day I called
them together and said:
"Just now you two men are working
equally well in the boat, but one
has a better scholarship standing
than the other, and to me that seems
to indicate that one of you has a
little more personal priae man me
other."
As a matter of fact, the man who
i
was not up to the scratch in his work
was a bit the better of the two as
far as smoothness in the boat was
concerned. I thought the incident
might cause him to pick up in his
classes. It did not. When the time
came to make a final selection of the
eight I again called the pair in to
see me.*
["It's still hard to decide between
you two. I would just as soon have
you throw a coin to decide the win*
ner," I said.
The man with the poor scholarship
record was the first to speak.
"That's all right with me." he said.
The other man thought for a minute.
I saw his mouth go tight. Then
he said:
"No. sir; that doesn't suit me.
One of us must be the best man. 1
want to know which and to know
why I am not the best man."
r Some people would probably have
thought that fellow conceited, but
not if they knew what it means for a
youngster to put in months and
months of hard training for a crew.
The second man was of a quiet type.
I but after he spoke I knew the thing
f that every coach is most anxious to
find out?that he was the kind who
would he pulling hardest when his
' ^ lungs were feeling like bursting in
that last hard half mile. You can
guess which man got the place. The
man who did not was too easily satisfied.

MT. LASSKX IX ERUPTION. (?=
; Fears Felt for Safety of Those in!
Danger Zone.
Redding, Cal., May 30.?Lassen
Peak burst into violent eruption
again today. Another flow of boiling
mud is reported pouring down //
the sides of the volcano. Fears are
felt for the safety of those in the \
danger zone.
The eruption today was the first J
since me destructive uuiurean. ui
May 22 marked the first anniversary I
of the peak as an active volcano.
As there having been heavy snowfalls
since the outbreak a week ago
it is believed the flood of boiling mud
will be even greater than the last and
will inundate a large territory.
When the eruption occurred many
persons were known to have been in
the surrounding territory, and even
on the peak itself. T

the meetings would make a line extending

Billy's monetary tribute from i
Philadelphia, if changed into silver i
