John Farr met his appointment yesterday at Bethlehem, but as the congregation were absent he went on to his next appointment at Lockhart. We trust they were more faithful ones there.

The Times and the Metropolitan Magazine for only $1.80 a year* % i * The Sooth's Educational Opportunity. t Adding to its wealth at the rate of $3,000,000 a day, the South has an opportunity for educational in. vestment unparalleled in American j history. . Infinitely greater in value than its mineral and timber wealth is [ the South'8 wealth in its undevelopp ed boys. There are tens of thous, ands of poor white boys throughout ? the South in whom there are latent abilities which, if quickened and developed and utilized would make them great leaders in Southern up. building. The finding of a lx>y who has such abilities and the development of that boy into a real man, a leader or men, is far beyond the discovery cf a new ore or coal or gold mine. The opportunity which the South will henceforth afford to -such boys is greater than can be found in any other section of this or any other country. How shall we find the boys and how shall their abilities be utilized to their own good and to the blessing of the South? A few years ago the Manufacturer's Record suggested that in view of this situation business concerns and the people of means throughout the South shoulh undertake to aid in the techinical education of poor white ln>ys. The rich need no help; the poor boy needs not charity, but he does need assistance. In every technical school in the South there are a number of boys who are paying for their tuition and board by working their way through college. Some do this by work on the farm connected with most of the schools, often up at 5 o'clock in the morning milking or doing other farm labor in order to secure the opportunity to get a technical education, while others arc employed in the dining-room or about the building doing other manual labor. Fortunately for the honor and good sense of the scholars in these schools, those who work their way through do not in any way lose social caste or position. On the contrary, it very generally happens that these boys are of such force and strength of character that they arc leaders and men of honor in the schools. Where a dozen* or maybe 15 to 20 boys can find employment in this way and be able to work their way through college, there are hundreds of others seeking similar opportunities who cannot be accepted, because in these schools there is only a ccr~"ttriir-an?unt of work to be done 'and only a limited number of boys can thus be employed. Some of I the presidents of these technical (U'lumlfl tn uilirilil nr?nli/>afii>na nro made have said to the Manufacturer's Record that their hearts have ached at times because of having to refuse so many who desired only the privilege of working their way through college. No longer can the people of the South plead financial inability to do this. No longer can they shirk the moral responsibility to carry on the broadest educational campaign ' ' that may be needed to fully equip 'the rising generation to meet the opportunities which arc already at I hand. Providence has blessed this ' section with a vast increase in wealth. Within the last five years the real wealth of the South has increased by at least $3,000,000,000, of which over $1,000,000,000 has been added in the last 12 months. Thousands of men arc well-to-do and other thousands arc rich who a few years ago scarcely dreamed of ever getting beyond the immediate needs of the day. Wealth is ac- j cumulating everywhere, but this! wealth will prove a curse unless the people of the South utilize it for the development of manhood by the training of the boys who should become the leaders in the material advancement of the next quarter or half century. The responsibility is upon lis, not upon our neighl?ors. It is upon the South not upon outside philanthropists. ,With an increase of $1,000,000,000 a year in the South's wealth it would be a disgrace to our manhood for the South to be begging for alms from the people of other sections to carry on its educational ' campaign. ?Manufacturer's Record.
