No?other ^Ncgro studpnt in South Carolina- has received more h^ner^ during his college career than Mr. F<ird",~...Space/ will "not permit a eomplftUi?enumenation, only?the out standing honors will be mentioned. He has served 'as president of the Y.! M. C.

Jj After. tho quartette had rendered a heau.tifiil selection, Mr. Ford was inred uccd by President Antisdel and spoke from the subject "The Fundamcntal Elements of Education." as. follows:-. _ ..? The great object of all education is "he dovelopqment of character. If, in the* loborious^process of this acquisi' ion.^fharacter is neglected, pur education "becomes an em ply mockery and our training is a waste of time.?The doctrine that "Education Makes a Man" has become" so widespread in America that we have gone' on blindly believing in it and its ability to make men and women, without once thoroughly raising .the questibqfWhe-ther or to what extent can education make a man. When we propound this question the problem becomes acute and we- see at once that there are cer- ( tain fundamental elements which must! underlie all true education. The - first fundamental element which is necessary in the making of a successful man is Self Knowledge. Over twenty-three hundred years ago Socrates, the greatest representative of Grecian Philosophy, said "Know Thy Self." His words have been reverC9n^r.'vsi and ?vcP today we must acTiflTt that the educated man without self-knowledge is a failure. Self-Knowledge in its fidlest accep tation requires tliatWe should know^ ourselves in relation to the 3 states, of our existence?the past, the present and the future. Consciousness tells! us what we are, memory tells us what we have been, apd reason, by combining the*facts of'our past and present""! existence, enables us to anticipate J what we shall be. But self-knowledge inthis- comprehensive sense is rarely J .< /: ' - : . ETTO LEADER , c The Ladies Auxiliary, an organiza L tion of the white Presbyterian CKurcl i of the city, as} an expreSsinn of theii 1 interest in the religious and moral up! lift of our groups, sent two members ; of the race to Columbia to receive in: struction in the form of lectures 'aii/j > demonstrations in such important -branches. us_Bjble courses, momestic l science, handicraft and health helps i Those selected to receive the in; struction for Laurens are Miss Rosa Bell Anderson s^nd Mrs. Edgar McCoy. We are. Very grateful fro,, our white friends for their timely intej^st and will assure them that we will profit by it. ' ' * ' The Blue. Bird Sewing Xlub held i ;. T77T7 .. . -? :? ~XJ THE PALM found among educated people. Loot ,';find any number of men and womer with depress behind their names unc .diplomas upon their walls, who art drifting through life with no purpose ; ?like shipwrecked vessels floating with the tide?no rudder?no compass ?no destination. These men and wo[ "? flniiht, hiivo nnqnirnrt n]l the ! culture that western civilization car | impose; they have a delicate sense of ^appreciation for beauty in art and literature, their minds are keej/ in j argumentation and debate; they unj derstand sOme of nature's deepest mysteries. But .they are failures because they do bpt know" themselves. . - Not only is education without selfknowledge a failure but when it lacks worse. The voice of the great Marcus Aureliu* echoes from the past saying "Control?'1 hyscll."?Numberless pages of our criminal records are stained with the names of college graduates, whose characters have been besmirched, whose families have btfen disgraced, and komVdedge has been rendere useless because in those moments of temptation they possessed no self control. * v ?Solomon has spin, "He that ruleth his o^jui spirit is greater than he lhat u!keth a city." No lasting success can be achieved along _any line without this all-important attribute. Alexander the great conquered the known world and wept "because there were no other worlds to conquer;-but was he not conquered.and overthrown by -Hw-onclMiitl^nt?~of-the wine cup? Napoleyh<*climbed the rugged p?aks of the Alps apd there .-mingled the eagles of France with the eagles of the crags; but was he not dethroned" and humiliated by his own ambition? These men possessed unlimited power in controlling others, but' themselves they could, not control. Therefore, all education, which' does not develop^ self-control is false and dangerous. Hut?friends I would not have you believe that selldconwlcdge and seltcontU(J are the onlyelcments necessary Tor the hiiaking of a man. The greatest teacher oT all - the world was a simple Jew of Galilee. One day~when the shadow of thecross was loming large before him, he called his twelve disciples together and through them broadcasted a message to a lost and ignorant worMr- and even today the voice of Jesus may be heard as clearK. i .1:..*: ? *ii-- -1. ^ ami uisiimrniy at 11 was iy centuries ago onjhe plains of Galilee sayten to add that all education which does not encourage self-delnial is vain and undesirable. All the rich legacies of the past have been bequeathed t<5 us only through the process of selfdenial. Booker T. Washington denied himself the comforts and luxuries of a northern environment .and cho^e rather to cast his lot among the black inhabitants of Alabama where iivnnrance walking and superstition ruler of the community; and in the fierce struggle for supremacy he dethroned the tyrant, expelled the ruler. from his*1 priKingeramTt'stabfishod-triy immortal school. Dr. .George W. Carver, Gilt! Of the greatest living scientitst denied himself the glory and honor of professorship in the leading universities of the North and chose rather to Serve the hunifile'studenls of Tuskegcfe for less tlrnrfTmc-ffftfrttitf s~gcftins could deni.iml.. ??-? ?? ?And Iliei'fc ?MV oilers.?Vh hflSt of others whose spirits .of self-denial has made the past illustrious,^Uie prers14it worthwhile and the "future hopeful. '"vThe hiaking of men and women has been the occupation of the ages." If there are any other products higher than man, whether on Mars as surmised hy Profeslor Lowell or on other planets we know it not for Nature's vaster products and processes are still profuuiid.iii.tateries to the greatest scholars of modern progress. Man stands at the top of the evolutionary process so far unfolded. In this process he must continue to perfect himself. lie must follow the gleam. And the gleam leads by the way of higher education, whrrb in its final analysis is the acquiring of self- knowledge? self-com rpt-and self-denial. ' Lauren New? Sunday was an off, day at Bethel A. M.
