'During his administration as principal the school attained to its highest point of efficiency, having during that time received rating as a State High School. Not only in the schoal-robm was his great influence felt, but he a silent but powerful force in the community. He liked to mix and mingle with men, and advise them and direct them. He was a man of upright and virile character, and moved upon a high plane. The exten of his splendid influence can 7 never be properly estimated. Such an influence as his in making for peace in a community by exercis-_ ing "cool judgement and common sense is hard to replace. Such a man sits in the Hotisl> of the In terpreter.

I wish to say with enrph'ftsis that teachers, in schools who do not possess PsofessionaT Ethics and Charac ier Education in. and outside the .* classroom in impractical way along essential lines of religion, are * mostly responsible for the retarding of satisfactory citizenship. Such teachers, without a doubt, should have no official position in an institution of learning. "I believe, or.e among the few schools that, will he up to date and headed in the right direction with' new curricula for next year, as an example, is the State College for Negroes at Orangeburg, S.
