WHY MORRIS COLLEGE
SHOULD HE SUPPORTED
By R. A. Fishburne
J
Sumter, S. C.?A teacher mustf
not only know to teach, but he or
rhe must know how to teach, am.'
to make that, teaching interesting.
The ability to inspire our create interest
in tho one, or ones being
taught. Must be possessed by the
one, or ones teaching.
The above names subject under
discussion, came-to me some time
ago as I sat in the class room under
one of my instructors, drinking
from his spring of knowledge,
as it poured fourth from his audible
lips.
I am mentioning what happened
here at Morris college on Thanksgiving
Day as such happenings
Certainly bear some illation to the
subject.
Large number o" visitors were
' present from i.fiferent parts of the
State who played well their parts
in contributing to the rally. With
their <^poporation and that of the
entire student body, facufty,
friends, sympathizers and supporters
of the school through out the
State, the sum of ($3,16G3) three
thousands one .hundred ano sixtysix
dollars was raised,
i - It is the?common &nd often re1
peat ted expression, that Morris college
is the pride of Negro Baptists
of South Carolina. If that'
true, then We should oo every possible
to emanate and demonstrate
, t hat. pride. In our pride, wo
should to the word, show the a
liility of the Negio to do, control
and manage big things. Our pri V
: nuist by proven by our deeds and
' actions- as well as by <our words.
Talk is cheap, action co>ty. First
uK !i,' Morris college should be supported
because it is the pride ?.
the Neero Baptists of Eolith Caroj
lina. I am not unmindful of what
Negro Baptists have e?one ' for
tlieir ideal school *in the past and
of what they are still doing and ol
the sacrifices being made at prese-nt.
They need to he corgrattfattd
and complimented. I am not
ovenkioking the support being
given n?w, but the two main points
1 wish to stress, are that the pres j
ent support-is justified, and tfiat
i 1 )tn r*t\v t i n i\m\ *\?w1 af
That additional support be given
on the", part of those who are not
making any contribution whatever
to the support of the school. If
we are giving our support, let
Jhat support be given according as
Providence has prospered us.
Secondly, Morris college should
he supported to show our approbation
for our Jnheritance.
Our fathers and._mother?i -foun-'
"tors of this schou', sacrificed, svf
o.red, an^ labored with faith and
e vision of the future generation,
aid and raised up an educational
platform and institution for the
religious training of the State
"id denomination of N^gro Baptists
in South Carolina. If we are
pro'.ld of our, inheritance an?V
wish for the work, to know it,
Then we shou d nurish, support
and do every thing possible for its
co.itiiination and development,
Thirdly, Morris college should b-:
-uoporte for the principles foi
which it stands. An institution as
well as an individual with or.t a
principle or principles isn't very
much. The thing that makes m(eil
and institutions great is the principles
for which they stand. Mor'is
college stand-* uncompromisingly
for the religious education uf
' Negro youths. It strives to a
I waken and dev elop the spiritual". as
| well as the intellectual an ? physical
sides of the *ifo of the ?ti?
I dent-.. Unless more "-tress is laid
<>n Christian education, our pros*
cnt day civilization is headed for
the whirl-pool of a puady matri.
TTsm and vegeheracy. Morris coi1,!
elge aims to keep the fog of Christ
-j-\?> )>,?idvtfhr-nnd pi iii'.'l[>tFg'" rioating
| : in the air. Our educational stria* ;
ture must be built upon the pillars
' | of Christianity and the religion of
' j the Christ. This is the ask* t<
J which Morris college has assigned
l~ herself. K\Pn .now is she h-adeo
' hy a Chi islinn Inn,'or, composed of
' i faculty ci'j Christian teachers,
| ?truggi ing to Qhristianize a-, well
! as educate a body of students.
fourthly, Morris college should
he supported for what it is doing
: j for the demonstration and Negro
1 ! Baptists of South Carolina^
j There are pro ?..ots of Morris
college in the different localities
. all over South Carolina, serving
i their respective communities and
. inuftc invir nnu'i" and
happier places in which to 'Mve.
' What information, instruction
and training the graduate get here
they carry them back to tneii
I conummttttrs;?impart and deposit
t i them there, making their local
t ities brighter and better. Our
churches are giving their supporl
^ this school in the form ci dollars
r and cents are receiving in returr
t trained leaders for both religious
, ard educational work in their
] communities. Not only is Mo.-rii
c ' olp ire making her contribution
t to the educational and religious development
of South Carolina, but
through out the American Nation,
Such stalwort leaders as He\s,
t O. C. Daniels, B. F. Stewart and
' S. C. Campbell am., host of others
a>e examples 0"? the wonderful
contributic<n Morrjs college is
< making to Negro Baptists in
! South Caro'ina in particular, and
to her citizens in general. Every
' year number of Morrisites are
nnurinw "
? iuvu vanuus sections Ot
the. state to take their places an!
! play their parts upon the stage
I of action,
j Three hundred and five thousand
> (305,000 Baptists in South CaroI
, lina giving-a ($1.00) dollar a year
. to the support of Morris college,
> woulw relieve all financial embar_l_ressmeivts
and enable the school to
| sail sbnoothl'y on the sea of suc,
cess and development. Can this
I be dr! ? ? (Oui) French, Yes, it
can be done. What has been done
Ion Thanksgiving Day is a demonstration.
