To he employ- ' efl for such a period iti a ity | Public school system is exMaordinary, and one must conclude that such a person is a rare char- i actor. That is the record of Mrs. t Mary H.

While her reputation is that of 1 an energetic, efficient teacher, yet! by no means is her usefulnesses ~ ' ' I .'onfined to the school room, differing "in that so much from tSe rvelage school teacher.

Committee for Needy Children and for years a member of the County Fair committee. The Carrier Street Public school owes its existence t<> her. though she teaehes in one of tiit- other -chools.

VOICE FROM THE MOUNTAIN By Rev. B.F. Stewart The interdenominational Ministers Alliance of the-Hub Citv has . . I <iono voiy constructive woi r among the ministers ol" the city ami their congregations. It meets weekly at different ehurches in tile city and within twenty miles around. La>t . week was one o f those high spiritual meetings in .whioh a?large number of- the brethren- were pit-sent. In the-abseiivv of President Means, Kev. P. K. Mingo the,.vice - preside^Chpresided. As* the weather is getting hot and the ministers will soon leave <<n fhcir vacation and other walks of life, the brethren thought it we adjourn in a high class, order, therefore it was suggested tha,t tlie alliance put on-a picnic lor ministers, their wives and children. The date lor the picnic will be June. 2b, near a mountain lltke about 25 miles from the eity. The wrilei imagines that this will be a big affair' lor the ministers and ,their wives. It is hoped by the alliance that every minister will go and* carry his wife, if not all his children.. It is true that every mil ister of the city should have his wife to know the wife of his fellow ministers ami it is hoped that this occasion will serve at leasi m . acquaint uii'iu. .>e?s come to the writer that the Morjh*?woilegc quaitet will be at the Thompson St. Baptist church 011 Molality night .Every Baptist in the city should hear these boys and he. proud of what their, boys can do when propertly trained. We are expecting to have this quintet at New Trinity at Wellford in the near future. Well, many of our teachers are leaving for ?uminer school to better acquaint themselves with their work for next term. The writer -Uiiirks-iL-AViiuIiL-be a line ' thing if we. could have a summer school or a Idngi r- minister institute for our ministers to attend.- Since the teacher and the preacher are the chief source from whicTT our race must be fed for intellectual and spiiitual development. The minister as 'cell as the teacher should have a message for those whom he serves. My prayer is that this will be realized in the near future. I lu' ini'iiiM ator hi tne npurtunl)ur}? association has summoned the executive board to meet at the Macedonia Baptist chu'chon Saturday Jure 'J(i to map out a proglain for fhe association which it eetsoM i hoi sday and Friday helore the Mist Sunday i; Septemuew i'if > very year. _! ALLEN CHRISTIAN ENDEAVOR LEA CLE OF SO. CAROLINA Continued fioin Fage _j AciSording to information, we ^ are receiving fru'm here and there people from every nook of South Carolina will be in Columbia to the State S. S. and League meeting and i hope the program committee will put on a catchy program that will attract and draw people. R'rry *dl politics and as much as possible ministers should be led't olf the program and let the laymen take it. Fet us (minis'ters) prepare our lessens, be a student and do a question box. It would be a very nice thing -if Ltr. Bcnn could arrange wixhthe local committee for those who1 care to st: y on the campus free, providing .1 they bring the necessary bedding-. They could take their meals at Robinson's cafe, which is near the campus or any other place they may desire. It would help in several ways, cutting down the individual 'expenses and help the pastors to-collect educational money this fall. Say what you please and regardless what any presiding elder may say hundreds of members are saying that Allen university is no goo7T to them and they can send their chldren to State, O'.aflin, or Benedict just as reasonable as they can at Allen and some say under ( nnt PAijtijgro lbadbb certain conditions, -they can ge better financial terms. If we cai get our delegations who' desire i' to stay on the campus free, tKi pastors can explain this kind ac' la..JiicirL-t'nngregation.>i and drav comparison from other schools thereby making a good score, ii favor of Allen. Pastors have to be very tactfu in raising Educational Monej these days, the new leaders in oui local churches" now will not tak< merely statements from ihe.pul pits.
