teacher.
To teach school 58 years is
rather a noteworthy record of itself.
That is longer than the average
person lives. 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. Wrijfht of Spartanburg i
according to tfie splendil tribute t
of her appearing in the Sunday t
Spartanburg Iferad-Journal June t
20th.
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. Instead
he gives and spends herself in
those things which mean a better
people and community. She assi'sts
m the supervision ot FEe"
playgrounds for colored children;
since the World War, she has been
the chairman of the colored division
of the County Red Cross
chapter; she founded it home for
aged coloied women which is also
used as a day nursery ar.l Bible
school; is chairman of the Christmas
lice. 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. It would svtin fitting
.hat t he Spartanburg School
Hoard would honor such a teach*,
i by., giving that school a really
expressive name Mary II.. Wright
School, t'eitamly her record is
deserving of that. Columbia had
a teacher with a record similar

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.

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
