The noted educator and orator who is a leader in jnterracial affairs in the South was urged to remain aver to speak ? tonight (Monday) at ahothCr huge gathering at the Second Baptist church which will be attended by members of both races. ^ For many years Dr. Morris was -widely celebrated throughout the nation, as the "boy-orator" during which time he was heard in practically every section of the United States. On the occasion of a former visit ta South Carolina he was guest speaker at Coker College. 'Hlartsville, which event was widely reported by thp Associated Press. Two years ago he.delivered tl\e_annual commencement speech " at Schofield School here to a vast outdoor multitude. Although h e had come to this city and section prijnarily to. rest, he was almost immediately pressed into service. Friday morning he was "heard at final exercises of the summer session at Bettis Academy, Trenton,. whei-^he told the assembled teachers that when times are hard _ that the,, must get hard with the times. Whether life is worth living depends altogether upon the liver for when we do .not -find it so, we may make it so. Dr. Morris prarsed unstintedly the tremendous forward strides which South Carolina has taken in the field of education He declared that it was littl^hort of a modern miracle to reflect upon the fact that a complete system of free public education has been developed in the South for members of th<? Negro race. H5" ' challenged his hearers to be worthy of the benefits which accrue to them. . .. , At the eleven o'clock worship service ' at Friendship Baptist church on Sunday the guest preach n oaoorfo^ frhof .TocilQ tlPVPl' Ulllf. ed men by what they had, but rather by what they were. Wheaiever* a contrary policy is adopted cha^s will result he affirmed. Brilliant as a word-painter he pointed out the ills and evils of "our present civilization which may be correct? ed only b? the love of God operating1 in the hearts of men. At 'night he saixl that although the world knows about Jesus that unfortunately it d?es not know Jesus. There are two kinds of knowledge, viz: The fypowledge of information and the knowledge of acquaintance. Christianity as a way of life has scarcely been tried he declared. By almost unanimous consent Dr. Morris was prevailed aporr to" femaTn over and speak Monday night at an interracial mass meeting at the Second Baptist, churehT " He will motar to Orangeburg for an addiess cm. Wednesday ev jening; to Edgefield for u?speech on Thursday evening; and t o Graniteville for a public appearance Friday night/ Next Sunday, July 24th, he will speak on three occasions at Augusta. Ga, including a preaching engagement in the mocntag1 at the Thankful Baptist church.
