STATE AID TO HIGHER EDUCATION,
Dr. J.C. Kilgo, president of Trinity
College presented the following pream-
able and resolutions :
Among the many vital questions ap-
pealing to the church for solution, none
is of greater importance than education.
The principles of our religion inspire
the largest intellectual aspirations as
well as the greatest spiritual develop-
ment. ~The church has, therefore, al-
ways defended education and through
the centuries, been the source of our
educational progress, Should thie
church.cease to be interested in educa-
tion, ignorance would multiply, and all
real educationa! progress would be at
au end,
But besides the history of the church
in education, it.is bound by the highest
interests of our individual and_ social
life to maintain an aggressive education-
al policy. Infidelity has hid itself in
science and enthroned iteelf in colleges
jand universities, wud by a distorted
and incomplete idea of education, has
wrought great barw. Along with all
jeducation must go a: purpose to build
up a faith in God, the only sccure foun-
dati¢a for national or individual lite.
U.uerwise, the worst results are to be
expected from education,
in our Own State, as well as in ovher
States, there is a cenflict between the
State and church in educational work,
and especially in the work of higher
education. In many ways this want of
sympathy i is manifested, and the church
is forced to carry forward its educutional
work in the face of this oppusition.
Muny of out people do not unde: stand
the position ot the church ip education,
und there are many sincere people out)
side of the charch' who do not under.
s.and it. The time has come for this
conference to define ita position in edu-
cation, and settle an educational policy
that itywill;detend and develop. ~There-
fore, be it�
Resolved, lst. That we commit our~
o| selves ~uncom
promisingly to, Uhristian
cation, and jnsist that.our. people in
t» homes: teach their children the
~aontties of Christ, and patronize those }..

2nd. Thatwe regard the free public
schools a necessity to: the State and we
declare ourselves fully in sympathy
with them. These schools are for the
people, and should be made efficient.
We favor a sufficient tax to operate
them at least six or eight months in
the year, and we pledge ourselves to
do all in our power to develop a public
sentiment that will secure this result.
3rd. That while we do not think it
the function of the State to teach re-
ligion in ~its colleges, and while w
recognize the fact that there are many
citizens who do not wish to patronize
shurch colleges; and while we haye no
disposition to exterminate or do injury
to State colleges, yet, as citizens of
North Carolina, as well as members cf
the Methodist Episcopal Church,South,
we do not believe that it is just to the
church to tax its members to earry on
an ~educational work to the injury of
the churcb colleges, or to put the
State colleges in unfair . competition
with the church colleges. We believe
that it is out of: harmony with the
principles of our government, ard mor-
ally wrong tor the State to undertake
to furnish free higher education to the
few at the expense of the many, and
therefore that all free tuitions in the
State University, in so far as they are
based upon the appropriation of public
monies, should be discontinued.
That we request the legislature to
discortinue the appropriation of public
money for free scholarships and tuitions
at the Uaiversity.
4th. Knowing that the income , from
tuitions is not sufficient to meet the cur-
rent expenses of a college or university,
we are not opposed to appropriation to
the University, but we thiok these ap
propriaiions shvuld te limited to such
umoupts as are necessary to meet the
deficiency in current expenses after tul-
tions have been collected from all stu-
dents, except those to whom private
scholarships have been given.
Sth. That as the aim of the State in
the establishment ot the Normal and
Industrial College at Greensboro, N.
C., and the Agricultural and Mechani-
cal College at Raleigh, N. C., was to
provide technical aud not highel liter-

The Art of Being Patient.
A wise man in an address to young
men advised them to learn the hard-
est lesson in the world"the art of
being patient. He said:
oDo your duty and leave: success
to take care of itself and then you
will see the wisdom of the old prov-
stance, how hard it is to learn a dif-
ficult subject. All the ideas are un-
familiar, all the words are unfamil-
iar. We go on laboring and seem to
make noway. Now this disheartens
nine students out of ten"the niné
out of ten that will always be ob-
scure people"but the tenth man
goes on. He works harder and hard-
er, he lets his mind play around the
subject, he lets the ideas of that sub-
ject soak into his brain, he is deter-
mined that nothing caf possibly re-
sist. persistent effort, and one fine
day a great flood of light comes in
"he suddenly sees aH about it. His
work is easy, his work is delightful.
Everybody says of him, ~What an
amazing amount of ability that
young man has.T No, it was not
ability, it was patient perseverance.

Leprosy is rare in most civilized
countries; even in Asia Minor it
causes lesa than 1 per cent of the
total death rate. Typhoid and scar

for 3 per cent; diphtheria and pneu-

deaths from consumption alone,

one-third of all deaths occurring in|
the medical wards of hospitals are
due to tuberculosis, and that a fifth
of all surgical cases treated"many
of which are cured"are tubercular.
We may bring these statistics
home by saying that you and I were
born with one chance in five of dy-

Ancient Bracelets.
Among the Greeks bracelets were
worn only by women, but among
the Romans they were regarded as a
military decoration, and in monu-
mental inscriptions the number of
bracelets conferred on the subject is
often stated. They were of thin
plates of bronze or gold. Sometimes
gold wires spirally wound were
used. Some bracelets weighing 20
ounces have been found.
