Higher Education of West Virginia Youths
At the recent Methodist Conference in
Moygsntown resolutions were adopted en-
dosing certain educational institutions in
other States under the patronage oil the
Methodist church. Representatives oil
these Institutions were present and were
heard in their behalf, There was 10
resolution ccmmepdiug the University oil
West Virginia to the young men Of the
State. Nobody was heard in behalf OF the
UniveralLy.
This oversight is to DO regretted. AT
other times the Conference Las bad good
word to cay for the University
The IxTRLLlGKNcER believes that
the University now deserves to
be well spoken of. A radical
reform haa taken place in its management
The moral atmosphere 10 good and excel
lent work Ia being done. There is still
room for improvement, but the change
for the better has been go great that the
people Of the State ought to respond by
doing all they can TO strengthen the banda
which have wrought the revolution.
TIE Methodist church represents the
most numerous aud influential
religious organization in tho
State. 1t represents u great
brdy oitsx.paycrs whose money helps to
support the University. 1t Is the priv
ilege its members to get some return
for their money go spent, This they msy
do, not only by sending their sons, but
by casting their influence on the side Of
the institution, 90 that 1t may DO made
sttongfor the good work Of educating the
young men Of the State.
four youth can be educated at home,
that Is better for tho State in every
way. The cost OF maintaining them
through the college course adds so much
to the general prosperity. They drink in
pride of State which will not DO instilled
in them elsewhere; and there is far great
er probability that they will remain at
home 10 devote their energies to building
up West Virginia, which needs tho labor
and enthusiasm OF all her sons and hes
within her 6otders enough to recompenle
them all.
Such an institution as the University Of
West Virginia Is intended to be, and as
the present management 10 tryingto make
1t, Is to bo preferred to a sectarian college,
which Is not necessarily OF higher
moral or religious tone, and cannot be
expected to be SO broad in lis teaching.
In West Virginia we cannot for many
years hope to increase the numberof our
colleges. We shall accomplish most by
endeayoring to make strong those we
have.
The University, as the child of the
State, appeals strongly to every citizen Of
the State for encouragement and support.
Every right effort of the management
ought TO be heartily seconded by the
people,:
