man realize what Mr.. Louderback is do
ing here, and they know that no citizen
in the o. years of our history as a city
has done what this one man has in three
months"
Replying to Mr.. Jackson, Mr.. Huesing
said,he defed anyone to show that he
had any personal feeling toward the com.
pany. He realized what it had done for
Rock Island. He believed though. that
the company was only DESTROYS of getting
all 1t wanted from the city, and that Mr..
Louderhack had sought to deceive the
city and that he had told what he knew
to be untrue. The alderman held he did
not care what Mr.. Jackson or any of tie
councilmen though. about it, he proposed
to 90 his duty as he saw it.
Mr. jackson calling up again the mat
ter of Mr.. Louderbsck's expression De-
fore the council that it might not be
necessary to secure the consent of the
property holders, said that he himself had
told Mr.. Louderback that it was a cues,
'ion whether 1t was necessary to get the
consent and had put the idea into his
head, but that Mr. Louderbsck had never
attempted to take advantage of such a
statute even if it existed and had already
gotten the consent of property holders
for any desirable route SO that even if
he thought he had discovered that there
was an error with regard to it not being
necessary to secure tn consent of prop
erty holders, Mr.. Louderbsck had shown
no disposition to take advantage of it
anyway.

Z seems a little quee~ toThe Herald
and News-the utter ignorance Of the
existence of that circular about the
Palmetto School Journal, displayed by
Superintendent of Education Mayfeld.
He says he knew nothing of the matter
until he saw the circulars as published
in the State. That hardly seems pos
sible, but this is strange year. Mr..
Thackston is chief clerk for Mr.. May
field. What action did the State Board
of Education take in the matter? Mr..
Thaekston's reply is awaited with in
terest. Let Us have all the light on
this subject possible and not sit in

COMMENCEMENT DAY.
The sun shone out bright on We'd
nesday morning and the day was hot
a veritable commencement day-but
the people were out in full force and
by an early hour the buggies
and carriages, bearing interested
friends, began to roll in from the
surrounding country, and likewise
those from the town began to wend
their way to the Opera House to wit
ness the closing exercises of commence
ment. Long before the appointed hour
for the opening exercises the hall was
full-aisle, pit, dress circle and gallery.
\ number of prominent gentlemen
occupied seats upon the rostrum.
The exercises were not simply the
speeches of the graduating class, but
also included the awarding of prizes
and medals and the announcement of
the honor roll. The exercises were
opened with prayer by Rev. DR.. Hall
man, Augusta, and the speakers were
presented by DR.. Holland.
The first speaker was Mr.. V. Y.

What q relief from the everlasting

lege commencement! And that, too,
when it is our own college. What
would Newberry do without Newberry
College?
There is much sameness in report
ing college commenceInentS, but II
gives US pleasure to see the bouyancy
of young manhood and young woman
hood on these commencement OcCa'
sions, and the labor of the writing Of
them has its solace and Joy in the life
and the enthusiasm and the hope IN
young men and maidens as they step
upon the threshold of real life. 1t is a
step that is fraught with momentous
issues to them, but we would not mar
their pleasure by its contemplation.
Rather would We enter with them into
the Joys and festivities Of the present,
and with them build hopes and plans
for the future.
The past session OF Newberry College
has been in an eminent degree, a sue
cessful one. The young men have
made a good record and the college
classes have been full and the outlook
for the future is bright and encourag,
ing.
The commencement exercises have
all been up to the standard, and the
friends of the college should be inspired
with new zeal to begin their work
anew, for the further advancement o.
the Institution. It has now passed the
period of experiment, and is no less
necessity than an assured success.

The next speech was made by Mr..

authors of the past and compared
them with those who had more militia

anples of many who had begun life full
of hope and promise but afterwards
went down in disgrace and ruin, as
Alexander for example who became a

DIR. HOLLANDS REPORT TO THE SEMI
NARY BOARD.
| During the session which closed on
the 10th inst, four students were en-
rolled-2 juniors, l irregular, and l
senior. Mr.. w. X. Sigh, the senior,
has been reading the prescribed course,
and practically received no instruction
from the faculty. Mr.. J. D. Shealy,
the irregular student, recited with the
junior class, consisting of Messrs. :. L..
Nease and O. B.,Shearouse. AS far as
lay in the power Of your instructors,
instruction was given to these young
men in Sacred and Church History,
| Dogmatics, EXegesis of New Testa-
ment in Greek, Biblical Theology,
| Homiletics and Pastoral theology, He
| brew and German.
1t will not be possible for your in
structors, in addition to their college
duties, to do even as much work in
your Seminary another session as they
have done the past session. The labors
eXacted Of us in College and Seminary
have been too continuous for US to do
i satisfactory work.
One of two things must be done:
!. Either you must take immediate
steps to provides Theological Professor,
2. Or you must ask your present in
structors to confine themselves to the
junior years course.
In the event Of your being able to
secure an acceptable Seminary Pro-
fessor, the session of 1912 would in
all probability open with 3 seniors,
middlers and 2juniors.
In case you do not provide said Pro-
fessor, members of the middle and
the senior class must 60 to some other
school of theology.
Two great difficulties are in the way
of your securing Seminary Professor,
(a) Finding man who will meet the
wants of the meagre salary the church
is able to pay, and (b) the inability of
the Board of Trustees to sustain the
College apart from the Seminary fund.
The synod has placed the Seminary
fund at the disposal of the College Trus-
tees. and any action that you take rela-
tive to the election of a Professor must
be ratified by said Board.
The relation of the Synod of South
Carolina to the United Synod Of the
South, in the matter of Theological
Seminary for the Church South, also
presents perplexing aspect to the
question before you.
Praying ths t you may be Divinely
guided in the important matters before
you, am yours fraternally,
G. w. HOLLAND,
Chm'n Faculty.
