A NOVEL PHILANTHROPY.
The Log Cabin College Settlement In
the Mountains of North Carolina.

The Log Cabin College Settlement In
the Mountains of North Carolina
The latest movement in feminine
philanthropy is the log cabin col
lege settlement proposed for cree
ton in the mountains of North Caro-
lima, not very far from the famous
Vanderbilt castle. Miss Chester, a
sister of the organ master of St
Georges church, and who spends the
greater part of every year in the
North Carolina wilds, has offered her
idea for development among the
earnest young women in New York
who would be interested in the men,
tai and moral Advancement of their
mountain sisters. She has found
them, she says, as needy in spiritual
and intellectual elevation as the wo-
men of the slums Education and the
refining influences have not yet PEN
etrated to those barren but beautiful
regions, where ignorance unhappily
does not produce the bliss of SIM
plicity or a wholesome, robust,
and pastoral existence. Therefore
the necessity of carrying some light
to the women of the isolated uplands.
The plan is to build a fine, large
log cabin. fill it with good books,
pictures, and the suggestion of what
the mountaineer's wife and daughter
could do in the way of softening and
refining even her crude surroundings.
The gospel of teaching through
friendly intercourse is to be closely
adhered to as in the slums. with a
broader scope for the best sort of phil
anthropic work than has yet been
found anywhere in this country.
The mountain women are, first of all,
Americans; they are not uninteHi-
gent, they have strong and correct
