DR.. Mayo on Winthrop.
A Prominent Peabody Trus.
tee Praises the Girls
School.

Rock Hill, April 21.-As stated in
a letter last week, Dr.. A. D. Mayo, of
Boston, has beeo for about 10 days Wis
iting at Winthrop college. aud as also
stated, be is making his visit thorough
one.
Realizing that news from such an 10
seisution, one of which all the State
should be proud, would be Of interest
to readers of The State, your corre-
spondent yesterday evening called upon
DR.. Mayo to get his impressions of the
institution. He is one OF the most in-
luentiai of the trustees Of the Peabody
fund, and mas for Is years devoted bis
life aod talents to the noble ministry of
education, selecting the south as his
field of labor. Coming then. from such
a man, an opinion would be most val
liable.
10 the pleasant interview which DR.
Mayo gave upon the broad poTtico of
Winthrop college. he spoke al length Of
the condition of The schools, especially
10 the country, which called for better
Instructors, and made necessary the
esta blishmeus of an institution which
should send out competent teachers.
In the way Of such efforts he meutiored
the beginning, by the establishments of
such an institution 10 Mississippi some
six or eight years ago, followed later by
Georgia, then North Carolina, now by
South Carolina
Discussing the different ones, he
came to look at Winthrop Normal aud
Industrial college of South Carolina
In some respects he considered it
unique e''-potably, in combining an
academic education with normal ADD
industrial one and spoke Of the combi-
nation as a most desirable one.
The buildings be considered almost
perfect-''the best in the south, and
compares most favorably With the best
anywhere.
The thoroughpess of the appoint
menss and the model way in which this
'sup-to date hotel" is kept, make it an
objecs-less to mate with the educa-
tionsl advantages Pareutheticslly. he
spoke Of the wonderfully good living
in the college and said that in his l6
years experience visiting schools he had
never eaten such "good bread He
also spoke Of tbs great advantage to be
derived from the farm in connection
with the college.
DR.. Mayo seemed to be struck with
the broad ideas which had dominated in
the selection Of the faculty-in DOT al
lowing social or political prestige to TO-
fuence it-apd commended the thor
oughpess add efficiency of the teach
ers, selected from Maine to Califor-
MIA"
He also paid high tribute to the
.'orgapiziug qualities and executive
powers of President Johnson
Upon the whole DR.. Mayo seemed OF
be very highly pleased with the work
being dooe at Winthrop and hoped that
the State would always aphod the stau
dard Of excellence which marks the be-
ginning of tee work, and would give
the college the support it deserves
that ''the clock should net strike II at
the begioipo."

Is Charity Worth While ?

Ruth Ashmore contributes helpful! and
practical paper on SIS Charity Worth
While?" to May Ladies Home Journal, thus
summarizing her discourse: But: after all,
what we want to do, you and |, is TO fl our
lives with charity 80 that to whomever there
may come need we can gi7e help The hep
may express itself in material things; it may
be iu the sympathy of kindly words, or it
may be spoken only by the pressure Of the
band There is no charity in having your
name 90 the list Of generous givers while
some one near to you stays within doors be-
cause her coat is shabby, or because her CLOTH
ing is not sufficiently warm. There is no
charity in the giving of much money if you
bave besn harsh and cruel TO some one who
deserved yoar consideration, and have made
that one heart feel that there is nothing in
the world but bitterness. There j no charity
in your being willing to write checks that re-
present much money when you are quick to
speak the unkind word, or 10 show 10 those
who are around you heart eaten up by
pride, and lips that utter 10 words save those
OF scorn Ali the gold in the world Will
count as ao,hing unless your charity is like
taat which was taught TO the world nearly
two thousand years ago it meant that to
feed ,he hungry, take. care Of the sick, to for
give the sinner, aud to help, always in the
bes, way, whoever asks for help was Cbrist's
charity. Tha, IS the charity. ny friend, that
you AID want TO try to initiate. Begin by
being charitable with your lips. by being
charitable in your thoughts a1d acts And
if, Of your little store there can only be offer
eu few penre, you may De certain that they
will be reckoued oy God Himself as greater
than the macy nilious given By those who
are so unwise as TO thipk hat charity nea3s

If reports are true regarding the

vast amount of explaining to con-

THE returning delegates from the

to defeat the three nominees on
the republican ticket for repre-
sentatives. That this republican
bolt will endanger the success OF
the ticket there is no use conceal
