an eternal principle, principle
which every Christian must &C
cept or deny his Christianity );
and if the University or other
stands in the path
why it must bear the effect OF
irrefutable logic without finch
ing, or yield. The principle, as
enunciated by DR.. Kilgo at the
Methodist Conference, IS this:
Shall we build our education
on atheistic science or on the
religion of Christ? Shall our
Young ni,n .-a:A philosophy
from the standpoint OF pagan
stoics or in the light Of the Naz-
arine ," That is all. Whatever
else has been said simply grows
out of the Christian premise that
no one has been able to dispute.
Two editors have faced the ar
gument for a few days one re-
tired because, as he claimed, he
was too old for fighting the
other, having been beaten III ar
gument and tangled in history,
said it was none of his fight and
withdrew. Instead of meeting
the argument fairy, most Of its
opponents have lodged the ques-
ton, hiding behind the indefen-
sible accusation that Christian
education is the demagogue's at
tack against state SCHOOL,. Pu>
rify them and make them what
they should be, then they Will

man he must be heard and not

prised to find the following news
note in a paper that takes great
Joy in disappearing Dr. Kilgo
and his views OH education
DR.. J. c. Kilgo, president of
Trinity College, delivered his
address on "Christian Education
to a large and attentive audience
in the Church Street Methodist
Church last evening. III justice
to DR.. Kilgo it should be said
that his address is not the VIC
lent demagogue's attack upon
the University it has been rep
resented to be. However, the
doctor, knowing the sentiments
Of his hearers, may have changed
his talk bit"
That DR.. Kilgo did not
"change his talk" one iota we
feel sure. 1t was the same clear
cut, straightforward address that
he delivered at our Park Fair ;
i'll substance it was the same
that all North Carolina has
heard-for DR.. Kilgo has made
several speeches during the last
few years. He has been called
bigot, deinagogue, and fraud ;
vet he continues to express his
opinion fearlessly, and wherever
he is heard he is believed and
understood. In a speech last
week he said: Il may have made
mistakes, but no one can accuse
me of being disloyal to my God. -

a boast is not demagogue

Our Trip to Manteo.

After a delightful trip on the
steamer Neuse and short drive
across the Island, we arrived at
Manteo, the little village of his
toric surroundings and big men.
We reached the Tranquil
House at about II p. m, where
we were met by "mine hosts
Evans and lis good wife, and
were at once made to feel at
home. They were the acme OF
hospitality, and we were not sur
prised to learn that they had
guests from the far north, who
have come to our sunny south
land" to spend the winter.
The next day being the COM
mencenent of court, the little
town was alive with people and
we proceeded to hustle.
On Thursday it was Our good
fortune to visit historic Fort
Raleigh. about three miles
from Manteo. This fort was
built over three hundred years
ago, but the outlines of the dirt
foundation are to be plainly seen.
1t was built in the shape of a
star, and at each star point the

in the center OF the fort beau
tiful monument of granite

front beautifully polished and
the following lines inscribed
upon it:

Progress. itselfis all hight
but there are
MANY and seriousobjections to the
wav it is being done. III the first
place, it seems to be a private
enterprise, i'll which the clement
of profit is the only motive.
Every door OF many houses has
been numbered, and, such IS the
geeed for gain, a hfteen'cent
number has actually been tackled
over the doors Of several OF our
churches, to say nothing OF outs
houses. Instead of taking some
central street and mum ber1ng
from it, the numbers begin at
the city limits and come in.
OF course when the city grows,
or political changes effect Our
boundaries, the numbering must
all be done over. Again, there
is not enough space allowed for
each number from the north
end of Road Street to Main,
there are only $50 numbers on
both sides, including vacant lots.
The City Council is negligent
in not supervising this matter.
Fortunately no one is forced to
accept or pay for the numbers.
