GOVERNOR TAYLOR ON IN
GERSOLL.

ROBERT IL. Lay lol, puO'iSuCo III
a recent issue of the Johns ton
City Comet. is one of the most
remarkable productions from
his gifted pen:
Il sat in a great theater at
the national capital. 1t was
thronged with youth and beau
ty, old age and wisdom. l saw
a man, the image of his God,
stand upon the stage, and l
heard him speak.
His gestures were pertec-
ton of grace, his voice was
music and his language was
more beautiful than any l had
ever heard from mortal lips.
He painted picture after
picture of the pleasures and
lows and sympathies of home.
He enthroued love and preach
ed the gospel of humanity like
an angel. Then l saw him dip
his brush in the ink of moral
blaclkness and blot out the
beautiful pictures he had paint
ed saw him stab love dead
at his feet; I saw him blot out
the stars and the sun, and
leave humanity and the uni
verse in eternal darkness and
eternal death.
81 saw him, like the serpent
of old, worm himself into the
PARADISE of human hearts ano
bv his seductive eloquence and
subtle devices and sophistry IN
iect his fatal venom under
whose blight its powers faded
its music was hushed. its sun
shine was darlIened, and III
soul was left desert waste
with only the new-made graves
of faith and hope.
81 saw him, like a lawless
cratic meteor without an orbit
sweep across the intellectual
sky, brilliant only in its sell
consuming fire generated b
friction with the indestructibl
and eternal truths of God.

gel of modern infidelity, and

where the school opened and was held

towers at the main or central entrance
to the building. lis said that here Mr..

Before the close OF February the school

The modest announcement that Gov.
ernor Poy inter- had availed himself OF the
privilege OF appointing a young lady TO
receive the benefits of scholarship in the
Dread institute aroused very natural
curiosity which was to be gratitied very
speedily, as the next mail brought cir.
cular giving an account OF the institute
and its work in detail. The Dread is
picturesque building localed at Worces.
ter, Mass, where all things pertaining
to domestic science are taught. Its
founder and builder and patron saint is
Ell Thayer, who common ced the build
ing in 1913, when he Vas young man
just from Browns college and full OF en-.
thusasm and altruism. The first tower
was completed that year and opened as
school for the higher education OF
girls. 1t takes it's name from this line
in Virgil
"Hinc atque hinc glomerantur Ore.
AIDES" which translated reads, Here
and there gather the mountain nymphs."
The institution has always been known
by this name, but at the golden jubilee
asst fall it was rechristened and will
lenceforth be known as the Dread in.
