CHRISTIAN EDUCATION
Rev. Or. W. E. Hatcher Nightly Stirs
the PeopIe of His Native County.
Especial to The Times.Dispatch.l

tspecial to The Times. Dispatch.l
LONE PINE, VA. August lO-Dr. W.
L. Hatcher, a native OF Bedford, has been
conducting red hot campaign In favor
of higher education in this county for
several days. On the last day of the
Strawberry Association, In concert with
DR.. S. c. Mitchell, of Richmond College;
DR.. Plckard, OF Lynchburg, and other min
listers. he held a great educational mass
meeting The crowd was something eS-
traordinary, alike in its numbers ana
serious enthusiasm. The addresses We're
stirring. and the vast audience seemed
to be thrilled to the very center. Inc
educational movement of the Bnptists IN
the State, and especially the claims OF
Richmond College, We're powerfully pre-.
scented. The Doctor had spent several
days in different portions OF the county
and has met many people, and the purden
OF his talk has been Christian education.
A lady herself an ardent friend OF edu-
cation, hearing that she would receive a
call from tho Doctor on certain eve
ming. surprised him by filing her pnrlors
with her neighbours who had sons and
daughters to educate, For an hour there
was an educational mass meeting IN
private home, and this veteran champion
of education spoke to them with about
as much zeal as II there had been an
| acre of them.
| But the browning event Of the Doctors
| visit occurred on yesterday, when he ap-
neared at his old mother church, Mount
| Hcrmon. Notice having gone out that
| he would preach In the forenoon and de-
| liver an address In the afternoon on MY
| childhood Recollections OF Mount Her
| mon" drew together an immense consre-
| cation and there was deep regret that
! tho capacity OF the building made 1t I'M
| possible for many OF the people to get
| even standing room. They came from
| almost every portion OF the county, and
quite a number from lNnchburg and
| other places. After his sermon In the
morning Or. Hatcher made an address or
education, and when he went out into
the grove for dinner quite large pro,
portion OF the young people hooked aroune
| the carriage In which he had taken ms
seat, and ne did far more talking thar
| eating, pleading with all his might witt
the mountain boys and girls that they
| would seek thorough educational equip
mont for their lives, This spontaneous
assemblage in the yard attracted srea
attention, and tho impression must b'
valuable,
In his rccollections the speaker gave {
brief history OF the church, OF the minis
tiers and officers and many of the famllie
that were identified with the church MI!
years ago. There were not over on
dozen parsons present who had heen eye
witnesses OF the scenes which the min
} lister described.
