Mr. COLES WORDS OF WISDOM.

We publish elsewhere a letter from Rev.
John " Cole, presiding elder of the Rock
ingham district, on the future of the
chief institution of the Methodist church
in North Carolina for the education of
women. There is no man in the State
better fitted to give wise counsel upon this
matter. He has held the leading pastor
ates of his church. he is a man of excel
lent judgment and business sense, and his
devotion to the church and its institutions
is known of all men.
We have no doubt that the best in
terests of the college would be advanced
by its location in the capital of the State
The reasons for this faith have been
printed in these columns, and we are glad
to know that they appeal likewise tc
prominent leaders of the Methodist
church The college has done a grea,
work 1t will rise from its ashes to do a
greater work. Never before were the
people so deeply interested in the educa
ton OF their daughters. After long years
of indifference, they have come to realize
that the education of the daughters is o.
really more Importance and more IA
reaching than the education of their sons
