Social Wealth and Its Right Use.

In our opinion, it should be Mr.
Rockefellers purpose to distribute far
greater sums than he has yet given
for purposes of general use. Whether
or not the business methods of his
companies have been unfair, it is the
wealth produced by the efforts of his
fellow citizens all over the country
that has, through peculiar combina-
ton of economic conditions, somehow
been poured into his private Golfers.
Under different or wiser conditions,
no man could possibly have acquired
such wealth as that which Mr.. Rock
efeller now possesses. The best thing
that men so situated can do is ac-
lively to promote the tendency
natural and healthful tendency in a
country of equality such as our coun-
try isto anOrmal diffusion of prospect
ty. Let everybody, therefore welcome
gifts such as this one to the General
Education Board. and hope that what
Mr.. Carnegie and Mr.. Rockefeller are
doing to distribute their possessions
may go forward i'm the hands of both
of them at an accelerated pace, and
that many other men of wealth may
set themselves seriously to like tasks
Let them try to distribute q good part
of their possessions, while also help
ing to bring about conditions in the
world of business and in the realm of
law under which it will no longer be
feasible for so much of the wealth
created by the united efforts of the
whole industrial community to be di-
Verted to the private Golfers of a few.

From time to time the college room
has been increased to meet the de-
mands of the increasing patronage
and yet more room is needed and will
be provided.
Operating under the same charter
and under the same man
agement, Prof. King has q
college in Charlotte which is
doing a large and fiourishing bust
ness.
The people of Raleigh and the State
feel a deep interest in Kings Business
College, and are gratitied at it's great
success. In this connection the fol-
lowing letter from Raleigh's mayor
Hon. James /. Johnson, reflects this
sentiment and is another evidence of
the high esteem in which this college
is held:
ct always gives me pleasure to
recommend an institution that aids in
the up-building and progress of our
city.
Kings Business College, which has
been established for a number of
years, has been remarkably successful
from the beginning, and is now the
leading business college of North Car
DINA, and enjoys the good will and
confidence of the business men, not
only of Raleigh, but throughout the
State.
Kings Business College is doing
a great work for the young people OF
North Carolina and surrounding
States, and we recommend the insti-
tuition in the highest terms to those
wishing to secure a business educa-
ton
Mr.. Joseph c.. Brown, president of
the Citizens National Bank, who en-
joys a national reputation, and whose
opinion is highly valued and carries
great weight, has the following to say
about the college:

is doing in this city. The young lady
who came from your college to this

newspapers which deal with the doingS

those men of wealth who act with
brutal disregard of the rights of
others seem superficially to have no
fundamental relation yet in reality
they spring from shortcomings which
are fundamentally the same, and one
of these shortcomings is the failure
to have proper ideals.
This failure must be remedied in
large part by the actions of you and
your fellow teachers your followed
ucators, through out this land. BY
your lives, no less than by your teach
ings, you show that while you regard
wealth as a good thing, you regard
other things as still better. 1t is abb

the leading formers in the district will
do much toward strengthening the
confidence of the teacher in this work
Every effort is being made this year
by the State superintendent of Public
Instruction and by the county super
intendents to place agriculture in the
schools in full force. 1t has been
special topic in many of the summer
schools and summer institutes, and it
is hoped that every school in the State
will teach agriculture this year IS
regularly as they do English or arith-
metic. The sympathy and encourage
ment of the rural people will aid much
in the efficient Introduction of this
subject.
Every county parent who is sending
children to rural schools should look
particularly to the work in agriculture
See that the teacher organizes the
class, and that lessons are regularly
held. Visit the school and
look closely to the kind Of
instruction that is being given
in agriculture, giving suggestions to
the teacher as to it's Improvement.
Take your agricultural questions to
the teacher and request her, if she
does not know replies to your queries
to attempt to secure the desired in
formation from the Experiment Sta
ton or the State Department of Ag-
riculture
Agriculture is highly teachable and
the facts which it teaches can not but
contribute to the welfare of the COM
munity A hearty cooperation or
parents and teachers will lead to its

THE PRESIDENTS REBUKE TO
THE TOADIES.
President Roosevelt to National Edu-
catiOnaI Association.

The chief harm done by the men of
swollen fortune to the community is
not the harm that the demagogue is
apt to depict as springing from their
atoms, but the fact that their success
sets up a false standard and SO serves
as a bad example for the rise of US.
If we did not ourselves attach an eX-
aggerated Importance to the rich man
who is distinguished only by his riches,
this rich man would have a most in
significant influence over us. 1t is
generaIy our own fault if he damages
US, for he damages US chiefly by arous-
ing our envy or by rendering us sour
and disseminated. In his actual bu-
Siness relations he is much more apt
to benefit than harm therest of us,
and though it is emnently right to
take whatever steps are necessary IN
order to prevent the exceptional MEM
bers of his class from doing harm, it
is wicked folly to let ourselves be
drawn into any attack upon the man
of wealth merely as such. Moreover
such an attack is in itself an eXcep-
tionally crooked and ugly tribute to
wealth, and therefore the proof OF an
exceptionally ugly and crooked state
of mind in the man making the at
tack Venomous envy of wealth is
simply another form of the spirit
which in one of it's manifestations
takes the shape of cringing servility
toward wealth and in another the
shape of brutal arrogance on the part
of certain men of wealth. Each one
of these states of mind, whether it be
hatred, SerVility or arrogance, it is
reality closely akin to the other two,
for each of them springs from fan
tastically twisted and exaggerated
idea of the importance of wealth as
compared to other things. The clam

college is a necessity. Tt is the best
and quickest way for the young to get
a business education. A good business
college is one of the most valuable
agencies in any State, and the business
men are giving strong encouragement
to these institutions.
In Raleigh is located one of these
institutions, Kings Business College.
1t was established here years ago by
Prof j. III. King, who soon demon
strated that he possessed all the quail
ifications necessary for the successful
conduct of a first-class business col
lege. There had been several at
tempts to establish business colleges
here before he came. but they were
small affairs and met with very in

which your business matters have
been handled, which readily accounts

And there are other just as strong
endorsements by other prominent
business men of the State. These two,
however, are enough to back up the
statement that Kings Business Col
lege is the best and leading business
college in the State.
