afford to look back, and our
prediction is that they will raise
the money, and Lindsey Wilson
will go forward until it will be
the best and most attractive
school for hundred miles
around.
The Commencement exercises
were of a high order. We did
not arrive in time to hear the
commencement sermon of Rev.
T. L. Hulse, but the air was
redolent with its praises even
when he reached the grounds.
The literary address of Rev. Mr..
Morgan was gem of it's kind.
Full of fine thoughts, free from
all affectation, couched in strong
and pure English-it was simply
preaching of the best type, with
the text left off. The graduating
exercises drew a large crowd, and
were in good taste, winning the
praise of all. There were seven
young gentlemen and young
ladies who had completed the
course and were awarded GER
tificates. Their declarations and
essays were we'll delivered, and
showed good thought in COM
position and sensible training in
the manner of delivery. All was
natural, nothing affected.
Messrs. Nelson and Moss, the
co-principals, have the entire
confidence of the Board and of
the citizens Of Columbia. They
are rapidly giving the school
character as being a real school,
where real training is impaired,
and men and women are turned
out ready for the University at
Nashville, or if they can go no
further with their education they
are prepared for the duties of
life. They are showing the public
that the Lindsey Wilson is not a
school on the mush room order,
run on a get-rich-quick plan, but
that it is a real training school
that prepares for life. The kind
of work they do is winning favor
with the people. Students are
coming from far and near, and
more and more they are taking
the regular Training Sc hool
course. The teachers of that
whole country have found out
that the place to get prepared to
teach is at Lindsey Wilson. In an
examination room in a near by
county, where teachers were be-
ing examined for public school
work, out of the fifty present
for the examination, forty-one of
them were former students of
Lindsey Wilson.
The Board of Education doffs
it's hat, and with thanks to God,
waves good wishes for success to
Lindsey Wilson, to Nelson and
Moss, and to Columbia.

be satisfactorily solved. 1t stands
for the interests of Kentucky and
for clean Life Insurance. The
growth and progress of the Com
pany should therefore be mat
ter of interest and pride to every
Kentuckian.
Subsequent events have proved
that no mistake was made in the
launching of this Company. The
people have shown their appre-
citation of it's purposes and have
rewarded it accordingly. Hence
forth the only remaining ques-
ton is the measure of service it
shall render to the State. 1t has
made good in the past; in the
future it purposes to square the
deed with the word.

Lindsey Wilson Training School al
Columbia.

Lyon the Chairman of the Board
of Managers for the Lindsey
Wilson Training School at Co.
lumbia, it was my pleasure to
attend in part the closing exer-
cises of the said school, May IT.
10.
On the way we had the good
fortune TO fall in with Rev. Mr..
Morgan of the Tennessee Confer
ence, and pastor of our church at
Murfreesboro, Tenn. We made
the trip from Campbellsville to
Columbia in a comfortable surrey,
Morgan and occupying the rear
seat, admiring the beautiful
scenery, and enjoying the admir-
able qualities as a driver dis
played by Lyon. A rain had
fellen, laying the dust; clouds
interviewed between us and the
sun; the pike was in fairly good
condition; the scenery unending
in it's beauty, so that with the
delightful conversation which en-
sued, we counted it one of the
most enjoyable rides of life. The
return trip was made under
similar conditions, except that
we had another companion in
the person of Rev. A. R. Kasey,
whose genial presence lent an
added charm to the whole.
We were greatly pleased with
the progress of the Lindsey
Wilson Training School. 1t is
really marvellous what a trans
formation has been wrought in
the five years since we began to
build on that hill. Not only are
the school buildings excellent
and in good repair, but that
entire section of the town has
been dotted over with elegant
residences, both occupying the
space and quadrupling the value
of real estate, and causing the
school property to sit as a very
queen IN the little city, and show
ing to the people of Columbia
that the best thing they ever
did for their town was to place
in the hands of the Board of
Education the $4,000 with which
the ENTERPRISE was begun.
So many students are crowd
ing the halls of the Lindsey
Wilson, that the problem now is
to find room, especially dormitory
room. Faculty and citizens be-
seiged us on the subject of
another dormitory. They said
they needed one built of brick, |
and to cost at least $4,000. Rev.
A. P. Lyon made them a talk,
and told them the Board of
Education would stand by the

away, for during many years the
use of the money is lost to the
State. Will any one be heard to
contend that this is necessary or
desirable?
In years past there was rea-
son for this condition to prevail,
because there were no home
companies in which the people
could carry their Insurance. But
this reason no longer prevails.
for the Commonwealth, composed
entirely of home people, now of
fers it's contracts and submits it's
claims to the patronage of the
people. 1t stands on it's merits
and offers a remedy for a condi-
ton of affairs which has too long
prevailed.
But no Company could hope to
achieve such signal success as
that mentioned merely on the
ground of local necessities. Other
conditions being equal we natur-
ally favor our neighbors and
friends. But unless conditions
are equal no such favors can be
expected. Competition must be
met and eventually merit wins.
And it is because Of the extra
ordinary merit Of the contracts
of this Company that success has
followed. AS far as good bust
ness policy permits the element
of uncertainty has been re-
A higher rate is charged
for insurance premiums than is
ordinarily necessary. This Com
pany has from the beginning
guaranteed its contracts to return
liberal dividends or rebates on
these premiums. Other Compa-
MES merely promise you the div
idends and most of them pay far
smaller dividends than the Com
monwealth actually guarantees.
This is a winning feature. Then
the contracts themselves are free
from technical and obscure claus
es requiring the judgment of an
expert to interpret. In all es-
they contain the most
modern and up-to-date ideas that
have been worked out by the
most reliable insurance experts.
No public question has been
more generally discussed in re-
cent years than the great ques-
ton of Life Insurance. A few
years ago the public conscience
was shocked because of the
seeming disregard Of high Of
iicials for their obligations, as
revealed by the Armstrong Com
mittee. 1t dawned upon the pub
lie that Life Insurance had as
sumed such enormous proportions
hat anything that threatens it's
efficiency is a blow at the very
foundations of society. 1t was
her realized that it remedies a
great imperfection in our social
system, bringing the force of
cooperative effort to the aid of
every man who takes advantage
If it.
For these and many other
reasons it is most desirable that
his business should be conducted
IN high plane and with a con-
,cientious regard for the public
good. It's necessity is more and
more appreciated. It is no fad
even though it has practically
grown up in a generation. 1t

Company.

anniversary.
This is a time for stock taking,
both on the part of the officers
and representatives of the Com
pany, and on the part of it's
large clientele of policy holders
and those who in future may be
in need of such protection as the
Company affords.
Entering upon its work at a
time whe the atmosphere was
clouded with the revelations of
the Armstrong Committee, it set
itself to the task of establishing
in Kentucky a Life Insurance
Company on a basis that would
merit and secure the fullest con-
ldence of all the people.
The increase each year in the
business of the Company demon
strates it's steady growth in pub
lie confidence. At the end this,
the third year, more than nine
million dollars 100000 #
insurance is carried by the Com
pany and all of it has been writ
ten in the State of Kentucky
alone. This is a record which
far surpasses that Of most of the
leading Companies in the country.
During the year 1907 the net
gain in the Company's Insurance
amounted to upwards of one
million dollars ISL, 900, 600, 00)
more than that of any outside
Company doing business in the
State. 1t may be added also that
the first five months of 1908 show
a substantial gain in business
over the corresponding months
of 1907.
When it is considered that this
business has been secured with
out the high pressure methods of
many Companies, it must be con-
coded that this is a most SUBJ
stantial and creditable record.
Some of the competing Com
panies have been doing business
in Kentucky for upwards of thir-
ty years. The record of this
home Company is significant for
two reasons, viz:
LIST, Because it indicates an awak-
ening on the part of the people
of the State to the advantage of
building up their own financial
institutions.
Second, Because it shows that
there must be extraordinary
merit in the contracts of the
Company that has so far sue
ceeded in outstripping it's COM
petitors.
Every citizen of the State
should be interested in any plan
that makes for the present and
future good of that State. Only
by intelligent cooperation in all
matters pertaining to the general
welfare can the best interest of
any society be conserved. If
there is anything that works
against the general good of a
community or State the people
who suffer from it ought to work
together to eliminate it. It has
long been recognized as a misfor-
tune, at least, that Kentucky
should be paying large tribute
to other States in the matter of
Life Insurance. Nearly eight
million dollars go out of the State
annually in premiums to Com
panies located in TIE North,
East and West. 1t is safe to
COW that tho amount now held in

Did you ever notice that talk
doesn't hurt a man much? Per-
lection isn't looked in man, and
when some one tries to injure a
man by ranting about a few faults
he has, the absent one, who is
probably attending to his own
affairs, is elevated in the hearers
estimation, while the informant
is lowered accordingly. If a man
knocks along, doing fairly well
people realize that while he has
some faults, he has more virtues,
and they are charitable enough
to overlook these faults.

Christmas at Mud Creek.

The 'tJoy cup" was filled to
overf1owing, when handed out to
the Sunday School on Christmas
eve at 2::3O p. M, in the form of
a Christmas Tree.
Long before the hour appointed
arrived, crowds of anxious lads
and lasses could be seen making
their way toward the church;
and so the hour drew near; to
the crowd of expectant young
sters was added many of the
older scholars who had more
patience to wait, including heads
of families and visitors. It has
been said that anticipated
pleasures are more enjoyable
than present ones" And to
look at this mass of people be-
fore the door was opened and
read in their faces the joy of
expectation, one would be likely
to admit it was a true saying;
but on going in and seeing them
enjoy the anticipated you would
have to say the best came last.
The music was we'll selected,
and very appropriate to the
occasion, and was sung in such
strains as must to have sounded
extra to the person who has no
ear for music much less to the
appreciative listener. In absence
of the pastor (Rev. C. D.. Cole)
