that exceeded it was Vanderbilt

confidence and patronage, not

that our Methodist people who

HISTORY FROM SOCIOLOGICAL VIEW.
Proposes to Write a Number of
" Volumes on Different Races.
tFrom The Trinity Chronicle. J

NEAoA" As AAhhhSF ~AaSASt~sg
The college community take.
great delight in tie publication Of
a book on the Negro races. by
Professor Jerome Dowd, formerly
professor of economics in this in
stitution, but now of the Univer
sity of Oklahoma. The publish
ers of the volume are the Mac.
milan Company, of New York,
who have made, as is their Gus.
tom. a book of an attractive me-
chanical form. 1t is the FIST of a
series of volumes which will deal
with sociological aspects of the va
rious races of men. is author
proposes to write two more vol
umes on the Negro races in At
RIGA and America, to devote one
volume each to TIL American Ill
dams. the Mougclians, the Japan
csc, the Chinese, the Semites and
the Aryans, These volumes will
treat of the history of these races
from a sociological standpoint.
In his preface he states that his
first object is ito establish the
fact that each race has its distinc.
tive institutions and special evo-
lutions corresponding to the 10
cality in which it lives or has
lived" His second object is ito
discover the factors and laws
which explain the mental and
moral characteristics and peculiar
racial Instincts, to the end that
the principles and laws discovered
q, may be applied to whatever is
normal or retrogressive."
Professor Dowd writes his first
volume on the Negro race, be-
cause they represent the most
primitive life, and because he be-
lieves that there can De no intel
ligent consideration of the Negro
in. the United States without hav-
ing the knowledge Of the socio:
logical conditions Of kindred pop.
ulations in Africa. "fhe first
volume" says he, seeks to por.
tray and interpret the life of the
Negritoes. Nigritians and Fella
thos from the earliest times TO the
present, to show the conditions
which existed, or still exists, as
an outcome of native surround.
ing, and to note the changes
which have taken place 10 conse.
quence Of outside influences"
Even a casual glance at Profes
sor Dowd's volume impresses one
with the prodigious amount oil
material which he has dealt with
in coming to h $ conclusions. The
writings Of such travellers as
Stanley, Livingstone and Du
Chaillu, the most scholarly treat.
ises Of .Frenc.i and German
writers, and articles found in tech
nical journals have served as the
basis 70: his study. Even a lay
man who knows but little Of the
subject matter is impressed with
the scientific treatment Of the sub
jeet. The style is clear and in.
teresting. Among all the books
recently published BY Moth Caro-
l;nians this volume stands out as
a striking testimony to what zeal
and industry may accomplish in
the production Of works Of scien.
tihC value.
Trinity College feels specially
interested in the volume because
Professor Dowd was formerly a
student at Trinity, aud vas for a
number Of years professor OF econ
omies here. In the preface he
makes grateful acknowledgment

1 rIous Inc Affinity InrOnicie
-Thereport of the Board Of Edu.
cation OF the North Carolina Con.
ference adopted at the annual SEES
sion in Newbern is an important
paper. 1t discusses fully the edu-
cational policy of the church at
large, and of this particular Con-
ference. Below are given some
extracts from this report:
AT no time i'll the history of
our nation, or of our church has
it been necessary to emphasize
more strongly the necessity for
Christian education than at the
present time. We are passing
through period of rapid transit
ton. Men are. thinking today
with perhaps larger freedom than
in any previous age. Ideals of
the past are being rapidly modi-
fed to adapt onr life to the
changing environments of the
present. Larger numbers of our
people are doing their own think
ing, and are following the path
way blazed out by their own in
vestigations, than in any other
period of our church's history;
and this is not a fact to be de-
plored. Still it is a fact that en-
phasizes the necessity for enthron-
ing Christ in our educational life;
because the type of our education
will largely influence the character
of the life toward which these
transitional movements are tend
ing.
GENERAL BOARD OF EDUCATION.
"Our church stands in the fore
front in this work of Christian
education. The General Board Of
Education surveys the whole field,
and undertakes wisely to direct

The success that has already
crowned its efforts is a sufficient

policy which created it, and in
line with its work your board re.
commends that the Conference

Whereas, our church through
its organized agencies in making
a determined effort to organize a
correct system Of education, and
promote sound standards of edu.

TRINITY PARK SCHOOL.

This school is located on the
campus of Trinity College, and
affords unusual advantages for
preparing boys to enter upon COL
lege work. The students of this
institution have access to the H.
brary and gymnasium Of Trinity
College, as well as many other
advantages derived from its loca-
ton adjacent to the I ollege. Ex-
perience shows that something
like 90 per cent. of its graduates
take up college work. This fact
in itself speaks volumes in the
ability of this institution to FIRE
the youthful life with high aspi-
rations. We most heartily COM
mend it to the patronage Of our
people"

Sweet Girl Graduate.

Next to the June bride, the fairest flower of spring is the sweet girl graduate. She buds and blooms in every section of the country and sheds the perfume of violet water and sachet powder over all the land. While the tow-maned college youths are crowding all the big words in the dictionary into ponderous theses, settling all the problems of man. kind and taking to the woods to roar out their orations, the girl is very sensibly spending her time a: the dressmakers and settling the really important problem of What shall wear?" She realizes perfectly we'll that nobody cares whether her essay is on The Pleasures of Home" or 'The Rights of American Woman hood" She knows they will pay very little attention to her essay, but if she is a dream of ribbons and ehif. fon they will pay considerable at tention to her. The essay is as in significant a part of the ceremony as the bridegroom at fashionable wedding. The girl herself's the thing
 What is the fnest' product of America? Secretary Loeb insists it is rabbits; Carnegie stands for li- braries; Mrs Hetty Green considers it ready money, while Secretary of Agriculture Wilson crows over the American hen. They are all wrong. It's the girl graduate. As Daniel Webster remarked of Massachusetts, Gentlemen, she needs no apology; there she stands!"
 For years father has poured out his money in buying her frocks and laces and hats, in paying for her chemistry and music and chewing gum. Mother has spent years of her life in teaching her morality, truth, the catechism and the proper way to do up her hair. And they feel that she's worth all the trouble and care and money she has cost.

KEEPING STEP WITH GRANDPA
By Earl Marble.

by EdFl MaTDle. It was a splendid morning,
 With sunshine warm and bright, With lazy cloudlets sailing,
 In their aerial flight. How clearly remember
 That blessed morn in May, When I kept step with grandpa On dear Memorial day. He told me many stories
 About the olden days, Of deeds of daring valor
 Amid the battles blaze. AS toward the village churchyard We found our solemn way, When I kept step with grandpa On dear Memorial day. I carried blooming branches
 From mothers lilac tree, And every one had flowers
 AS far as eye could see. And bands made lovely music
 As we pursued our way, When I kept step with grandpa On dear Memorial day. I thought of that this morning When down the village street The yearly sad procession
 Went on with reverent feet; 1 thought, as they without him Pursued their solemn way, Of keeping step with grandpa On dear Memorial day.

The Good Old Summer Time

has arrived and it's the most natural habit on earth for us Christians to drink considerable more ln hot weather than when the climate IS cool Therefore, we should be very careful as to what beverage we par take. Goodness knows that intoX- icating drinks are just what all good Christians should not use, parucu- larly in the good old summer time. And "soda" with the different flavors is almost as bad. Now, if you take our advice you Il drink fresh churned buttermilk, and kindly remember We receive it fresh every day. We refer you to any of the hundreds Of peo- pie who drink the kind we sell as to the quality we dispense. Doctors order it lately when they wish to cure you quickly, and any doctor who says it's not healthy, look out for him, he's liable to be bad egg." But remember when eating your three squares" each day that tea and coffee is a very important part, and you should see to it that you have the very best that your money can buy, and there's no surer place to get the good quality than
