Why Should Atlanta Do Bigger Things Than
Richmond?
Editor OF The Virginian:
Sir,-I want to ask: What Is the matter with
Richmond, this beautiful "Queen City of the
South? Have we no capitalists here? Are there
not people interested In the "Men and Religion
Movement? Why should Atlanta do greater
things than Richmond? The Atlanta Campaign

THE MEDICAL COLLEGE OF VIRGINIA.

THE MEDICAL COLLEGE OF VIRGINIA.
With the close of the commencement exercises
at the Academy of Music last night of the Uni
versity College of Medicine another Richmond
medical college went out of existence the first
having been the Medical College of Virginia
Tuesday night These two colleges, one OF them
old and clustered around with history and
memorable associations. and one of them new
but with achievement to its credit, ended their
Municipalities forever this week to merge and
open their doors next September as one greater
college
These two great institutions have done much
for Richmond and Virginia Both have set high
standard Of efficiency and good service and both
have sent into the world of medicine graduates
who have brought honor upon their nourishing
mothers and relief from pain and suffering to
other In doing good; united they will de even
greater things In the future.
The Medical College of Virginia and the Uni
versity College of Medicine have been successful
Each in its own field has fulfilled Its mission
But for years their fields have oyerlapped
Much work has been duplicated AS each year
went by it became more clearly to be seen that
two colleges doing the same work in the same
territory meant waste of effort and recently
the decision was reached that the two forces
joined together could do better work and at
less expense Then came negotiations and
finally consolidation.
1t Is not always impossible to look into the
future and forsee what is to come of our efforts
We may through the glass darkly, but the
outlines of the coming events may be distin-
guished. The exact degree OF efficiency to which
the new consolidated college will attain cannot
be told but 1t takes no seer to predict without
hesitation and without fear that the new and
larger Medical College of Virginia, the result
OF the merger Of the two institutions which
have gone out of existence. will perform an
even greater service to Richmond and Virginia
than the two working separately were able to
perform. The consolidation took place because
il was inevitable; 1t was inevitable because 1t
was for the best.
The Virginian wishes the new enterprise
Godspeed and all the success made by the char.
acter and enterprise and ability of those hay
ing it in charge. May 1t be consolidation of
the high aims and high purposes which dis
tinguished the individual institutions and their
conductors, as we'll as consolidation of ma
terial forces!

The Nation S Dead
Richmond, Va

Beside the army Of her dead
Once more the Nation stands.
With banners waving at her back,
And blossoms in her hands.
With equal love and grief and pride,
Impartally today
She drops her roses and her tears
Upon the Blue and Gray.
Forgotten are the years of strife,
The cause they lost or won.
Each sleeper In the silent tents 4.
Is her beloved son.
The uniforms ashes now,
The swords and guns are rust,
But memory's eternal green
Is rooted in their dust.
Nina Irving, in Lesle's Weekly.
Memorial Day.
In honor Of our fallen dead,
We celebrate this day;
In our minds and in our hearts
Their memory shall stay.
they were heroes in the strife!
No Drawer men than they
Ere trod earth's battle fields.
Or deadly weapons swayed.
We lay upon our heroes graves
The emblems of decay;
But their deeds of valor writ
Shall never pass away.
Brass and marble may decay,
Even mountains waste away;
But immortal is Lee
Who nobly wore the gray.
