HEAR YE THIS CALL.

The Stonewal Jackson Training School is an
institution which thus early in its career is doing
a service of marked good, and it deserves every
possible aid which can be given it. Most truly
says Mr.. J. P. Cook, of Concord, whose heart and
soul are in the work of the institution for which
he IS II large part responsible: The Jackson
Training School for hayward and unfortunate
boys, who became mixed up with the law, has
saved to the State and society scores of bows
who are now making good in the walks of up
hight and useful citizenship. Only a few have
gone back to their wallow."
This utterance comes from Mr.. Cook on his re-
Stunning editorial charge of The Uplift," the mag
azine issued from the training school. Neces-
sarily kept from this work for awhile, his return
to it is a h~arbinger of it's growth and of an in
crease in interest with regard to the institution.
Mr.. Cook, who is chairman of the Board of
Trustees. finds a need for more means to provide
for the boys Of the Institution, and for the BOYS
who are to be in it. With the other members of
the Board he has signed an appeal for aid which
should meet with a generous response. That APP
peal reads:
We claim the Stonewall Jackson Training
School Is doing the most important philan-
thropic work in the State. 1t is making men
and useful citizens out of youths who would
be in prison or on the chain gAng. associatine
and becoming lnpreSnated with the wees OF
old and hardened criminals were il not for
this institution.
Our, present income is insufficient for our
maintenance. We are now caring for nearly
one hundred boys, which o~vertaxes our pres
ent resources. We are, therefore, unable to
comply with the numerous demands upon US
to take in more boys until We provide accom-
1nodations and the means with which to
care for them.
For that purpose, we ask you to help us
with a donation, and do please make it as
liberal as possible. Your subscription 10 this
worthy cause will be most helpful and greatly
appreciated.
Direct aid in cash donations, and help il sub
s~criptions to The UpHft" will be doing q service
where there is need OF help. Editor Cook figure:
out that with 5000 subscribers 70 The Uplft-
the subscription is $l.OO a vear-there would be
profit to the institution OF $4,000 a year and tina
