NEVER CHANGED Manic.
Newberry College Was Newberry
College When Located at WalhalIa.

To the Editor Of The State: Just
to keep the history straight allow
me few words to correct slight
error inadvertently made by Miss
May Russell in her readable article
published in Sundays State on can
tebellum Colleges of South Carroll
na." In speaking of Newberry Col
lege, or which l have the honor to be
an alumnus, having graduated there
from while the college was at Wal
halla, she says the college and all it's
belongings were moved to Walhalla
and the name changed to Adger Col
lege' The error is in the conclud-
ing part of the statement. During
It's temporary sojourn of nine years
in this Pearl of the Piedmont, the in
stitution was always known as New
berry College, and continued under
the Jurisdiction of the Lutheran
Synod of South Carolina and never
did change its name or lose its iden-
tity. After its return to its former
home at Newberry, the Presbyterians
established a college in the building
In Walhalla and named it after one
OF their great preachers and scholars

honor to both.

WOMEN TO KEEP
Up NIGHT SCHOOL
IN THE DISTRICT
Hiance of Jewish Women and
Daughters Of the American
Revolution Unite for Work.

Deeply impressed NTH the ur-
cent need for a longer night
school term in Washington than
the course of less than three
months non possible NTH the
funds prorided by Congress, the
Alliance of Jewish Women has
arranged to keep one school
oreH the rest of this year at its
"uH expense.
4 campaign to gain larger
appropriation for night schools
uds announced today by Our
Flag Chapter, d. A. r., which
horcs to enlist the forty-sir
other District chapters in the
cause.
Inadequate provision for night
school instruction is outlined to-
dGv for Times readers by Mrs.
Adolph Kahn, president of the
alliance, and by Miss Josephine
E. Prather, regent of Our Flag
Chapter.
BY ]. R. HILDEBRAND.
Washington has an absurdly in
adequate provision for night school
courses Opportunities given to for
oigners in nearly every other large
city, 10 learn the English language,
and the chance for an education
rendered working folk, are denied
these classes in the Nations Capital.
These are the premises on which
the Washington Alliance for Jewish
Women today announced plans for
keeping open one class at its own
expense, and upon which Our Flag
Chapter, ID. 4. r., voted to help
sustain such a school, and to start
an agitation for a longer night
school term.
So eager is one group of working
and foreign women for public school
education that they have raised a
fund among themselves TO engage
teachers and continue their studies
at the Mckinley Manual Training
School
With an appropriation Of only
1880, the night schools this year
wero able to keep open less than
three months. Four of the white
schools ran for fifty nights, two for
sixty nights. while the largely at
tended cooking s9hool classes, five
IN number. had to close after forty
nights
Demand For Night Schools.
Night school education has be-
come a prime necessity in educs-
ton" said Mrs Kahn. And in
Washington there is a marked de-
msnd for evening study. We owe
the foreigners who come to our land
special obligation. and the best
sort Of an Introduction to American
citizenship is through the public
schools. Likewise, we should provide
for those pupils who work all day
and are willing to attend night school
10 improve their minds.
often a day school pupil may
attend because he has TO. but these
night school pupils appreciate the
benefits of education and are will
ing to give up their recreation hours
to obtain II. From them il should
not be withheld
Mrs. Kahn pointed out that the
Alliance of Jewish Women has taken
special interest in the night school
problem here. She and her asso-
Ciates have made thorough study
Of the situation. The year before
last they supplemented the brief pub
lie school courses by 4 private school
IN rented rooms. But this year they
have obtained permission to use the
rooms at the Franklin School. and
