BARRING WHITE TEACHERS FOR
NEGROES.

1t appears that one of the most
strenuous fights which the general
assembly has seen in some time was
that in the house of representatives
on Tuesday and Wednesday on the
Fortner bill, which prohibits the
teaching of negroes by~white teach
ers, either in public or private
schools. The bill was finally passed
in the house by a good majority and
has gone over to the senate for ac-
tion by that body.
The bill is not necessary, so far as
Newberry county is concerned, be-
cause we have no white teachers in
negro schools, but we do not believe
in the mingling of the races in the
schools or anywhere else, where such
mingling may have even the slightest
tendency to instill into the negro
even the slightest tnge Of social
equality aspirations, and We do not
believe in white teachers for negro
schools. Of course, no decent white
man would allow his child to attend
school taught by negroes.
A law ought not to be necessary in
South Carolina to prevent white peo-
pie from being teachers Of negro
schools, but since there seem to be
a good many white teachers of negro
schools, they should be barred by
law.
We believe in treating the negro
justly and kindly, but the. negroes
can be given the kind of training
which they should be given without
the presence of white teachers in
their schools, mingling with them as
a teacher must mingle with pupils.

THE UNCONVENTIONAL COLLEGE

When one considers the large ap-
propTiations which are constantly be-
ing made to the higher institutions Of
learning supported by the various
States-South Carolina included
euop ueeq spU Qo!QM MON Guy eq4
by such institutions as Newberry COL
lege, upon the meagre funds which
they have received, is cause not
only for congratulation, but even for
wonder. And the character Of work
which such institutions as NeWberry
college have done, upon the funds
with which they had to do it, should
increase our loyalty to such institu-
tions-and particularly the loyalty of
the people of Newberry to NeWberry
college.
If the denominational colleges in
the future, however, are to compete
successfully with institutions SUP
ported by the State, the denomina-
tional colleges must be adequately
supported. "The Methodist in South
Carolina says the News and Cour-
ier, in an editorial bearing upon this
subject, "are thoroughly alive to the
necessities of the situation, and at
the last annual conference they
launcheS campaign to finance more
adequately the Methodist colleges in
the State. They realize that it is to
the denominational colleges that the
church must now look for leadership,
nor will they be disappointed if DR..
Douglas is correct when he argues
that 80 per cent of the men turned
out from such institutions not only
maintain their church membership,
but become active church workers Of
one kind or another
In a recent canvas to increase the
endowment of Newberry college,
President Harms WAS successful in
raising the amount which he set out
to- raise, and Newberry college within
recent, years has experienced a re-
markable gorwth along all lines. But
there is a great deal of work yet for
the Lutherans in the adequate equip
ment and maintenance of Newberry
college.
The UNCONVENTIONAL colleges have
done a great and glorious work for
South Carolina, and Newberry col
lege has been a leader among them.
And it may be stated that Newberry
college is one of this city's greatest
assets.
