FOR DEVELOPMENT
President Kinard Talks of Anderson
CoIlege-No Thought of COmbin-
ing With ChicOra

t e State
DR.. J. P KinarI, president of An
derson college, was in Columbia yes
terday. returning from the meeting
of tht State Teachers association i'll
Florence.
Speaking OF the institution of whica.
he is the head, DR.. Ki1ard said:
"p.e article in Il e State Of Friday
and the signed statement Of DR.. Black
burn on Saturday rlakc it perfectly
plain that Anderson college has no in
tention of combining with Chicora. Al
sufficient answer Of any such sug-
gestion is found in the fact to which
DR.. Blackburn calls attention tat An
derson college is owned and controlled
by tie Baptist denomination OF So4th
Carolina
Never in Better Condition.
CAS- a matter of fact, Anderson col
Iege was never in better conditicL
than it is today. Ihe State Baptist
convention which met in Charleston
last December gave the college all it
asked gor and since that time the
president and Il trustees have BEEN
busy making plans for further devel-
opment and Improvement.
"The convention ct Charleston
granted to the college the exclusive
privilege Of conducting three years
campaign for the purpose of raising
100000 for the institution. The col
lege has just secured the services OF
one of the best business men in the
State. He will be permanent officer
of the institution and will begin work
for the college about April /, just as
soon as he can close up his private
affairs. The citizens O: Anderson are
ready now to start Ills subscription
with from $4,000 to $4,000 and the
college will certainly get the remainder
from the rest of the State.
cooperative Government
everything at tie institution is
maving along satisfactorily, Under
the experienced leadership of the dean
of the college, Miss Helen P. Smith,
with the help of the president and tie
faculty, system of cooperative gov
ernment has been instituted. This is
generally accepted now to be the bes:
means OF preparing students to meet
the responsibilities of life after lea7-
ing the walls Of their alma mater.
Both students and faculty are well
pleased with its working at Anderson
college. The purpose of this institu-
ton has always been to provide for
small number of students The best
conditions for moral, mental and phys
ical development.
"a great deal of thought and atton-
tion is given at the college to the mat
ter OF training for L ealth. The officers
of the institution are in thorough SYM
pathy with the awakened public con-
science on this subject. They mean to
make the 80 acres of College Heights
q training place for I1ealta and right
living.
''No, Anderson college is too busy
now, and too firmly entrenched in the
affections of the great denomination
that supports it, to be thinking OF
uniting with any institution"
