THE 3. B. DEGREE.

There are so many opportunities offered TO
men and women Of large means it is astonishing
how few there are who accept it, either when
they are present in the flesh, or by means OF
beuuests in their wills. We see much or TINS
man and that being honored by universities ana
colleges with degrees Of various kinds put d
higher honor is that when there has been such
doing as have the University OF the "orlo
confer the degree of D. B.-Doctor of Benevo-
lence
There are and women who have won
such degrees by philanthropies which came from
their check books, and there is a recent instance
of this IN the person Of Mr.. James Sprunt, OF
Wilmington, who generously gave thousand
dollars to repair and equip Fairgrounds at two
of the schools in Wilmington. That he was the
donor of the thousand dollars he modestly kept
out Of sight till there came such an insistent
demand of the children and their friends to
know the of the gver that he allowed his
name to be made public. That thousand dollars
is going to help, and we hereby confer the de-
gree Of D. B. on Mr.. James Sprunt, Of Will
mi1gton.
Raleigh has had instances of generosity that
gives rights to such a degree, have other
places in North Carolina. But as the material
abilities of our people increase there should be
more Of this. There has just been opened here
the John Pullen Nurses Home which bears
the of who veritable D. B.
II gave thousand dollars for the Home before
his death and left three thousand by will. Then
there the gift of five thousand dollars from
Mr.. and Mrs. c. H Belvin, which went to the
same good cause. It's splendid to have great
means, but how much more splendid to
them greatly.
May the tribe of D. B.'s increase in North
Carolina. In life may they their money
to it bring forth good fruits and when
death has called across the river may it be seen
that they have only been in hiding, and that
there are benefactions provided which will go to
the uplift of the world There can be no higher
degree conferred than that of D. B.
The farmer and mechanic., 1915-06-08
