.ERsKINE PRESIDENT
TO BE NAMED LATER

The Board of Trustees of Erskine
Collge met at Chester Monday even
ing, June 9th, to consider the re-
port Of the Executive Committee of
the Board on the names of men sug-
gested for president of the college.
Eighteen members of the board were
present. The committee made its
report to the effect that four names
had been suggested to it for presi-
dent, stating that such data as the
committe had been able to collect
had been collected, and was a. the
disposal Of the board.
After consideration, it was decid-
ed to defer the election of a presi-
dent of the college until August 3rd,
when there is to be a meeting at
Gastonia, n. c., when further ac-
zion will be taken. This decision was
reached for several reasons, chief
among them the fact that seven
members of the board residing in the
West reported their inability to at
tend the meeting in Chester. Several
members desired further time for
consideration.
A resolution was unanimously
passed expressing the regret Of the
hoard that DR.. Moffatt has declined
the work outlined for him at the
last meeting of the board, empha-
sizing the great need of man to do
this work, expressing confidence in
the ability of DR.. Moffatt to prose-
cute the work in a more satisfactory
manner than any other man in the
Synod, and strongly urging him. to
reconsider the matter. A committee
was appointed to visit him and urge
upon him the Importance to the col
.lege and to the church of his accept
ing the work.
What DR.. Moffatt's decision in the
matter will be has not been made
known by him and cannot be forecast
but his friends in and out Of the
church, and especially those vitality
interested in the college, will hope
that he may find himself in position
to join forces with the board in max
ing the college take on new life and
"a career Of greater usefulness.

THE SUPREME COURT
IN GREENVILLE
Greenville Piedmont.

EreenVllle fleQmOnC.
Greenville is rendered extraordi-
nary honor by the Supreme Court of
South Carolina in holding a three
day session in this city. If the highest
tribunal in the Palmetto State has
ever before removed itself from the
capital, The Pidmont can find no rec
ord of it. Of course, in the earlier
days of our history the appellate
court sat in Charleston, but that was
before Columbia had been made the
capital and when that place was only
a large plantation.
Greenville most cordially welcomes
the learned justices Of the Supreme.
Court and hopes that their too brief
sojourn here will be altogether pleas
ant. It is an eminently proper prac-
tice of the doctrine Of self-defensc
for them to assemble in the Noun
tain City at this season, instead of in
torrid Columbia. Greenville has been
the home of several illustrious men,
bers Of the South Carolina judiciary
the able Chancellor Waddy Th8Mp-
son, the two distinguished Earles,
both cut down by death in the me-
r!dian of what promised to be long
public career, the genial and gifted
James S. Cothran and his uncom-
monty talented son, the present jun
:or associate justice of the Supreme
Court. Here was the summer home of
Chief Justice John Belton O'Neall.
Greenville, too, has always had a
strong bar--as recently as 1914 the
late lamented Associate Justice Geo.
W;Gage ina letter to young law
yer in this city gave itas his opinion
that Greenville then had the ablest
bar in the State.
Greenville is not unacquainted
with the members of the present
court. Greenville takes judicial no.
tice. of the great industry and learn
ing of Chief Justice Eugene B. Gary,
for twenty-eight years . member of
the court, of the ability and vigor-
I'ous mentality of Associate Justice
Thomas B. Fraser, son of one Of the
splendid South Carolina judges of
the old school, of the, penetrating
knowledge Of human nature apd the
law and rugged common sense of As
soeiate Justice Richard C. Watts,
from our neighboring county. of Lau-
rms. Greenville is proud of her emf
nent son on the court, but because
of relationship is disqualified from
pronouncing judgment on his merits
here.
Is Greenville to become the capi-
tai of South Carolina? 1t begins to
look so. The Supreme Court is al
ready here. The governor will soon
move here. The legislature may soon
follow the executive and judicial de-
partments. Why not?
Greenville hopes that in coming
here the Supreme Court has set for
itself a precedent to be followed
every year, for this city is sensible of
the honor done it by the presence of
this august body. May it please your

honors, you will always be welcome
here for Greenville holds in high es-
TEEN and respect the four men to
whose hands is so often committed
the property and liberty of the citi-
zen and the welfare of the State and
of each of whom it may be said,
when life's judgment roll is made up,
as it was said of great South Caro-
lima judge Of the past: "He wore
without reproach or stain the ermine
of his native State; just judge, who
feared God and loved his fellow
man."

1t has been suggested by Col. S. J
Link, Of the Press and Banner block,
that if the farmers will buy their
molasses from W. D. Barksdale and
Allie Smith, they will not need to mix
any other ingredient with the pur--
chases in order to wipe out the boil
weev!l.

A CORRECTION

In our notice Of the hospitals
birthday" celebration which will
take place on the 9th of July, our
readers were led to infer that the
celebration would be an all day af-
fair. This is mistake as the parade
will be held at 6 o'clock in the af-
ternoon and supper and not dinner
as before stated, will be sold on the
square.
Mrs. W. F. Nickles is chairman of
the celebration and is making plans
for pleasant afternoons and
evenings entertainment.

consider matters from personal
standpoint. DR.. Moffatt is not that
kind of a man. We hope and believe
that he will see the work Of vital nee
esssity to the college which he is
called on to do, and that on maturer
consideration, he will lead in that
work.

DR.. MOFFATT.

SSSS~S~~N
Moffatt should engage in this and
the other kind of work. Many places
await the coming of a good man. Dir.
Moffatt is by all odds the most attrac-
tive preacher in the Associate Re-
formed Presbyterian Church. He is
a most attractive man. He can be
useful in many places. He has friends
ev, .ywhere and among adj the
churches. These will follow him
wherever he works.
But DR.. Moffatt's greatest useful
ness lies with the greater affairs Of
Erskine College. He has given the
best years of his life to the college.
He has many more years of useful
ness which can be best bestowed on
the institution which furnishes the
very life-blood of the church. Realiz-
ing this the Board of Trustees of the
college has asked htat he reconsider
his decision in the matter of taking
up the work which he was asked to
do at the late commencement.
The title of the new office assign
ed him and to which he was elected
as popularity considered, may be
misleading. In some quarters it is,
we think. Perhaps the name selected
for his office was unfortunate. But
that the Board of Trustees regard
DR.. Moffatt as a power of strength
in the affairs of the college no one
with full information will deny. The
work which he has done for the COL
lege is not yet known. Only few
days ago a good woman in the
church went to her reward. Of her
estate the sum of one thousand dol
lars is to 60 to the college. In the
next ten or fifteen years case after
case will be heard from where the
college has been remembered
through the interest and efforts of
the former president.
In seeking to divide the duties of
the former Office of president of the
college between a man who was to
remain at the college and do work
as an instructor and : disciplinarian
and DR.. Moffatt, who was elected to
look after the interests of the col
lege in a field where he can be most
useful, it is most unfortunate that
an idea became prevalent that the
trustees of the college sought to
shelve DR.. Moffatt.
If there has been any doubt as 10
the sincerity of the board in OPEN
ing a greater field of usefulness for
the most loved minister in the
church it should be dispelled by the
action of the board at Chester last
Monday when resolutions were pass
ed urging him to reconsider the
work which he is said to do. and
when a delegation Of the board was
asked to wait on him personally and
urge him to become the real direc:
tor Of the destiny Of. Erskine : Col
leg.
While the good people of the
church are praying for the guiding
hand of the Master in the selection
Of a president of the college to look
after the affairs of the institution al
home; they may we'll pray also tina,
the Master may acquaint DR.. Moffatt
with the minds and intentions of the
board of trustees of the college who
are bent on giving to the small de-
nomination. which is so great de-
nomination, man Of broad visior
and proved accomplishments for the
up-building of the institution.
