A monthly Baptist newspaper started in May, 1899, as the organ of the Atlantic Association; twice' enlarged and improved within a year; in January, 1902, its field was so extended as to embrace the “Bap tist Destitution of about twenty counties in Kastern North Carolina, the territory lying mainly in the bounds of the Atlan tic, Neuse, Wilmington and Tar River Associations. give their Adma Mater their assistance. Let every Baptist and every son of the college rally to her support. Every Baptist should send his son to this, his own in stitution. There are ..other schools for other boys, but Wake Forest is the place for Baptist boys. Expense is no longer a barrier in the way. Any poor boy can go to this fountain and drink.

Rev. C. M. Rich changed his address from Clinton to Warsaw. The mid-summer meeting at Jackson Spnngs was a great suc cess. Dr. and Mrs. Tyree are in London, attending the Baptist World Congress. THE SUNDAY SCHOOL. Quite a number of our people are now releasing their hold on the Sunday school, esp>ecially„ in the country. The protracted meeting season is On and each one feels that it is his duty to visit every tneetiug that is held within ten liiiles of his home, and thus allow his Sunday School to suffer. This is a mistake. The place for you on Sunday is in the Sunday school, especially if yon are a teacher. Many teachers lose their hold on their classes by staying a'way half of their time, and finally the pupil stops. Teachers, at tend to your classes and then you will aid ill holding the Sunday School together during the hot summer months, Christ has commanded you to teach his word, Will you obey? Rev. J. N.

Tew has entered upon his work at Salembnrg with fine prospects for a fruitful pas- toiate.

On June 22, 1905, Doctor William Lois Poteat was elected President of Wake Forest College to succeediDr. C B, Taylor, who has resigned to enter the field to raise the endowment of the col lege. DodtiTr* Poteat will take charge of the college business about Sept. ist. The Trustees are to be congratulated on their selection of such an able Presi dent. President, Poteat is an A. M. graduate of Wake Forest and is second to no college president in the South. “wheels within government of WAKE FOREST There are few colleges in North Carolina that can equal Wake Forest College. It is true that she had an humble birth, yet she has risen to be the equal of any college. About seventy years ago our forefathers saw the need of education—and bought a large tract of land—mostly forest from which it got its name—and or ganized the Wake Forest Manual Training School. This became the centre of Baptist influence and the Manual Training School soon became Wake Forest Col lege. It is true that the old institu- tntlon had a hard struggle lor .ex istence, but she has kept afloat during all the financial crisis, until today she stands with a glorious history behind her and future lull of hope and promise. Such saintly men as Waitt, Wingate, Pritchard and Taylor with their co-workers were suffi cient for the demand, and her thousands of sons stand ready in all parts of the world today to God’s Inumerable Agencies. There are wheels’’ in the God, He makes use of an end less variety of agencies, in the accomplishment of his unsearh- able designs. Potiphar’s wife. Pharaoh’s but ler, Pharaoh’s dreams. Pharaoh himself, the dungeon, the throne, the fetter, the royal signet, the famine—all are at his sovereign disposal, and all are made in strumental in the development of his stupendous counsels The spiritual mind delights to dwell upon this. It delights to range through the wide domain of creation and providence, and to recognize in all the machinery which an All-wise and an Al mighty God is using for the pur pose of unfolding his counsels of redeeming love. True we may see many traces of the serpent many deep and well-defined foot prints of the enemy of God, and man ; many things which we cannot explain, nor even com prehend ; suffering innocence and successful wickedness may furnish an apparent basis for the infidel-reasoning of the sceptic mind ; hut the true believer can piously repose in the assurance that “the Judge of all the earth shall do right.” He knows right well that “Blind unbelief is sure to err. And scan his way in vain, God is his own interpreter. And he will make it plain.” Now for the Union meeting ! Let all the people turn out and help make it a great success. Rev. F. O. Johnson . and wife are spending their vacation with their people near Lumberton, Rev. D. C. Britt has resigned the work at Rockingham. His resignation takes effect Oct. ist. Rev. I.
