We'not only are doing .these things now but pla nto continue to uphold free enterprise and the Christian re ligion as a vital core of our phi losophy, said Dr. Poston. R. Patrick Spangler, national general chainman of the college’s development campaign, expressed pleasure at the announcement and said, ‘‘Th Lindsays have done a wonderful thing for the college and young people. I know and feel they know this is an invest ment in the future of our nation. At Gardner-Webb College stu dents live within a framework which upholds our American ^ys- •^em—the system under which am- ibitious, hard-working people like the Lindsays have done so well.” Well known for their dairy goat 'arm located on the Chimney Rock Road near Riutherfordton. the Lindsays have quietly gone about 41 years of supporting civ- c, church and educational pro jects in this area. Many physi cians and ministers had their way through college and grad uate study paid by this couple and soT.e few in other fields have icon aided when the couple felt he person was deserving. The unassuming couple have a ton Mill Chain of^ Charlotte, staying with this firm until hto retirement 10 years ago. Mrs. Lindsay, a keen, lively lady, is a graduate of Western OMSOBiSI College. She taught for sev«?al years and later operated a ladies specialty shop before assuming the role of a housewife and work ing with the. dairy herd. The two stay busy now with their garden, seyera 1 beautiful flower gardens, business inter ests, the dairy herd and helping others. Two youths from the Phi lippines who were reared by the Lindsays, remain on the farm to help. Erlindo and Florendo Guil lermo, now in their mid-20's, came to the farm eight years ago to learn th^ dairy goat trade and have remained. One is now mar ried to an American girl and they have one child, of whom Mrs. Lindsay speaks with pride. Mrs. Jessie Mae Shattuck is the herd foreman and has been with the Lindsays'for 15 years. It’s best not to refer to dairy goats as simply "goats” around Mrs. Lindsay who quickly lets you know the difference ond ther. can enthrall anyone with stories of working with the Sandburgs in starting a dairy goat herd. "Why a dairy goat is like a child." said Mps. Lindsay, as she relates rushing homesick dairy goats back to their mother herds lose friendship with the Carl | and of using an Intercommunlca- andburgs and started their dairy ;oat herd, which now numbers a- ound 200, with the help of Mrs. Sandburg. The raising of dairy goats was started as a hobhv but ascinated them so completely hat in a few^ years they were upplying Biltmore Dairies with ill of their goat milk for the two arolinas. It was through their assistance that the new Abbey of Gethsem- ani. Home of the Trapese Monks, at Bardstown Ky., was initiated into the dairy goat business. The cheeses sold by the Trapese Monks are world famous and the formula they use has been a secret of their order for centur ies. Bardstown was the home of Stephen Foster. Both are natives of North Car*, olina. Mrs. Lindsay was born at Andrews and Mr. Lindsay is a native of Reidsville in Rocking ham County. His father, T.

State Uni- tions system from the house to the barn in order to talk with an expectant mother goat. "That sounds funny,” she said, “But dairy goats have a different sound when they are ready to deliver and can communicate this to us through the intercom 'Sys tem.” Asked why goat’s milk. is recommended by so many doc tors in many cases. Mrs. Lindsay states that some of the reasons ■are its small curds which digest easily, the fact that its homogeh: ized by nature, is alkaline in re action lind slightly laxative. One area citizen stated that many persons have been referred to the Lindsay’s for goat milk for health reasons and that in cases where money,was not available these persons receiv-ed the milk free of charge. “It has saved the life of some persons,” said the citizen.
