ii SERIES OF PAPERS GfJ NGRTH CMU HISTORY
. ' PUBLISHED BY SOCIETY OF THiNITY COLLEGE
Their Publication Was Begun in 1897, and Another Volume Has
Recently Come From the Press Dr. V. K. Boyd, Professor
of History at That College, the Guiding Spirit in the Work of
..the Society.
In 1J97, the Trinity College Histnrl
cal Society began the publication of a
series of historical papers. Since that
time, few publications have had so
marked an influence upon the litera
ture of North Carolina history. Series
XII of these papers is Just from the
press and constitutes a unique num
ber. . Dr. W. K. Boyd, professor of His
tory in Trinity College, has hern for n
" number of years the guidlne spirit In
the work of the society. North Caro
lina history has. In Dr. Boyd one f
its wisest, sanest ana most useful
friends. As a productive schHar anil
as an inspiring teacher, be has mail"
a high place for himself amnni- North
Caolink historians. During the prist
few years, many valuable, interesting
and scholarly papers have appeared
above his name, and he Is only at tin
beginning Of his work. Hut it is as a
teacher as well as -a writer that )i.
commands a high place amiiiiit his
fellows.
In this series appear the first fruits
of one of Dr. Boyd's methods of his
' torlcal instruction. In his own words:
Problem For Teachers.
"Every teacher of American history
In our colleges has before, him a se
rious problem, to introduce those
electing a second or third year in the
subject to the highly specialize,) meth
ods and results of contemporary his
torioel works without sacriftt inn that

" broad, general conception of hit..n-
cat movements. In short, the under

American history has reached a strife

' this situation can be met y the Htu.lv

' or a region In which the ietuI(, an,

'those of the seminar."
This method Dr. Boyd has pursued
with marked success. Two of the

whom we want to interest, to make ar

for the lots on convenient and easy
terms, and then tell these people that
we are ready for them.
We have prepared a hundred and
seventy-five desirable new lots in Myers
Park, with streets, paving, water,
gas, etc. And we have made the ar
ranpenients such that any reliable
man can purchase a lot and build
upon it immediately.
And we tell you, now, that we are !

tribute to, lr. NV. L, Grissom: "For
The Crystal Storm
While we are writing this article,
the world outside the office windows
looks like a fairy palace of ice. Crys-
! tal pennants are hanging from brown
I
' twig and dark green bough, red leaves
and berries on the shrubs are showing
through their covers of glass, and
every blade of grass, every stalk and
stick Is a separate, glistening bit of
beauty.
The air is cold and bracing, and
we look from one view to another
filled with wonder at the beauty of
the world to which we have been
transferred in a few short hours.
In the City a crystal storm is mere
ly an incident. In the Suburbs it is
s
an event!
Combined Qualities.
"The very term 'Suburban Life'
suggests its great advantage. Not of ;
the city, yet near it; combining ru
ral felicity and charm with metro
politan opportunities."
' John D. Lory. In Suburban Life.
years he searched the records, col
lected manuscripts, and traveled far
and near a veritable Itinerant of
Methodist history in order to tell the
story of his Church's achievement in
the State of his nativity. His method
was so thorough and his perspective
so well integrated in the general trend
! of American history that his loss is
felt by those interested in the social
as well as the ecclestical history of
North Carolina."
The most important religious fact
of the early century' was the great re
vival that spread over the State, cul
minating In a great meeting in Ral
eigh in 1811. The author discusses
this epochal movement with sympa
thetic Insight and clear Judgment,
giving especial attention to the part
played by Methodism the leading
Armenian denomination in the State.
Space forbids a full analysis of the
excellent trea ise. but the key to the
whole is found in the authors' clos
ing paragraph:
"The spirit of Methodism is. there
fore. Individualistic. The corporate
spirit is almost entirely lacking, and
its chief product is a liberal attitude
toward all men. Before th Method
ist layman will patronize the Meth
odist merchant or the Methodist
merchant or the Methodist school, he
must be shown that these are us: as
good as any others that can be found
elsewhere. Rarely have the preach
ers exercised a political influence, as
in the case of the Calvanistic clergy.
Moreover as salvation is open to all,
Methodism may use in carrying out
its purposes professors of Chris of
any denominations whatever. This
liberality toward men and human
agenries has been the distinct cin
tribution of Methodism to religions
life and thought in North Carolina.
May it never diminish but increase in
influence as the years go by."

Real Praise
We were very much gratified, re
cently, by the comments of a. well
known Horticulturist and writer who'
visited Charlotte and Myers Park.
In Ave years," he said, "Myers
Park win be classed among the few
finest residential developments In the
country. In the development of pri
vate grounds, as well aa park plan
ning, the real Amrelcan spirit of
Landscape Architecture Is better In
terpreted in Myers Park than In any
other places in the United States.''
This latter remark was particular
ly gratifying, as It has been the pol
icy of the Landscape Architect to
develop Myers Park according to his
idea of true American Landscape
Architecture, and not to copy any
particular Old World school of Land
scape planning.

where the last full meeting was called
and adjourned to the Phifer residence
on North Tryon street. It may still be
possible to locate the stopping places i
