THEY KNOW NOT THE MAN
(Durham Herald)
We have contended, possibly with(
too much energy, that the warfare
that has been waged against Dr. W.
L. Poteat, president of Wake Forest
college, is based on a lack of infor
mation. This war has been raging
for a couple of years, and promises
to reach a climax at the State Bap
tist convention which meets in Char
lotte next month. It is understooc
that there is an organized movement
to change the manner of electing
trustees of Wake Forest, in order, it
is believed, to put in a board that
will compel the resignation of Dr.
Poteat. Os course, the cause prompt
ing this is the difference of views on
evolution.
We are firmly of the opinion that
Dr. Poteat is not understood. The
attacks on him are based on the
general assumption that he is not
a religious man because he believes
in evolution, the theory being that
no man can be an evolutionist and a
Christian. Os course such a belief
is without firm foundation.
A few days ago, Dr. Poteat ad
dressed an audience in Winston-Sa
lem, following which ✓the Winston
Journal carried the editorial quoted
here, and we are reproducing it as
more evidence that when people un
derstand Dr. Poteat, they can have
no foundation for questioning his
deep-rooted religious convictions and
his sincerity as a Christian:
“After hearing Dr. William Louis
Poteat discuss science and religion in
Winston-Salem, one wonders the
tumult among the Baptists in North
Carolina is all about.
“Surely no man could be found
for the presidency of Wake Forest
college who could go stronger on
faith in the Bible and the Bible’s God
than Dr. Poteat went when he told
more than a thousand men here that
‘the scientist who says there is no
God, no spirit world, no miracle, is
the fool of the Scriptures,’ and to
prove his conviction quoted from the
Bible, ‘The fool hath said in his heart,
There is no God.’
“Please note that in this brief but
all-inclusive statement the eminent
educator and scientist put himself on
record not only as one having faith
in God and the spirit world, but as
one who believes in miracles. What
more can a Christian be asked to be
lieve ?
Dr. Poteat says that he hears more
about evolution in a day traveling
over North Carolina than he hears in
a year at Wake Forest College. And
yet, to hear some well-meaning, but
misinformed people talk, one would
think that the students of Wake
Forest and other higher institutions
of learning in North Carolina, too,
for that matter, are fed on evolution
morning, noon and night.
“It would be humorous, if it were
not tragical, that Christian people
could get themselves so wrought up
over a theory or doctrine, when
Jesus, Himself, never stopped to ar
gue with anybody about theories. To
Jesus, religion was not doctrine, or
creed, or theory. It was life. And it
is nothing short of tragedy when
Christians take the emphasis off of
life, where Jesus placed it and left
it, and put it instead on pet theories
and doctrines about life.”
Dr. Maddry at Lystra
Dr. Chas. E. Maddry, Baptist State
Secretary of Missions, will preach at
Lystra next Sunday, October 8, at 11
A. M. Dr. Maddry is a big man and
a fine preacher and a great crowd

SCHOOL MATES PAY LOVING
TRIBUTE
In a short service at twelve o’clock
last Friday the fourth, fifth, and
sixth grades paid a last loving tribute
* to a little schoolmate, Nora Petty.
5 Miss Harris, teachers of the fifth and
* sixth grades, opened the services with
1 a short, quiet story of how nobly and
’ sweetly Nora went about her work m
: the schoolroom and hod good she was
’ everywhere one found her. The chil
* dren sang “Jesus Loves Me” in tones
which showed how real was the sor
row voiced by Elizabeth Womble when
L she said, “Nora loved everybody.
r Shu, was always kind and good. We
j will miss her in school, at play, and
: all the time.” Miss Edwards, teacher
' of the fourth grade, who had Nora
' with her all of last year and knew so
1 well how lovable she was, read two
verses from the twelfth chapter of
' Ecclesiastes and prayed that all who
! had known her might have the same
! beautiful attitude toward life which
' Nora had. Tears streamed from
1 childish faces and broken sobs sound
; ed throughout the room as “Every
; body Ought to Love Jesus” was
sung. Not a child was there who had
not heard Nora sing the song and seen
her live it. She will always be re
membered for the unfailing loveliness
of her disposition. She was a good
sport on the playground and a faith
ful student. Whenever we remember
good playfellows and real friends we
will be remembering Nora.
