The mission of the schools is to furnish such men and women as will- give correct principles and carry the same into effect. "Nothing less than a liberal educa tion, including Christian truth," de clared Dr. Turrentine, "can make our nation abide in all that is great and good. By liberal education I mean that which - enables the mind to secure broad conceptions and noble emotions, such as develop character; as' well as to receive instruction to apply in spe cial callings." The end thus sought is to train for making a life as well as a living; em phasizing what one is to be a3 well as what one is to do. "The character of the teacher is es sential in this work of education. Books are said to teach, but person ality educates. A teacher must not only teach truth, but must exemplify truth by being true himself. There is a vast difference between a Christian's mathematics and an atheist's.

The sonality enters as an abiding inspira tion into the student's life and conduct. 'We believe . then in an intelligent sibility is incumbent on the church to furnish leaders and teachers adequate ly equipped for such work. Again; the church school is necessary to train leaders for the prime work of evange lism at home and abroad. "Without disparaging other contri buting agencies, the church must be responsible for its necessary leader ship. The church school therefore is needed not only. for the church itself, but also for the sake of tho nation and of the world for the salvation of which the church exists. To fail here would be recreant to a sacred mission; for the church has no more right to turn Over to others her work of edu cation than her evangelism, charity or any other work. Such a mission is nothing less than a divinely appointed duty resting upon us in sharing with the other educational forces seeking to reduce the dark zone of error. "How significant then is the educa tional revival now growing with in creasing interest in our country. How significant also is the fact that with such an educational revival, there seems to be growing a closer bond of sympathy among the educational forces of the church and state in our midst. The church and state must harmoniously, yet distinctly, work out the salvation of our national life. The mission of the church is to make Christians, or to Christianize. The mission of the state is to make cit- piety which gives a true reas. .s for ize?sv? to civilize.

We spurn the idea that ignorance is essential to piety because we believe that there is a close connection ; between the edu cation of the heart and the mind; that true culture of the mental should pro mote the moral, and the moral, the religious. We hold that such piety should anchor its faith and reason in the Bible. We advocate the type . of culture that seeks to promote the largest life and freedom of tooth man hood and womanhood. "In the history of education it is remarkable how slow the world has been to recognize woman's due claims for culture and service. In regard to woman's sphere I claim that since woman is as well endowed for her mission as is man for his, man has no right to claim unqualified super iority over woman nor to place any fetters upon her faculties; but she should have the right to tue best cul ture and service of which the is ca pable. I claim, however, that while both man and woman compose man kind, yet each one is the other's counter part and has to a great ex tent a distinct sphere. Woman's Sphere. "It is then woman's sphere to be the architect of a nation's destiny by laying its foundation and furnishing the plan of its superstructure. Man is as distinctly fitted for the coarser and heavier counterparts of liie-work. Since such i3 true in the nature of things, any change here that ignores such distinctive rights and duties is done at the nation's peril; since no nation is greater than its homes, and its homes are no greater than the women who make them. The education of woman therefore is pre-eminently important. "Greensboro College for Women, without lowering its literary standard, has enlarged its scope of culture by adding during this collegiate year three vocational departments, the de partment of education, training young women to become skilled teachers in the field of general education musi cal pedagogy, preparing young wo men to be efficient teachers of music; and home missions, training in the es sentials of proficiency in the nation's greatest institution,, the home. Accord ingly, we announce that every effort is made to bring students face to face with ideals as well as actualities and to make them see that while skillful labor is to the crowning dignity of life, grace, refinement and self-poise are the highest ingredients of true service. An education is too dear that is purchased at the price of a wrecked body. Adequate provision should then be made to protect and promote the health of the student. Such provision should be at least three-fold; includ ing the physical culture teacher, adapting the exercise or athletics suit ed to each student; the trained nurse, supervising the health interests . and the competent supervisor of kitchen and dining room, insuring scientific knowledge of the preparation of whole some diet, for ill chosen and baldly prepared food can promote , neither health, culture nor piety. 'c "The supreme need of religious edu cation in our nation is riore and more recognized," said Dr. Turrentine, "Whatever the agencies advocated, whether standardizing Sunday schools Ior whether other means are used, the fact still remains that greater respon- and state were in perfect accord with the ideals of a true Christian nation the . entire citizenship would be in cluded within the church, and the joint result would be a Christian cit izenship. The church is the source from which saving influence is to be communicated to a nation's life. The church must furnish the Christian who as citizen, will exert this Chris tian influence through the varied channels of civic conduct; who, as statesman or jurist will administer the righteousness that exalteth a nation. "The church school then claims to be a needed comrade in the crusade against illiterary. Its claim to exist de pends not so much upon it3 likeness, but rather its distinctness of mission and method. It stands specifically for the type of liberal culture, including Christian truth, emphasizing the time honored preceptorial method in indi vidual teaching and training, maintain ing a kind but firm order of discipline, amid refined home like atmosphere of academic freedom, where the prime end is developing Christian character and true service. been men who have arcnmnHshAri ! great deeds, Columbus with hi3 fleet sailing for the Indies and Fulton with his steamboat, deeds and doers then called impractical.

"This college would build the type of womanhood capable of being adapt ed to any of life' conditions, whereby woman has been put in sympathy with town and country, wealth and poverty, work and play, culture and labor; the type of womanhood blending modesty and frankness, gentleness and bravery, interdependence and strength, mag nanimity and self-reliance, the type of womahood portrayed by Horace Mann as a child of God; to have a' face that never pales at the accuser's voice; a heart that never throbs at the fear of exposure; a soul turned inside out and shows no trace of dishonor; to have done no one a wrong; to have lived unseduced; witnm an arm s length of what is not your own, "with nothing between your' desire and its gratification but the invisible law of rectitude.' "With such a mission of public serv; ice the college claims the communi ty's cherished f love, honor and sup port. The richest asset of this insti tution is the love anK loyalty of her daughters and friends. The officers and teachers can render their best service only f when generously and intelligent ly supported by an appreciative con stituency. Accordingly, we welcome the chief magistrate of our stLte and other distinguished citizens of the commonwealth, who testify by their presence at these ceremonies, the friendly interest that the old north state feels in her oldest chartered college for women. We welcome the alumnae who have labored for the welfare of the Institution, which through fiery ordeals, still abides as their college home. May nothing cause your love to wane nor your ser vice to weary!" Dr. C. W. Byrd presided as toastmas ter at the banquet. M. H.
