CATAWBA COLLEGE
A Plea For Funds For This Institution. —
Campaign Now On.
Catawba College was established over
70 years ago at Newton. This institu-/
fion has meant much to us as a Re
formed Church. She has furnished 65
ministers of the Gospel to our denomina
tion. Besides we have graduated many
ministers for other denominations as well
as other young men and women who
are tilling responsible positions in life.
A very prominent alumnus recently re
marked “Catawba College is the hope of
the Reformed Church in the South.” Do
we want the Reformed Church in North
Carolina to die or do we want her to
live? True * hearts will say. "Let the
church and the college live together.”
Catawba is a Christian college. The
meaning of Christian education is edu
cation with a view to making and de
veloping Christian character. Next to
maintaining a Christian home and a
Christian church, comes the obligation
to maintain the Christian school.
Catawba College served her day well
for many years at Newton. But now
her buildings are old and in unany re
spects do not appeal to our young peo-i
pie. The student body has been small
for a number of years and we feel hope
lessly in debt. Our equipment was so
poor and our endowment so small that
the student who attended school there
received no credit as compared with
other colleges of the state.
The trustees decided to move from
Newton to Salisbury for several reasons.
First, Salisbury offered us property con
sisting of one fine new school building
2117 feet long, never used, and 43 acres
of land, well located, just overlooking
the city, all of which actually cost about
$200,000 for the sum of $43,000. 1 Sec
ond, we will be located in the very cen
ter of the Reformed church in North
Carolina. Third, we will be surround
ed by five counties that do not have an
“A" grade college. Fourth, we start off
with-entirely new buildings.
What is our plan? Answer: to
make/it an "A” grade institution. To
do tl/at we need to begin with, $400,000
for endowment. v We are making plans
now to raise this amount. This is the
way—we propose to do it : $150,000 in
the North Carolina C’assis: $50,000 in
Salisbury: and $200,000 in the Reformed
Church North and West. The new de
velopment. expansion and endowment,
now so urgently needed, can only be ac
complished by earnest work, co-opera
tion. and liberality. Let our rich men
give large amounts. - Let others give
smaller amounts. Let all work together
for a greater Catawba College and a
greater Reformed Church in tjie south
land.
The campaign is now on. The-preach
ers will talk Catawba College from the
pulpit. Pledges will be taken the last
week in September. Plan to double
your subscription. Pray for the college
and the workers every day. “Boost,
don’t knock.” Now js your time. It
is the proud hope of Catawba College
that it can take hoys and girls from our
homes, and. at a moderate cost, train
them for Christian leadership. Help us
in this campaign . If one man says,
“Let the other fellow do it,” we fail, but
if each man says. "Let me do my duty
until it hurts,” then we succeed. X.

AA’e old soldiers from Salisbury arriv
