CO. (BY MAMIE BAYS) Emphasizing the nation-wide need of education, and of Christian educa tion, Robert E. Speer said recently: 'The war has revealed to us the mag nitude and gravity of our whole prob lem of education. A democracy is not safe with such a mass of illiterates as the war has uncovered- But the problem is not solved simply by in creasing the percentage of literates to the total population. We need not simply education, but Christian educa tion training that issues in relig ious convictions and Christian person alities. Our strength lies in the intelligent religious convictions of our people. In the more com prehensive sense of the term, the whole problem of the church is now more clearlv seen to be one of educa tion. We have to bring every avail able resource to bear to make the pul pit, the Sunday school, the day school, the university, the theological semi nary, all our educational factors, effi cient in carrying out the real task of the church of training men and women in Christian character." It is probable that never before in North Carolina has the cause of Christian education, and the need for the same, received such united and such forceful and effective emphasis as it is receiving pow, during the progress of the million . dollar cam paign for Presbyterian schools and controlled by the synod of North Carolina. This campaign will close on March 1, and its success will mean increased equipment and en dowment for the ten schools of the synod located in its territory and also for Union Theological Seminary, lor cated at Richmond, Va., and owned and controlled, jointly, by the synods of North Carolina and Virginia. Sunday, January 11, this campaign will receive special emphasis in Win stonSalem and following the pre sentation of the cause of Christian education from the Presbyterian pul pits on Sunday morning a canvass of the Presbyterians of the Twin City will be conducted by the general as sembly's team of Christian education and the Presbyterians of that city will be requested to pledge $50,000 to en rlnw a chair at Davidson colleere, and it is expected that this quota will be pledged with a creditable margin. From the offices of the Million Dol lar Campaign Committee, located at Greensboro, it is announced that the uledges to the millin dollar fund have reached almost $700,000 leavng more than $300,000 to be recured between now and the closing day of the cam paign.
