It is useless for me to tell you what your own thoughts have expressed about the wise selection of the man who presides over this orphanage. Situated In a town of schools, well known for its culture and refinement, it Is no wonder your asylum has prospered. The people of Oxford are always ready and willing to help push forward this great work you have laid out. There are many things that we love and honor In Ox ford. We take pride in our public schools where the great work of transforming the crude native intel lectual and spiritual forces i scarried on by our faithful teachers. We honor their efforts; we applaud their sacrifices. We love the churches and the noble work they are doing. Our feelings go out in gratitude to the private school sand college in our midst. We cannot help congratulat ing ourselves on the growing com munity spirit manifecting itself in all of our public relationships. But when we consider all of these; when we look upon all of the objects of af fection and love that enter into and make up our better nature; when we strip off thought after thought and passion after passion' till we reach the innermost shrine of our being, there nestling closest to our heart we find our love for this home of the homeless, this shelter for the little ones deprived of a father's protect ing arm and mother's caressing affec tion. Though everything else have soma tinge of commercialism or shadow of selfishness, our feelings for this Institution Is pure and un stained.

Of the business offices filled by students who had their only schooling In these class-rooms add work-shops. Of the haimr and nun. ful homes presided over by girls whose lives were transformed and developed within these walls and un der the shade of these noble oaks. But you know of this already.

Hackett then introduced the orator of the day, Gen. B. S. Royster, of Oxford The central thought in General Royster's address, forcibly uttered in his first sentence and running as an unbroken, throbbing current through every paragraph, was his in terpretation of the principles of Ma' sonry, universal brotherhood, self- sacrificing efforts for the uplifting of our needy brothers. In his own words, 'Love for our fellowman and an earnest desire to lift him to a plane of greater usefulness and to breathe into him a true fraternal spirit is the great underlying princi ple of Masonary.. It does not under take to right man's spiritual condi tion.: Its mission is to show him that he is a man, created in the image of the great Father of the Universe, and as such to reflect in his every action the likeness of the Father.' To the student of current history, examining carefully the growing spirit that' is beginning to permeate all states and institutions, all parties and organizations, it must be plain that this same principle is not con fined to Masonry ,but wherever are found men gathered together under any climate or for any purpose this leaven is at work. You see It In England where the buttressed privi leges of the long ascendent feudal classes totters and trembles before the onward sweep of triumphant de mocracy. It is plainly evident in America, where we find the progres sive elements of all parties shaking off the shackles that have been al most Imperceptibly bound about them by the cunning skill of monopolistic greed. At 2: 45 the children of the Orhpan age gave an entertainment in front of the main building, consisting of games, drills, and recitations. Bar becues, sandwiches, ice cream, and lemonade in great abundance was of fered., for sale for the benefit of the Asylum, and quite a revenue is se cured every year from this source. History of the institution. What is now the Orphanage, an institution supported jointly by the state and Masonic order, started out as a college. It was from this fact that one of the oldest and best known streets in the town Is called College street, and is quite puszling to visi tors, in as much as the only college in the town Is on the extreme oppo site side. Even as far back as 1888 the Grand Lodgs of Masons of North Carolina took into- consideration the I establishment of a "Masonic Semi nary". Not until 185U, however, was any definite action taken. At this time a committee was appointed to select a location for the school which was made at ixford, Granville county. A committee, consisting of John Gray Bynum, John A. Lilting ton, and P. H. Winston, was appoint ed to outline a course of instruction and Bystem of education proposed The matter was then taken up through the subordinate lodges of the state and arrangements were made to proceed with the enterprise A committee was appointed which secured an act of incorporation from the general assembly for the "Ma sonic College" at Oxford. ( A campaign was started at once to raise $50,000 for the equipment pf the college. As soon as sza.uuo was raised the trustees were impowered to contract for a building. At this time there were only 65 lodges un der the jurisdiction of the Grand Lodge of North Carolina, but in 1851 an exceptional growth of the order took place, both as to the" number of lodges and interest and strength of the fraternity. The name "St, John's College" was decided on and active steps taken for its establish ment. In 1853 a tract of land containing 10 Sacres was purchased from E. H Hicks admirably located near the corporate limits of the town of Ox ford, the purchase price being $4,480 On June 24, 1855, known as St John's day, the corner-stone of the first building was laid with appro priate ceremonies, Rev. L. L. Smith of Warrenton, being the orator of the day. In 185? the trustees reported to the Grand Lodge of the state that the building had been completed at a cost of $23,000, and that $13,000 of this amount was still unpaid. The doors, of the cojlege were opened July 13, 1 858, with Prof. Ashball G Brown, a distinguished educator, in charge, and Mr. James Campbell, as sistant. The school did not seem to prosper. Within the next few years there were several changes in the fac ulty and a tremendous effort was made to push the institution on to success. About this time the Civil War broke out ajid St. John's Col lege suspended operations. At the close of trfe war John H. Mills, who was conducting a female school at Oxford, made arrangements with the trustees to move into the college building. After a few years Mr. Mills gave up the school, which was continued until 1871 by several successive principals. At no time from the beginning, did either St John's College for boys or the school for girls following it, show any sign of prosperity, and in 186'8 the prop erty was sold under a mortgage held by Capt. John Berry, and bought In by the Grand Lodge of Masons for $7,000. Various attempts were made by the trustees after this to sell or lease the property for a school, but in vain, and when the Grand Lodge met in 1872 the great and puzzling question was what to do with the "St, John's College" property. In des peration a resolution was introduced to sell the property at any price that could be secured, but at this juncture John H. Mills, the man of the hour, and destined to be the founder of more than one orphanage came forward with a substitute reso lution that the college be converted into an institution " for the protec tion, training, and education" of the indigent orphan children of North Carolina. This was done, and an institution that had made two failures at last became a most brilliant success and has been of untold blessing to the thousands of orphan children who have found shelter and training within its walls. John H. Mills was the first superintendent. The orphanage has a farm of about 200 acres, a little over 100 in cultivation. There are 330 children in attendance. The general assembly makes an annual appropriation of $10,000 for the support of the insti tution which with assistance from the Masonic order and private donations represent the outside assistance. The singing class that makes an annual tour of the state brings in a considerable revenue, netting last year something over $9,000. Your Neighbor's Experience. How you may profit by it.

So do most of the Independent papers, So do many' republican papers. feature of the situation rarely re ferred to is that the house democrats have presented bills so just and fair that several of the more liberal and progressive republican , members have voted for our bills. This is gratifying and is an evidence of the effect we are making on reasonable republicans throughout the country. "In the meantime the republican senate is doing little and that lit tle is in the direction of nullifying all we do. They go at it by indirec tion. Being really opposed to elect ing senators by popular vote, they amend the Rucker resolution in such manner, so they hope, as to lead to its defeat. They are contemplating defeating Rucker's bill for publish ing campaign expenses in the: same way. Senator Root is trying to per form the same operation on the re ciprocity bill.

We feel that we are doing right and that we are sustained in our course not only by democrats with practical unanimity, but also by independents and fair-minded re publicans, and we propose to fight it out on this line if it takes all sum mer." ' 'i' The Republic correspondent holds not brief for, and is not enlisted as an aide to the Clark presidential can didacy. But failure to reflect the growing proportions of the lMssour- ian in that capacity here would amount to ignoring a subject which is a matter of every day gossip in congressional circles. As the Bum- mer wears on; and as the firm con test of house against senate proceeds, it seems certain that Clark will claim a'gradually increasing share of the daily practical news. It is gen erally predicted that he will grow rather than diminish in size as a na tional figure. Developments In Mifsouri, where by the Folk men forced the majority of the democratic delegation in the house to declare their loyalty to the Folk-for-president pledge given last year, undoubtedly has given Clark a setback. The course , of Senator Reed in coming into the open, Insist ing that the Missouri democracy is bound to Folk contributed to the setback. It has not stilled the Clark talk; but an essential of a presiden tial candidacy is that Its object shall have bis home state, and the prac tical politicians therefore are loath to get aboard the Clark movement The situation is being used by the well organized backing both of Gov ernors Harmon and Wilson to forge ahead of Clark in the underground campaigning for delegates. Being himself one f the men who adopted the platform in Missouri last Sep tember, which indorsed former Gov ernor Folk, Clark is estopped from approving auy work of active organ ization and campaigning in his be half. Nevertheless the business of working up Clark sentiment is being carried on actively and: openly to some extent. William R. Hearst has enlisted his string of newspapers in the cause. William J. Bryan, is known to be putting a friendly work for Clark in the many states which he is visiting. Oscar Underwood, of Ala bama, Clark's chiew lieutenant in the house, has told his friends that, while Alabama has leaned towards Harmon, a Clark delegation from that state is not an improbability, Colonel William Zevely, of Musko gee, predicts a Clark delegation from Oklahoma. Arkansas congressmen say Arkansas will support the speaker. When politicians from other states go to Missouri democrats and ask of the Missouri situation, the latter reply that Missouri must be for Folk if Folk stays In the race, and If the nominating convention, which meets netx spring to choose delegates to the national convention, agrees that ten Folk pledge must be kept. Through ten loophole offered by the two "ifs" the Clark boom continues to be a tangible thing outside of Missouri. But, as said, the practical political workers wish that the "Ifs" were soon cleared awa A searching of the precedents re veals that only one speaker of the bouse ever became president of the United States, The one was James K. Polk, who was nominated six years after he had left the other of fice. Mr. Polk was a North Caro linian. 1 P. 8.

Friends of the North Carolina Medi cal College Pleased at Showing Made. (Special to The Times.) Charlotte, N. C, June 24 The friends of the North Carolina Medical College of this city, have found much cause for gratification in the events of the past week in Charlotte, espe cially when they remember the storm and stir against the institution in some quarters last year. It will be remembered that almost a year ago the college came in for some scath ing criticism in a report of an "in vestigator" for the Carnegie Founda tion, it being alleged that the col lege was inadequately equipped in the way ot laboratories and other fa cilities for properly training young men to practice medicine.; Following the publication of this report the Forsyth County Medical Society, without making any attempt to ver ify the charges and without making any "investigations, adopted resolu tlons which in. effect protested against the continuance ot the insti tution, asking the-state to refuse to allow the college to bestow degrees and give diplomas, and appealing to the state board of examiners to re- ruse to license graduates of the school. As will be further remembered, it was immediately shown that the Car negie "investigator" spent less than an hour at the North Carolina Medi cal College, did not ask to be shown the laboratory equipment and did not even make it known that he in tended to make, any report. The re port, when it did appear, entirely misrepresented the college, as was shown when it came to light and has since been shown; and the resolu tions of the Forsyth Medical Society which other county associations were asked to endorse, received a cold shoulder all over the state. The opening of the college for the term just passed followed Immediately upon the great stir and the loyalty of students, alumni and friends was Lamply demonstrated. The enroll ment was the largest In the history of the college. Under the auspices of the state board of health a meeting was held in the amphitheatre of the college for the purpose of organizing the North Carolina Health Officers' Asso elation. During the convention of the North Carolina Medical Society the officers and the local physicians interested in the college have been prominent, and Dr. J. P. Munroe, president of the institution, was' sig nally honored, and the Institution he ' represents Incidentally, in his election as first vice president of the society. , Wednesday morning when the state board of medical examiners an nounced Hhe list 'of successful ap plicants for license who had stood the medical examination, it was found that '22 of the 23 graduates of the local institution had passed, and fur ther that two were among the five men who headed the class of . appli cants . that -was - examined, the class numbering 129. The state board was decidedly gratified and, after all the stir thta was started last year, some what surprised at the very thorough and practical training the graduates of the local institution had received. The members of the board, along with the other physicians, wuo were here , are much pleased with the work at the college and believe it has an increasingly important place in the medical profession in the state.
