largest gif,ts evernada for the educa
tion of yong wtnnea in tyrth Carolina
has been mads by Mr, J. W. "Fitejrer
ald of Davidsori county. Mr. Fitxerald
hw agreed to donate fo'the trustees of.
Greensboro Female College the. sam pf
0,000 for the purpose el erecting
ddrtniiory on the cortditi()n ' that- other
frunds of the college contribute $15,
000.: - - ' ' .. '
-A few months ago the trustees decid
ed to build a dormitory to cost $25,000
as soon as the funds could be secured.
Daring the' past rthree years many
Students have been turned away for the
lack of room and a new building was
necessary before the patronage could
ba inciefted. W. M. Curtis, secretary
and treasu w of the college, has ben
engaged in the campaign to raise the
necessary $25,000. He has secured up
to this time $6,000 and now. the gift of
Mr. -Fi; zgerald leaves only $9,000 to be
raised it order to secure the proposed
new dormitory.
The Methodists of the state sorely
will not be slow in raising this amount
so as to secure the much needed build
ing.
Mr- Fitzgerald is a farmer. He is
well known in Davidson county and is
one of it best citizens. Ha is a loyal
member of the Methodist Church and
has been a philanthropist in a quet'ay
for many years. Through his gene'ros
ity chiefly a splendid church was built
near bis heme, and many times the be
nevolences and institutions" of his
Church have received his gifts. He has
long bten a friend of Greensboro . Fe
male College and educated some of his
niecns there. A few years ago, when
an i.ffort was made to secure an endow
ment of $100,000, Mr. Fitzgerald con
tributed $1,000. Believing that he can
make no better investment than to in
vest in an institutioi which has for its
object the development of Christian
womanhood, he now comes forward
w th this magnificent, gift of $10,000.
Mr. JPrtzgeralp) is not a man of Urge
wealth,, and this action of his will be an
inspiration to others who have a desire
to invest a p trt of their means for the
uplift of humanity.

WHY THIS BANK IS SAFE.
One of the chief reasons why this bank has attained Buch
a marked degree of success during the four years of its ex
istence can be traced directly to the discrimination exercised
in making loans. The loans of this bank are made with the
view to protecting the interests of depositors rather than ex
cessive profits and in every case are limited to moaerate
amounts. ,
