From Mount Mitchell, North Carolina From the land o' the sky where the world is high Vncl each peak wears its night-cap cloud; Where the dead old day has been laid away With a moonlit sky for a shroud; Where the haisam air works a cure that’s rare And the crisp o' the wind is balm; Where the heaven's own blue makes a saint o' you And the roar o’ the storm is ealin; Where the dew is damp on your shivering camp And the ferns and the moss are pearled; From the land o’ the sky where the hills ride high I salute—from the top o' the world. E. M. Potkat, Jit.

they occupy they represent Harvard. Vale, Johns Hopkins, Cornell, Colby. University of Chicago. University of Pennsylvania. University of Virginia, Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, in this country; and Cambridge (England), Paris (France), Leipzig and Berlin (Germany), abroad. It will be seen that these men are fully competent to maintain the standards set bv Furman, Judson, Reynolds, and Edwards. The Arts degrees offered by Furman University today arc standard and represent a sound liberal education. A CALL AND A CHALLENGE. The facts here brought together constitute a call and a challenge. The South Carolina Baptist State Convention has here a great enterprise on its hands, a great and growing and quite incalculably useful enterprise of fundamental and essential importance to the progress of our people. It enshrines as no other enterprise does or can ever do the traditions and spirit of our history in this State; the great names of that history are forever linked with Furman University. These great Spirits of the past who rule us from their urns and who invested here their love and prayers and gifts invite us of the present generation to join them in their service of all coming generations by like investments of love and prayers and gifts. A prosperity such as they never saw has dawned upon us; resources beyond their dreams are at our command. And they challenge us to do with our means as well as they did with theirs. Men and women of South Carolina who love Christ and their fellows can win no surer title to the gratitude and veneration of coming generations than by linking their names with Furman University, and joining hands to make the University what the opening future demands. As compared with such a use of our resources, the building of private fortunes is despicable indeed, which, as Mr. Andrew Carnegie has lately said, “ministers not to any taste worthy of man . Surely the time cannot be far ofT when individuals, some of whom arc reading this article, will, of their own judgment ns to wise investments and without solicitation put their thousands into Furman University. Of all such we may be sure that generations to come will rise up and call them blessed.
