The students are co-operating with
the faculty in planning for a revival
that is to begin within the next two
weeks. It has been the polity of the
school before to co-operate with the
First Church in all of the evangelistic
services. Such work has proved sat-
isfactory as far as it went. However
we have learned that it is diflicult foi
any man to give sullicionl time at each
place. The man has not been select-
ed yet but will be this week that will
lead in the services.
IH 11 it-
It seems that the liaptists of lirown-
wood are not satisfied with carrying
light loads especially the First
Church. In addition to their local ex-
pense they have assisted two othei
churches in the town in putting up
their houses of worship and built a
chapel in another section of the city
at u cost of $725.00 within the past six
years. For twenty-four years the
chinch has stood behind Howard Pay-
ne College. There has never been i
time her members haven't done tlioi
part for the school and when the
nearby churches failed her nuiiibeis
would sign notes in ord.i to tide ovei
the debts that were made a a lesult
of running the school.
During all the years of hardship-
there has been a sUady giowth h
the membership of the chinch and
marked progress along all lino-i. A'
the regular services the crowds al-
most tax the seating capacity and for
the rapidly (rowing Sunday School
the building is wholly inadequate. The
growth in the town and school togeth-
er with thesp other things makes it
evident to all a new church building i
needed. At a meeting of about one
hundred of the male m mhois Monda;
night the (iiicstion was discussed pro
and con. Much enthusiasm was
aroused and from the tone of the
' speeches on 2 would be convinced that
they are soon to commit themselves to
the task of erecting a new building at
a cost of seventy-live thousand dol-
lars. It may be said here the haul
working and much ctoemed pastor
Dr. L. J. Minis lias largely created
the coditions that makes the new
building a necessity. His members
believe in him and his wise plans and
are willing to follow him in his lead-
ership. JK i
With our Neighbors
With the blooming the blowing and
the growing of early Spring we wish
that all of our neighbors may get some
of the beauty the life and the spirit
of it all. May your columns be fuller
and fresher may they ever be in har
mony with the beautiful Springtime.
"Corial" Simmons: Your Paper
can well he proud of its high standard
of u.sivlli lie;. . The subject matter is
varied reiy field ! touched upon
and treated in a commendable way.
Tin- poems especially are of a higher
note. There aie not many issues with-
out one or more poeim of merit.
"The Laurel" San Marcos liiipllsl
Academy: '1 he exchange department
of your March i.sue is lather dry.
It is made up of worn out phrases in
the exchange world. Try and say
things in a different vn or either say
different things. Nevertheless the
Laurel is an interesting a very read-
able paper. 'I ho articles aie well se-
lected anil are jibove the average in
thought anil composition. Some of
v'our iiatun loving students tell us
about that beautiful country all
around you. It would make an inter-
esting part for your next issue.
"Comet" Austin High School: The
staff of the "Comet" is always on the
uo. Every ed'tor sees to it that his
department is full of life. No editor
is ever too busy not to find time to
make his space the most spirited of
all. The business nianagei more than '
the rest seems determined that the
financial part must come up in full.
"Triiiitoninn" Trinity University:
The exchanges of jour March number
.ire in good form.
The suggestions and comments on
ither papeis are thoughtful and help-
ful and very encouraging. .Many ex-
eliane spaces could profit by your ex-
ample instead of using over some
iver-used criticisms that are dull and
nouotoiiou.
"La I'eata." Uig Spring High: There
s a spirit of willingness all through
.our paper a willing spirit for your
.lass for your new school building
md your town. The editorials are
-.food. They show preparation and
nerit of anj paper. -E. W.
Allie'.s Ingenuity.
(('oiitiiiU(.d I'l'om Last Week.)
V. itli a broad smile the hoy took tin
lote and hastened on his errand while
Allie joined Mrs. Jones in the shabby
dtchtu. "You know'- began the pa-
.ienl little widow "things have been
pretty hard for us but Jimmy has
icen so bia'o. it se m:'. mighty
'tiaiige to me Jii imy's had the ii'or-
'St notions since you've been hole with
that society and Sunday School about
.anting to help some body" continued
h" mother with a note of questioning
n hoi voice.
In that instant the cau:;e of the
pro admiiation dawned on the little
chiol s iistre.su the hoy had a longing
u I like she iiad had to do and be
ait ii'tning and to think she had not
understood befoie! "I tell you" be-
gan Allie "I .see now that boy wants
to be a physician. I understand now
y some little things he's raid here
and there and I believe by next year
at this time I can help him to take
that work in the nearest city. And
ion't you worry either" continued
the gill her r.eal rising with the
thought of k'lich a noble woik "I'll
take caie of you besides." The two
then lapsed into silence and it was not
until the boy leturned and supper
erved that the subject was renewed.
This time it was Jimmy who little
dreamed of the conversation that had
passed between his mother and Allie
that timidly asked a few questions
endeavoring to draw out his adored
teacher and his even engrossing
thoughts. "Yes Jimmy my boy"
readily responded the understanding
Allie it is in you to stir the world by
that big loving heart of yours."
With these brief woids of confidence
Jimmy was content to sit still and

think of those happy days in the fu-
ture and it was not until Allie had re-
tired that the joyous mother broke
the news to her boy. Fire anew was
kindled in the boy's breast and accom-
panying his teacher to school the next
morning ho made a resolution to
make every day count henceforward.
With this mutual understanding
nothing more was said about the sub-
ject but silently Allie watched Jimmy
develop from the awkwaul timid lad
to the business-like studious boy ev-
er working to a definite end. The
months passed. The last day of
school was at hand. The next day all
the kinspeople of the so-called inex-
perienced eagerly expected the care-
worn disgusted school mistress. How
anxiously some of them waited to tell
I the "hard-headed" girl "I told you
!so!" The next day's train came
1 bringing however this short notice

some one else." 1 he tooush child Al-
