Mrs. Gielow Writes of Mountain
Whites and Home Missions
About twenty-five year* ago the Wo
man’s Home Missionary Society of the
M. E. Church was orsanlaed and
brought Into existence for the purpose
of bettering the religious and educa
tional condition* of the emancipated
slaves of the South. With but a small
beginning thl* organization has not
only established mnny school* for ne
gro girls In every state in the Union,
but has extended It* Christianizing aid
Into many foreign land*, and last, but
not least, now supports and operates
four schools for the white girl* of the
mountain districts of the 8outh: The
Rltta Home at Athena, Tenn.. the
Bennett Home at Clarkson. Miss., the
Mitchell Home In Cedar Valley. N. C.,
and the Rebecca McCluskey Home In
Bnaz, Ala.
The first mission In the Southern
mountains was established, however, by
the Presbyterian board at Asheville, N.
C., twenty years ago, and through the
effort* of these untiring workers for
humanity >1 schools and 14 missions
now stand to their credit. Other mis
sion boards and denominations have
also Joined In this noble work to uplift
the white womanhood of the mountains,
until we are Informed that there are
now 68 schools established. With *8
religious schools and with public
schools, the question Is asked, "What
more do they need to solve the problem
of the mountain whites?" What more
do they need! That Is a very pertinent
question, and I am glad to be able to
respond to It. "What more do they
need?” Well, let us see. The area ooy r
ered by the Appalachian region extends
from West Virginia throughout the
Southern states to Alabama. It Is estl
mated to contain nearly three million
people—one-half of which live In the
nigh and Inaccessible mountain tops of
this wonderful and beautiful range, and
because of their remoteness are cut oft
•Imoat entirely from the progress of
civilization. One-half million of these
highlanders are located In the moun
tains of Western North Carolina, where
It Is said that the public schools "hnve
•Iways beeti," though of "low grade
fnd short duration,” and that they
have not been "uplifting to the people
concerned.” Certainly the grade must
“*ve been Exceedingly "low" not to
**ve had more encouraging results, and
” **ems very evident that much mls-
'lonary work Is needed where "the
While schools have railed to Inspire and
uplift.” |n reply to the question "What
more do they need?" I would say 68
[“ore missions, and a better grade and
longer system of public and Industrial
■chools.
North Carolina la a grand old com
monwealth. She can proudly boqat of
”«r many, cultured men and women,
*"d she Is struggling bravely with the
Problems that have fallen to her and to
“or sister states. She has lately added
t*o-ml!llon donation to her annual
donated ten millions to that fund had It
been possible to do so. For this good
old mother Is first In Illiteracy with 18
per cent of Illiterate native-born white
children over ten years of age on her
hands. A body of white Illiterates that
In 1800 more than doubled the number
of the combined white population of
her sixteen largest cities. (See Twelfth
Census of the United States, volume 1,
page 25.)
If North Carolina could have do
nated 110.000,000 Instead of 12,000,000, It
would not be sufficient for the work
necessary to be done In her rural dis
tricts alone. If a mission home could
be established In every one of her
seventy-six counties It would not be
one too many. With all that Is being
done In the Old North State and In
other states for these, "our contem
porary ancestors," so-called by the
president of Berea College, much Is yet
to be done, for In the language of Miss
Snider, the national organizer of the
Woman’s Home Missionary Society,
"the filed Is so vast, and the workers
so few, It seems an almost hopeless
task” And Miss Smith, of the New
York board of domestic missions,
writes "that the work among the
mountain whites Is both encouraging
and discouraging. Encouraging In
the wonderful results, discouraging In
that the pathetic cry of these people
for more light must be disregarded
for lack of helpers."
In fact. It can easily be learned that
In every one of these mission homes
for the mountain whites "every year
more girls are turned away than are
admitted—for the want of more room
and more money." If there Is any
doubt that more helpers, more schools
—••Christian,” "Industrial” and pub
lie”—are needed, go visit these In
accessible districts, .where the lone
mission worker tolls and see for your
self. For, as Miss Snider told me, and
as I already knew, "only those who
have gone and seen with their own
eyes can ever know or realize the pitia
ble condition of these people." A very-
good Idea of uliat work Is being done
ami of the work that needs to be done
among these highlanders of our South
ern mountains, can he easily gotten
during the winter season In New York
city from what we hear In the pulpit
and on the platform. For New York
Is not only the headquarters of "mil
lionaires" and "trusts," but that great
metropolis la also the headquarters of
philanthropists and missions, and It Is
to this Mecca the earnest workers of
the mountain missions and the various
missionary fields all over the world
turn for help, nnd seldom fall to re
delve. It was In New' York I heard a
voung deacon from Virginia who was
on Ids annual solicitation visit to the
metropolis tell of the destitution of and
Ignorance of thousands of the Isolated
whites tr the mothft state,
In New York I heard - ■
ever pervading poverty and Ignorance
of the mountain people he was endeav
orlng to uplift."
I heard a stanch young deacon from
South Carolina apeak on the subject
of child slavery In the cotton milts
Y la . 1 Picturing the horrors
of their condition with a pathos be
yond words. It was there I heard the
venerable silver-haired bishop of Ar
kansas plead for aid, that he might
carry the light of the gospel to the
two hundred and fifty thousand chll
dren of Arkansas,” who had "never
seen the inside of -a school house nor
heard a sermon."
There were missionaries from deer
gla anil Tennessee, and my heart
yearned to lay a million at the feet of
the good nrchdeheon of the Valle Cruel*
school when 1 heard him talk of the
great work and the great need In that
district—where Bishop Homer is giv
ing hi* life for the mountaineers of
North Carolina. And I longed to re
spond to his appeal nnd to the appeals
from the Morganton district, where
Bishop Satterlee's son gave up his lire
In tolling for these people. Pleading,
pleading, pleading, all pleading for aid
for this great educational work In our
Southland. And these missionaries
horn I heard—came to see me at the
Park Avenue hotel, to ask my Inter
est. and to secure aid and help from
the Southern Industrial Educational
Association—grateful for even the
promise of one scholarship for a boy or
girl—be It for 150 or (25.
it was In New York, too, I lifted
my own voice In unison with theirs—
In behalf of these people of the South
ern highlands—"these people strug
gling toward the light, these people
who will use with anxious gratitude
each guiding thought put In their
way.”
We asked In the name for the na
tion aid for these children of the na
tion—for to the nation they belong—
North, South, East and West—and It
Is to the nation we desire to restore
her own neglected offspring.
And In New YorkJ heard Booker T.
Washington pleading, not for a few
scholarships, or a few hundred or Even
a few thousand dollars, but for "one
million eight hundred thousand," to
complete a three million endowment
on one school for his people. His plea
was eloquently seconded by Embassa
dor Choat, Mr. Ogden nnd Mark Twain.
And on a subsequent occasion this
eminent negro not only spoke In behalf
of his own race, but grandlloquently
nsked the good people of the North to
"help lift up the poor white brother
along with the black.” If there Is no
need for this work among our moun
tain brothers, why the many appeals
from the workers In the field? Why
the hundreds of leaflets asking for aid
distributed by the mission boards alt
over the land?
The vast per cent of Illiteracy In our
Southern state* speaks for Itself and
answers our question. There are 18
per cent of the native bom whites of
North Carolina over 10 years or age
needing Christian and Industrial edu
cation to fit them for citizenship: 1?
per rent In Louisiana, 13 per cent In
South Carolina. 11 per cent In Oeor

With practically every old student
back, and with hundreds of new ones
seeking admission, the authorities of
the Georgia School of Technology are
preparing for what they hope will be
the most prosperous year lu the history
of the Institution. Already the dormi
tories are crowded to their utmost ca
pacity and many are seeking board in
homes close to the school. The num-
fcer who have reported for entrance
examination Is the largest In the his
tory of the Institution.
At a recent mrctlqg of the board of
trusteis an assistant In the depart
ments of electrical and experimental
engineering was authorized, and Pro
fessor N. E. Funk has been secured fur
this work. Profecsnr Funk Is a grad
uate of Lehigh University and since
leaving college has token the full West-
Inghouse apprentice course In the snop
of Westlnghouse Electrical Company
at Pittsburg, which Is considered one
of the best training schools In the
world for practical engineers. Only
K aduates of technical schools who
ow exceptional ability are allowed
to enter for this course, nnd a certifi
cate from there is considered one of
the best recommendations that can be
given.
For adjunct professor In the depart
ment of drawing Ur. Matheson has se
cured Professor Dwight Lowell.
With the appointment of these two
men the facuity of the school Is now
complete, and every department Is In
charge of trained specialists, who are
In a position to give the very best of
attention to the men In the various de
partments.
With the now chemical laboratory
ready for opening, and the construction
of the library soon to be under way, the
Tech is now probably the-best-equipped
Institution of the kind In the South, nnd
everywhere Its graduates are recogniz
ed as the very beat. Last year there
were 30 positions open to the 16 grad-
uates In the electrical engineering
course before the graduation exercises,
and It ha* become a byword that a
diploma from the Tech Is equal to a
position any day. During the past Bum
mer the chemical department has re
ceived several requests for men which
they were unable to fill.
On Friday the last of the entrance
examinations will be over, and Mon
day morning the regular recitation
work will begin.
Friday night a reception for the new
students has been planned and a num
ber of prominent speakers will address
the students. Including Coach Helsman
and President Matheson. The details
of the reception have been In the hands
of General Secretary J. Immbert Nell,
of the Tech Y. M. C. A., and It ha* been
planned with an Idea of getting the
new men acquainted with each other
and with the old students. Thl* Is the
first step toward Increasing and mak-
Ing pleasant the *oclal life of the
school, something which ha* to a cer
tain extent been lacking In past year*.
With the restoration of Atlanta to It*
normal conditions, politics Is warming
up at city hall. •
The scurry for places on the park
commission Just now Is attracting the
most attention, and behind It all Ilea
a surprise.
It's like this:
Last Juno council very quietly pass
ed an ordinance, which provided that
the park commission shall be made up
of the mayor and chairman of the com
mittee on parks, each ex-olflclo, nnd
six other commissioners to he elected
by the general council at It* last meet-«
Ing In 1806 aa follows: Tw j to «erye
for one year, two to serve for two
yoara and two for three years! at the
end ot these respective terms their
successors shall be elected for a full
term of three years each.
The ordinance, which sort of slipped
through without attracting any atten
tion or publicity, was Important Inas
much a* It deprived the mayor of ap
pointing the board and practically put
It all In the hUnds of the present coun
cil.
It Is now understood that several
member* of the present council are
candidates for the park board. It Is
said that Councilman Oldknow and
Wlkle, both of w'hom retire this year,
are in the race.
Now here la where the surprise
comes In: ' ‘
There Is a movemAit on foot to ab
rogate this new ordinance and restore
the appointive power of tho mayor, so
amending the original ordinance as to
provide for one commissioner from
each ward.
The politic* behind It?
There aurely must have been some,
for thero seemed last June no neces
sity for a change. And then It was
kept mighty quiet. And then It was
regarded as a cinch that Chief Joyner
would be elected mayor.
The ordinance was Introduced by
Alderman Holland and Councilman
Chosewood, passed by council Juno 4,
and approved b> Mayor Woodward
June 7. - . .
Don't Cling to
The Old Methods
Advertising may effect a complete revo
lution in your present business methods—
but don’t hesitate to employ this mightiest
of modern business forces for that reason.
This is an age of changes—old methods
are inadequate for present and future
needs. Already the business that does not -
advertise is being pushed into the rut and
left by the wayside by those that do.
And don’t hesitate because you can’t af
ford to advertise as largely ns some other
concern. The biggest^advertisers of today
started with very modest appropriations.
Make a start with moderate space in this
newspaper—you can’t do better. And get
the Massengale Advertising Agency, of At

to your best advaiitage.

GONE FROM CRAVE
Rprelal til The Georgia*.
Chattanongn, Tenn., Sept. 28.—The
grand Jury has made some stsrttlng
discoveries, It Is slated, concerning tho
manner In which the county’s pauper
dead are burled. An Investigation was
made of the supposed grave of Mias
Grace Norman, the young woman of
Graysvllle, Ga.. and a slater-ln-law of
W. Von Davis, also of Graysvllle.’ Go.,
who has been Indicted on a serious
charge In connection with the girl’s
death. This Investigation revealed the
fact that the grave which was said to
have contained the body of the girl
contained the body of a dead n’-aio
baby. Above the grave waa plaint a
shingle which bore thl* Inscription:
“Wife of W. V. Davis, died Juno 80,
1906; burled July 1, 1906.” The grand
Jury Insists that they Investigated th*
grave whtrh was ssld to have contain
ed the remains of the girl, and unless
tho grand Jury is mistaken the body
Is not in the paupers' graveyard. ,,r
then the county sexton who buries pau
pers' remains Is mistaken about the
grave.
