VOICES OF YOUTH
Conducted by the Editor
JOEL CHANDLER HARRIS.
By Frank L. Stanton.
I.
Summer is in the world, sweet-singing,
And blossoms breathe in every clod;
The lowly vales with music ringing,
High answered from the hills of
God.
11.
Y T et hills, to dream-deep vales reply
ing,
Sing not as if one flower could die.
He would not have the summer sighing
Who never gave the world a .sigh!
111.
Who heard the world's heart beat, and
listened
Where God spake in a drop of dew,
And if his eyes with tear-drops glis
tened
The world he loved so never knew.
IV.
Its grief was his —each shadow falling,
That on a blossom left its blight;
But when he heard the darkness call
ing
He knew that darkness dreamed of
light.
V.
And that God's love each life inspires—
Love in the humblest breast im
pearled;
He macle the lowly cabin-fires
Light the far windows of the world!
VI.
He dreamed the dreams of childhood,
giving
Joy to it to the wide world’s end;
For in the man the child was living,
And little children called him friend.
* * •<: *
X.
Wherever song is loved, and story
Cheers the w’orld’s firesides, there
he dwells—
A guest regardless of earth’s glory,
To whom time waves no sad fare
wells.
XI.
From life to life he passed; God’s
pages
Shine with his name, immortal
bright;
One with the starred and echoing
ages,
A brother to eternal light.
—The Atlanta Constitution.
CHAT.
So far we have not received “Per
sistence’s” picture, hence I will have
to deprive you of the pleasure of see
ing his countenance this week. Guess
it will be in by the next issue, unless
Persistence belongs to the bashful
boys.
The prize I am sending you, Per
sistence, is a copy of Alexander H.
Stephens, by Louis Pendleton. It is
one of the American Crisis Biographies
and has been said by many com
petent to express a valuable opinion
to be among the very best and finest
estimates ever written of the life and
work of this great Georgian. I hope
it will prove an inspiration to the
owner.
There are two interesting letters
this week that are splendid types of
the kind of letters that I would be
glad to have all the time; hope each
member will realize that we will all
appreciate and enjoy such accounts of
their little experiences.
I may have some important news
for you next week.
BROTHER WILLIE.
The Golden Age for August 20, 1908.
A NEW MEMBER.
Dear Brother Willie: Having en
joyed your Voices of Youth depart
ment very much, I have decided to tell
you of a little outing I had last week
while on a visit to some very dear
friends in Montgomery county. The
event was a moonlight picnic and
there were some fifteen or twenty in
the party; our conveyances being a
two-horse wagon, a one-horse wagon
and several buggies, the two-horse
wagon leading the procession.
I think there was never a more
congenial party than that, or a pret
tier moon than the one that lighted
our way through the little town on
over the pretty white beds of sand
down to the riverside, casting long,
ghost-like shadows of those tall, grace
ful pines across our pathway; a de
lightful breeze waving them back and
forth with life-like motion.
And as only young people can, we
were reveling in the full joys of such
a trip, drinking in all those beauties
that only the God of nature has or can
paint. Suddenly there came a sound
of alarm, and before we could realize
its cause, one of the big iron tires
rolled off the wheel of our wagon
(the two-horse one) and immediately
we came pell-mell out on to that
sand that only those who are familiar
wit.- south Georgia sand beds can ap
preciate. As luck would have it, we
were only a short distance from our
destination, hence it only added to
the fun to make the rest of the way
on foot.
The boys of the crowd turned black
smith enough to replace the unruly
tire and soak both wheel and tire
in the waters of the Ocmulgee. The
fiat for the ferry reaching some dis
tance out into the river, we got an
unusually pretty view of the harvest
moon shedding its soft rays over the
placid bosom of the river and its beau
tiful banks.
Then came a delightful supper, fol
lowed by some very fine recitations by
one of the party and the old-time
plantation songs by the whole crowd.
And now it was time to think of
home again. It was very little
trouble for a part of the crowd to
start but not so with our fated wagon
since one of our team, “Old Pet” by
name, raised serious objections, hav
ing once been able to slip her bridle
off, to having it put on again. After
a futile chase through the swamp she
cleared the fence at one leap and
made a dive for home, shirking her
part of the load. Then came the ques
tion, how were we to get home? After
much talking and planning it was
decided to rob the one-horse wagon
of its mule and put it with ours,
hitching the one-horse wagon se
curely to ours. We had quite a jolly
ride home, finding “Pet” waiting in
dependently for us.
Your new friend,

AN INTERESTING LETTER.
My Dear Brother Willie: I want
to tell you and the readers of your
paper about a place I visited in April.
It has more natural beauty than any
place I ever saw. It is an estate
owned by a very interesting family.
They built the house themselves, the
men of the family, with only a very
little help. The house is three-storied
and they are fixing a porch on the
roof, where tea can be served in the
afternoon. It is large and square and
WHICH SCHOOL?
It is a question of the young man.
Will you send him away to school this
fall? If so, where? A great deal is
involved in the answer to this ques
tion. At least it means a great deal
for the young man. A mistake in the
selection of a school for your boy may
be a fatal mistake. There are many
excellent schools. But, alas! None of
them are ideal; none of them are per
fect. But I would not send my boy
to any school that is not trying to em
body in its courses of study and in
its management the highest and best
ideals of education.
First of all the school must take
every boy as he is and minister to his
individual needs. God Almighty has
never yet made any two boys alike.
The boy’s mind is not an apartment
house to stuff things into. It is not a
tablet on which to write things. It
is a thing that grows. To grow it
must be fed with food convenient for
it. But every boy does his own grow
ing. Nobody can make him grow.
The wise agriculturalist does not at
tempt to make plants grow. What he
does is to supply food in such sol
uble and palatable form as the plant
will take it in and do its own grow
ing. The law of life and growth for
the plant is the same as the law of
life and growth for the boy. The only
philosophy of education that is worth
while is a philosophy that recognizes
the laws of growth and ministers to
a growing young life.
The State University has a branch
college at Dahlonega that is trying to
develop and apply this philosophy of
education. We feed the bodies, minds,
and spirits of our boys on the most
nutritious and palatable foods we
can find and the boys do the growing.
The location is in the mountains,
where the air and water are pure and
free and not loaded with poisonous
microbes that, rise from sewers and
cesspools. The inspiring breath of
the everlasting hills always has ap
pealed and always will appeal to what
is big and true in the life of a boy.
The courses of study are planned to
train and develop power for the life
that now is. In addition to the A. B.
and B. S. courses, we have courses in
agriculture, business, mining and elec
trical engineering. The discipline of
the school is military. Every boy who
comes here is brought under the help
ful restraints of rightful authority. He
is taught from the beginning obedience
and respect for law. He is at all
times under the supervision of officers
who know where he is every hour of
the day. We place our boys in our
own dormitories. The rich boy and
the poor boy wears the uniform that
costs one price for all. Every boy
must work hard and be a gentleman
and then he shares the common pro
tection of a democratic government
supported by military authority.
If this is the type of school you
want for your boy, send him to Dah
lonega. The president will care for
him and love him and protect him as
his own boy.
