COLLEGE NEEDS ARE

Million Dollars Could Be

College Alone. Universi

Soule Outlines Needs of
College. Says Something
Must Be Done to Help
Producer.
By JOHN E. DREWRV
The needs of the Georgia State
College of Agriculture were never
more pressing or urgent than at
this time because more demands
are being made upon that insti
tution than at any time in Its pre
vious history, states Dr. Andrew
M. Soule, president of the cuil»g*\
declaring that the Agricultural sit
uation In this country Is such ns
to cause alarm In the minds of all
far-seeihg* individuals.
In endeavoring to show the needs
of the college of agriculture, Dr.
KyuIA said: "It is again worth while
to emphasize the fact that Florida,
North Carolina, Kentucky. Tenn
essee and Alabama, our neighborin';
and contingent states, are s.tm-Jlug
infinitely moro on their colleges
of agriculture than is apportioned
In Georgia. A rebent inaopctlon* o'
North Carolina Agricult urai
and Mechanical College showed me
that it has already spent several 1
hundred thousand dollars for a new
building program and that $1,300,-
000 more had been provided by .he
legislature for this purpose to be
expended within the next six years.
Astonishing as it may seem, wc
have a larger and more representa
tlve body of students pursuing
work in our college of agriculture
and the work associated therewith

substantial Increase in our support
fund but we need an enlargement
of the resources at our command for
research. Provision should b«
made Immediately for the Institu
tion of u building program on the
basis as outlined:
“Enlargement »of womans’ build
ing. 9100,000; Installation for fire
protection, $26,000; purchase ot

completion of veterinary building
and hospital $100,000; removal and

largement of woman's building
$100,000; research nboratorles $100,-
000; completion and equipment of
engineering building, $50,000. or a
total of one million dollars." -
With reference to the ngrlcultu-
| ral situation which he said Is the .
jcause of ularm to nil fur-seeing In- I
I divlduuls. Dr. Soule says: I
I “Something must be done to lm-
1 prove the status of the producer.
Something must be done to Increase
interest in open Country. Unless
some savant can shortly find a way
•of manufacturing human food out
of the air. we are likely to go
short on rutlons. But that is not
all. There is a great danger that
our supply of raw materials will be
totally Inadequate to meet our
needs at an early date. The people
of Georgia cannot complacently sit
by and se this situation develop
/and proceed unhampered. Accord
lng to the conclusions of our econo
mists. the remedy can best be ap-
* plied through the medium of agri
cultural education."
Dr. Soule expressed the hope that
the approaching session of the
Georgia legislature to be held in
fJune would be able to provide fund:
greatly needed by both the State
(Cbllcgp of Agriculture and the
University of Georgia proper.

Church Poorest
Employer Says
Dr. C. L. Goodell
Lawrie, As Singer, and
Dr. Goodell Attract
Large Crowds At First
Methodist Revival.
In his sermon last Friday even
ing at the Fint Methodist Church
Dr. Chns. L. Goodell made the state
meet that the Churcn of God was
the poorest of employers, that
strM-i-sweepers in New York city
got consderably more for their work
than the averago minister got for
the nveruge salary among minis
ters of the gospel was but $900.00 a
year. Be it said tho' to their e
lasting glory that through all the
great labor disputes of the country
the ministers have not struck.
His subject was “Laymen of the
Church” "Ministers come and min
isters go but the Laymen stay for
ever. The saying used to be ‘like
priest, like people but it Is the other
way around in this day and age of
education and indivunlism. now it
Is ‘as tho church so her minister.*
The church of christ began by lay
men and has been carried on ever
since by inyrpon.
"Now If you lnymen do not like
the preacher you have engaged and
want to help him make good on his
Job then I suggest that you try this
recipe begin to pray for him. tell
him that you are,praying for him
let him feel that you are behind him
in this manner and when he faces
you on Sunday morning let him sev
in your very faces that you have
come from prayer and that you are
expecting to hear, not a man’s
message but a message from God.”
“In Korea you are not allowed
to enter the church there on the
'Babbath uless you bring an un
converted person with you. And
you ian not become a menlber of
the church there until you have
won at least one person to Christ.
There is far mqre responsibility
resting upon you laymen . for the
success of the church than for the
ministers. Tho minister preaches
to you on Sunday and you should
take up the sermon where he left
off and preach it all through the
week by your living, by a word now |
and then to the men you work with I
and by consltent Christian living!
