WINDER. HARROW COUNTY. GA.. THURSDAY. SEPTEMBER 25. II
LITTLE RICHARD WAL
LACE IN A HOME BE
YOND THE SKIES
The Times mentioned the ser
ious illness of little Richard Wal
lace of Valdosta, in last weeks’
issue.
Rev. R. W. Wallace brought
him from Valdosta last Friday
night to the Piedmont Sanitarium
in Atlanta, hoping the specialists
of that city might reach his case
and restore him to health, hut
they could do nothing for him
and at 11 o’clock Saturday night
the soul of this bright little hoy
of (> years was welcomed to the
beautiful home already prepared
for him in the paradise of God.
This news brought sadness to
many hearts in Winder, where he
lived for more than a year until
the beginning of 1919.
lie was one of the brightest
hoys of his age we ever knew and
was the only child of Rev. and
Mrs. Wallace.
If sympathy can partially as
suage the grief and sorrow of
these devoted parents, they can
feel assured that they have it
from the citizens of Winder, all
of whom feel so deeply for
in their loneliness and with their
broken hearts.
The Times would long to say
something that would cheer and
comfort them, but in these days of
sadness and darkness through
which they are passing, there is
nothing that can be said to lesson
the sorrow of these grief stricken
parents. Our heart reaches out to
them in siueerest sympathy, and
may the Cod who has always sus
tained them be their strength and
comfort during the days that are
so dark and dreary.

SOUTHEASTERN CHRISTIAN
COLLEGE HAS LARGEST EN
ROLLMENT IN ITS HIS
TORY.
The Southeastern Christian
College of Auburn, Georgia, has
the largest enrollment in its his
tory, and bad to decline a number
I .
'of students for the lack of dormi
tory room to house them.
Auburn is ail ideal place for
this college, because the students
are free from all the temptations
that hinder their progress in large
town and cities. There are so
many things to make them spend
money, and the object of sending
young men and ladies to college
is to accomplish something worth
while and tit them for the stern
duties of life. Going to college is
not to have a good time and frolic
the years away while there.
There is no disputing the fact
tlmt the fewer the temptations
and the opportunities to spend
money and have a good time is
the place to send boys and girls
if you wish them to study and to
gain real knowledge.
We have no sympathy for pa
rents whose main consideration in
sending their hoys and girls off to
college is for the name, and feel
ing little interest in the moral wel
fare of tlieir children, or whether
they improve mentally.
And the boy or girl who goes
to college merely to frolic, have a
good time and spend all the mon
ey they can get out of their pa
rents. will accomplish little, and
would be far better off at home
and put to work.
Many hoys have been spoiled by
college life who would have made
good farmers and business men
with only a public school educa
tion.
