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. *1.50 IN ADVANCE MR. AND MRS. N. J. KEL LY BACK FROM N. C.
