It will be of interest to Tub Times-
Recokuek'h thousands of Baptist read
ers throughout the country to know that
Cordele will, In 1692, be the center of
education for the Baptists of south Geor
gia.
From a Cordele gentleman who was in
the city yesterday it was learned that
the Freddie Shipp Female College will
soon be a grand reality; and Its comple
tion promises great things for the girls
iu this whole section.
Several months ago thirteen Baptist
associations, comprising a territory of
aoveral hundred miles lo all directions
in south Georgia, met and came to the
conclusion that the people of this part
of the state needed an institution, for
the higher education of the girls
They decided to act at once, so a com
mittee was appointed to select s loca
tion for such an Inalllutioii. Tlioy re
ceived bids from many or the towns in
south Georgia and by a donation of *12,-
000 and an endowment . ftipd of *3,000
together with a free site Cordele secured
the college.
Notes havo been signed by the sub
scribers making twen'y per cent, of the
amount payable July 1 and Ilf teen per
cent muntbly thereafter. So that work
on the buildings will begin nt once.
7 he plans are being prepared now,
and It is safe to say that no college
buildings in the state will be more con
veuient or better adapted for the work
for which they are Intended;
An interview with one of. the pro
moters of the Institution brought out
some interesting facts. “Its territory,”
he said, “extends from the Georgia
coast on the east to the gnlf, and as the
thirteen Baptist associations have a con
stituency of 10,000 the college Wilt be
tilled to overflowing with students.
“It will be conservative in Its manage
ment. Although'it will be under the
control of Baptists, sectarian tenets will
have nothing to do with Ic.
“Besides the college firoper, fqr. the
purpose of educating our girls jo all tho
branches common to onr best, female
college, there will be a primary depart
ment for the education of both sexes as
in the best high schools.
■We intend to keep op with the times.
We want first-class Instructors lo all de
partments and just as soon as possible
we wltl furnish the college with overy
needed aparatus.”
“Much preliminary work,such as sccnr-
ing titles to property, a charter {
college and designator tbo building.,
will delay tho work some, so that tho
Institution may not be able to open its
doors for a year, but when the doom are
opened—
“Well, the Baptist! of south Georgia
will have a college to bo proud of.”
Cordele has served well her own in
terests in securing this college end the
people of Americas can serve theirs by
establishing a first-class female eemlnary
here.
Cordele has set an example In tbie
matter that it worthy'of imitation.
There la no ration In the world *hy
Araerlcui girls should go oft to aooufe a
college education. Theio ia every in
ducement here—except the college—to
attraot girls from other placet to Ameri-
cus to have the finishing touches added
to their education.
Suppose some effort is made to secure
a non sectarian female seminary, the
equal of any in the country, here. It
can be done if some one will take the
.lead in the matter.
