Moody Bible Institute Declared
Unique Among Educational
Institutions
Rev. Richard F. Simpson, pastor
of Americus Presbyterian church,
has recently returned from attend
ing Moody Bible Institute, Chicago,
and at the request of the Times-
Recorder, today gave his impres
sions of that institution, which he
characterizes as “unique among
educational institutions.” Said Mr.
Simpson in speaking of the institute
with a newspaper man:
“Having recently returned from
a visit of 30 days to Moody Bible
Institute and having reliable infor
mation of other schools and col
leges, I can say that this is the
most remarkable school I know any
thing about. For organization, ef
ficiency and realizing its avowed
abjectives I should say it is unique.
“Approximately .$365,000 per
year are necessary to sustain the
school, yet not a penny is from an
endowment. A part is realized from
annuities but the most of it comse
from the annual free-will contribu
tions of its friends.
“The student body is made up of
over 800 men and women from
nearly every nation under the sun
and they are the happiest lot of
human beings one ever saw. And
there is reason, for the institute
provides everything possible for
their comfort from board at cost to
shoe polish and brushes for a
‘shine.’ Besides a spiritual atmos
phere deep and real pervades the
entire place.
“On the faculty are men of un
questioned scholarship and ability
to teach and among them are rep
resented almost every evangelical
denomination, all living together in
peace and harmony. During the
four wek of my sojourn there 1
did not detect the slightest ripple of
misunderstanding in that whole
some and charming atmosphere. I
am told that it is never otherwise.
Hud I been told beforehand that
it were possible I would have de
nied, yet one finds Baptists, Pres
byterians and other each loving his
own denomination with all his
heart. To my own mind it is an
answer to the Masetr’s prayer that
His people might be one.
“Located in that great city, Chi
cago, which is second in our land
from the standpoint of size and per
haps firpt from the standpoint of
iniquity,t Moody Institute is an in
evitable oasis of spirtiuality in the
midst of a world of wickedness.

that quickly,” he declared. “I
hope our bankers will get together
at once and tell the, farmer that
until he has poultry and cows and
hogs on his place, from which to
secure a steady weekly income,
that farmer can not borrow a cent.
“If our banks will do. this, and
we get behind them, I know that
there is a brighter day in the very

I farmer, who today is depressed with,
J debt.”
Mr. Grace, of Memphis, Tenn., a ‘
poultry expert and guest of Edgar
Ship, stated that Georgia consume - I
$20,000,000 worth of poultry and ■
eggs annually, of which only 5 per i
■ cent is produced in the tsate. This ’
statement he made in reply to
Whether or no there would be a
market for Sumter-raised poultry i
and eggs. As to the money to be
made in poultry raising he said that
he personally knew a man in Ten
nessee who had turned $5,000 in a
five years into a bank balance today
of cash amounting to more than
$2550,000 and another whose week
ly profit was $1,500. “Not every
one can do this,” he said, “but these
two men have accomplished that
success with poultry.”
Mr. Grace advised the Sumter i
| farmers to stick to one breed of .
■ chickens, because uniformity of

i in eggs and chickens, and this im
sures a higher price and quicker
I easier sales.

declared.
T. O. Marshall said that a com
mittee from the poultry associa
tion and the Kiwanis club would
assist beginners in securing thor
oughbred stock and in solving the
problems that arise from poultry
raising; He, too, advised sti ik
ing to pure-bred stock.
George Marshall spoke of
marketing and of poultry raising,
! saying that it could be handled just
I as Sumter sells her hogs—in car
load lots by community sales. He
said that every farm should have
a flock of standard-bred fqwls, that
such stock brings higher prices and
is more fasily sold. “In fact, they
