NOW, OUR CHRISTMAS PRESENT FOR “THE TECH.”
\\V cannot iiml a better time thnn this to stress once more
the needs of the Technological School, and the urgent appeal
which that great institution makes to our Atlanta. f
The Technological School need* more land. It has reached the
limit of expansion, and it must either stand still or go forward
from this time.
Neither Atlanta nor Georgia can afford to have it Htand still.
We people in Atlanta scarcely realize the meaning of this
Huperh institution to our municipal life or the prestige which
it confers upon oitp entire educational system in the South. We
do hot know that the Technological is now by common consent
one of the ranking technological schools of the entire country. Re
cently four presidents of the leading universities of the country
united in declaring Georgia’s great school of technology to be the
leading technological school of the .South and one of the ranking
schools of the entire country.
Its repute and fame has literally spread through the world.
In its present correspondence there are five applications for admis
sion from thp Philippine Islands, one from India, and a large num
ber from the Northern and Northwestern states.
The Technological School iy is an houor to Georgia, and should
'he the favorite child among Atlanta’s institutions.
It is worthy of all it nsks, and has upon our municipal gov
ernment the same claim that a brilliant and noble son would have
upon the resources of a wealthy and broad-mindpd parent.
Atlanta literally cannot afford to let the Technological School
stand still for want of the little IbihI it needs to enlarge its cam
pus and to erect additional buildings.
Why, we do not realize, speaking simply from a material
standpoint and outside of its superb mental benefits, what tlijs
great institution means to us.
Do the merchants and business men of the city understand
that the Technological School spends every'year one hundred thou
sand good round dollars among the business institutions and
hoarding houses of Atlanta?
Do they realize that this great institution gives annually 125
Atlanta boys the best technological education in the world at no
higher cost than a street car ticket to and from the school?
Do they realize that by actual statistics a very large number
of the annua! graduates of the Technological School locate in this
city, and add to ils scientific and instructive and constructive
life, the splendid reinforcement of these magnificent and admira
bly equipped yojing men—for the up-building of Georgia and its
capital?
Do they realize that nearly one-half of the last year’s gradu-
atiug class have settled in Atlanta, and that many of those who
go out for a time into other localities drift back to the
betterment of this capital city with their brains and energies?
The merchants of ^tlnnta are prospering gloriously just
now. and the volume of their business in this period of great ex
pansion and financial fulness is enough to satisfy, but if the time
comes when conditions are depressed and money less plentiful,
they should realize that the Tcehnologicai School both in udverai-
tv and in prosperity, as a permanent customer, will continue to
put those one hundred thousand dollars every year into circula
tion in the city.
What the Technological School asks of Atlanta is a mere
pittance ns compared with its great value to the city, or with
the munificence with which the state has already given. Within
these 18 years, the state has given <1700,000 to the school, and
the city within these 18 years has given only about <100,000.
And this in view of the fact that one-fourth of the techno
logical rolls are made up of Atlanta boys.
The state lias just now cheerfully given <17,500 to the Tech’s
immediate necessities, and the Tech only needs at this time the
mere pittance of <4,000 which its friends are asking from this great,
rich and magnificently prosperons city of Atlanta.
We cannot bring ourselves to believe that Atlanta will refuse,
to give promptly and gladly what it* greatest institution need*.
The people of this city ought to begin to realize what thin great
college means to it, and they ought to learn to love it, to take
a personal and fervent pride in its merits and in its splendid use
fulness, anil they ought to he ready at all times to respond to its
plainly mnuifest necessities with a heartiness and liberality
worthy of this incomparable Atlanta and of these great and pros
perous times.
Any great educational institution is in, its filial anulysis
dependent in large part upon the city in which it is located. We
can recall the efforts that Atlanta made to secure the location of
this institution here. We can remember how eagerly we desired
it. how highly we estimated it at that time, and how much of help
the plutocrat. The great Masonic order of the Templar ICnlghti cele
brated In stately and ploua ceremonial their allegiance to. the grand com
mander and bent their reverent knees In manly homage to the Supreme
' Grand Matter of the Universe.
It was a Christman day of rich prosperity—never in the memory .of
the oldest celebrant had there been suchthlness In the avenues of trade
or In the rerenues of the Individual as on Tuesday. The *kles seemed to
open In such a shower of gold as fell at Danae’s feet, and the golden
stream ran from the flooded counters through the friendly streets, and from
the carpeted aisles of the synagogue Into the homes of the poor. - There
was no Joy of gifts that was not tasted somewhere on Tuesday and there
was no known case of suffering In all this goodly city and Its suburbs that
went unrelieved.
It was a Christmas of beautiful order and decorum. No'stream of
turbulent noises ran hideous through our lighted streets and darkened
alleys; no drunken figures reeled along our happy thoroughfares, and no
thought of strife or lawlessness disturbed the amiable atmosphere of the
holy and the happy daf.
With the keen brace of the cold tempered under sunlit skies, with
warmth In our halls and comfort In our bomca. with happiness and con
tentment throbbing like a psalm through every heart, it was indeed a
holiday to remember to the end of time.
May the Prince of Peace sand to our dear Atlanta a thousand Christ
mas days like this!
I LOOK TO SCIENCE
By ELLA WHEELER WILCOX.
(Copyright, 1806. by American-Journal-Examlner.)
I look to Science for the cure of crime:
To patient righting of a thousand wrongs,
To Anal healing of a thousand Ills.
Blind runner now, and cruel egotist.
It yet leads'on to more than mortal sight.
And the large knowledge that means humbleness
And tender love for all created tjilngs.
I look to Science for the Coming Rare,
Growing from seed selected and from soil
Love fertilized and pruned by Wisdom’s hand,
Till out of mortal men. spring deml-godo,
Strong, primal creatures, with awakened souls
And normal passions, governed by the will,
leaving a trail of glory where they tread.
I look to Science for the growth of faith.
That bold Denier of accepted creeds—
That mighty Doubter of Immortal truths
Shall yet reveal God's secrets to the world
And prove the facts It seeks to overthrow,
And a new name shall Science henceforth wear—
The great religion of the Universe.

If the technological school were located in any Northern city
it would have been crowned and enriched by donations and en
dowments that would have amply and superbly answered nil its
needs. Only recently the city of New York gave voluntarily
three aud a half million dollars to Columbia university for build
ing purpose* alone. The city of St. Louis has recently enriched
Washington university by splendid gifts of money and laud, and
we ail know how royally every year adds to the princely reve
nue* and endowment* of the University of Chicago from that
great city aud from great individual citizens who hold it as
Chicago’s greatest ornament and it* most useful institution.
Come then, let us with one accord crown this beautiful aud
generous Christmas season with this net of noble public spirit.
We have provided immediately on Tuesday for the joy and
happiuess of the individual members of our individual families.
Now let us come up in a large, cordial and royal answer to
the appeul of this brilliant and beloved child of the municipal
ity. Let us equip her for larger service, and let us reward her for
Kplendid usefulness in the past so prolific of noble sons.
And what we do, let us do quickly so that the gift may have
the double value of sufficiency aud of splendid heartiness.
There needs only now some <4.000 to be raised for the
Technological School. Let us do this before Christmas week
creeps to its Saturday evening close, aud let the Tech front the
New Year not only with the money which it absolutely needs for
this vital growth, but with the quickening and inspiring demon
stration of Atlanta’s contiiftied love anil pride and confidence.

To the Editor of The Georgian:
Referring to the tow price of beer
license In Atlanta, calls to my mind a
scene In the largest city fo Texas twen
ty years ago. A man sent me a draft
on a groceryman, whose place of bust
ness was In the suburbs of the city,
called on him about 11:10 a. m. HI:
clerk told me that the "boss had gone
to dinner.” but he would be back In
IS nr 20 minutes, and asked me to take
il seat. I glanced over his stock and
thought lie had about one thousand
dollars on hand. I .took a seat on she
front Veranda.
Across the street was a little beer
saloon, with 12 or IS kegs that were
empty, piled up on the outside. My
conclusion was that the beer saloon
would l>e starved out ami closed In
two months. In about twenty minutes
the boss cante back and mid the draft.
In that time the beer man had made
’ nineteen sales of beer, mostly In one-
half gallon pitchers, to women or chil
dren. A wagon had called and left
seventeen kegs of tieer amt had taken
away the empty ones, and the grocery-
man had sold n pint of molasses to a
negro on a credit, out of his thousand-
