because
of
the
many
large
educational
institu-
tionis
that
are
located
there.
Nashville
is
called
the
*
Athens
of
the
South,”
Here
are
hundreds
of
teachers
and
thousands
of
students
from
all
parts.
We
are
reaching
many
of
these.
They
learn
of
our
principles,
and
in
turn
carry
them
to
their
homes,
thus
spreading
the
truth
in
a
most
successful
manner.
Our
institution
1s
known
as
a
Seventh-day
Ad-
ventist
institution.
In
no
way
have
we
been
afraid
to
let
this
be
known.
I
could
speak
of
cares
that
have
accepted
the
Sabbath
and
other
points
through
ther
connection
with
the
Sanita-
rinm.
[
am
glad
to
tell
vou
who
are
the
members
of
our
Samtartmn
Board,
We
think
we
have
a
good
board.
especially
because
of
those
men
on
1t
who
have
had
such
long
experience
in
the
truth
and
are
prepared
to
give
good
counsel.

Brethren
I
A.
Ford
and
B.

Spire,
with
Dr.
Hayward
and
myself,
make
up
the
board
The
board
has
determined
that
it
will
not
erect
large
buildings,
create
big
debts,
or
move
any
faster
than
the
means
in
hand
will
allow,
believe
ing
that
if
we
make
a
plain
statement
of
the
situation
to
our
people.
and
they
see
that
we
are
dependent
upon
them,
they
will
come
to
our
help
I
could
spend
much
time
now
telling
vou
of
our
needs.
They
are
many.
The
General
Con-
ference
has
voted
us
means.
but
we
must
get
the
money
ourselves,
as
they
do
not
have
it
for
us.
We
are
now
trying
to
get
it.
Don’t
you
want
to
help?
Don't
you
want
a
part
in
that
work?
The
responsibility
of
this
work
1s
upon
all
our
people.
and
unless
they
do
their
part,
unless
you
do
vours,
the
work
will
suffer.
We
have
pledee
blanks
for
those
who
do
not
have
the
ready
meomev.
You
may
fill
them
ont
for
<uch
time
as
you
are
sure
vou
can
meet
them
And
may
the
Lord
bless
vou
in
doing
vour
part.
