Are Married Women Best Teachers
The theory of the president of Tufts
college that all women teachers in
girl's colleges should be married runs
counter to accept traditions of female
education, which in this country at
least is mainly in the hands of
married women. The discrimination
where any has existed, has been
against married teachers. The small
proportion of the latter is shown by
the census of 1910, which gave the
number of women teach-
and college as
against married and
widows.
The greater number of these, of
course, were teachers in the lower
grades, whose influence. Dr. Hamilton

The days of pioneering on the farm
are well nigh past. Now that the rough
edges are off the true
of life in the open Is beginning to be
appreciated. At first people crowded
together in the elites for protection,
later for convenience In transacting
business. The city never was Intend-
ed primarily as a place to live. In the
early days the cities were deserted as
soon as the danger which had forced
the people together was over. They
scattered out to their farms, where
they could live in peace and plenty.
When the development of the city
as a business center began no
provision was made for the home
life. People lived where they could,
existing for their business rather than
making their business exist for them.

fewer hours, to live almost in the
country. With a glimpse of suburban
and country life and what It really
meant to have plenty of room to
breathe, the city dweller began to
an ambition. He began to long for
an acre of his own. with a garden and
a few berries and some chickens,
where he could rest and grow old.
The advance in the price of food
products made it not only possible,
but comparatively easy, for the man
who has given the best years of his
life to the city to retire to the
try. Perhaps I should not use the
word retire. The swirling rush of
twentieth century life made the
thought of retiring distasteful. The
ambitious man lets go bis work with
reluctance. He would rather die in
the harness than to rust away bis re--
days in idleness. Rut there
comes a time when the strongest man
feels his grip weaken and bis mind
falter. The hard knocks of n
life begin to make themselves
felt The long hours grow weary on
bis shoulders. Some men are situated
so fortunately that they can let go by
degrees, working as they feel like It
and turning over to others the tasks
cf which they tire. Most men. how-
ever, must continue to meet the exact-
demands of business to the far-
notch or drop out entirely. It la
to them that the country makes Its
strongest appeal.
A house and an acre or more of land
can be purchased or rented more
cheaply than a and lot in the
city. The home can lie supplied with
all the conveniences that the family
were used to in the city. The trolley
and the telephone keep them In touch
with their city friends. The city man
who is past the days of the hard work
demanded in a mercantile establish-
or a factory can still make a fair
living the soil. The returns from
an even acre or so of ground will go
far toward paying the family's living
expenses. .
The of life In the open,
where the air Is pure and there Is
time to dream and room to be happy,
will add years to the lives of the
new made farmer and bis wife. The
freedom from responsibility calls back
the light hearted of youth. The
tyranny of office hours is done away
with The luxury of Independence is
attained.
No sign of the return to the country
is more encouraging than the tendency
of the old farmers and their wives to
spend the remainder of their days In
the country. Some of the old farmers
who move to to end their days
satisfied perhaps, but most of
them are not. The enforced Idleness

of n city lot stifle them They miss
their old friends and associates.
The home farm is a better

reasons. It s home to him. and a

The Slavery of Taxation.
Who gets the of
tariff which taxes the masses on
an average of nearly per cent, on
practically everything they purchase,
some of the schedules call-
for a tax as high as per cent.
Why, those who are authorized by the
tariff law to fix the prices for nearly
everything we eat and wear, thus
placing the people at the mercy of
trusts and combines, get the benefits.
They subscribe enormous amounts of
money to keep in power the party
which levies that tariff so they can
exploit the people.
Is it possible that the majority of
the people will vote to continue
Republican party In power so it can
perpetuate the infamous t stem
which burdens the average man and
moderate earner for the benefit of
the classes which keep the masses
working for them There is no more
than one kind of slavery, but the sys-
which puts a tax on what labor
industry and enterprise produces, and
which puts a tax on consumers, all
for the benefit of one class of the
people, is a system of slavery that
seems to be voluntarily Imposed by
voters who are supposed to be
gent. If the voters could not help
themselves it would be quite a differ-
thing, but they can go to the polls
and obtain freedom for themselves
by casting their ballots for Democrat-
representatives in congress.
It is true that some of the multi-
millionaire beneficiaries have secured
seats in the senate and house by
chase, bribery and corruption, but
there ought to be enough of the spirit
of Independence and civic intelligence
left in the people to enable them to
elect enough congressmen to outvote
the special Interests which dominate
congress under Republicanism. If
the people actually intend and desire
to pay any kind of taxes for the
fit of the favorite interest they
should at least send their own
to congress so they
pass their own tariff law. Certain
they should not be content to leave
It to such multi-millionaire
as Senator Aldrich and others
who represent plutocracy and not the
people.
We often wonder if a voter has a

seems irrational to talk about making,

sum of money that Will

equation so that we will produce the
least quantity of cotton for the best
sum. As a matter of fact the South
has never been a one crop country. It
has sometimes overdone the cotton
business, but it has always been a big
producer In other fields.
In regard to the staple crops, the
South is by the rest of the country,

Grown-up and Children.
See a man who stops to pat some
little child on the head, whose heart
is touched when the tears stream
down the little one's face, and you be-
a whose thoughts are ten-
whose heart throbs for
who loves his fellowman. In the
hurry and hustle of the day there are,
of course, tender hearted men
cannot stop to heed the little people
of this life, but upon the one who
does notice the child can be placed
that stamp of approval. Its a safe bet
that such a man is frank and honest.
Alas, too little attention is paid to
children of this life. Of course, not
always parents, though there are
many such who race or whirl through
life to the detriment of childhood-
innocent, defenseless childhood. There
is sometimes the mother who cares so
much for the gay way that she be-
comes fretful of her child; there are
others, fathers and mothers, who
pear naturally indifferent, and then
the drunken father. Children raised
in the atmosphere of either seldom
win success Wealth may supply
cation and there may be ability for
education to be reared upon, but the
warm glow In the heart is lacking.
The same applies largely to the
parents, the drunken
father not only sets his child a bad
example, but he makes the battle of
life harder and casts gloom into
heart, which acts as a handicap
through Ufa.
Sons of the drunken father
I times succeed, due to the tender, con-
urging, the beautiful teachings
of a mother, and they deserve credit,
but the chance to reach success this
way is slim. On the other hand, what
a strong incentive, what a firm rock
have the children to stand upon whoso
parents are attentive and who take an
Interest In them. This applies to tho
poorest as well as to the richest.
Many of the greatest men of the
try came from the ranks of the poor
est, but the back of them had a
mother, who lightened their bur-
dens and urged them on with tender
words and with warm kisses from
withered lips, perhaps.
The problem of how to raise
is large and deep, and, of course,
no parents want to be told how they
should bring up their own. Still there
are some things that can be said that
will take root in the mind, if the mind
is a fair one, that will touch the heart

Th Mechanical Ara
In a Whirlpool.
Any one make the exact counter-
part of a cyclone if he so desires. Of
course a cyclone is caused by the air
over a big area getting warm and
light with small pressure. This air
consequently tries to rise almost In a
body leaves a partial vacuum be
hind, but the outside cold air rushes
In from all sides. Now. It is a
and mechanical truth that when a
fluid runs in from all sides toward a
central point it causes a whirlpool or
rotation of the fluid. The exact anal-
of a cyclone, then, although with
the fluid water Instead of air, is seen
when the stopper Is pulled out of the
bottom of a basin full of water. An
almost perfect vacuum, as far as the
water Is concerned, is caused by the
water Immediately over the stopper
running out The rest of the water
rushes in from nil directions, and a
whirlpool Is the result There is one
difference here from the air cyclone.
In the air the force with which It
rushes toward the center greatly com-
presses the air whirling at that point
and makes it very dense. In
fact, that a straw carried in the
whirl can be driven Into a big
block of wood without bending. Of
course In a whirlpool the water is not
compressed, remaining practically the
same In density all the time. That
la one highly Important property of
water; it is practically incompressible.
Nevertheless it is very Interesting to
see the whirl form In a basin and
know that the mechanical laws are
the same as In the formation of a

There is no doubt that the
of rotation is wise and

In the place, a very sharp dis-

important that a distinction

Dr. S. C. Mitchell, of the

well to have rotation, but when a real-
able man has been found for the
management of the schools, the roads,

development, there is no more
son for making frequent changes than
there is for changing the professors

REV. I. H. STRONG
MON SUNDAY SIGHT.
Says Officers Do Not Enforce
Laws and Church Members
Responsible.
The sermon Sunday night by Rev.
J. H. Shore, in Jarvis Memorial
church, from the subject,
Man was one of the strong-
est that the people of have
ever heard. Mr. Shore said that God
was looking for a man to stand in
the gap that was being made by
and a few low down white
men in and unless a man
could be found the conditions in
would be even worse than
they are now. That the voters of
Greenville elected men as aldermen
who were in sympathy with the pro-
law, so would not try to
enforce it. The responsibility was
placed UPON the church members,
who did not live up to their
that they could elect the right
kind of men if they desired to do so.
That the progress of the world was
marked with stones made by
men whom God had found who
would stand in the gap made by Bin.
can the prohibition laws be
enforced in any town, whose mayor,
aldermen and policemen are on the
side of whiskey, and do not
themselves to stop the sale- of was
one of the clinching questions the
minister asked. He said that on Sat-
night he was run against by
a man who was so drunk that he
should not have been allowed on the
streets, that drunken man was
not taken In charge by an officer. He
said that he had also been reliably
informed that on a recent Saturday
night in Greenville, young
men came out of a place where near-
beer is Bold, and they were drunk
that they could not go home. You
find the same of men hanging
around the near-beer places who were
formerly seen around the bar rooms
Mr. Shore also referred to numerous
social evils existing in Greenville,
said the responsibility for these rest-
ed upon the homes. Parents
have little knowledge of their
and the company they keep, and
that they failed to instruct their
children in the teachings of the Scrip
tores. He expressed the opinion that
there wore very few family altars in
Greenville. Parents are
for this, and God will hold them ac-
countable for it.
A largo congregation heard this

MEN'S LIVES NARROWER.
E. C. T. T. S. NOTES
Concentration Prevents the Fullest
Enjoyment
Sometimes I think men have very
much less capacity for large living
than women, says J. Ridgway,
In the for November. Men
concentrate better, perhaps, but the
effect is not all
Men live one at a time. In early
manhood they live in the
life of dreams, visions, hopes,
In middle age they live in the
present. Concentrating on their life
work. Making a record. Cashing In
only dreams. Little time for
In old age they live mostly in
the past. Timid, in their waning
power, they essay no mighty deeds,
but dream over the dreams and fight
over the fights of their splendid days.
Is it not so
How different from a woman's life
or it seems to me. If I have ob-.
served truly, women live their lives
from young womanhood to the
finis. Every day is all-round,
complete and lived to the limit. No
day passes without its troll the
past,
So sad, so sweet,
The days that are no more.
No day passes without Its dreams for
other days to be And each passing
day, however, active in the tasks of
every every hour of every
passing a woman's life it
seems to m-, the heart life, the life of
sentiment, keeps step with the mind
life and the body life.
What a pity men cannot live this
threefold life What a pity for the
men But especially, what a pity for
the women How often must women
be hurt by the apparent hardness or
indifference or forgetful mates
Many times I have seen the pain in
the eyes of uncared-for women in the
presence of the rare and rarely-cared-
for women. And how a man robs
himself when he no longer shows how
much he really cares For men do
care. No man barter his wife
for honor and riches is compelled to
choose. He believes he can have her
and them. He believes she will en-
joy them too. He feels that she is
part of him, that they are one. Of
course they are not if he is going to
take it for granted.

First Anniversary New
W. C. A. Organized
On the morning of October 5th, the
first anniversary of the opening of
the school, appropriate exercises were
held in the assembly hall. Prof. W.
H. who was influential in
establishing the school, spoke on
Growth of Education in Eastern North
comparing the schools of
Pitt county of ten years ago, with
those of today. The of East
Carolina Training
ex-Gov. T. J. Jarvis, gave a history
of the establishment of the school.
In little more than two years
the ground was broken, six buildings
had been erected and a years
work completed.
Miss May until recently one
of the supervisors of public school
music in the Baltimore schools, has
accepted the position of director of
public school music. She has studied
for several years in Peabody con-
Miss Dabney has arrived to
take charge of primary methods. She
is a graduate of Columbia University
and has had experience in teaching
in both rural and city schools She
comes to us from Petersburg, Va.
Miss Elizabeth Pugh, takes Mrs.
Ogden's place as teacher of house-
hold economics. Miss Pugh is a
graduate of Stout Institute,
Wis., a training school for do-
science and manual training
of teachers. She has been teaching
in the Louisiana Industrial school, at
La.
We sincerely regret to lose Mrs.
Ogden. Her work has been of a high
order. She will return to her home
in Delaware.
The Y. W. C. A opened with bright
prospects. Many of the old members
are back and are bending every effort
to get every new student to join the
association. On evening of Oct.
3rd, an impressive installation
vice was held. Forty-five new
were installed. Excellent talks
were made by President Wright and
Mrs. The Y. W. C. A. is

Ben Gray Shot While to Stop
a Fight.
On the evening of October 10th, on
the J. A. James farm, in Bethel town-
ship, Bullock killed Ben
Gray. Bullock and Cornelius Best
had some trouble, Gray trying
o keep them from fighting. It seem-
ed that the fuss was about Mr.
and Best renewed the fuss when
Gray tried to stop it again and in the
attempt by Best to strike Bullock.
Bullock drew his pistol and after
snapping several times it fired, the
ball hitting Gray in the back. He
lived about ten minutes. Bullock

against Messrs. J. G. White Com-
big railroad contractors, to re-
cover alleged to be due
Messrs. Good, Hart Co.,
ors.
It will be remembered Messrs
Good, Hart were the first
sub-contractors and threw the first
dirt here on the new road. They
brought a lot of Italians with them,
but these soon tired of the Job and re-
turned north. Their part of the con-
tract was completed with labor ob-
in this locality.
The road wont in the hands of a.
receiver, and Messrs. J. G. White
Company at that time alleged they
could not pay their sub-contractors
because they had been unable to col-
from the road by virtue of the re-
and its inability to pay.
Whether Messrs. J. G. White Com-
ever received the entire amount
of their claim against the Norfolk
Southern, we are unable to say, but
Good, Hart Company claim they
did not settle with them and are there-
fore to recover.
Mr. L. R. of Kinston, is the
referee, and the plaintiff is represent-

defendants by Messrs Lucas Spruill.

KEEP THE KIDNEYS WELL.
Health Is Worth Saving, and Some
People Know How
to Save It.
Many people take their
lives in their hands by neglecting the
kidneys when they know or-
need help. Sick are re-
for a vast amount of suffer-
and ill health, but there Is no
need to suffer nor to remain in
when all diseases and aches and
pains due to weak kidneys can be
quickly and permanently cured by the
use of Kidney Pills. The fol-
lowing statement leaves no ground
for doubt.
Mrs S. A. Simmons. Heritage
St., Kinston, N. C, found
Kidney Pills to be an effective
remedy for trouble and head-

In The Cotton Belt.
The New Orleans Picayune reports
in its weekly review of the weather
and the crops, that owing to the ad-
lateness of the cotton crop all

has become more than ever important
for so late a period in the season.
The unusually warm and summery
weather during September
did a great deal towards pushing
ahead the latest portion of the crop
and the cooler weather of the past
week, unaccompanied by frost, will
no doubt help rapid maturing. There
was a fair amount of rain in the belt
during the past seven days, and in
some districts the rainfall was ex-

the lateness of the crop, the date of

in the world.
There has prevailed, and is in
much less degree today, a
that the church in
its merits as a place for people
to attend, was transgressing upon
its sanctity. Never was graver

to His followers was publicity to
the world, and it was when the
church fell into more or less
failed to avail itself of means
to attract, that it lost its force to
bring man within its walls. The
church notice of services, day, hour
and place, has brought in many a
man, who would not have
gone to a religious service The
publication of a song service, of some
distinguished singer, or quartet, of-
ten a sacred instrumental concert
has brought in men and women who
would not have come, it they had not
been thus publicly attracted.
The voice from the pulpit will fail
in large measure, unless there the
outside notice calling attention to
the pulpit has to declare to a
starving multitude, hungry for divine
food. It is the church publicity, its
advertising that brings in those who
nay come to scoff, but finding that
the church is honest and sincere in
