The report of the State showed circles in the State with a membership of The different officers made their annual reports, which showed that much progress had been made in the work over the State during the year. The reports of the several cir- were called for and read by the representatives. These gave interesting accounts of what the circles are doing and pledged to greater effort for the coming year. Mrs. Clarence G. Burton, State secretary of the Virginia circles, was introduced to the convention and its privileges extended. She responded briefly and expressed her thanks for the honor. Little Miss Flossie Harris, of Salisbury, the youngest delegate here, made a report for be child- society recently there, and it was so excellent that the convention gave her a rising vote of thanks.

The session this afternoon devoted to further reports from the circles a general son of were and m-wan tn in- crease the membership and In- prove the work. Several weeks ago Mrs. son was taken sick and from the first her condition was serious. As a last hope of her she was taken to the hospital at Washington two weeks ago where an operation was perform- ed last Sunday. She continued to grow worse until death came Friday night as a release to her intense sufferings. Mrs. Nelson was truly a most excellent woman and will bi sadly missed in the community. Here was a faithful Christian life, filled with acts of kindness and deeds of love for others. She was a member of Memorial Baptist and for many years, as long as her health would permit, was the devoted teacher of the infant class of the I Sunday school. It was a beau-1 picture to see her each day morning surrounded by scores of bright little faces, every one beaming with love for her. Among these little people there are many sorrowing hearts today that one whom they loved is no more. To the aged mother this death is inexpressibly sad. Three times in the same number of years, the dead body of a loved child has been brought home to her for burial. All hearts weep with her in this great sorrow and commend her to God in whom she trusts for comfort and strength to bear her afflictions. The funeral will take place at o'clock this afternoon, services being held in Memorial Baptist church by Rev. J. B. Cook, the interment following in Cherry Hill cemetery. The pall bearers are Messrs. R. C. Flanagan, H. A. White. D. L. James, J. C. Tyson, C. Laughinghouse, B. F. Tyson, J. W. Perkins, J. B. Little, E E. Parham, R. Cobb, H. W. Whedbee, W. and J. L. Fleming. J. L. Scotch People Here.

Dr. Hill's address was one that touches the practical side of life, and entertained his hearers along a line of thought that was re- freshing ard exhilarating. In a clear and convincing he showed why the boys and the girls of today should be to highest decree of economic efficiency, so as to combat the rapidly diminishing resources of the nation's natural wealth. His reference to the fact that the girls should be trained not only in the artistic, but also in the affairs of life, and should be able to pare a meal along economic and healthful lines, was timely, and by the expressions from the audience, seemed to meet with BAPTIST CLASS. its approval, from the male side at least Dr. Hill's address was quite original in its scope, and was such that tends to call the young to a close communion with the future problems of life, and no doubt did lots of Exhibit at the Colored School. In the past a large number of people have expressed a desire to me to visit the graded school for the colored people, and have asked about a suitable time Tomorrow afternoon at o'clock the teachers will have an exhibit of the work of the pupils, and I wish to extend an invitation to the white people of Greenville to go to see it. We have tried to stress the industrial side of the school this year. I believe the work in sewing will be an agreeable prise to the people. Much of the written work of the pupils is also very creditable, and I trust a good number of people will go to the school tomorrow and see the exhibit. H. B. faith. Supt.

News and Observer. GREENVILLE HEALTH RECORD. Only Two White People Have Died Since Christmas Mr. E. G. Flanagan has been in the undertaking business here for several years, and is well informed on vital statistics of the town. Talking with The Reflector about the health record of Greenville, he said that since this year came in, now nearly five month--, there have been only two white per- sons to die in town. One of these was an aged lady who had been an invalid a long time, and the other was a young man who had pneumonia followed by fever. For a town of this is a remarkable record, and speaks well for the health- of the community. the record year by year Greenville will show a death rate much below that of neighboring towns. The death rate here has always been low, and since the town installed a good system of water supply and sewerage the rate has been even further reduced as the instance by Mr. Flanagan clearly shows.
