let us glance for an instant at
other nations. The Greeks, tin

We are indeed a people peculiar
to ourselves. The world has
never before seen a nation com-

as truly a nation as any upon the
earth. The ideal that hold us
must be an ideal

ideal of the Greeks was the beau-

for a form of government in

COL. F. G. ADDRESS.
Col James said the
erection of a Training School
in Eastern Carolina for teachers
was first proposed, Pitt county
was among first, to endorse
the measure and support it with
her accustomed zeal, and when
the act passed the legislature
and became a law, almost her
entire population got busy to
devise means and ways to secure
the location of the new
here. The contest
friendly, but spirited, and when
the smoke of conflict bad cleared
away the victory was ours. The
shouts of r-juicing are still
reverberating through many
parts of our grand old county
and will continue to be occasion-
ally until at least some of
these new buildings will have
become mossy with age;
while all of cur citizens did their
lull duty in voting upon
selves bonds, and going down in
their pockets for cash to defray
expenses and in many other
ways, and while all did their full
duty and all deserve great credit,
yet in my humble opinion to our
eminent leader, our foremost
and most beloved is due
most of the honor and glory of
planting this great institution
upon this beautiful hill, and in
the years to come as the noble
women and patriotic young men
shall go out from thee walls to
teach in the schools throughout
the State, I would have them
duly teach their pupils to love,
honor and revere the name of
Thomas Jordan Jarvis.
s Pitt county may
not share the historic glory of
Mecklenburg and Guilford, her
daughter are as fair, pure and
noble and her sons true,
patriotic and brave as trod the
earth, a d they have at last ac-
quired the on needful and
are now enthused with the spirit
of education, as is evidenced by
many new and handsome
school buildings recently erected
throughout the county and
large attendance here today,
of which prompts me to pledge
to this new institution and its
management, the loyal support
of all our people.

Friday was a day Greenville
will not soon forget.
The sugar trust is about

This is u day has
long looked forward to with an-
of pleasure, for it
is realized the fruition of her
hopes and the reward of her la-
for years.
It was about years ago
that some of our people most in
in education began dis-
cussing the matter that some-
where in Eastern North Carolina
there should lie located a train-
school for teachers, From
this grew the movement on the
legislature of for the pas-
sage of a bill to establish such a
school. Greenville took a prom
part in this and sent sever-
delegations to Raleigh during
the legislature. The bill was
passed, and the location of the
school was left with the State
Board of Education,
Imbued with the belief that
Greenville was the best place in
the East for the school, the town,
backed by the people of the
county, went to work
the State Board of Education
of this fact. In an in
which there was not a dissenting
vote, Greenville voted
for the school, and the county
voted a like sum by fully a two-
thirds majority. These
donations, together with a
choice of several beautiful sites,
had the desired effect on the
State Board of Education, and
the decision of that body was
in favor of Greenville.
Our joy knew no hounds when
the glad news that the
school would be located here, yet
Greenville did not stop there to
rest on her laurels. The people
have taken great interest in
every movement since ground
was first broken on the
with pride the progress
of the handsome buildings, and
were ready at all times to be of
any assistance they could. The
actual work of construction be-
early in the summer
and in a year there were six
beautiful buildings ready for the
school to open. These are ad-
ministration building,
dormitory,
infirmary and power house,
all models of skill
and completeness, and
furnished, making a school
of which any State might
feel proud.
The school was opened on

DR. LECTURE.
The auditorium of the graded
school was more than filled Fri-
day night to hear the illustrated
lecture of Dr. IF. Shies, of
Washington City, on the hook
worm disease. The Redactor
will not undertake to give a
synopsis of the lecture, as it
could be appreciated only by
hearing it and closely follow
the speaker. Dr. Stiles has
for several years been making a
study of conditions in the South
with special investigation of the
hoed; worm disease, and the
statistics given
in his lecture shows the alarm-
in which this
exists. He declared that our
are too with
man life, is they give heed
only to the
greatly excited over some-
thing like the sinking of a ship
attended by the loss of a few
hundred lives, yet feel little or
no concern about the existence
of diseases that annually claim
thousands of victims. The
pose of his lecture was to
this by educating the people
to better sanitary conditions
through which they can safe-
guard health and materially
lower the death rate. That this
section should give hoed to Dr.
advice is shown in his
statement that in the few hours
he spent Greenville he saw
fully one hundred people who
have the hook worm disease.
Dr. Stiles is certainly doing the
people a great service, and
that has been heard here is
calculated to do more real good
than his lecture Friday night.
futures, where it is not the in-
to deliver any cotton but
settle the profits or losses in
margins, the entering into a
contract to sell cotton make
actual delivery of it at a certain
time. He said that under the
law the former is gambling, but
the latter is not. Judge
impressed the fact that when a
person sells cotton to be deliver-
ed at a certain time at a
price, he is under tin- fame
hi deliver the

tract into which he has entered.
Those who have been consider-
the matter of testing such
contracts on the ground that it
is gambling, in order to avoid
delivering the cotton, should
think well before taking such a
Step, as the law will be against it.

of the State and from four
States. We greet you
with the fond hope that you have

thoroughly equip yourselves to
fill in the best possible way,
whatever positions, occupations,
or professions you may choose in
life. We welcome you within
these walls. We bespeak for
you earnest, faithful efforts on
your part. We take you fully
into our confidence, our friend-

we may do our best to aid you in
building wisely and well for your
future work and life.
With us today are men from
more than one fifth of the
ties in State, who are the
lenders and directors of the en-
tire educational interest and
progress of their respective
ties. We know something of
your burdens, the cares you have,
your imperative need for those
work under you, who are fitted
prepared by proper training
to make your schools what you
so earnestly desire they should
be, and for which many of you
are giving the best of your lives,
We are glad you are here with
us. We would assure you of our
deep and lasting interest in your
work. We greet you in hearty
co-operation, promising you our
best efforts shall be given to
send you men and women
thoroughly prepared and equip
both in head and heart, to
stand with you in your noble
work for the boys and girls under
your care.
We believe that the legislature
acted wisely when it passed the
bill for the establishment of this
school. We know it acted more
wisely when it left the selection
of the trustees to the State Board
of Education, as is evidenced
here today by the presence of
this splendid body of men. It is
you gentlemen, who have plan-
so wisely and faithfully, and
have built so magnificently, this
institution to be the
ideal of this section of the State.

did it. We join the entire State

you and pledge you our loyal sup-
port and our best efforts and co-
operation in making North Caro-

long and so well, we will just
then be coming to realize that
chis last crowning act of service
to your State and your people is
your best, and is in truth and

There is another absent, the
governor of the state, as govern-
or and ex-i chairman of the
State Board of Education. Al-
ready the state is beginning to
feel the impulse of his wise
administration. Standing
ways for the best, both in home
life and in public service, moral,
educational, and pro
can but be our inheritance
while he is guiding the helm of
State.
Last, but by no means least, I
come specially by the voice of
the entire united faculty as their
messenger to greet in love,
affection and appreciation, you,
Mr. President, our president, our
leader, our head. Safe in your
hands is the destiny of this in-
We realize, we fully
appreciate the
your task brings upon you. We
rejoice that these few days of

in administrative capacity, cordial
and loving in companionship,

but congratulate this
and the State that this call has
come to you to and direct
the destinies of this last daughter
of the State.
Our eyes turn for a moment to
the future. We see under you
here, an institution with five
hundred, yes even a thousand
young men and young women,
being thoroughly trained and
equipped for life's best service,
going in every so tool district
in North Carolina, both urban
and rural, and by example and
precept, loving and enthusiastic-
ally bringing happiness to every
human soul, by dispelling
ignorance and prejudice, and in
their stead, giving enlightenment
and culture. This task you
voluntarily assumed. We
glad it is thus. In the name of
every one of us I pledge this
faculty to give you at all times,
their loyal and faithful support,
their honest and earnest
or, their best efforts, both of
head and heart, in task you
been called to undertake.
Again and finally, for each
and everyone of us, I greet
as president, as leader, as
as friend, and may heaven's
best gifts to man be yours as
a fitting reward for service well
done.

Only an attempt upon the part
of Americans to their
life around some norm. The
salvation of our ideal depends
upon the centering of our life in
the temple of our national
public schools.
When the people of our land
awake to a full realization of
what our schools mean to us as a
people, then the profession of
teaching will no longer be looked
upon simply a means of
hood, but as the guardian of
American life and the shaper of
American destiny. In this pro-
should be drawn the
purest, the noblest and the best
of American talent. It is to be
deplored greatly that the present

men of real worth from this field

well. Almost all of them are
conscientious, earnest workers;
yet through the lack of

Teaching is fast being recognized
as a profession and the time will
soon come when only the
well trained will be licensed
to practice. Just as the old
herb doctor has passed away
before the onward march of the
medical profession. So the
keeper of school must give
place to those properly prepared
for this profession. There are
certain fundamental facts that
each prospective doctor must
know before he can begin the
practice of medicine. And there
are certain basal principles in
education that will soon be re-
quired of every teacher. The
profession of medicine is con-

PITT BOYS WIN SUCCESS.
Some Will Soon Move
Into Their New Building
Wherever The Reflector, man
strikes any of our home boys
who have cast their lot in other
places, it is always a pleasure to
find them getting along well and
making success of their business.
While in Norfolk Friday we took
enough time off from the
ties to look over the new building
being erected by Whichard Bros.
Co., wholesale dry goods and
notion dealers there. This firm
has had such a successful career
that though they have moved
once to larger quarters, it was
not long before they found them-
again cramped for room to
accommodate their growing
business. To provide for this
they decided to erect a modern
building, and for this purpose
secured a desirable lot on Ran-
street near the Atlantic
hotel. They now have nearly

institution, between
