The meeting of the Pitt County Association held in the chapel of the graded school. Sat morning, was very well attended considering the cold weather. The devotional were conducted by Rev. D. W. Arnold. Mr. Austin came first on the program. He made an clear and helpful talk on the of the In a skillful introduction he prepared his hearers and led them up to his subject with the ease of one who knows how. In brief, he said that the purpose of a recitation determines its essentials and that this purpose should be the mastery of the gem, principles subject, and the application of them to the end that we may lead happier, healthier and more useful lives. To teach, test and train is the opportunity of the teacher in a recitation; to learn and to apply is the opportunity of the pupil. Then he asked the question, the process of and in a simple and -clear way explained how sensations reach the brain by means of the nervous system. In the stream of consciousness that constantly flows before the mind we may arrest a certain subject, hold it up before con- and examine it until thoroughly acquainted with it. This is attention, the first lbs recitation- By what means may the stream of con- be stopped so what we wish may be held up before minds of the pupils Interest will do this. Interest is a feeling of value, a sense of the worth of knowledge gained. There must be a kernel in the nut to help appetite of knowledge. Then lastly teacher must make things real to pupils. Much of the stuff given pupils always remains stuff does not get worked up into real boy or real girl. things taught must be a living reality to the teacher and must be brought into and vital contact with the pupil. Miss then read a paper on to get and hold She spoke in a helpful and practical way, saying that thorough preparation on the part of the teacher is mental principle of getting and keeping attention. That help may be found in using maps, pictures and various devices; and that often change of position and change of the plan of the is of incalculable assistance. Mr. from a point of view discussed the of reviewing briefly the stage of apprehension when a subject ii seen in its unity, that of comprehension when its are viewed. By the process of synthesis the old and new knowledge is Lt lie forcefully of the application, saying that tho world is not helped by knowledge itself, but by edge applied. Miss Gray concluded tho pro gram with a discussion of the of a cut of real Study, the bearing of this f work upon tin school, loom gave m i why those pupils who pi th lessons to do it, and p how it i. that ft I o would do their work .

Medical experts have declared Early is r.-a y a leper. Bo there you are again. Increased cost of living is get- ting its share of writing but the cost hangs oil all the same. With everything to eat so high, farmers should plan to raise plenty of things in that this year. The Chamber of ought to made a new year resolution to plan larger for Greenville. The high price of last cotton crop may be a n to farmers to plant for a large crop this year. If they yield to tills temptation and make bumper crop, they will Dud much disappointment in the Ion price that will prevail. We cannot get away from the desire to see in the list of towns having cotton mills. There is every opportunity for one or more to do well here- plenty f raw material, good sites and splendid facilities. We hope this year will bring at least one.

If every farmer in Pitt county will endeavor to make two bush- ell of corn this year where he made one last year, there will be plenty of full bins when next harvest time comes. The Durham Herald suggests that Peary be sent out to find Cook- One trouble about that would be pinning Peary down to she troth about it in case he found him.

Proper activity Will make the town go forward as never before, and we believe activity will be shown. With the cm growing prizes that are offered to farmers and their SOUS, many of them should be enthused to make special forts in that direction this year.
