Large Crowd Speech by Mr. This Memorial Day dawned bright and balmy, and at an early hour were coming in town to attend the reunion of Bryan Grimes Camp of Confederate veterans. Before the hour of assembling, the veterans met and chatted each other, while the visitors sought out places of advantage to view the parade. At ten o'clock the line formed on Third street near the court house square, and headed by a drum corps marched out Evans and Ninth streets to the Star warehouse, where the ex- took place. There were about veterans in line. At the warehouse a large crowd had assembled, the Daughters of the Confederacy and Children of the Confederacy also going in a body. Here Mr. R. W. King, chairman of the committee of arrangements, call- ed on Rev. C. M. Rock for the in- vocation. An address of welcome to the tors, eloquent and cordial, was de- livered by Mayor F. M. Wooten. Major Harding, Commander of Bryan Grimes Camp, responded to the address of welcome, and extend- ed greetings to his comrades. A class from the Training School sang was followed with a recitation Sword of by Miss Fannie Spain, of the graded school, and Conquered by Miss Herndon. on the Old Camp was sung by the Training School class, which was followed with a recitation to Conquered Ban- by Miss Nina Harris. Mr. J. B. James then in ate words introduced the orator of the day, Mr. Albion Dunn. Mr. Dunn in recounting the deeds of valor of Lee and Jackson, made one of the most brilliant Memorial Day ad- dresses that the veterans of Pitt county have had the pleasure of hearing at any of their reunions. In concluding ho paid a beautiful to Gen. Bryan Grimes in whose honor the camp of Pitt county is named. The Reflector would have been glad to print the speech in full, but its length forbid that, and it was too excellent to give In broken ex- tracts. It was a master piece of oratory and those who heard it en- Joyed a feast. At the conclusion of Mr. Dunn's admirable address, Commander H. Harding stated to the camp that the only compensation the ladies and others requested in return for this day's pleasure provided for the old soldiers, was that they should give the and when the com- came the yell sounded with spirit. There were then cries from the camp for and our citizen responded in a few words of cheer and Incidents of the war in which they fought together. After the speaking, Rev. C. W.

That I might improve my health, I have retired from the drug I retire with a profound sin- gratitude to the people of the town and county for the generous and friendly patronage given my drug store. By your patronage, you have contributed much pleasure to me and to my wife, and we are thankful. The accounts made with me, I hold and will be glad to balance myself or Mr. Home will do so for me.

F. M. WOOTEN, As From Page and the material wealth and happiness of our state will know no bounds. Indeed this part of our dear old state will become one of the garden spots of the world In the last twelve months I have been through our country to in to sin In the northwest, on through the southern states to Mississippi, and can truthfully say to you I have not seen a section with greater ties than we have here at home. I see no reason why we should not have here as prosperous, as happy a people as the world in all her full- can produce. Our climate for the twelve months is as fine as can be found; our soil is rich or lends; itself to fertility, and the native i of our people is as great as any , to be found. The key to success for us in EDUCATION spelled in cap-1 We are about the most people on the American continent, and we will remain so if we awake to our opportunities. But if we do not awake to our ties, struggling humanity in less localities will straggle in and take possession by degrees and our sons and daughters will gradually sell their birthright for a mess of pottage. Friends let me insist upon it, the safe guard of our liberties and the key to our prosperity, is education. But our people will never be prop- educated until the teachers have been properly trained for this serious civic duty. It is a conscious realization of this that our state hag established is maintaining the school at Gr ville. You may call me an a crank, if you will, but the b den of my life, yes, my life, is in this work. I care not riches, or honor, but I do care that little child, who is soon to the stern responsibilities of I want him to be able to face th responsibilities with the that will enable him to cope them successfully. Fellow teachers, do you, not see the responsibilities resting upon your shoulders Are you prepared to meet those as they should be met I am not making this plea to get you to get go to Greenville, God forbid that I should be so base, but, I do appeal to you from a conscious realization of the responsibilities resting upon you to make the preparation you to meet with success the noble work you are now undertaking and I don't care where you get your preparation, just so you get it. But the trained teacher must have the support of the people. The hope of our state is in the education of its youth and the hope of this education is In the trained teacher. Get the knowledge necessary and couple with that knowledge a high and noble purpose and your efforts will be crowned with success. A Card. I offer myself a candidate for mayor of our town, and trust that the people may see fit to elect me to the office for the next term. And if elected, it is my purpose to de- vote my time to the work of the of- and living in the open air as much as possible. I shall keep office in the office building now being built by Jno. L.

Duke, multi-millionaire tobacco king and six years ago mistress of a for- tune of nearly is dying a pauper in the Illinois State Hos- for the Insane at Kankakee. Friendless, forgotten by those up- on whom she squandered thousands of dollars in the days of her affluence, forgetting herself both the years of her wealth and the years that ed her down to her present condition of misfortune, and remembering only the time of her youth, Mrs. Duke lies waiting for the summons that will end her spectacular career. Alice Webb, daughter of a New York family, was raised in a Buffalo orphan asylum. Leaving there to make her own living when she was only sixteen years old, she proved her exceptional talents for business. Before she was thirty she had established herself as one of the leading oil promoters of Texas. Her connection with tobacco industry brought about her acquaintance with Brodie L. Duke, who already had teen married twice and was the father of two grown daughters. In November, 1905, she met Duke. On December 1905, they were mar- clandestinely. Duke established bis wife In sumptuous apartments in the Winton Hotel, gave her a summer home in the Adirondacks and rounded her with all the luxuries money could buy. On January 1906, through the action of his brother, Benjamin Duke, president of. the to- trust, and Brodie L. Duke's two daughters, the bridegroom was torn from the arms of his wife and com- to Belleville. When he was released his temper toward Mrs. Duke had been changed. Finally driven by his attitude, she applied for a divorce with alimony, but hast the case. After that she started on an independent financial career which closed with her arrest here on the charge of passing bogus checks. She afterward was commit- to the State Hospital for the In- sane, where has been since 1909. Richest City in the Country. It is a popular impression that Newport, R.

JR. The Court of Justice. There has come to an end In the state of New York a law suit which affords a striking Illustration of the inefficiency of the American judicial and lawmaking systems. The plaintiff and defendant married and became partners in were unable to agree, quarreled and went to law. That was In 1888. Ever since they have been fighting the case back and forth through the courts. The expense in- aggregates half a million most of which was paid to the lawyers that were employed, from time to time. Death has claimed of the judges before whom the case was brought, as well as of the witnesses. The final decision came only a few days ago, after years of Of course, this case is a rare and its duration is undoubtedly due primarily to the obstinacy and of the litigants. But if there was not a good cause for action the case should have been thrown out of court at If there was a good cause for action It should not have been possible to delay the awarding of Justice for years and pile up half a million dollars of ex- Leader. Intimidation of Witnesses. The Mount Airy News says Inti- of witnesses is common in portions of Surry county, and that in two cases at the recent term of Surry court persons were convicted of in- witnesses. The Judge gave the defendants choice of days in jail or fines of and costs. The fines were paid, of course. We don't know the maximum penalty In such cases, but it would seem that this punishment was light, consider- the gravity of the offense. If the Jurors and witnesses may be dated then the whole machinery of the courts falls down and criminals can defy the Land- mark.

Volume GREENVILLE, N. C, FRIDAY, MAY M, 1911. Number THE E. C. T. T. S. The commencement exercises of East Carolina Training School began Sunday morning with the annual sermon which was preached by Rev. Charles E. Maddry, pastor of the Statesville Baptist church. All the churches of the town were closed and a very large assembled in the of the Training School. At o'clock the student body led by the marshals filed Into the hall and filled the front seats, the ting class occupying the first row. The service began with singing two stanzas of Thou Almighty by the school and audience, and Rev. J. H. Shore, pastor of the Methodist church, offered prayer. This was followed by a beautiful an- them sung by the school. Rev. Charles E. Maddry read the 37th chapter of Exodus, the story of Joseph's dream, the resultant envy of his brethren and subsequent sale to Egyptian slavery, and took for his text Gen. the Lord was with Joseph and he was a prosperous The dedicatory of the masterly eloquent sermon which followed was a comparison of Joseph's life to a musical Impediments, the tangle and the open. Joseph, he said, was an never lost hope, though at a time in his career he was plunged into the very depths of a dungeon. The difference between the optimist and the pessimist is the failure of the latter in the ability to see. The world's great need in this new century is more who see. A scene unusual in Greenville's his- and as beautiful as it was novel, was that presented by the class of East Carolina Teach- school in their that were held on the campus Monday evening. A large crowd had assembled in the grove on the west end of the campus, and it seemed as if nature had selected the spot for special occasion. A more beautiful and fitting selection could not have been made. At o'clock the entire school filed out of the administration building and to the music of the Washington band, marching in double column down the widening walk through the lawn, then around by the park into which they circled to the place for the exercises. Every girl was dressed in spotless white and they made a beautiful picture as they marched in perfect step to the music. The school was divided in classes, the freshmen leading, each class bearing a banner with the year in which it would graduate. The class of 1911 came in the rear, en- closed in a rope of bamboos en- twined with white roses, the class flower. Reaching the place wired off for the class exercises, the column halt- ed and opened ranks for the seniors to pass, then filed through in reverse column forming a semi-circle be- hind the class. The seniors entwined the garland they carried around the class tree and sang the class Then Miss Lillie Tucker, the president, stepped to the and delivered the address of welcome, which was as President Members of the faculty, fellow students, ladies and In behalf of the class of 1911, the first graduating class of our beloved institution, I extend to you a cordial welcome to our class exercises. We have gathered around our tree to hold our last class meeting as seniors for purpose of burying our records and inaugurating a tom which we trust will continue to exist long after we are gone; and also for the purpose of setting a precedent which, we hope will be followed by all future classes. In looking back over the past two years during which we have striven together, we see that many improve- might have been made, but whatever have been our fa Its, our hearts have been true. In making the record of our deeds a part of our school soil, we at the same time promise that the deeds themselves will form a part of, and help to nourish the institution which has so greatly befriended us. No one can ever know what it has meant for us to be here; to be with these up- lifting influences, to be one in pose and desire. Few people can realize what It means, has meant, or will mean to hundreds of girls to have such as this school open to them and with- in their reach. We would not let this opportunity pass to thank the noble hearted men who saw the need of such an institution and who help- ed to land It. Especially do we thank the county of Pitt and the town of Greenville for the great part they played in making our school just what it is. In giving expression of our we, at the same time, offer in return for all our school has done for us, our hearts, our hopes our lives in the great work of training the children under care into a higher life. We hope to see our alma mater prosperous and grow and we pledge ourselves to be ever loyal and true to its interests. To you, fellow students, we entrust the keeping of this spirit. May you always he united in the highest aims and purposes, and may you reach higher goals than we have attain- ed. Miss Highsmith followed with the class history, as History of Class of The history of our class is so close- connected with the history of the school that I shall ask you to review with me a few of the experiences we have Shared together, and then tell you some of our very own. When the news was spread abroad that the new C. T. T. S. would be ready for the reception of students October 1909, about responded to the call, anxious to take the train- to become teachers. They came from many parts of the state, and one from Virginia, although the ma- was from Eastern Carolina. Long will the memory of our rival here, and of the trials and joys of the first few days and weeks re- main with us The merry times had fixing up our new rooms, select- closet curtains, getting acquainted etc. We were all green together, so of course, the greatest harmony On October the first student body of the E. C. T. T. S. assembled in the auditorium for general directions from our president, with reference to registration and classification. After registering, or giving a history of ourselves in to the office, we went the rounds of the faculty to be classified. Not a few there who remembered about the texts they had studied, except the color of the book. But in a remarkably short time the teachers had sized up the situation and we were set off as A, B, and C classes, with work assigned. Real work it was, too, from the very first, for despite the fact that we had no desks except benches borrowed from the churches, no lights except small oil lamps, no maps, and no black- boards, the work went ahead like Mr. Frazier and his Among things discussed at our chapel exercises at that time was the absence of rules and regulations. Our president said we would begin with a clean sheet, and rules would come only as needed. Alas they did come, all too soon. In those days till December , we had no lights to give us the wink, and it was found that some girls did not know when to go to bed. They also did not know when to visit. So of course, as we were here to develop every side of our brains, we had to learn. Then, by sad experience, we learned that it was best not to leave the campus, not to be late to meals, and that study hour must be strictly kept if we were to do good work. Among the first organizations to be formed in our new school was a Y. W. C. A. One of our members, Pattie was elected president. Nearly all the girls in school became and so successfully was it man- aged that it has since been an in- factor in the school. Our first holiday came on November on Page ISSUE -r
