The second day and closing of the Pitt county fair dawned bright and; beautiful, with enough crispness in the air to make it delightful. People began arriving early and the first trains brought great crowds. The schools that arrived early had an hour or two to look at the exhibits before parade, and it was a great revelation to the children to see what their county is doing in the way of products. At o'clock the schools began assembling on Five Points in for the parade, and people along the streets designated for the line of march to view them as they passed. The following schools were Carolina Teachers Training school, Winterville High School, Farmville graded school, Grifton graded school, Bethel graded school, Ayden graded school, and about forty of the district schools, the names of all of which we could not learn. They embraced between twelve and fifteen hundred children, and made a procession about a mile in length. The head of the line had gone around and nearly back to Five Points In time to see the rear leaving there. It was a great procession. Headed by the officers and board of governors of the fair and the band, the procession moved off at o'clock with the Training school first in line, then the schools from other towns in the county and the country schools, the Greenville graded school being at the rear. The procession was greeted with much applause all i mg line of march, many de- i hiring it the finest spectacle they had ever seen In Pitt county. The was along the streets previously indicated, and arriving at the Star warehouse the following pro- gram was carried Music by band. Words of Welcome, by Prof. W. H. Introduction of Speaker, by Gov.

Ho was proud to feel that he was among his people, and he had with pleasure watched the educational progress of Pitt county led by such a man as Prof. and his introduction by that Noblest Roman, Governor Jarvis, whom God had to do so much for his county, was an honor indeed. He said the great procession of school children that had Just taken place was a scene to fill any heart with pride and Inspiration.

Mr. Joyner referred to the wonderful ed- progress North Carolina has made in the past decade in a school house a day and quadrupling; the appropriation to her public schools. This progress not stop here, and our elementary schools, our high schools, our training schools must lead to the schools that fit the children for their respective In life through the farm lire After the address Old North was sung with spirit.

Mr. L. W. Lawrence, to open court. Quite a number of ladies Were in the audience to hear the charge Judge Whedbee. The first business was the Calling I, Institutions of the county. Judge Whedbee said it made him sad to speak- of our county home. There are not more than a counties in the state that can boast of more material progress than ours. Pitt is the best county in the have the best people, best schools, and COURT there are just two things in which we are badly even smaller counties, and one of these is our county home, which he must say with regret is a shame to the county. It really ought to be called a poor house as in years until we improve It and so Improve it that it Is a home for the aged and Infirm. He suggested that the commissioners consider this The other feature in which Pitt is behind many other counties, be said, was our public roads. It mat- not what opinions are held as to how good roads shall be built, by bond Issue or otherwise, they should be built, for our poor roads are costing the people of the county thousands of dollars annually. As Judge Whedbee concluded his charge Solicitor arose for a few words. Be said he had just gone through this new court house and wanted to congratulate the com- missioners and people of county for building the best court house in the It was even better than his own county of Carteret. Erecting such a building-is an evidence of prosperity of the people. He wished also to say to the people of Pitt county that Judge Whedbee was a record on the bench that Is a high credit both to his county and himself.

ROADS. la the discussion of building good roads In Pitt county you have heard the expression by those trying to ate opposition to the movement that at was a waste of money to put it in sand-clay roads, the kind we would build down here. But listen to this expression from Charlotte Ob- North Carolina is rapidly coming around to an appreciation of the value of sand-clay roads as a permanent form of building The old system of macadamizing is gradually losing in popular favor, and. strange as it may to what is for the best interest of the public. We have tried to equip our plant for good service, and only ask for such support as is merited. Do you think we are entitled to yours Good people. The Reflector, in the last few days especially, has been re- cording some Pitt county history that is worth while and good enough to be preserved and handed down to future generations. The articles in refer- to the Pitt county fair, to the opening of the new court house and the first term of court therein, the public meeting of the Civic League, and the spirit of progress taken by Carolina club, will make good reading for the generation fifty or a hundred years from now and show them what their forefathers did in making a greater and a grander Pitt county. These things mark in epoch in our history and we must take from them the impetus to go forward as never before. in the state. A young fellow of Ludlow. Mass. was presented a gold watch on his 21st birthday because he had never used a profane word, never smoked or chewed tobacco, never touched a drop of liquor and never kissed a girl outside of his own family. Maybe he didn't, but we don't believe it. Every of Pitt county has a feeling of pride when he looks at Judge on th bench. It is not every day you find a young man An Illinois congressman is predict- that this country will have a rev- within twenty years unless congress enacts some remedial labor legislation. The children from the rural schools who came to participate in the parade, made a splendid impression by their fine appearance. The visitors from the outside are ready to join with the home folks and say that Pitt county is the in the stale. There is no questioning the fact of such legal ability as he possesses, that Pitt county folks can do things no one of even many more years who makes so excellent a judge.

They naturally think being part and parcel of the community they have some sort of citizenship duties ex- from them. This feeling is at might be termed The citizen has had it with him right along. All he needed to start it was the pressure on a mythical button, which should be called When a of any town is told Any has the most beautiful lawns south of any- where. Mr. Merchant takes a mental review of the looks of his lawn and makes note of the statement. This s his button, and that statement has touched it. It is the same with anything that has to Jo with town. It has been said for years and years, that comparisons are horrible. There are two sides to this question. Comparisons may pear horrible for whatever they help But this is not so. Com- much like competition, tends to improve whatever ma be ed or competed for. In all communities, some members will be found out to lack this civic pride. These members simply refuse to realize with the rest that they can help make a of their own town. They stubbornly refuse to en- with the rest, and in some cases even refuse to listen to the sons advanced to show why they should join the M WEDDING. Mm Blew Becomes The Bride of Mr. W kitted.

In mentioning the Burke case The Landmark expressed the opinion that other women had been hanged in the state. The Raleigh News and Observer demanded to know when and where.

That some work has been going on was shown when applications for membership were called for, twenty active and two honorary members be- elected at this meeting. The honorary members were Revs. C. M. Rock and J. H. Shore. The question of deeper waterways and sending delegates to the coming inland waterways convention in Washington City was announced for discussion at the regular monthly meeting the first Monday night in.

The club voted unanimously to co- operate with the Civic League in the effort to a better and more beau- Greenville. Thus it will be seen that Carolina club has started out on a campaign to do things, and it wants all men of the town to enlist in the work.

Editor This writer attended the great Pitt county fair Friday. Oh, wasn't It wonderful that this grand old county could get up so many exhibits and so many bright, white children, solid Saxon yeomanry, their sons and fair daughters everywhere. I feel proud that I first saw the light here. One mistake the managers made was to have speakings and the fair under one roof. That procession of boys and sweet Southern girls that arc soon to be husbands fathers, wives and mothers. Soon they are to be at the helm of state. And we old antebellum people will soon pass over the river. Well, I saw a long procession of militia men of Pitt county in Green- ville the last general muster before the Civil war. It was. I think.

One of the best ways of hang on to your faith In human nature is by always taking good security on your loans. The Conference Plan. The conference cf governors of the cotton producing states held in New Orleans has made its looking to an adjustment of the price of cotton on a profitable basis. The first paragraph of the We earnestly recommend to the planters of the southern states to fol- low the example of Louisiana and so diversify their crops as to produce everything necessary for consumption on the farm and let cotton be the surplus crop even If the quantity raised shall be per cent less than present crop, as then they will get just as much In return for much less labor than this year's crop will yield at present prices, will soon free them- selves from debt and be In without any financial aid, to sell their crops gradually, as the demand shall exist and not market the work of a year in or days as they have been accustomed to do. That recommendation has the right ring to it, and is Identical with the plan repeatedly urged In these col- as being the most practical and sensible one to follow. A farmer with a store debt for supplies and for fer- account cannot hold his cot- ton. He is forced to sell at whatever price ho can get whether above or below the cost of production. But a farmer who has had the foresight to make all his supplies on his farm meat and vegetables, and grain and hay for horses and cattle and has not had to Incur debt for these things to make his crop, with another year's supply in his crib and barn, can hold his cotton and continue to live at home. The recommendations go further and advise every farmer to not only reduce his cotton acreage, hut to plant the so reduced in some grain crop that will make food for man and beast We believe that per cent of the present year's cotton land sown to wheat and oats this fall and followed next summer with peas for crop and soil will go far toward solving the News. have a circulation of 1,200 among the best people in Eastern North Carolina and invite those who wish to get better acquainted with these good people in a business way to take a few inches space and tell them what you have to bring to their attention. are low and can be had upon application.

All Should Take An Interest In Editor The town of Greenville is quite fortunate In having in its midst such an organization to work for its and development as the Civic League. These few ladies that have banded themselves together with a definite purpose that stands for sonic- thing, deserve much credit, and should have the sanction and support of every true citizen that loves his town. Some may the ladies as out of their sphere, and that such movements tend towards man but if woman consists of such work as the Civic League is doing, then it would be good for Greenville The same treatment and care that an intelligent individual gives him- self is good for the community in which we live. Our streets and other public places should be kept clean and made to have as good an appear- as possible. And it is this great undertaking that the Civic League for its immediate object. If there is no garbage can law there should be one and it should be enforced. A filthy, trashy, street is no more attractive to the people that visit Greenville the dirty, rag- individual Is to visitors are no more impressed with the dirty town than you are with the like individual. As to improvements of our streets, of course that is a matter for the. board of aldermen to take up, to push, and to accomplish, owing to the Training school, water and lights. and other improvements that you have already made, the town is bonded and In debt, and there does not seem to be much capital for the aldermen to operate with. But if such light as we are able to make will be put through whenever the opportunity for them arises, and if the property owners will co- operate with the aldermen by doing their part, not six months later after much damage has been done, but in conjunction with the town, much good can be accomplished. To be more explicit, suppose the town grades a street and puts on sand and clay, and the property owner does not put up curbing as is required by law, but not enforced, what happens Dur- a rain the water that does not wash across the side walk puddles on the walk along the side of the walk where the gutter should be. thereby softening the newly street and causing same to muck up become worse than before improving. Any pedestrian who has to use these curbed side walks can tell you of their condition in wet weather. It would be a great Improvement from a stand- point of looks and comfort if every properly owner on unimproved as well as improved streets would put. up curbing and pay some attention to their But there is no use building sidewalks If you do not. protect them With curbing of some kind. These suggestions are made in the spirit of Interest that have in Green- ville, and I hope you will take them for what they are worth. Such can be made at very lit tie coat to any one. There are many other such Improvements that would be of much benefit to our town, so let us all make suggestions that we think will be helpful, and come to- in concerted effort to improve and make It more attractive, not only to ourselves but to those who us. that they may be persuaded to cast their lot in Greenville, thus helping hear our burdens and enjoy our pleasure.
