After this Dr. J. II. Iliglismitli, Supervisor of Higli vSehools, discussed the following "Educational Ohjeetives”: A suflicient supply of adeipiately trained teaeliers, a lengtli of at least H months for all .schools, the supervision of ele mentary schools, the county-wide plan and revenue. President Andrews of High Point tlien ai)i)ointed two committees, on nominations and resolutions, respectively. “The Fourth R”, an addre.ss by Dr. E. W. ('rawford, of Xashville, Tenn., featured the meeting at 7:30 P. M.

We do not eom- phTe an automobile and then hope to go back and install the gears; neither can we afford to teaeli the "Three R's” and hope to later install the fourth— R Religion,” tlie .speaker declared in his effort to emphasize the great need of teaching religion in the schools. Mr. Kdwin M. Steckel, Director of Public School Music, (lastonia, X. C., entertained the audience by his ‘T>eeture- Reeital” on the development of music. His clever way of making ])un.s on words to elineli every iioint held the attention of his audience. Music was rendered by I choruses eompo.sed of teachers from High Point, Winston-Salem and (Ireensboro. ; lU'tween the general meetings Depart-! mental meetings were held in different buildings on the College C’amims. The ' deiiarlmental program in which the higli .school faculty were most interested was ^ the Saturday morning talk on "Bible Study in tlie Public Schools,” by Super- i inteiideiit J. H. Fleming, of Keidsville,' X. C. As a seipiel to Dr. Crawford’s I lecture of Friday evening, Mr. Fleming j unfolded liis plan for religious educa tion which i.s being .successfully operated , in his schools. For two years Reids- ville High School has had a full-time | teacher of the Bible. An advisory Board | comiiosed of 7 ministers of the various teachers and eipiipment. The teacher, however, is approved by the school board. The school suiiiilics room and janitor service. Tlie course i.s elective. One half unit credit i.s given for a year's sat isfactory work. The Old Testament is tauglit in the first year; the Xew 'I'esta- ment the second year. "The teacher of this course this year is a graduate of [ Moody Bible Institute and is doing an | excellent iiiece of work. Almost all students are taking the course, and are hapjiy in it. The work is entirely lion- denominational. The popularity of the course has necessitated the employment of four assistants for grammar grade work,” Mr. Fleming stated in his ex planation. An address on "The Rural School’’ by A. T. Allen, State Superintendent of Public Instruction, Saturday at noon, brought the meeting to a climax. Mr. Allen pled for longer school terms, bet ter schools, and better and more efficient teachers. After a report from the nomination committee, officers were elected for the next year as follows: T. H. Cash, of Winston-Salem, President; J. H. Flem ing, of Reidsville, Vice-President; and MLss Pansy E. Fetner of Burlington, Secretary. Saturday Oct. 31, gho.sts, witchc.s, and otlier revived siiirits took posses.sion of the town. .Main Street was the free- for-all playground. Tlie Hallowe'en festival started about 7:30 and lasted till the wee small liours of the morning. 'I'Ik* organized Hallowe'en celebration started Saturday afternoon at Library Place with several contests. .As the rc.sult of one of these contests, our school superintendent, l''rcderick Archer, holds the title "(’liainjiion Pitch-Fork Artist of (luilford.” Mr. Arclier issued a challenge to all liayrnakers in the coun ty to contest with him in the gentle art of iiitching hay. Xone have a])i)eared to argue the question so by all rules governing such things .Mr. Archer now holds the titie. About 7:1.5 that evening the revelry again started on Library Place. In sjiite of the cold, shivering ghosts and freezing fairies jiaraded and danced to music furnished by the High School hand. From those jiarading a king and (pieen were chosen, together with lords and ladies for the court. 'I’he royal court th(*n took its place on a large float and led a jiarade over town. After tlie ]iarade the scene of revelry moved from Library Place to Flm Street, which was blocked of all traffic. Here the sidewalks gave uj) their traf fic and the jiroud citizens joined tlie mad mob as it imrsued its undignifuTl way. The merry crowds forgot the cold and "Painted the town red.” Masked sjiirits and living creatures of fiction joined bands witli the un masked jileasure seekers and made Hal lowe'en tlie liveliest festival that (Ireens- boro has seen in (jiiite a while. STLDKX'rS HEAR OF "SKEKTER” TRIP (Continued from page one) “Tliere for the first time we found out what real w'ork is like,” continued Ed, “hut we didn’t w’ork but a w’eek; then we went on through South Dakota and the ]?ad I.ands and through Wyoming to the Hardin Mountains, where we again secured jobs, this time at five dollars a day but we had to work 13 hours a day and paid a dollar five for board.” He completed his talk by telling of the beauties of Salt Lake City. Taking up the journey from there, Dick related incidents on their way to San Francisco, where they attended tlie Diamond Jubilee celebrating the 75th anniversary of the admission of Cali fornia to the Union. After staying three weeks they left Clarence with tlie skeeter and the other three boys started out hiking. Down througli lyos Angeles, where Hollywood and the movie stars are, through Death’s \'alley Desert, on through ^Vrizona and from there across the Mexican Border where they saw’ a bull fight. From Jaurez, Mexico, they cauglit a ride in a Hudson Sedan to Mobile, Ala., and tlien to Montgomery, up through Au burn, Alabama and back to Greensboro. In closing Dick spoke of their im- jiressions on the trip. The people every- wliere were hospitable but home looked good w’hcrc they could eat a meal “w’itli- out paying four bits for it.” Tired of w’andering, and know’ing the value of money, each found home and school a real joy, he said. .Mr. Aycock: "(live me the life of Abraham Lincoln?” Jones: “Sorry, sir, but Wilkes Booth beat you to it.'’ Mr. Fartliing; “(live me a definition of a ])olygon?” Mr. Harrison: "A jiolygom is a dead parrot.’’ ('. Scott: "Sadie isn't as big a flirt as she used to lie.” J. Allison: "How is that, reforming?” ('. Scott: "T sliould say not-rcduc- ing.” .Miss Beckwith: “What mood?” Xcd L. (Slecjiily): "The cow.” Mrs. (’am])hell: “Xow’ Marshall I w'aiit you to be good while I am out.” -M. (’anipbell: "I'll he good for a penny.” Mrs. ('.: “.Marshall, I want you to re member that you can never be a son of mine unless you are good for noth ing.” X. B. Clendenin: "I feel like a rubber ball." Mrs. ('.: "Well bounce out of bed then.” Mrs. Tilley: "I believe you are a mu sician, Weldon?” Weldon B. (anxious to give an exhi bition of bis powers): “Well-er-ye.s, I tliink I can claim to have a small repu tation.” Mrs. T.: "I am delighted to hear it. My daugliter is going to play, and I should he glad if you would turn the music for her.*’ Mr. Fordliam (To class of l)oys):j “The subject for today is sodium ster- ate. How many of you hoys ever heard of it?” 'I'liere w’as no response. Mr. Fordliam: “I kind of thought so. Well, the common name for sodium sterate is soap.” U. S. XAVY BAXD REX- DERvS PROGRAM HERE , (Continued from page one) cause their time was so limited, there was little or no intermission between numbers. Tlie director was kind enough to allow the audience to join with his Band in singing one number and then in whistling the accompaniment. 'I'he evening concert started promptly on time, with all thirty-odd instruments in full swung; and an entirely different })rograni wa.s given. Both appearances of the band w’cre enjoyed by full houses.

He asserted that there is the same difference between writing and reporting, that there is be- tw’een art and photography, featured articles and news. As an encouragement to the class, he said that a good reporter is always in demand, and that “w’here there are peo ple, there are stories.” The talk was touched with incidents from his own ca reer as a reporter, and with many of the humorous sides of newspaper life. Mr. Stamey is an alumni of G. H. S., who, after graduating at Carolina, en tered the newspaper field that he might gather material for short stories.
