The most delightful and useful col lection that has been issued by the State Department of Education in years is the bulletin giving the pro gram of exercises of North Carolina Day in the public schools of the State, which has just been sent out lo the county superintendents. , a The law of the State provides that North Carolina Day shall "be celebrated every year in the public schools, with exercises devoted "to the considera tion of some topic or topics of our State history, to be selected by the State Superintendent." This year Su perintendent Joyner has decided to .vary custom by turning the attention of the school children on Friday, De= cember 19th, not to past history, but to the living present and to the glo rious opportunities of rural life, mak ing it an agricultural and Knapp Me morial Day. a The material of the North Carolina Day bulletin directs the child's natural inquistireness toward the magic won derland of bis own father's farm leads him to search for and to love its en chantments. show him how t<5 master ? that wonderland, how to develope it. and at the same time awakens in' him a desire to develop himself to the full ness of the statue of a good farmer, tha^b e may in due time eficiently reign over his father's demesne. | To quote Superintendent Joyner's j own words. "It is the rural teacher's duty to help ojten" their (the pupils') eyes to the glorious sights and their | ears to the heavenly harmonies about j them. In the country is a museum j filled with living specimens of all sorts , of life, whose walls are the boundless horizon, whose roof is the arched sky Then our young people would not be , so anxious for the artificallties of the city, its movingpictiire shows and , other things. Train them t<5 see and I understand God's great moving pic ture show, which begins with the ris- j ing of the sun and ends with the set- . ting thereof, and in which the scenes j are shifted every hour by the hand of , God for the delegation of His people. ; ?With Shakespeare, then, they would find 'Tongues in trees, books in run- i ning "brooks, sermon's in stones, and^ good in everything.' " -r j The buletin is brimming over with j information and inspiration for the ? ' country child, which -is worthy of a I permanent place in the school libra ries, and which will be of hardly Jess j value to children of the] cities. There J, are articles from the peh of Clarence . , Poe, in which he preaches the great J propaganda of farm improvement, in- . spiring the boys and girls to remain ! on the farm and to make its develop- L ment- their life work, and giving prac-!, ileal instruction as to how this may be done wisely and well. Many ex- M perienced letters from ruccessful corn I club boys and canning club girls of I the State are also used. One of the most engaging of the articles in the bulletin is the letter to 1 the bdys and girls from Prof. Ben- L Jamin F. Stedd, of Wake Forest, on the subject of books aid reading. In j inimitable genuineness of style, he leads his xoung reader over the long f and winding journey of his own chil- ! hood and youth, through the misty realms of rojnance and the flowered meads of ficti^b, from the time when he hid out behind the haystack to steal delicious hoars with "?Mother Goosed' "Grimm," and "Arabian Nights," through the days of t Scott. Cooper, Henty, and "Tennyson, to the time when, as a young min, he devoured Glbon, and Grate, and, Anally Shake speare. And in a most valuable post scrlptum he appends a choice bibliog raphy of one hundred books selected for the young from the world's best , C. B. Hudson, Farm Demonstration Agent, preaches from the text of Or. Seaman A. Knapp's ten Command- i ments of Agriculture, telUng of the work of that great father of the South's agricultural renaissance, and of how to follow his commandments. T. E. Brown. State Agent in Boys' Corn Club Work, tells of the club work.- while Mrs. Charles S. McKim mon tells, of the girls* demonstration work. A. L. French sees a vision of our future agricultt^e. and W. H. Booker of the State Board of Health, writes an instructive paper on '"'Good Health on the Farm," giving practical metlfods of farm sanitation. President D. H. Hill, of the A. & M. College, tells of "Farm Opportunities," Miss Minnie Leatherman. of the State Library Commission, of how to secure a traveling library; H. ,-Hv Qrimley, Curator of the State MuseUra. of. North' Carolina- birds and the necessity for ( ^Jieir protection; E. C. Brooks, of the histoiy o| corn; M. E. Sherwin, Pro fessor of Soils. A. 4rM. College, of the history and development of agricul tural machinery ; R. W. Collett, of j methods of selecting and preparmg farm cropg for exhibit; and W. N. Hntt State Horticulturist, of how to make a fruit and vegetable exhibit on North Carolina Day. The last two call attention to what Dr. Joyner urges as a prime feature of the "trelebration. the local crop ex hibit, to be prepared by the children with the aid of their parents. An other of the more important feaures of the celebration Is the Knapp Me morial exercises, which it is desired be held in every North CaroHna school as a fitting tribute to the man who did. perhaps, more than any other for j the agriculture of this State. Collec tions are to be taken to go to the es tablishment of the "Knapp Farm and School of Country Life" in connection wi tli Pea body College for Teachers at Nashville as a "working living memo- j rial of Dr. Knapp " Valuable sugges- 1 tions for the use of the bulletin are 1 given by Professor X. C. Newbold, of the Department of Education, who did j the work of collection and arrange- | ment, I 1 WHY MIT OKT A til'AKANTEK II , I Krerj Article of Merit that Is Solil I These Days is (. [luruDteeil ? No \ t-uarantee Oiten Mean* Poor Quality. * There is very little excuse for any person to claim that he has been "stung" on a purchasfe. Fifty years ago the buyer had to look out. but to day it is unusual to find a 'merchant who will not return the money for any article that has proved unsatisfactory. An excellent example of this Rind of fair dealing is shown by the clean: cut guarantee that Godfrey-Egerton Drug Co., gives on f>odsonfs Liver 1 Tone. These people tell us that any person 1 who pays 50c for a bottle of Dod son's Liver Tone and doe^i not find it a gentle and most pleasant Ihrer tonic, harmless, but a sure reliever of con- 1 stlpation and a perfect substitute lor I calomel, can get Ills money back just as quick as they ran get it out of the money drawer. Dodson's Liver Tpne has practically taken the place of calomel. It is ab solutely harmles, surfe In its action and causes no restriction of habit or diet. No wonder the drug people are glad to gurantee Itwhile other remedies that imitate the claims of Dodsonlf Liver Tone are not guaranteed at all. San Diego 'Exposition. 8 an Diego, Dec. 13. ? Schumann Heink has taken, the occasion of her visit to her San Diego home to make what may be termed official announce ment that she Is not only going to ap pear at the Ban Diego Exposition in 1916, herself but that her children, all of whom are residents of Ban Diego, ?rill exhibit at the exposition some 1 thing they have raised on the Schu ' 'mann-Heink ranch", at Grossmont, | which is now really a suburb of San Diego, as the city has grown until it ! has almost surrounded the ranch. "Wouldn't it be just wonderful if j something my children have raised would win a prize at the San Diego Exposition?" Schumann- Hclnk said to the exposition officials, when she j made the announcement. The great singer seemed to think that it would be one of*the biggest achievements her children could possibly make* if by chance some of the choice grapes, o ' or&nges. or lemons.' or maybe olives produced on the Grossmont ranc Lshould be prize winners at the grea exposition, for her children reall> operate the ranch, and the winning 01 , such a prize would be in tlienature ol 1 a testimonial as to their personal standing as horticulturalists. j As the San Diego Exposition is go ; ing to specialize to a large extent in exhibits of agriculture and horticul ture. and methods of irrigation and ' dry farming as applied to lands of the Pacific coast states, the officials assured Schumaqn-Heink that it would centainly be an achievement to be proud of tp win a prize in the big competition in these lines that will be on during the exposition.
