When President Wilson ordered j the Secretary of die Treasury to announce that from $J5,UlH)0.lH0 ; to $30,000,01)0 would be deposi- j ted by the Government m the I South and the West, with which: to "move the crops" if that much was needed, he made a "big hit" with the farmers. Heretofore un-; der the Republican rule, "Wall Street" would squeal about the shortage of money, and then large sums of money would be deposited by the Pederal government in the Wall Street banks, and then they would lend the money to the wes tern and southern banks which in turn would loan it for crop moving purposes. I nder the W iison meth od they get the money without paying tribute to Wall Street. We are not apt to hear of any more tightness about moving the large crops of this year, James h. W atson s refusal to appear before the Senate com mittee to answer die Mulhull charges is a very frank confession that the charges in his case are unanswerable. CURRENCY BILL The Senate has been trying to balk at the idea of passing a cur rency measure at this session, but President Wilson has shown them HALIFAX COUNTY. The 12th Annual Educutional Edi tion ol the News and Observer Sunday Hud Interesting Re ports from Many Counties. The following was sent from Halifax county by Dr. A. S. Har-; rison, county superintendent of i schools: "We have four good graded j schools in Halifax county, w hich 1 is entirely rural, one at Knfield.one 1 at Scotland Neck, one at Weldoii ! and one at the rapidly growing j town of Roanoke Rapids. These four schools are now offering a good high school education to over two thousand boys and girls, whereas, when 1 first began my labors in the work in this county, we had only a one-teacher school in each place with perhaps an en rollment of not much over twenty five pupils to the school. The pub lic school property in these dis-, incis at that time w as valued at I about $500 or $600, while now it j is valued at 58,000 and could not j be replaced for that amount. We have two Stale high schools ; in the county, and they are both) doing splendid w ork. One of these ! is situated about twelve miles from j any railroad or town, and the gram- mar school and high school togeth-1 er, are educating over one hundred boys and gu Is. , Mr Smart, our efficient princi pal for last term and again for die j enduing term, lias a nice little larm j which is run in connection widij the school, and he and his pupils don't mind getting out and wotk-; iug to make the good crop that j seems now assued. Then down at lilcnwew, about nine or ten miles from a railroad, we have a local tax district w hich was estab lished last year, where we conven ed a little one-teacher school into a good two, and this year, three teacher-school, with a modern comfortable house w hich was filled last year, and the best part of it is that the people, who before were antagonistic, are now good friends, and all proud of their school, for now they feel that it is their school, while before they looked upon it, as the county school, and not of much interest to them. Again aw ay up in the Farther end of the county, I have a little one teacher school that it would do ; your heart good to visit. The teacher has some how seemed to inspire the pupils and the patrons, and she has not only a good school but a nice little garden where she grows all sorts of things and in structs her pupils in athletics, do mestic science and in practical ag riculture, and you would be sur arised at what they know about seed selection and soil, and meth ods of cultivation, and why certain things, and how you make nature supply most of your wants, if you just know how. W e have several nice houses now in the course of construction which we hope to have ready for next term. And I must not forget to tell you about our county commencement, which we tried this year for the first time. I did not know just how ','" : I: ' ''". i..i-.' i'v-n, s.-r- ' K-oU V7 -1 : The Store of Qu ility. jif f f il titt Uiibtiit uJw " t uait'U ti ii .i li J Honest (joods ft Prices. g I Ni n K I'd R AT I' II it. aa Ait ...nn.fr njMUMiaa ."

However, to my very great surprise, the children and the grown people too, came from everywhere and we had so many people out, that we could not get a place large enough 10 accommo date them. It looked like a coun ty lair and people kept saying, "Where on earth did all these chil dren come from; we did not think there were that many children in Halifax county." Such a good natured crowd you never saw, and every one thoroughly enjoyed the day, and w anted to know here I was going to have the next com mencement next year. We had running races, and potato races, etc., and such good d bates and essays, and while the town schools all joined in and worked and marched as one big school, some of the country girls carried oft sev- ' unTif r eral of the pnes, and these girls i from a one-teacher school at thai, j It surprised the town boys and! girls very much, as well as their i teachers. There was one thing we did not have at our commence ment, we did not have any long speeches. We invited the Hon. W. L;. Daniel, whose heart is in the public school work, to make us a talk, and he made just the kind of talk we wanted; it was a good one too, plain and practical, and that was all the speech-making we had, except from the children, for it was their day. We haven't as good schools all through the county as we want and as we intend to have, but if we just had good roads, it would not be long before we could have good schools, for they go hand in hand, and that explains whyl am a crank on the subject of good roads. I do most earnestly hope that all, who live in Halifax county who happen to read this article, will put their shoulders to the w heel and not stop pushing until we have good roads and a good school in every district in the county."
