GREAT TEACHERS ASSEMBLY. Will Meet at Greensboro Next Week June. 13-16. The City Is Ready tor the Teach ers and can Accomodate 2,500 of Them. . 1N? w8 unj Observer.) On Tuesday evening of next week there will be gathered iu Greensboro the greatest assem blage of teachers ever one North Carolina city at the same time, and the progressive city of Greensboro has prepared to take care of as many as 2,500, it I being known that the most I btilliunt array of speakers everI engaged to address a Southern educational meeting of this chai acter will be present. County. superintendent of education in more than half of the counties of i North Carolina have already written Secretary Carmichael that they will be present, and accomodations have already been reserved for nearly a thous and of the State teachers. The faculties of the leading colleges and the University of North Carolina will be present this year almost to their full membership. The attendance of city school teachers and the teachers from private high schools and acade mies will be unprecented. Secre tary Carmichael states that one of the most gratifying features of the outlook is the interest which is being manifested among the teachers in the rural schools. The attendance from these schools alone will make a large meeting of the assembly Mr. Carmichael has already received letters from more rural school teachers saying that they will be present that the entire enroll- j ment of the assembly has ever been since he has been secretary, j There is no more hopeful phase of the prospects for great pnv gress in the future than the con dition which these facts reveal. The rural school teachers are a live body of people, and the meeting at Greensboro will show to the State that in this class of teachers North Carolina has a wonderfully effective and efficient force of men and women, who are thoroughly awake to the best interests of their profession. Never in the history of the State have such preparations; been made. Those who have traveled the State recently and talked with teachers and men of every other profession and of business interests declare that there was never so much interest manifested and never such a de termination to make any organ ization a success as among this association's members, now that the character of the organization J is to be along professional lines i instead of a pleasure gathering largely. It is settled that the Teachers' Assembly is to be in future to the teachers of North Carolina just what the bar as sociation is becoming to the lawyers and the medical associa tion now is to the physicians. This, all educators declare, is the ideal character for their or ganization. Teachers through out the State realize that the| time has now come when a more I thorough and efficient profes- ; sional organization of the State's educational workers is absolute ly necessary for the educational welfare of the Commonwealth. That the more prominent of vthe State's educators have deter mined to lend all their efforts to make this organization what it | should be there is no doubt. All have co-operated with the officers of the assembly in securing the most prominent speakers ever in the State. As an evidence of the value of the program, many educators have written Secretary Carmichael congratulating him upon the program. Some of these letters are quoted herewith prof. caklyle'g view. Prof. W. 1). Curmicbael, Dur ham, N.C. Dear Sir: The published pro gram of the forthcoming session of the Teachers' Assembly gives promise of a meeting of rare pleasure and profit. I think the time is ripe for a more compact efficient organization of the teachers of the State and trust that such organization may be one of the results of the ap proaching meeting. J. 1$.

My Dear Sir: The State is to be congratulated upon the fine program of the Teachers' As semblv, recently published. It ought to bring together from the 13th, to the lGth of June the largest und the most influential gathering of teachers and educa tional workers ever assembled in North Carolina. The North Carolina State Teachers' Association ought to have two or three thousand per manent members who would make it possible for us to have a great and inspiring education al gathering annually at con venient points in the state. I congratulate you and the Executive Committee upon your successful efforts in this direction. Yerv trulv yours. CHARLES I). McIVER.

Congressman Llttlefleld on Main Maine has in her savings banks $95.22 for every inhabitant. Illinois has only $13 43; Ken tucky, none; Ohio, $10.71; Penn sylvania, $16.72. These figures are made more significant by the fact that during the last two decades the accumulations of Maine have been sent to the West for investment steadily, continu ously and relatively to her means, in a prodigious amount. In these investments losses have been heavy. Notwithstanding this, her savings deposits have increased $40,000,000 in the last 38 years, and while her popula tion since 1850 has increased only twenty per cent., her valua tion per capita has increased 252 per cent. From 1850 to 1890 the percen tage of paupers increased in Illinois 176 percent.;in Kentucky 173 per cent; in Ohio, 138 per cent.; in Pennsylvania it remain ed practically the same, while in Maine the percentage has decreas ed 145 per cent. Massachusetts is nearer to Maine in location, and in social and moral condition may be thought to be more nearly parallel. She is a local option State, with license as a rule in her larger cities. In 1898 she had 7,454 prisoners, or 33 for every 10,000 people, while Maine had 841, or 13 for every 10,000. Illinois paid internal revenue tax per capita, $9 20.

Kenly Academy closed a most prosperous year's work with the commencement exercises which hegau Wednesday, night, May 24th, with the exercises by the primary and intermediate de partments.

Each one acquitted himself or herself with credit and gave proof of the untiring efforts and patience of their teachers, Misses Emma Matthews and Julia Mc Eachern, in training them. It would take too much space to mention all the little folks who deserve special recognition. But nothing was enjoyed more than | the Brownie Drill by 16 little i boys ranging in age from 6 to 10 years. Tbey marched with as much precision as well-drilled soldiers, and received prolonged applause. The Floral Drill by 20 girls was also very beautifully rendered under the direction of Misses Emma Matthews and Fan- j nie Freeman. That they, most ly eight-year-old girls, were able to go through the many difficult movements of this beautiful drill without mistake was hard to comprehend. Thursday morning the weather was ideal and early the people began to arrive from far and near until the house was full to [ overflowing long before the ar-1 rival of the hour for the exercises to begin. The people were enter tained with a few selections by j the Italian Orchestra. After prayer by Dr. I). A. Long, of Graham, Prof. Sipeintroduced Dr. R. T. Vann, President of the Baptist University for Women, of Raleigh, who preached the commencement sermon. His theme was "The Life of Christ," beginning with His temptation in the wilderness. He set it forth as an example and model for those who are just leav ing school and entering upon the duties of life to follow. He ad monished them, when tempta tions assail them?as they surely would?to then do as Christ did in His temptation in the wilder ness, to take hold upon God and yield not to temptation. His discourse was very interesting and instructive throughout and was greatly enjoyed by all who heard it. THURSDAY AFTERNOON. At 2:30 the house was again full and after music by the or chestra Prof. S. M. Smith, of Raleigh, in a few well chosen words introduced Rev. 1). A. Long, I). 1)., LL. D., of Graham, who delivered the annual address. His subject was "The Forces of the Universe." I)r. Long is one of the leading educators of North Carolina, a man of high aud scholarly qualifications, as shown in the mariner in which he handl ed his subject. It was one of the best addresses ever delivered here and was thoroughly enjoyed by all present. This part of the exercises was followed by a free concert by the Wilson Italian Orchestra, one of the best in the State. Later the Keul.v ami Lucaroa teams played a good game of baseball, resulting in a victory for Keuly, t be wore being ."> and 1. THURSDAY NltillT.

They showed the excellent and efficient training they had received under their teacher, Miss Lillian Ayers. The Pantomime, Rock of Ages, was faultlessly rendered by twelve young ladies and received pro longed applause. The best of interest and at tention was given by the audi ence in the beautiful solos and choruses. They were one of the best features of the exercises. The essays by the Society Rep resentatives were all very good and showed that much work has been put upon them, They were enjoyed very much by the large audience present. No medals were given, as the management of the school did not approve of giving medals for this purpose.
