I Of OUR STATE.
I Continued from first page]
o
son College, read a delightful paper
upon the characteristics of the ideal
American. The doctor's style is
dear sad rigorous and bis thoughts
are presented in the best form of
the English language. There wss
not a dull line in the paper, and
when the writer dosed amid the
hearty applause of the auoience,
all felt they had a new insight into
the character, the sspirstions, and
the rsst possibilities* of the aver
age American.
Prof. D. H. Hill, of the A. and
M. College, plsced the associstion
snd State under obligations for a
list of North Carolina authors who
had written books during the past
year. The names of these authors
are a guarantee of the ralue ol
their work and is eridence that
our State is to take its place smong
those entitled to literary excellence.
Mr. J. C. McNeill, who is mak
ing a reputation in his position on
the Carlotte Observer, read a paper
upon North Carolina's literature.
The style of the paper was entirely
original, and strictly his own. Mr.
McNeill said the State real y had
no literature to spesk of. He, how
' ever, permitted us to hope it would
not always be thus.
The last contribution was a val
uable paper read by Dr. F. P. Ven
able, president of the State Univer
sity, on the subject of the "The
University and its Relations to
State History." Dr. Venable rep
resented the State's constitution
ar.d the State University as being
erolred about the ssme time, and
then traced in a most striking man
ner the part the alumni of the Uni
versity hare played in the affairs
of State through all the succeeding
years. He emphasized psrticulsr
ly their participsnce in the strug
gle for the rights of the sovereign
State and that against ignorance.
He enumerated University men
who distinguished themselves in
the great struggle of '6l 65. and
pointed out the fact that one-fourth
of the University men who went
into the war were killed, and that
of fourteen members of the faculty
who went into the war half were
killed. Iffc called the long roll of
Governors, including Governors
Vance and Ellis, who were Univer
sity men. In commenting on the
participance of Unirersity men in
the struggle against ignorance,
Archibald Murphy, Yacniey, Wi
ley, Aycock, the greatest Educa
tional Gorernor, Joyner, Mclrer,
Alderman were among those
specially mentioned. The paper
was enthusiast cally received.
The following gentlemen were
elected officers for the ensuing year:
President—judge R. W. Winston
of Durham.
