iad torn through the roof and ig
nited the feed stuff and cotton
therein. The alarm was quickly

engine reached the scene as soon as
possible. But there was no chance
to save the bnilding, and all effort

Ofcaiac «f Robersonvtlle's Graded
Schools Monday Sept 4 1905.
The Robersonville graded schools
were opened Monday with about
one hundred and eighty children
present. The teachers, Pro!.. John
D. Everett, Misses Maggie Peele
Clara Salsbnrv, Mrs. Maggie Bri
ley and Mrs. John D. Everett were
ready for service. The school was
opened with the hymn "T£jh«»
Work" and prayer by Prof. Everett
who introduced Mr. S. J. Everett
to the school and audience of
patrons, a large number of whom
were present. Mr. Everett spoke
for half an hour on what the school
meant to the community and how
to make it sucofMftil.
Prof. S. W. Outterbridge, who
has been a teacher in Robersonville
for sixteen years and in Martin
county for fifty years was preseut
and stated that it was one of the
happiest momenta of his life to see
the School and Prof. Everett at
the head of it. He had taught
Prof. Everett and knew that his
service meant success to the school.
The large portrait of Mr. Outer
bridge on the wall aud the only one
was truly an expression of well
earned gratitude. It was conspic
uous in its loneliness but showed
that the people of Robersonville
are appreciative of service. Ap
preciation of a teacher as is showu
by this community proves that it
has benefactors add has gone far
beyond sordid ness.
Prof. Kverett is thoroughly
qualified as a schoolman to make a
success of the work before him.
He is a teacher by nature, has had
vcars of experience, is a scholar of
ittainment and a thorough christ
ian gentleman. This is the type
rf tuau necessary to make a school
successful in performing its func
tions. The board of trustees have
selected an excellent corps of teach
ers, Miss Peel is a graduate of the
Kinsey Seminary, of Wilson, and
lias done school work. Miss Clara
Salsbury the inusic teacliei is a
student of the Southern Conserva
tory at Durham. Mrs. John D.
liverett is a, graduate of Vander
bill university while Miss Briley
for the primary work is a . teacliei
»f ripe experience.
With such teachers and such in
terest as was showu by its patrons,
Koliersonville will rank second to
tioue in its graded school.
No town in Rastcrn Carolina
lias grown more rapidly than Kob
rsonville. The motto is "unity
•ind progress'' everybody seems to
'*• organized to end of making the
uost of the town. There has been
ome feeling over the graded school
election but this has all passed
iway and the town is united in its
effort to make Rol>ersouville a to
bacco market and a business center,
flic progress of the town is shown
in its new brick buildings, its hotel,
buggy business and graded school,
vhh the tobacco warehouses as
business drawing cards. The to-
MCCO market has done the work
ind the people are pushing the
iitarket. The Bank at Roberson*
ville has done no little to help the
t'ibacco market and the business
of the whole town and community,
dr. J. C. Robertson its cashier is a
progressive straightforward safe
business man aud has the confi
dence of the community. The
>auk increased its capital stock
from $3,000 to sS,oou when it had
(40,000 deposits which are for m
decess of this quantity now. There
is no better indication of the growth
of a community than its bank de
p>sits.
The people of Rober.sonville are
not only to business but they are
clever to visitors. It has an excel
lent community of soil andjciti/.ens
surrounding and the spirit of prog
.evi, cordiality and business are
what make Koltersouvill forge to
the front. t
The original is always the best
-imitations are cheap. Bee's
laxative Honev and Tar is the
•riginal Laxative Cough s> r|l l'-
It is diffeacut from all others - it is
better than all others, because it
cures all coughs and colds and
leaves the system stronger than be
fore. The letter B in red is on
every package. '"Sold by All
Dealers."
