Lat er ia the day thl» lerton ww dl» tiiesed *ory fiwly In a round table conference and all the UUOD POINTS tHe teacher made in the recitation were orsnuiixed and it*final plan put on the beard. The entire force uf tuial teachcra were in freat praise of Uie work done at the Kara» Life Rchool and went away fooling thai they had been given the opoortunity to toe the representative auDjectt in the Courte of Stady taught wltn a «l"I.Tee of iklil and eBciency. ΓΚ L. A William* o« the State i'niveraity proved to be an indupcr» nbl: bleulng throughout the con'er < m. Not only did he difcuw the Jiitrtlcal methodt of teaching hi.tory, · h·iihmetir, spelling, and language that, v.oild minister more effectively to the ' native intarcsts and cvery-day need* r' the children, bet he also oasisled the teacher* In laying down certain principle! In the making of a daily r -Vicdulc and Othee nmi.UuiJ 1U>· - f ichool work. His inftLrurtion* *erv always such thwt could be pat into nro.rtii'e and much food wan derived frrm hit coming. To further uilit th* teachers in their work of organization, Prof. 1.. C. Brogdcn, State Rural Supurvisor, look up the nll-lianotant topic of pru i!ntioo and classification and mad* it clear to all that this part of the wnrk should not bs slights*! A lhrelr discussion followed ia which many different problems were settled. Later Prof. Brngdea and the teachers work ed out the retentis Is that · GROW ING TEACHER should possem. It is hardly possible Ujat the teaching fore* in Harnett could leave that meeting without the d**lr* and delor mination to bocome a real, lire, prov. inr teacher being arouwd within tben. Oa Thursday Miss Elizabeth Krlly. Commiasloner of Adult Illiteracy in the State, interested those present In the rédaction of adult illiteracy la our own county and gave definite plana for organising the work la oar rural schools. "No illiteracy in North Caro lina ia 1820" ia an cxeellant slogan for the "Old North Bests" At this; meeting the work of the Coustry Life ! Club waa outlined aad explained with j Miss Kelly's help. Such a club was declared neceaaary if the Rural School I provided for the social aad cultural . alalia and Interest* of the people. Misa Ma ad Barnard, of Raleigh, closed th* I dlaeuaaktn by talllag a ι splendid r. Th* ρ The conference can* to a (Ittinc cloe* on Friday, when about seventy 8re committeemen, all of th* rural teach*rs, and the entire Beard of Edu cation came together in a joint sc* sien to talk over various school af faira. All seemvd eager to tell of their school. Some could hardly wait to un of the advantage· that local tax, community cooperation, wide awake teachers, splendid equipment, etc, had done for their school. While others, srho were conscious of their needs did not hesitate to let them be known. At the close of thia free, open discussion. Prof. Brogden arked this question for the consideratien nf all: "la a 1-arger Type of Rural School Needed in Harnett County?" After some astonishing, relative to ear onc-tcscher school proposition, had been put forth and ditcusmd at length, those present were compelled to agree with the speaker and anrwer. this vital question poeitivsly. Pood I Conservation waa too important to' be overlooked ; so Mr. Chan. Rojs pre-1 sented this matter to the teacher»·. and enlisted their help in registering th· house wives of the county daring • th» coming week. Then Dr. Witliame gave in brief but forceful way the dflty of the IrWl 4. ti a erinii. After the important ino\i»ct mcnt for Ik y»sr'» work were maHe, the Leach·Γ» wtrt takm to lk*ir re Kpretiv« tchool communities by the committeemen It wa» an lnVtHon to not· tht large number or cnthualasttc school truiteea and we command than· for tbalr loyalty and iplendld cooperation to the kImoI IllUIW' I».*** county. Out of the 67 arhool dbtrtcta, there were only IS not represented by a committeeman. That i· a n«e record nnd it nuit be very sneoura*inc and gratifying to the educational staff, who are laboring hard to better the school conditions in Harnett.

BARGAINS AT BUTLER'S Γ · -· · , .·. -V Biggest Stock Ever at Our Stores THE NEED for careful buying was never more real than now when the coet or everything needed for the home and farm has reached a new high leveL The dollar of 1917 will go hardly a third aa far aa did die dol lar of 1907. Cotton at 25 cents, exchanged for other goods, means no more to the farmer than did the β cents cotton of ten years ago. To atretch the dollars of today over as great a buying area as he can, the man of this time must spend those dollars where they count most. All of our purchases for the last several months have been made with present conditions plainly in sight. We bought while the buying was good, with the result that we now have the largest stock ever put in our stores at prices that cannot be equaled by merchants who bought too late. Our stock includes furniture, carpets, druggets and rugs, kitchen furnishings, household goods of all kinds; guns, pistols, rifles and ammunition; watches, clocks jewelry; bicycles, bicycle parts and tires. Ford accessories and uto tires; Sentinel roofing in one, two and three-ply —the three-ply guaranteed for 10 year»; wire fencing for farms and poultry yards; pumps and pump parts, hemp rope; window glass; sewing machines and a wide variety of other things allied with our lines. We have some rape rial bargains in dinner sets, Crex ruga and druggets, stoves and ranges, and our stock of brooms, chins ware, glass and enamel ware is worth com ing to see. And you should examine our Une of maltiuss es and springs before making a purchase elsewhere. Our sewing machines are the Free and the White—none bet ter anywhere. We have, too, a number of second hazld machines of different make in excellent condition. These can be bought very cheaply. All of our bicycles are stand ard makes. We carry parts for them and operate a first class repair shop in connection with this department We will be more th%n glad to serve you at any time and in any way. Be sure you come to aee us when in town. * γ*1*'' yy i' DUNN, NORTH CAROLNA. UMNJMA PHOTO COMPANY W. A. GufN, ι All atyto «olarr*! paruait· «■* IWi II. Dm, X. C ■·········# 1 FHOMB: Day.
