I coul l see their eager faces as they looked over the questions und the mo tion of their hands as they grasped tliepn; could ee them smile sulanissively when the dif ficult problems confrunted them pml then faded away as they bent to the task. The words of the song went through my raind, "Keep your hand upon tile throt tle and your eyes upon the rail." Presently 1 fell asleep. When I renliicd p.piin what was happen in": around me things seemed to have changed ns much as they had to Hip Yau Winkle when he awoke from his sleep on the mountain. I went out of ray room and on to the front porch. A carriage was standing there. A voice from within said to me: "Vomo in." I t-aid "thank you," and then went down the steps. The carriage door was thrown open by the driver, and I was helped in by him, who then went to his seat, und iwae driven rap idly over the hills and plains. The country was in a high state of improvement, and wd passed many towns that seemed to be in a thriving conditiou. At last we approached a beau tiful city. I asked, "What city is that?" My compaion said, "This is Kaleigh, the capital of the fttate. What placed would you like to Visit?" Still hiiving a li king for school, I said, "I would like to visit the A. & M. College. As we were being driven there my thouglits went back to the sum mer school at Boone. I first thought ol Mr. Givenc, the baby of Hie applicants who v?,s fortu nate enough to win Commenda tions from the lady teacher who, despite all her scoldings about promptings on class, lecturing about nor cheating on examina tion and quarreling about hav ing to stay in the room with us, when she saw the strenuous ef forts of her favorite pupil could not help but smile and give3ome suggestive hints. Before realiz ing it we were in front of the buil ding. The large round pillars, high arched front and heavy doors showed signs of luxury. A horse with silver firmament Was hitched to a buggy in front of the house We alighted anl started into the building, but were met atthe door by a tall, well-dressed voUrtg man with bt-oWn eves and black hair. A student came along and said: "When may we go to the base ball game, Prof. Greene." I immediately reeoginfced the fea tures of Walter Greene, Then I lenrned that Mr. Greene had uradunted from Yale University and had been president of the institution Tor eight years. Then t snid, "Let me goto the Governor's mansion." Quickly I was driven to that honored spot. After being ushered into the par lor with its tine brussels carpet and Upholstered chairs a light haired woman came Into the room. On conversing with her 1 learned that she had gone to the Appalachian Training School. Studying her face I recognized it to be whom I had known as Ellft PaV, She had grown tired of teaching and had consented td bd the wife of a yctung lawyer who had been elected Governor a year ago, Alter seeing the most impor tant places in this city, my com panion said, "Let us gd to Rich mbhd; ' Glad of the opportuni ty to see w hat had been at one time the capital of the Southern ( onf-derary, I accepted. entered the city something tiny-1 sual seemed to be happening We passed along the slice and heurd pome people ta'kiii. One of them said, "Judge .mines is a; very aim man His judgment is good; he can deduct many things; hi can think loirically; he will know every point well. That name seemed to be familiar with mo. After think ing awhile 1 remembered Mr. Joines who always took so much iuterest in discussing debates on the rhetoric d iss and who sat so quietly as to enjoy the rare privilege ol never having to go to the board except with the most dilHcull problems foi our teacher ot mathematics us firmly believed in wielding the switch as Ichabod Crane to secure good order with the younger pupils; but we all had advanced to the age of applying for a certiflicatc und of tourse it would be too great a task lor him to use that method, so he just kept the mis chievous ones (13 busy as possi ble and then said if we did not behave he would report us to the superintendent who would not give'ns any certificate. With this punishmeut resting upon us Mr. Jcines was seeking a youn wife and the thought of prepar ing a heme for her Was iucuui bent upon him-. After walking around for a white we went to the hotel and put Up for the nigh. At supper a large man weighing about two hundred pounds and sft feet tall, sat opposite me. Beside him Was a beautiful youug woman. I soon knew him to be the Mr. Joines who had gone to school at Boone, lie had grown tired of teaching and had turned his at tention to law which gave him ample opportunity for debating. He had risen successfully and had been appointed .'lidge. Also he had been fortunate in secur ing his coveted prize a wife. Leaving there we decided to vi.-it the Day Cullege. a?i institu tion which had heed built for I four years. On entering the buil ding we were met bv a large wo man ns the poet says: '-She was the gloss of fashion and the mold of form," She took Us into the parlor and then asked to be ex cused for a few minutes. When she went into the hall we heard tln se words: "Girl?, you must be back by 2 o'clock; aa our Eng lish examination beuns th'jn." When she retitrued we realized that we were in the preseuce of Mis Bertha Day. Knowing that English was her principal study, and that her opinion on parsing was always respected, we had as sociated the name of the build ing and her taleut. Later we learned that she had been teach ing in Richmond for ten years. Under her guidance as teacher of English and lady principal, the School had grown in number and When a new building was needed, it was named m nohor of Miss Day. Attracted by the singing of the birds w hile we were out dri ving, we started out of one of the roads from the city. Charmed by the pituresque country wo kept travelling and at last found our selves in the capital citv of Wash ington. Beiug so well pleased with the scenerv it had complete ly taken away that tired feeling which we olten experience in travel, we went at once to tlie" White House. We wcie taken in to the President's offiice. Iasked, "Where is the President?" "lie is ill with nervous prostration," replied the servant weeping. ou may go alia spe mm if you 1 wish."
