Carmichael has a . been re-eiectea as superintend ent of the Durham schools for another year. He now succeeds himself for the first term and it understood that his election was unanimous at the hands of the school committee. This was done at the annual meeting of the committee. Superintendent Carmichael has been connected with the schools of this city for close to eleven years. He was first employed or two years in the English de partment of the high school, and then for eight years as principal of the high school. When the health of Superintendent Mathe- son failed last year he was given a leave of absence until January. rof. Carmichael was named to act as superintendent during that time. Then when January came on and Prof. Mathesoa re signed Mr. Carmichael was elect ed to fill the unexpired term. This term expires with the end of the present session and the election that has now taken place is for the ensuing year. This means that Prof. Carmich ael is to be attthe head of the schools for another term and that the present policy of the schools is to continue. As the end of the present school year is near at hand the commencement programme will not bo uninteresting at this time. The commencement proper will begin on Wednesday and will continue through Friday night, when the exercises will end. It looks as if the commencement this year will be a very interest ing one, especially so on account of the large number who are to receive diplomas. The first feature of the com mencement will be the alumni meeting held on Wednesday night, May 29, at the high school building. On this occasion the annual address before the alum ni association will be delivered and the speaker for the occasion will be Mr. W. F. Carr. On the following evening the annual sermon will be preached to the graduating class. In the class there are forty-nine who will receive diplomas in this graduation. The sermon will be preached by Rev. G. T. Adams, pastor of Trinity Methodist church, and at this church. Spec ial music will be arranged for the occasion. The class day exercises will be held Friday morning, May 31, at the city high school building. The entire class exercises will be held. The "big" feature and the final feature of the commence ment will be held on Friday night, however, this being the regular commencement occasion. These exercises will be held in the Conservatory of Music. The commencement address will be delivered by Mr. J. W. Bailey, of Raleigh, one of the state's best known and most eloquent speakers. In the past the commencement of the city schools has been held during the day time, but these commencement occasions have grown to such proporions that it is necessary to divide the various features and to give the final ex ercise at hight so that more peo ple can have the opportunity of attending. The city! schools have long been the pride of the DEPOSIT YOUR MONEY ' ill CITIZENS NATIONA7 BANK OF DURHAM. it jttttfttt(ttftfrttttttftfrttttrtr tt tt tt tt tt w tt tt tt tt tt tt tt tt tt tt tt tt tf If tt tt tt tt tt tt tt tt tt tt tt tt tt tt tt tt tt tt tt tt tt tt tt tt tt tt tt tt tt tt tt tt tt tt tt tt tt m NNING, Vice-Pres. .
