Change in the Flag.

'Washington, Nov. 16. Another star
"was added to the American flag this
morning, when President Roosevelt
signed the proclamation admitting Ok
lahoma to the great family of States.
According to promise, Secretary Loeb
immediately sent a telegram upon the
signature of the document to the gov
ernor of the State of Oklahoma, an
nouncing the fact and the exact mo
ment of signature. The people of the
T,.w statu hud made reparations in
advance to celebrate the occasion.
The proclamation itself was sent by
special messenger to the Department of
soa wiiflTB it was nlaced among the
archives of the United States govern
ment. Notwithstanding its import
ance. it is by no means an - imposing
document in appearance, being -writ

double sheet of plain white paper

United States.

New York, Nov. 16.
It looks as though the old fashioned
birch rod would be restored to New
York's public scnools. Moral 'suasion
has been found insufficient in dealing
with the lusty spirit of young America,
and the Beard of Education, at the
instigation of the teachers in contem
plating a return to the sterner methods
of , our ancestors. The school princi
pals are almost unanimous in their de
mand for the rod, but fond parents and
doting relatives have raised such a vol
ume of protest, that the Board of Edu
cation will have to consider the matter
most carefully before taking definite
steps. However, those who -are, m
closest touch with the situation belieye
that the old' motto; "Spare -the .. rod
and spoil the child," will win out.
Society folk turned out en masse to
attend the eighth National Automobile
Show in Madison Square Garden, and
in spite of the stringency in the money
market there seemed to be a host of
prospective buyers. Autos of every
description were on exhibition, " from
the heavy trucks and "delivery wagons
to the most palatial , touring cars. Not
the least interesting, of - the., exhibits
was a$ amphibious auto cart, invented
by a Frenchman. It is an automobile,
that the inveritot,laiiSpsr Will ga with

and now both of them occupy high po

of one ot the largest schools in; the city,

passed a successful examination, and
,- '". ..... . - . . -.- - . j
will be a principal as soon as there is a
vacancy. Of several hundred wh took
the examination for principalsbip, Patri
stood ' second on ' the list. Both men
stand very' high in the school world,
and were very successful as class teach
ers before rising to their present posi
tions.
Of course the one most talked of
eyent in New York society at present
is the approaching wedding ' of Miss
Vanderbilt to Count Jjaszle Szechenyi.
Owing to the uncertainty as to the exact
date of the wedding it has been im
possible for New York's society leaders
to make definite plans either as to go
ing away or for home engagements. In
fact the majority of the dates that have
been marked on the social calendar
have been tentative. However, it is
now believed that the wedding will oc
cur early in January instead of Decem
ber, las the first reports had it. Incident
ally the society leaders are having
some difficulty In " pronouncing the
Count's name correctly. They find
Szechenyi a difficult, combination to
twist the tongue around properly. They
feel it will be nothing short of a social
breach to give it anything but the ab
solutely correct, pronunciation.

At a regular weekly meeting of
Salem Lodge No 36 I. O. O. F. held in
the city of Winston-Salem this week a
movement was started for the erection
of a monument to the memory of the
late Mr. Nathaniel Jacobi, father of the
Odd Fellows' Orphans' Home at Golds
boro. -
Without a dissenting vote a reso
lution was passed by the lodge to con
tribute a sum. of money toward the
erection of the memorial. Mr. Jacobi
died at his home in Wilmington last
week, the burial being last Wednes
day. He was not only the father of
the Orphans' Home, one of the great
est institutions ot its kind in tbe South,
but was a most enthusiastic Odd Fel
low and one of the most prominent
business men of the State.
The splendid work of the institution
at Goldsboro is well known to all the
least bit familiar with Odd Fellowship
in North Carolina. The Homo has
grown from year to year and many
homeless and friendless children have
deen taken in, eared for and equipped
for life's service. The records made by
the children from the institution have
been enviable ones
Several members of the Salem lodge
made enthusiastic speeches in which
they eulogized the life and character ot
the father of the Home.
The following named were appoint
ed as a committee to dratt suitable
resolutions regarding the action of the
lodge rand forward copies of : them to
the press of the State: Messrs. Eugene
P. Albea, W. 'E.- Beck, W. F. Keith
the latter- being the first ineividual
contributor to the monument fund.
- The movement for thisi mouument is
eminently proper "and will culminate
ispeediiy in success; and the ; place fo
the monument to be erected is on! the
bearutiful-eampus of the Home, so dea
to the good man's heart, here in Golds

come and gbi may look upon it daily
and have the lesson of ' his noble life
ever before them to inspire' them to
