It haa been a comparatively short, time ainoe. any children In the State were given high school educations at public expenae. Prior to that epoch-making Legis lature of 1019, there could be only four State and county supported high schools In a county. This Legislature made it possible to have any number of high aehoola in a county. Wherever there are • sufficient number of children, a high school may be eetabliehed. One additional high sobool waa organised laae fall, which gave several more rural children the opportunity of securing a high school educatton.ATwo of the high schools which have been organ ised for some time will be enlarged thia year, thus extending the ad vautagee of a high school educa tion. And if the plans of the Board of Education go through, 85 boys and girls in Newlln town ship will have the opportunity of attending an accredited high school this year—a high school with one teacher for each grade, and about 55 or more in Pleasant Grove township will have similar advantage. It is not hoped that permanent buildings can be erect ed for use this Call; bnt it la hoped that temporary quarters may be secured. Tbe Board of Educa tion agrees with that famous edu cator who said "Aa la the teacher, so is the school." The teacher is the essential thing. We hope that the plans of the Beard may be earriedoat, so that approximately two hundred more children in Alamance may this fall begin a course of high school education in accredited high achoela.

' City ladies have so many leagues, clnbs and societiee, but one thing of importance is left almost un noticed, that is, woman suffrage, wh'ch, for the sake of the Ameri- can nation should be defeated. The religious world will greatly suffer; it will be the destruction of homee where mothers are sup posed to be the builders and where her place is. -i The Well Kept Cemetery. Good roads, good schools and well kept cemeteries are marks of civiliza tion that go hand in hand, yet there are exceptions where we find new churches snd now*cemeteries, the offspring of old pioneer churches ana cemeteries, that get good up keep, while the old pioneer ceme teries are aadly neglected; therefore, is it not wise for us to think on these things and trace backward a little, viaiting in our mind, or better, in person, snd see if the little citit s and narrow homes of our lore-parents are in that condition which is credit- able to us, considering, too, ths hsrd shipa our fore-parents had in mak ing poaaible the many blessings we are now enjoying.
