THE SEMI-WEEKLY ROBESONIAN 7 BILL NYE DAY. An Interesting Program Pre pared For Its Celebration in Public Schools-State Super intendent Joyner Asks Co operation of Superintendents aud Teachers. Following is the official letter of Hon. J. Y. Joyner, State Superintendent of Public In struction, designating February Z2d as Bill Nye Day in the public schools of North Carolina: To the County Superintendents and the Public School Teachers: The public press of North Carolina has always responded generously and unselfishly to every call of the public schools for service, and no agency has been more potent in promoting the development of these schools and the progress of education in the State. The county superin tendents and the public school teachers now have an opportunity to express their appreciation of this service, and to render at the same time a valuable service to a most worthy cause by co-operating heartily with the "Bill Nye Memorial Committee" in their commendable effort to taise funds lor the erection ot a central or main building at the "Stonewall Jackson Manual Training School, to be known as the "Bill Nye Memorial Building, The committee has prepared an interesting program for the celebration of Bill Nye Day in the public schools. An hour devoted to honoring the memory of such a man, who loved all children and all men, who devot ed his splendid talents to making them happier and better through his writings, will be properly and profitably spent. 1 earnestly request and urge the county superintendent of each countv to distribute these programs to the public school teachers of the county, accom panied by a letter to each teach er, directing the setting apart of an hour in the school for this celebration, and urging the hearty co operation of the teach er for the success of the celebra tion. The noble work of the Stone wall Jackson Training School for giving wayward boys of the State a chance to have a chance to be trained into good citizens should appeal strongly to the hearts cf the children of the public schools, who but for the mercy of God might be like these wayward boys. It is a privilege, there fore, for these children to have an opportunity to make a con tribution to such a work. It will do them good. I earnestly urge, therefore, that county superin tendents and teachers lend their hearty co operation in securing at least a penny contribution from every child in the public schools for the erection of the Bill Nye Memorial Building for increasing the facilities at the State's school for training way ward boys. I designate Wednesday, the 22nd day of February, for this celebration.. I suggest that the teacher devote an hour on this day to reading to the pupils this booklet and to arousing an en thusiastic interest in Bill Nye and his work and in the work of the Stonewall Jackson Training School, concluding the exercises with an earnest appeal for a con tribution of at least one penny from every child to be brought next morning. All contributions should be Torwarded by the teacher or the principal of the school to Mr. R. W. Vincent, Secretary of Bill Nye Memorial committee, Char lotte, N. C, and they will be ac knowledged in the columns of the Charlotte Observer. J. Y. Joyner, Supt. Public Instruction. Fertilizing Grain in the Spring. We have also found most ex cellent results from fertililizing wheat and other grains during the month of March, in prefer ence to applying the fertilizer at the time wheat is seeded in the fall, and we strongly recommend to pur customers, whether they seed clover or grasses or rot, to fertilize their grain crops with 200 to 300 pounds of animal bone or a good grain fertilizer, at that time and run the harrow over it to slightly incorporate it with the soil. The increased yields of grain will well repay for the fer tilizing and little extra labor required. Wood's Crop Special. Card of Thank. We desire to thank the people of the community for their kind ness and assistance during the recent illness and death of our mother. Mr. and Mrs. Walter Gibson. Lumber Bridge, N. C. "After 15 Years I Am WeO" Mrs. Mary Amanda Nash, of Lum berton, N. C, writes: "For years I was a severe sufferer from chronic dysentery, brought ' n by acute indi gestion. It also brought on catarrhal headache which debilitated me so I had to lie down three or four hours each day. My general health was greatly ku paired, and I was weak and nervous, One day 1 had one of those terrific headaches, and my daughter-in-law suggested that I try Mrs. Joe Person's Remedy. I did so, and the very first dose relieved that headache, I contin ued to use it, and for the first time in fifteen years I am well. It is the best medicine compounded in this world." Most people regard stomach troubles (and these include Indigestion, Dyspep sia, hour stomach, Nervousness, etc.) as cf little consequence in their early stages. Never was a more serious mistake made. When the appetite is gone, the nerves shattered, the temper ruined, the body emaciated, spasms ot pain trequent, sound sleep impossible, refreshing rest unknown, they wake up to the fact that stomach trouble is a serious mat ter. When this stage is reached, the only thing in the world that will cure you is MRS. JOE PERSON'S REMEDY. It restores energy to jaded digestive organs, sti.-rr i : a h (y flow of gastric juice, tnu unrigs every portion of the stomach back to normal health. It is a strictly vegetable compound, and contains no harmful mineral in gredients whatever. As a Tonic, Al terative, Blood Purifier and Nervine it has no equal.- Don't permit any disease of the stom ach to go untreated. As soon as you feel the slightest effects of indigestion or any of the other ailments directly attributable to a derangement of the digestive organs, begin at once the use ot Mrs. Joe Person s Kemedy and a complete cure will be an easy matter. If your trouble is of long standing, this Remedy will still cure you but it will, of course, take longer. We want you to write us for testi monials from people who once suffered the tortures of Indigestion, Dyspepsia and other stomach ailments, but who are now Bound and well, and eat what they want w ithout a sign of distress. In cases of external trouble, inflam mation, ulceration or itching Humor, our Wash should be used with the Remedy.
