Liberty Closes ^ Successful Year Finals at Splendid Rural School in Alfordsrllle Township—Consolida tion of Hillside, McLeod, Moriah and Raemoo—First Year in New Building—Address by President Wright of Teachers’ College. The last of the commencement ex ercises of the Liebrty gmaolidated school were held in the handsome new building, which is located in Alforda ville township, 9 miles from Maxton mi 8 miles from Rowland; Tuapday morning. ' v r A song by the high school opened the exercises, after which Mr. N, J. McRimmon, chairman of the board of trustees, In a very fitting manner in troduced the speaker of the day, Mr. Robert H. Wright, president of Best Carolina Teachers’ college, Green ville. ‘ Prefers Country Commencement “I was asked when I entered the building why I had driven 178 miles to a country commencement, to which I replied, ‘I would rather drive 173 miles to a country commencement than to a city commencement”, were the speaker’s opening remarks. And in this connection he said that it was especially a pleasure to come to Liberty and see the progress being made within 6 miles of where he made his first mistake at teaching. Mr. Wright did not announce a subject for his speech but evidently had in mind a subject such as “Co-operation, An fSnemy to Discord”. As he said in the beginning, he talked to the grown people and not to the children, but he talked to the grown people about the children, and that drew the at tention of the children. Discord vb. Education “The advance in the price of real estate in t% community is due to the better type of civilisation that livtis here", declared the speaker, as he told in a very interesting way of the development and progress of the country schools. Especially did he mention the fact that discord would tear down the very principles of pro gress and keep, not only a communi ty, but an entire nation in the deep ruts of barbarism, and would not help ; to keep pace with the better sections of the country, where there was no | discord/ In praising the people of the section of the Liberty . school for their fine school building, a symbol of pride and hearty cO-operation, he stated tnat he knew that there was some discord among some of the peo ple, who declared that they just couldn’t build a school house, the taxes would be so high they would be bankrupt. He then gave the com parison between the taxes paid the federal government for discord am. for education, which was 61 per cent in the former and 2 per cent in the latter. “The taxation that is required to build a school is a business invest ment for the community” he said, “but the building cannot educate your child. It takes more than that. You must have qualified teachers.” Foreign Conditions. During his talk on discord being a corruption to nations, Mr. Wright cited his hearers to conditions as they exist in Germany, France, Rus sia and the Near East, where chil dren are raised with hatred in their hearts for enemies. At this point the important question* of international relationship was brough out and he said it is not a political question but a ! cry of the children, who deserve it for-their betterment, so they can live under better environments. The ini tials of the American expeditionary forces which won the war were and is “A. E. F.”, but Mr. Wright has heard that “A. E. F.” doesn’t stand for anything other than “After Eu rope Failed.” Diplomas and Certificates Following his speech, which was thoroughly enjoyed, “America” was sung, and Mr. Wright presented diplomas to the 2 graduates of the high school, Miss Maggie Mae Mc Rimmon and Mr. James Smith. Prof. J. R. Poole, county superintendent of public instruction, presented to the members graduating from the gram mar grades the 7th grade certifi cates, who were: Miss Vera Rajf land Messrs. Neill Brown McCallum, Neill Williamson and Martin David j McQueen. w*# ■» ’ Prizes Following this the prizes offered by the principal, Miss Mary H. Stewart, wore1 presented by Mr. Poole.
