Of Education
Raleigh, Jan. 4.—After hear
ing Pat M. Neff, of Waco, Tex.,
president of Bayor university
and twice governor of Texas,
brand as a failure an educational
system which does not teach stu
dents the value of character and
man’s duty to God, Southern
Baptist Sunday school delegates
adjourned their fifth annual con
ference here today.
The more than 3,000 delegates
who were present during the
four days of general and depart
mental meetings tonight were en
route to their homes in the 18
states and the District of Colum
bia. The area embraced by the
Southern Baptist convention.
I.eaders of the denomination
who attended the sessions said
the meeting was "a complete suc
cess” and said that it stood out
in the standards of Christian
teachings and leadership.
“Religion must maintain her
own schools,” Neff declared,
“and the business of denomina
tional institution is to provide
an all-round education. Unless
we provide education of mind,
body, and spirit, education may
be a power for evil. Denomina
tional institutions never should
declare a moratorium on morals.

The parents and teachers of

meeting at tlie school building
Wednesday night. The main pur
pose of the meeting was for the
purpose of securing the remaind
er of the money to secure cur
tains for the stage and to pay
tor a piano. Through the efforts
of the teachers and several of
the patrons $105.00 'las been
subscribed in the way of adver
tisements. Not only do the peo
ple seem determined to secure
the remainder of the money for
the curtains, but that the piano
shall also be purchased.
A splendid laboratory equip
ment has been purchased and in
stalled for the science depart
ment of the high school.
Instead of having the regular
stereotyped programs for the
Literary Society each Friday
evening, it has been decided that
every other Friday be devoted to
Pfomibcuoiis declaiming and
reciting by the girls and boys in
order that each and every stu
dent may have more chances to
develop himself along the llnej
of speaking in public. i
As an incentive to promoting I
a higher standard of behavior in ;
school and in society generally, j
.the teachers have decided to pub-1
hsh the names of the students j
in the school at the end of each |
month whose conduct merits it |
exclusive of the grades made in
their respective studies, and atl
the same time give the same stu-j
dent a chance to get on the hon-|
or roll because of scholarship as j
well as of deportment. !
An interesting program will.
be rendered and refreshments
will be served at the P.-T. A. |
meeting. Details and date of
same will be given later.
A play, “The Closed Mouth,’’
will be given at Ferguson high
school building on Friday, Jan
uary 11, beginning at 7:00 p. m.

funds will be equally divided be

Rock and Beaver Creek.
A barn belonging to Mrs. Joel
Minton was totally destroyed by
fire near her home one mile
east of this city Friday night at
eleven o’clock.
The origin of the fire is un
known and it has been suggested
that someone set me to the
barn, causing a loss estimated at
more than one thousand dollars.
The fire department was called
but due to the fact that a water
supply was inaccessible the barn
could not be saved. However, the
flames were kept from the dwell
ing and other buildings.
