COUNTY TEACHER'S INSTI V TUTE Met tin of Committeemen and" Board of Education County Or ganization of School Committee The County Teacher's Institute forJRandolpb will be held in the Aflheboro Graded School building, beginning on the 12th daj of Angus', and continuing for two weeki. Prof. O. V. Wooalej of the Lexing ton G'ftded Schools, formerly of the Aaheboro Graded Schools, will con. duct the work of the institute aad Miss Pearl Cross, of Wake Forest, will assist. These institutes are held every two jears in each conntj in the 6tte and are gaining in popu. larity. Section 4167 of the School Law says: "All public scaool teachers of the State and all high school and graded school teachers are hereby required to attend biennially gjiut county teacher' institute or accred ited summer school continuously for a term of not less than two weeks 'unless prtmJenti. lly hindered; and failure so to at.end such institute oi summer school snoll be caue for de priving and teacher, so failing, from teaching in any of the public scaools, nign tchoola, or graded schools of the Statu until Bucb teacher shall have attended, as re quired bylaw some county institute or accredited Bchool t3 herein pro vidtd." Tbia section of the law was added fa! the lust session cf the legislature. The state department is anziuus foi this institute year to be tha most successful. At a conference of the conductors Ltld jin Raleigh the first of last month, the conductors tesufi.d that by fur the most successful lustiiutts last year were those in which in. teachers had their text books. Tht wa to make our institute the mos. successful is for tach teacher to bring her Lit bk witii her, since she ;a rtqa'r.il to have them, thus savine the cost of new oiej. A few teachers do not own a cop of the book they are trying to twuub. Of course they Ci-'t be the success ful onei; sach le;-.cheis inij fiud tfct books on sale in Ashebcro. 1. All teachers should bring u purchase "McMurrs How fc; study." Tbij book will be oi? st-1-in Aaheb ro. A recitation will be conducted iu t-ia book just be fori noon each di.y. 2. The primary teaahera shul bricg all the books used in the first three grades, a pair of scissors, a bus cf ciayon, and. a pencil conuinirg soft, large lead. 3. The intermediate Uacherr should have all tie text books of the fourth, fifth, sixth and seventh grades; (specially the new Geogra- ihiee, the new history,' (Our Repub ic), the new grammar, (Studies in English), Hydes Book I, Language Through Nature, Literature and Art, and Milne's Arithmetic II. During tbe morning session tht entire body will be together, but in the afternoon two courses will be offered, one for the primary teachers ana tuose desiring to take primary methods; the other for intermediate teachers or those feeling most need for intermediate methods. It is the plan of tbe State Depart, ment to have the County Board of Education meet the committeemen of tbe county in a conference on the last Friday of the institute which will be the 23rd.. Iu order that the meeting may be of the greatest value, that all miy get the benefit of the beBt i bought, experience and plant of the coniniKteemen in their work, several of tbe committeemen will be asked to come prepared t J discus tae loll .wing topics: ' 1. What definite qualifications and what denuite things have you a right, as a school committeeman, to expect of the teacher in your districi this session.? 2. Along what definite lines has tbe teacher in your district a right to expect your active co-operation as a Bcnooi committeemaiif 3. What definite benefits have been gained for the children of your district, as well as the commnnity at large, through the voting f local taxP 4. What definite benefits have been gained for the children of your district as well as thee. mmunitv at large, through the consolidating of the small one-teacher schools into a school with two or more teachers? 5. Along what definite lines can yon as a school committeeman, labor to improve the educational opportu nities and advantages of the children of yonr district as well as . your county at large? ',-. No speeches will be expected, for this is not intended as a speech making occasion; just an informal conference on these important sub jects. We feel that if each commit teeman will do his part this meetipg will mean much for our schools and for our children. - ? , Mr. L. C.

If people will read the precious Book and study its pages more care fully, they will see that God will not excuse them on account of ignor ance. 8ome Bay thos who did the best they knew will be sure of being a part of tbe "Church of the First' bjrn" even though they never heard of Jesus. Yon can fiad plenty of people 1 over our country who be lieve t his doctrine. Bat do the Soriptures support this view? No, they do not teach that ignorance is a ground of salvation. If ignorance will save people, why are the mission. aries being sent to the foreign fleldsr Why did Christ send the disciples two and two to preach tbe gospel to all nations? Missionaries still go to the heathen at tbe cost of thousands of valuable lives and millions of auny. If they all, or even half of them, would be ajyed thnueb ignor vic it isUoicg them a great icjarv to send missionaries to teach cf Christ who died for them; for only ao:ut one in a thons ind believes wnei. they hear the missionaries. It tbis is so, it would be much better to let them remain in ignorance. Why did the Almighty God send Savior into the world? It was to save people of their sins. If ignor mse would save people, it wouli be a good thing to kill all the preach ers, tear down tbe churches, burn the Bibles, and let the coming gener ition all Hvj in ignorance Tue angels said, "Behold, I bring jnu glad tidings of great pv'Whicn shall be to all people; for unto you is born this day, in tbe city of David, a Savior, which is Christ the Lord." What was the Savior foi? To s.ive people, but if they are Sived by doing he beBt they know, they could have lone tbis with?ut Canst oniiug. Since the creation of Adam, there tiave been over one hundred aud forty three billion people born and jnly one billion sived. Someone vill ask, Whit has become of then.? We may be sure they an now ia a condition of suffering b.jciuse in: only do the Scripture tench tl-c full aud complete reward is not iveu to the church uutil Christ comes back. There is but one way to get sal vation and that is through our L nd Jesus Christ, who told Nicodeuiui that he muse be , born again btfore tie could euter trie kingdom of God, the heathen will have to b born again before they can enter there. They will have to believe on the Lord Jesus Christ. "There is lone ot ier name under heaven given among men whereby men must be saved." Whosoever shall call upoa '.he name ot the Lord shuii be saved." The heathen call upon their gods. They think they are doing what is right, but they are not. Tney wfl have to worship the true God and Cill upon Him. "Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, aud thou shah tie saved." Paul thought he was doing right by persecuting chris tians. He would uever have got to heiven if he had gone on prrsecu -ing the children of G'd. He was a guilty sinner in the sight of God, though he turned and became one of G'd's faithful servants. Tbe Calviuista believe that the apathen were not elected to be saved, lod when they die that they go to torment, where they will ever re ma'"n without hope. Tbe Scriptures do not say they were born to be lost. All who beleve and obey Him will 03 Baved. ' Whosoever will, com nd take the water of life treely." I am glad the Lird said, "By faith ve are 8 wed." If many are saved, it will be by faith. They will not work for it. News From Mt. Gilead Mount Gilead is soon to have street lights. The proposed propo Jition which the town now has un. der way is to place ten gasoline lights at such places in town so that all the main streets will oe well lighted. Ic is understood that this lighting system can be operated at a very sural! tost. Charles, tbe nine-months-old son of Mr. and Mrs. W. M. Taf t, died last Thursday night.

Mount Gilead has bad a force of hands on its part of he road for several d tys and all the rough places have been worked over. The Southerner.

Study conditions and build your road suitable to the traffic with due regard to the probable main tenance. Road building and maintenance have been a case of " many men of many minds" with no two roads alike. We are not road craey, we are just coming to our senses and be diming to realize the worth1 of a oo d road . Farmers are getting tired of be ing isolated during the long, rnmldy mouths because of bottomless roads. The highest civiization is only possible in a country where good roads prevail. Good roads attract strangers and make a neighborhood desirable as a dwelling place. . Good roads help business, stlrr ulate. trade, put money, in. circula-j tion and increase values. Without personal care under some kind of a patrol system our roads will always be just like you now see them- Good roads sentiment is now ram pant, everywhere and If it contin ues it will find the money for con struction and rebuildng. Children in many localities have to remain at home for days at a time because the mud is so deep they cannot walk through it. There will be no let-up to the campaign to bring to. the attention; cf both producers and consumers I tbe value of good roads. It is better business to pay In terest on money invested in good roads than to waste money attempt ing to fill tbe holes in bad. roads. ' For generations the farmers of this country have put up with bad roads without knowing what a heavy tax they were on their r&iources. - It Is said that dust collected from the streets of New York City con tains tweve per cent, rublber, iron nine per cent, and shoe leather six per cent After the kicker has had bis easy say, the fact remains that people are crowding to get to good roads and that land along them has been rapidly Increasing In value. The Canadian government has ten dered ten million dollars, at the low rate of two per cent, interest to the various municipalities to Improve tt main roads.' U Is highly Important thatf men who know how to build a good road or . know enough to employ a com petent engineer be electd toth of fice of county commissioner .

His family was distinguished in olonial and revolutionary peri ods. He made a brilliant record in the Civil War, it being said that If Cen.. Lee had been killed, Gen. Hoke would have succeeded him. He married in 1859 Miss Lydia A Van Wyek and she and four chil dren 'survive. The children are Dr. Michael Hoke, Atlanta; Mr. Van Vvhe Hoke, Linolntou; Mrs. W. D.

Z CONSTIPATION IS A - MENACE IN SUMMER-1 y Rrgularlt of Bowrli Vrry 1 m- 4f T portant at This X Time. At no time should people more ciosely watch the condition of their bowels than . during hot weather Summer conditions contribute In va rious ways to cause constipation, but whatever the cause the trouble should be quickly corrected; consti pation, if neglected, leads directly to serious, and often fatal disease- Some people find that certain fro its have laxative effect, but this cannot be depended upon; a mild laxative tonic that will act gently and positively, without griping . or shock to the system, is far prefer able. The compound of simple laxa tive herbs with pepsin, known as! Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, is highly recommendeu as being easy and nat ural In action, pleasant to the1 taste. and certain in its effect. A dose, of Syrup Pepsin att nigh twill restore normal action in the morning, carry ing off the heaviness and bloat. Salts, purgative waters and cathartlei should be avoided, as they upset the entire system and Afford at best but temporary relief. By cleansing the bowels and removing the foreign matter that irritates and inflames the tissues, a spoonful of Syrup Pep sin will quickly check the summer diarrhoea that- is so weakening- Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is sold by druggists for fifty cents a bottle, the large, family size costing one dollar A free trial bottle can be obtained, postfaid,' by writing "to Dr. W. B. Caldwell, 406 Washington St Mon ticeJIo, Illinois. .
