The News and Observe. '
Educational Contest.
Joseph us Daniels may be justly
called the father of newspaper me
morial editions. The News and
Observer has issued more such
editions than any other paper in
North Carolina, in our knowledge.
These memorial papers have been a
most useful and valuable contribu
tion to our departed history. They
introduce us to a peroid and its ac
tivities that havC not been consider
ed by our grave standard historical
writers who have devoted them
selves to the more distinguished
events of our history.
Every North Caroliua student
knows the story of "Mecklenburg
Declaration of Independence," the
Battle of Alamance, the "Kdenton
Tea Party" "the St. Paul's Church
Vestrymans Declaration of Allegi
ance," or the "Battle of Moore's
Creek." Many of them know, or
ought to know who Murphy and
Wiley, the pioneers of educational
work in North Carolina, were, but
who knows who William Bingham
or James I). Johnson or John
Avery or Joseph II, Saunders, or
David Linsay or Bob Lindsay were:
And yet, they were old school
teachers who believed that the fear
of punishment was a stronger mo
tive of human action than a gentle
pat on the head or a moral succes
sion of the tenderest kind.
The News and Observer is doing
this pious work and rescuing from
oblivion names that deserve to live
but seem born to die.
The News and Observer will is
sue an Educational Edition on the
thirteenth of August, we are kindly
invited to contribute something to
to the menu of the banquet.
We wish the space allotted to us
would permit a brief portraiture of
some of these wortny men who
taught the "young idea how to
shoot," but as it is we must say a
few words of memory of Joseph II.
Saunders, under whose ferula we
were trained and who has been our
Death of M.s. Emily

Departed this life on Ve'!nedav

Isaac M. Meekins on West Main
street Mrs. Knuly S. Overb, (nee
Miss Emily Speed) aged abo t fifty
yea"s.
She was daughter of the late Dr
Rufus Kf Speed, to whom si e was a
devoted and tender daughter when
the infirmities of age overcame him
She was useful to her frit nds in
her life of strength and energy
She was a devoted member of the
Episcopal Church, with wh' jIi her
family had been long identified.
Her life had passed t irougli

at their studies just as mitiv mouths

The time is when the world dc
mauds educated workers in every
branch of industry. Without edu
cation a man is handicapped" worse
than he who has no legs or no arms
You who in an advanced agp, hair
white, shoulders stooped, working
at hard labor for a dollar a day may
appreciate this fact. Send your
children to school.
When you have had Ihem enroll
ed in some good school Fee to it
that they study. Don't trust to
tlVir teachers to see that they learn
their lessons. Lessons must be
learned out of school hours. A
teacher has no control over the pu
pil out of school. See that your
children prepare their lessons nights.
Help them, take an interest in them
and try each night to impress upon
them how much the little things
they learn each day will count in af
ter years when they must get out
from "under the parental roof and
work for their own bread each day.
Send your children to school.
By all means send your children
to some school. Don't count the
cost, llemember that you are re
sponsible for these little ones exi
stence and responsible for their fu
ture welfare. If the cost of school
ing looks large look to other ex
penses and see if Home of 1 them
might not be reasonable cut. Send
your children to school.
Mr. Munden On The
Cotton Leak
Mr. ,. C. Munden, of Weeks
ville, in an interview printed else
where in this newspaper gives some
interesting opinions on the recent
cotton leak to which is traced $the
exceeding poor prices farmers
got for their cotton last fall. Mr.
Munden after summing up the sit
uation in a Very intelligent manner
says that if the farmers had not giv
en out information relative to their
crop outlook there would have been
no leak. He advises farmers to
consider this fact and in future
guard against giving any one figures
relative to their cotton crop. He
6ays government employees are not
to be trusted with these figures,
therefore the far mer had best keep
them to himself.
Mr. Munden's words are worth
reading.
