secretary reports 'furty present dent of the Kacdolph and Cumber-
at the meeting. Many of those p res
ent came from the eastern ends cf
the country. Those nearer Concord
.et and the end had . been expected showed a greater number of absences
lor the past several davs. At
bedside when the summons came were
Mr. and-Mrs. Peter Marshall Brown,
of Charlotte, Mrs. Brown being a
daughter, and Messrs. F. Clare Pharr
and W. Davidson Pharr, sons of the
deceased. Mrs. W. L. Moore, of Mo
bile, Ala., another daughter, was en
route to her father's side when the
end came last night. She had only
left him ten days ago. and was sum
moned as soon as grave fears were
entertained. The funeral will take
place Thursday afternoon at 2
o 'clock.
Dr. Pharr had served in the Pres
byterian ministry ever bince his"
young manhood. For exactly fifty
years he ministered to the old Center
church congregation, one of the most
rotable in this section of the State.
He had always manifested a keen in
terest in all things pertaining to the
welfare of his people and exerted a
powerful influence throughout all of
his life. For the past twenty-five
years be had made his home in
Mooresville, which is only about 'three
miles distant from Centre church. It
is safe to say that there was no min
ister in the State better known or
more universally beloved.

the importance f of every contractor
securing "a permit before beginning
work on any house or building." He
tated to Building Inspector Dorton
that under the law a! contractor was
liable to a penalty if he failed to se

gramme, as published, was carried
out with the exception of the paper
to be read by Miss Nina Cook. She
was absent.
The discussion bv Mr. W. J. Wed
dington of -"Memory as a Factor of
Study,' was able and thoughful. His4
main thought was that mere memoriz
ing did not amount to much and that
memorizing that was the '.by-product,
of thought had an educational value.
That a person might be able to re
peat rules and definitions and yet not
be able to apply them.
Mr. James Gourley read a live
and. interesting paper on "Organiza
tion of Ideas." He said that teachers
did not separate the important from
the unimportant in theVlesson. That
almost as much prominence was given
to unimportant as the important
facts. The child in such instances
would be at a loss to know just what
to concentrate his thought and" atten
tion upon. A proper recitation would
have one or more principal facts
around which the teacher should
gather a many of the unimportant
as he would be able, but never should
the main facts fail to be given prom
inence. .
Miss mma Erv.in's paper on
"How to Make the Work Practical."
was listened to with a great deal of
interest. It gve us some ideas how
we might apnly a history or geogra
phy lesson in actual life! x
The recitation conducted by Prof.
Webb dealt with the teacher and his
work. The conclusion " reached was'
ht to go oetpre a class as teacher
not even a primary class without a
preeious study of the lesson to be
taught and that no teacher was able
to assign a lesson for next day 's work
without study of the lesson to be as
signed. Jail Sentences to he Given Hereafter.

"I've tried fines; they don't work.

ter or needed medical attention, ac- room, "had . better get in out of the
land Uaiiroad in Moore county, and
is tlii.roughTy familiar with the pro-,
posed routes of the Norfolk South
ern. ". In an interview with a repre
seiAative of this paper Mr.
Mr. Caldwell was until recently proi
ment concerningihe proposed routes:
"Severn! years ago when identified
with the Moore County & Western I
took up the rights of way from Con
cord to Pee Dee river via Georgevilie,
Locust Ixnel and Norwood. The sur
vey was made by II. L. Thurston, a
competent engineer. From inspection
of the survey and travel over the
route I am familiar with the. country
between' Mt. Gilead and Locust
LeveL
"While endeavoring to build a rail
road from Concord to Troy I person
ally conducted Mr. A. X. Wales worth,
a prominent engineer, formerly con
nected with the Canadian Pacific,
over the line from. Concord to Mt.
Pleasant, thence to Albemarle and on
to Troy. We used an aneroid barom
eter and made note of the levels all
along the way. Leaving the present
line of the Aberdeen & Ashboro at
Vestal, three miles this side of Troy.
Mr. Walesworth located -a , very, cheap
line to Uv.harrie river, one mile bove
the mouth. Thence the line went
through a dip in the hills to the Yad
kin just above the lower falls. From
that point to Albemarle was easy
grade. From Albemarle to Mt: Pleas
ant was the heaviest grade, but ' it
was .no worse than we found near
Rocky River Springs. From the
above- investigation of the two lines.
1 think Concord may safely disregard
the rumors that the Norfolk Southern
will go from Mt. Gilead to Charlotte
and leave, Concord off the main line.
I am satisfied that via Albemarle and
Concord is the cheaper route, and
even if it were to cost $200,000 more
the owners of the Norfolk Southern
could net afford to miss Concord.
Having spent more than two millions
in the purchase of existing lines and
being backed by ample capital it is
certain that they will come to Con
cord, a city that is the biggest town
with only one railroad in the
South."
Mr. Caldwell is now living at Dav
idson having recently -moved -there
from Moore county. He will proba
bly locate in Charlotte for the prac
tice oilaw in a short time, but his
family will continue to live at David
son. Mr. Caldwell recently returned
from a trip to Moore county and stat
ed that the change of ownership in
the Aberdeen & Asheboro railroad
was complete, the fact even being
noticeable on the engines which car
ried the name of the road, "Raleigh,
Charlotte & Southern."
