The body fell beneath he wheels of the ears and' was badly mutilated. Death was instantane ous. The accident occurred about & o'clock a short distance below East Durham. Ferrell and his brother, Jasper Terrell, are said to have boarded the train in the coal chute section ! and Jasper later said their destina tion was Henderson. They clam bered on top of the train for a short distance all went wr 11 Jasper was riding a car or two a head of his brother and he saw the disarranged wire in time to avoid being struck His brother was less fortunate and when-body and wire come in contact the hapless young negro was swept from his position on the car and carried to an awful death underneath the wheels of the cars. One 'of the negro's lower limbs' wasr found a distance from where the body was picked up. Medical aid was called but the f negro wasj dead long ere the doc tors arrived. An arm, a leg ajtfd his head' were severed from the body which was otherwise mangled and torn. ' The death of the negro is the first serious or fatal accident that can be charged up directly 10 ljhe recent storm which visited. Durham and played havoc with the telephone and telegraph wires in- gener'al. The general belief, by those viho are acquainted with that section,; is that the .wrre was torn from its fas tehings either by the storm or the snow and the negro, not expecting to meet with danger from ever head, was not 011 the lookout, ill knew TViilv what struck Herald 8th.

Everyman thinks he is right most of the time and the rest of the time he thinks his mistakes are of course very excusable. And he is so far as he can see. And .they are by reasonable people as long as they are the mistakes of reasonable hu man beings and such as arise from no ill purposing mind. No man would have enemies if he had the same view point as the party wlo differed with his opinion. Can men have different opinions and still be friends? Yes! With certain open and tentative minds people think- 1 .ng very airrerenr. may cunuiwc friendly. Here is the chiet reason why our minds should always stay open. There is so much truth in what the average man calls a lie and so much misleading in what the aver age man calls Truth that one often has difficulty in distinguishing truth from falsehood. Schools in their administration today have all kind of views concerning discipline. Each has its amount of control by love in proportion to the number of teachers who teach through and by, and in proportion to the number of pupilS who will be " instructed through and by love. Likewise severe or light corporal punishment (what the Bible calls "sparing the rod") 'is and will always continue in proportion to the demand made for it. No High School Teachers gets a license from the State of N. Caro lina today who has not studied the child. To know what a child neds is surely the teachers business who ever else may need to know it. Wise men differ as to many many things about theory and practice of teaching, but there is little doubt that the whole of No. Car. Public School Law is based on the idea that "it is a duty to discipline" and that without any limiting adjective "pupils." The purpt se of this much is to show that such is the duty of any consicntious teacher to his state until the law is changed not to arouse any discussion of the writers personal views,.-for they wilt hardly be given except as a matter of business hi private. -?OnHttre other hand a conscientious teaciilrlw fpTO 10VING. vd ... tears falling weemug eyes, pil to have a heart crumpled by fear, no little face witti the sin'les held in like a violet crushed by tin foot of hatred, no overweening young boy in long trousers to be coddled and nursed out of the bot tle of human kindness, and no lit tie soul whose face ripples with love tike the waters of a gay little brook to have the sweet freedom of true and fine conduct taken away. The children of Creedmoor High School are not mere, links in a chain, mere cogs in a wheel, so much gasolene in an auto tank. Thev think for themselves. The teachers think for them too. They ride, but are not jostled or consumed. A few objects people have want ed to see during the past month. More modest boys a nd girls with splendid manners at sixteen. Some oneto tell why certain oeople do not admire President Wilso;i. A cheerful business man who ;s not soured on present situation. A baby that never cries and dosen't resem ble any of the family. A young man or lady who has no fear to be out of style regardless -of parental fortune. These are scarce, but Creedmoor has some of tiiese. The word went out that a play would be given at the school house, Friday night last. People came in spite of the inclemet weather To tal receipts for the jiight $20.05 Present disbursement ; 6.60 Net profit to date $4-65 The fact that people support their s ;hool in such a manner is highly gratifying. It is not the money we make, It is not the amount of tax you pay. But it is the spirit of devotion to your child ren and anything that your school needs you in that is worth while. Your teachers know it and they appreciate it. We thank you, true supporters of the school. Again Monday night by request Uncle Ephriam's Summer Boarders was presented. The people came. The total receipts for that nigl t were, $38 65 Full expense bill has not been re ceived. Receipts for the two nights total $58.76. - Thank you. , What happened last iVeek !

One of the most unusual legal proceeding ever instituted in Guilford county Suje rior Court has been begun by R. C. Prince. He is suing Dr. A. li. Johnson, a local dentist, for the sum of $5,000 damages, alleged to have been caused him ov the de fendant in extracfing a tooth. The tooth was pulled on April 7, 191a, just three yjars ago, it is set forth, and the dentist used a local anaes thetic, supposed to have been co caine or some similar drug. The plaintiff alleges that the needle for this operation must have been un sanitary, as blood poisoning devel oped soon after, and relief was gain ed only through very unusual meas u res. It is stated in the complaint that an operation was made necessary, another dentist cutting through the cheek and removing a po:tiori of the jawbone. The plaintiff alleges that he found a portion of the tooth, in the cavity, although all of it was supposed to have been taken out For the suffering caused by all this, as well as for the unnecessary hole in his face, Mr. Pr ivce asks for the damages named above. He claims that his worth in his work has been mjuied 50 per cent bv tht- trouble, anil this is also included m bill for damages. - THE HOME MAKERS UNION.
