THE PARCELS POST.
North Carolina To Have Three
Distributing Points.
Washington, Noy. B. The
Postoffice Department has a well
formulated plan for the handling
of the parcels post distribution
in North Carolina which con
templates the establishment of
three distributing terminals to
be located at Raleigh, Salisbury
and Charlotte. Now that it has
been definitely decided to locate
the terminals at these three
points little difficulty is expected
in securing quarters at a very
nominal figure.
At Salisbury the offer of the
John McCubbin Insurance Com
pany to lease to the government
a site on the East side of Main
street between Council and
Liberty streets, for one dollar
from now until next July will
probably be accepted during the
present week. Some weeks ago
John C. Drewry, President of
the Chamber of Commerce at
Raleigh, came to Washington
and advised the department that
Raleigh would furnish quarters
either free or at a nominal figure,
and the department is now wait
ing to hear from the people at
Raleigh. At Charlotte it was at
first intended to put the terminal
in the old Assay Office, but now
arrangements have been made
for locating the temporary
postoffice in that building while
work is being done on the new
building.
A large line of sample shoes
are being offered at wholesale
prices by G. W. Neal at Camp

Educate Boys In The Country.
We saw a friend the other day,
an unusually successful farmer,
who said he thought he would
have to move to town in order to
educate his children; and yet he
was rightly lamenting the serious
losses he wculd suffer in leaving
the good home he had built and
the fine farm he had developed.
And then we put this question
to him: "Suppose you were to
take the money that you will lose
by moving to town and use it to
increase the salary of the teach
er in your country district—
wouldn't it be enough to insure
a good teacher, not only for
your children, but for all the
other children of the district as
well?" And this intelligent
man seemed never to have
thought it out that way at all
before!
It is a great mistake to move
to town to educate your boys.
Important as it is for children to
have good school advantages, it
is even more important for them
to develop habits of industry,
thrift and self-reliance, and
there is a ten times better
chance for the development of
these qualities on the farm than
in town; while there are in town
ten times as many chances that
a boy will develop habits which
will leave him "not fitten to stop
a gully with," as Uncle Remus
puts it.
The country boy largely
escapes these ruinous tempta
tions, and he also has a continual
drill in habits of industry. The
farm boy simply cannot escape
work if he has the right sort of
parents. He must feed the
THE DANBURY REPORTER
horses, milk the cows, look after
the hogs and chickens, and
attend to a score of other regular
duties, even when he is going to
school or when harder farm work
is not pressing.
But it is really difficult to find
opportunities for training the
town boy in habits of systematic
industry; and this is largely why
the country boy outstrips him in
his own home later in life.
No education is worth much
without a willingness to work, a
willingness to do the hardest
sort of work when necessary,
and a five-months school in the
country, with farm training in
the habits of industry, will do
more to really educate a boy
than nine months schooling in
town. As a matter of fact, too,
almost every town votes a heavier
special tax for schools than your
country district even considers;
and if, instead of moving to
town, you will spend the same
amount of trouble and half the
amount of money trying to get
special taxes and special school
funds for your country school
district, you can get thoroughly
satisfactory schools in your own
district.
And, in any case, don't forget
that there is no training for a
boy like being bred to work. As
Charles Kingsley has well said:
"Thank God every morning
when you get up that you have
something to do that day which
must be done whether vou like it
or not. Being forced to work
and forced to do your best, will
breed in you temperance and
self-control, diligence and
strength of yrill, cheerfulness
and content, and a hundred
virtues which the idle never
know. "—Progressive Parmer.

it best not to return, but if
nothing prevents I will preach

Will be pleased to meet my old

delighted to meet one and all

new friends at said places.
