MRS. WALL WRITES I About the Teachers Institute Recentk Held At W'inst >n- Saleni. Madison, Aug. -3. I Lave jest returned from inston where for two weeks I attended the Forsyth Teachers' Institute which was conducted by Mr. Edwin D. Pusey, Supt. of the Durham Uity Schools, and Miss Hutie Parrot t, Supervising Teacher of the primary depart ment of the Kinston schools. As 1 was in the primary grade 1 want to speak especially oi tnat which Miss I'arrott has been teaching i\ii" several years anu presents the method of phonics in v. eh an attractive and interest ing manner that it makes one anxious to put it in practice, So advantageous the educators ot North Carolina consider this method, especially lor the rural schoils. that Miss I'arrott didn't have time to discuss in detail any other. She thinks one reason why we find opposition! in teaching it is because the subject has been incorrectly taught. 1 am sure 1 the hint I had of the method is not as it is presented now. It has been improved upon ust as ail the new ideas have: for instance, the railroads, telephone system, etc. Miss I'arrott thinks we should not falter, but porsist despite oppositions in teaching the phonic method. When we are informed that Stokes county his the highest average of illiterates of any county in the State it seems to me that it is time we were getting out of the o'd ruts and trying something new, that which has brought other counties to the front. Tie work of some of the eight and ten year old children ex hibited in our room was an in spiration to me. The drawing and frte han 1 cutting, illustrat ing poems and stories marie me almost wish 1 was a child again so that 1 might be taught in such an impressive and attrac tive manner. Of course those who have a one-teacher s -h > i a ill find many obstacles to su.-mo .n: chief of which wiil b- r :me, but I nope soon to know that there will be no ore-teacher schools and with the moon light sch ■ 1 there need to be no llite-ates in Stokes county. ;.!L> R. w ILL.

In perfect health we hardly realize that we have a network of nerves, hot when health is ebbing, when strength is declin ing, the same nervous system gives the alarm in headaches, tiredness, dreamful sleep, irritability and unless corrected, leads straight to a breakdown. > To correct nervousness, Scott's Emul sion is exactly what you should take; its rich nutriment gets into the bloot and rich blood feeds the tiny nerve-cells while the whole system responds to its refresh ing tonic force. It is free from alcohol. I ■ • Scott ft Bowse. BtoemfeM. N, J, • IN SEARCH OF HEALTH | Thousands Die Needlessly! BY Seeking Health In Other States. • It* -»! It" i: '.'lt'll "f II- .lit ll From ln.nun to mh» consump tives go west every year in search of health. This estimate is based on recent investigations made by the I . S. Public Health Service, t'olorado, ' alitornia, \rizona. New Mexico and lexas are tiie States that attract con sumptives most strongly and are the States furnishing the data of the investigation. The points bearing especial warning and advice to North Carolinians are these: I rom to ot' per cent of these consump tives are hopeless cases and die within six months after their arrival, the percentage of those dying within do days running as high as 13. A large but unknown per centage die in almshouses or are the recipients of charity, and the great majority of these could have been made comfortable in > their last days if they had stay ed at home among friends and, relatives. No one should think of going West or Southwest for his health uniess he has at least SI,OOO above his railroad fare, and can leave all his cares, worries and troubles at home: and nn one should go who is in an advanced stage of tuberculosis or who has not taken careful medical advice. Tuberculosis can be cured in any part of the United States, and it is far better for a con sumptive of moderate means to go to a sanatorium near at home, than to go west and live in per haps a slightly more lavorable climate without proper food or medical care. Change From Debtor !o Creditor Nation The United States has for many years been a debtor nation. That is to say. in the rapid develop ment of the country more capital has been required than our own people could supply. Therefore recourse was had to foreign coun tri-s. mainly England arid France. Those countries invested largely in our railroad and industrial stucks and bonds. The annuai in!~r-st on these securities, ad ded to tiie millions in gold carried to Europe each year by tourists, ab- rbed the trade balance and alway- riet't the United States in debt t - Europe. This fiscal year the aspect of international finances has chang ed. The sum usually carried to Europe by tourists stays in the United States and we have sold foreign countries products of field and factory valued atS2,7'>v">4.V 1 5:Hi. which is Sl,ifi'.,4l-,7!.2 in excess of imports. Since the war began we have sold more to foreign countries an J bought less from them. And so the balance in our favor this year is $623,800,-1 iKiiJ in excess of last year's bal ance. At this rate it should not take many years for the United States to become a creditor nation, especially as the trade balance has been augmented by sums borrowed in the United States by the warring nations. Many foreign financial institu tions have also sold their hold ings in America, in order to get money to invest in their own war loans.—Baltimore Sun. Going Home. ' i From the Outlook.) 1 There is no picture which touches the hearts of men more closely or tenderly than the figure of the tired man or woman going home at the end of the daw The I 1 tierce heat of the sun has passed, the intense high light of midday has sofened into a restful glow, the strain of etfort is over, and the passion of work has given place to the peace of deserted j fields and streets. It was a normal instinct which sent the worker forth, eager and alert, in j the mornintr: it is the response to a deep craving which sends him | home at nightfall. The reward of labor is the rest which it achieves, and the joy of rest is the sense that it has been earned. The alternation of day and night is a symbol of the order of life in which work and rest suc ceed one another in a beautiful and healthgiving rhythm. The worker goes out of himself when he takes up his tools: he returns to himself when he lays them down at the end of the day. He pours out his vitality as the water pours out >f a hidden spring; if he is a real worker and not a 1 mere drudge, he gives himself in the toil of his hand and his brain, and when night falls his weari- 1 ness is not mere fatigue of body it is depletion of vitality. Ilcfore he can give himself again he must rind himself: and when one goes home he rinds himself. To a vast multitude of men the thought of going home makes the heaviest burdens bearable, the most crushing responsibilities a spur to etfort, the most complete 1 surrender of ease and pleasure. not a sacrifice, bat a price gladly' paid for a happiness which is beyond price. The strain of the day is forgotten at the door which opens into the peace of perfect understanding, the pres sure of hours and tasks is relax-\ ed by the sound of a voice which is musical with love and faith . and peace.

CHICAGO. THE BANBURY REPORTER in£ there is not only the supreme reward for the work of the day that is ended: there is also the | renewal of strength and courage for the day that is to bring new strife and toil. The joy of going home is not in the ease and comfort that are waiting there: it is in the peace that :lows from love, the stillness that follows in the tumult of storm, the clear atmosphere in which the dust ol' the highway is laid and the worker sees again the ends for which he is striv ing: in the uuietness of such a home the toil of life is not only sweetened but its spiritual mean ing shines clear again after the confusion of details has vanished. I'nder the heat and burden of the day the strongest man some times wonders if life means any thing but prolonged strain of muscle and brain: in the still ness of home its blurred ends, its ultimate achievements, shine like the stars above the highway when the dust has been laid. The home is not primarily a place for work but for life: work lies below and beyond it. but the companionship which trans forms a house into a home is a sharing of the rewards of work: freedom, repose, refreshment, vision. There are houses full of conveniences and luxuries in 1 which no one is at home: the men and women who live in them are homeless. To such mexi and women, as to the men and women to whom marriage is a mere social contract and the family a mere social arrange ment, there is no going home, no refuge for the spirit, no place of understanding and vision. There are no more pathetic figures in the world of today than these homeless men and women: rest less, discontented, and unhappy, and utterly blind to the tragedy of a life in which there is no' going home. - Mr. and Mrs. James Slate, of Mt.
