GREENSBORO, N. C. rAGS SIX - - ' ' - : i I A FINE OPENING Of Greensboro College For Women THE formal opening of the Greensboro College tor Wo men, held Friday morning In the college auditorium, was attended by many friends of the Institution, the exercises being of most Interesting nature. On the platform, besides members of the college faculty, were repre entatlves of the religious, commer cial and civic life of the city, all en tering most heartily into the spirit of the occasion and vleing with . each other in the cordiality of their welcome to the college family teachers and students who during the next ten months will constitute a very important part of the represen tative citizenship of Greensboro. To know that on the opening day the capacity of the buildings is tax ed to take care of those already en tered, and that a meeting of the trus tees has been called to Boive tne pro ' blem of overflowing dormitories, is a matter of congratulation for all con- cerned. It goes to show that the man to whom has been entrusted the re- y sponsibility of guiding this old ana honorable Institution into broader fields of usefulness has not been Idle during the vacation days. He has lost no opportunity of keeping the at tractions of Greensboro and the Ad vantages of Greensboro College for Women prominently beiore tne pun lie. And the result, as noted above, was more applicants than could be accommodated on the opening day Following the invocation fcy.iratn er Betts." President Turrentlne, af ter a brief and interesting retrospect of "Greensboro Female college, founded in 1846. paid a glowing tri hnte to "her daughters," who "had come as one man when the college was passing through her sorest trial making a greater college for young women an assurance." He pointed with nrlde to the handsome new buildings which had taken the place of those destroyed by nre a few years iro. and with greater still to the tvDe of young women among North Carolina's best who had been sent out from this institution to take their places in the various fleias or Intel - lActual activity. Nor was this col lege for Greensboro and North Car nlina alone many students from other atates having enjoyed the prtv i leges of Us broad culture and Chris tian Influences. Mayor T. J. Murphy, speaking for the city, extended a cordial welcome. Mr. J. Norman Wills, representing the Merchants' Association, was most happy In explaining the attitude of the merchants of Greensboro toward the students of the several education- v ; at institutions, whose presence in the city, while meaning much to its commercial interests, meant more in other ways than could be estimated In dollars and cents. He compared the Influence of such environment to a clear and unpolluted stream min gling with the complex life of the city. The whole community was ai- i fected and made better. - That the Greensboro merchant was ud to the standard of the mo representative citizenship and would give the students a "square deal,' was made plain by Mr. Wills, who ex plained that the old idea that mer chants and' lawyers were in the same ' class the class that could not be . trusted was long ago exploded In Greensboro, the city having chosen a ' lawyer to have charge or its nuances, and the merchants of the city having won the confidence of those who dealt with them. Interspersed with ' good stories and timely pleasantries his talk was much enjoyed and was the hit of the occasion. Following Mr. Wills, Mrs. Frank filler, the new dean of the college, was introduced to the audience and talked herself straight Into the hearts of both students and visitors. She assured the girls that she was not there to "boss" but to mother them and asked for their hearty co-opera tton and support. The thought which she sought to Impress was the fact that no two days were just the same that every twenty-four hours held its ' own duties and joys and responsiBii Ities: that each was separate and dis- . tinct from every other day in every other life, and when passed would never return again. The importance of making the most out of each day as it recorded history in the life ot every individual was strongly pre sented, the responsibility of the stu dent still further emphasized by re minding them that only one girl ou of every five hundred In this country enjoyed the advantages of a college education, and that each one who did should remember the other four nun dred and ninety-nine whom she rep- resented. . ' Professor Nicholson, a new mem ber of the fatuity, urged the import ance of punctuality and dilligence based on the admonition of Dr. Byrd who, in introducing himself as their "pastor" during the coming college year, gave the girls some ratneny advice about their conduct and gen eral deportment. Feeling as father ly as he looked, the young ladles to whom he extended the invitation will feel no hesitancy in calling on him whenever they are in trouble. The announcement by Mr. Ben nett about registration and classes marked the formal opening of the new school term, begun under con ditions most favorable and gratify- New members of the faculty are Mrs. Slier, dean; Prof. Mortimer Browning, organ department; Miss fJertrude A. Urban, piano; Miss Mar ! 1nria Gaskins. piano: Prof. D. F. Nicholson, science and education Miss Flora Hall, assistant in colleg iate department; Miss Maude Moss, xnression and physical culture, as sisted by Miss Bessie Alderman, pia no, and Mr. D. Walter Smith, history of music, both of Greensboro. ' Campaign Started. Chairman Warren, ot the Demo cratlc Committee has opened head quarters In Raleigh and of course the far famed and noted Yarborough iintai headauarters. Mr. Warren ' An not expect any treat excite ment, but he will he on the Job and take care of any weak places should A GREAT SUCCESS. f King's Buslneas College A Great In stitution. : We were in Raleigh a tew weeks ago, and among oiner minga dropped Into King's Business College and looked over the building . and were surprised at the completeness of the plant. The King Business College runs two schools one at Raleigh and one at Charlotte. This business college has graduated hun dreds of young people has sent out Into the business world people equip ped to do business, and it is grant ing to state tnat eacn year wuuesoeo Increased numbers In attendance, which shows that King's Business PRESIDENT J. H. KING. College stands well wherever known Mr. J. H. King, President and Super intendent, has given his life to this work. He has been successful he has bullded a school of standing, and while his enterprise is private he has done much for his state. The man who devotes a life to teaching youth in fitting young men and wo men for their place in the business world, is a benefactor, and while of ten he gets but little financial re wardhe knows he has done some thing worth while. The King College has been a success in every way and when Mr. King completes his life work he will feel satisfied because he has made a financial success of a worthy cause. The Morganton State Hospital. The board of directors ot the State Hospital located at Morganton held their quarterly meeting last week, and report of Superintendent John McCampbell showed that there were 1,328 patients on the rolls of the hospital at the close of the quarter, August 31st B51 men and 777 wo men. The quarter began with 1,421 on the rolls 602 men and 819 wo men. Forty-five were admitted dur ing the period of three months 19 men and 26 women. The number discharged was 121 62 men and 59 women and 8 men and 9 women died during the quarter. It Is ex plained that the difference between the admissions and the discharges and deaths Is due to the return of patients who were out on probation These, with the admissions of new patients, keep the institution filled to Its capacity at all times. Tom Looks Like Natural. We had the pleasure of looking into Tom Bost's face in Raleigh Tues day. Tom has been across the deep blue sea, had his pocket picked and came home a bloomin' suffragette. He is going to do white and black stunts on the Greensboro News under Raleigh date line, and what Tom writes Is the stuph. Professor Scott-Hunter. A notable addition to Greensboro music circles has been made In the appointment of Professor Scott-Hun ter, of P.urlingtpn, as professor of harmony, counterpoint and organ In the music department of the State Normal College. Professor scott- Hunter K one of the most brilliant organists in the South and his com ing is expected to add mucn to me musical life of the city. No war prices at this store.
