Editor Santford Martin at the North Carolina Press Association startled his brethren by his state ment that North Carolina within the last ten years has jumped over ten or twelve states in the matter of education, says Charity and Children, and is rapidly forging forward in this respect. The percentage of de crease in illiteracy within the past ten years in from 18.5 in 1910 to 13.1 in 1920. Illiteracy among the whites has decreased from 12.3 to 8.3 and among the negroes from 31.9 to 24.5. That is going some for a 10 year re cord. We are on the road to the wip ing out of illiteracy and at the rate we arc going a couple more decades will bring us to the goal. We have a fine educational organization and an able man to lead us. We are out of the brush now and the field is clear. Forty years ago there were men of intelligence in the state who openly said the public school system of the state was a failure and ought to be ahnlished: and a great many others felt the same way but dia not nave the courage to say it. Now lay your hand on a man anywhjre in the state who knows b iron a bull's foot who will dare utter so ignoble a senti ment! The .evr school law under which we are working is tho best and most practical that we have ever had. The stitc scale of wages for teachers, while dt may have some objections, furnished the finest in centive in the world for the thor ough preparation of teachers for their work. The pe-sonnel of our teaching force in North Carolina is being rapidly raised. And this means j of course that the schools are more efficient than they have ever been before, for the teacher is the school. We have left the South Carolina neighborhood and kissed New Mexico goodbye for ever. We are out on the highw.iy now and nothing can atop us. With Dr. Brooks in the saddle, where we hope he will be for the next ten years or more, and with the educational spirit growing stronger all the time, the prosper! for a still more glorious record in this census period than in the last, is bright indeed. Education comes high but it is worth the price, and our people have discovered this fact 5 and govern themselves accordingly. The dream of Charles B. Aycock is cuming true! COMMISSIONER WADE BERATES NATIONAL AND FOREIGN B. & L. ASSOCIATIONS. National and foreign building and loan associations, leeches that always come in with the backwash of finan cial depression, despite the very stringent State laws to keep them out, are the subject of a stinging denun ciation and warning issued by Insur ance Commissioner Stacy W. Wade yesterday, addressed to all building and loan organization in the State. Numerous inquires from over the State as to the legal status of these alien organization have come in to the department during the past few weeks and investigation develops that a number of them have been doing more or less Business in we omw.. law is stringent, Mr. Wade says, and such companies are placed in a class with the worst of the blue sky outfits. The State's experience with foreign and national building and loan asso ciation has been bitter, Mir Wade says in his letter to the local organizations in the State. "Their record in this State is a stinging rebuke which they j cannot answer, and we trust that in your advertising, you will take every opportunity to warn the public against placing money jn investments of this character," he says. The only difference between the for eign building and loan and the stock fakir is that the latter comes in times of prosperity and takes the former "follow in their wake catching the smaller fish and picking up any frag ments which their diamond studed competitors overlooked." A flood of them came aft - the depression of 1907 and after that laws prohibiting them were enacted. For colored children of the I a daughter of Mr. Walter Alienor. 1920. same age the percentage in the same interval increased from 08.6 to 81.3. The percentage of children attend ing schools was considerably larger in the cities than in the country dis tricts, the percentage of children in the urban population 7 to 13 years of age being 91.9, while in the rural pop ulation it was 86.1 "Urban", according to the census definition, includes all cities and other incorporated places of 2,500 population or more.

LEAGUE NOT DEAD, EDITOR DECLARES COTTON JUMPING ABOUT. Recently cotton brought 11c in this place and a number of farmers who had held on to a few bales, unloaded. Last week it reached 13c locally and some predict 15c cotton this fall, but predictions don't always come true. Discussing cotton prices or" cotton luck, the Charlotte Observer says: "The cotton farmers in this part of the country have had all sorts of luck with their staple since the days of 42 cents and to the cotton farmer, himself, that lookB a long way back, while in fact, it was but recently. Well An observing public has notic ed that cotton has been on the move lately, for 13 cents is an impelling cause, and one day this week the peo ple of Davidson were interested in the sight of a cotton wagon train carry ing 83 bales passing through the town. Inquiry revealed the fact that the cotton was being carried to a fac tory in Mooresville, to which it had been sold, and that it had belonged to a well-known farmer in that section of the county who sometime back re fused an offer of 42 cent for it and who had been holding it ever since. But here's where luck played him a mean trick. He disposed of the 83 bales a few days ago to the Moores ville mill, for 11 cents, and the very day he was delivering it he could have got over 13 cents for every bale. This farmer has a pair of fists at Hamilton Holt, Pro-League Republi can Says Harding Must Soon Choose. Lake Junaluska, Aug . 11. Calling) upon all true friends of the League of Nations to give President Harding every opportunity to perteet tne sug gested association of nations, Hamil ton Holt of New York, one of the leaders of the pro-league Republican, speaking here tonight at the Laymen'3 Conference of the Methodist Episco pal Church, South, declared that the President soon must choose between I "the nro-Leacuers in his cabinet whom he made and the bitter enders in the Senate who made him.' "Let our political leaders make no mistake,' said Mr. Holt. "The league issue will not be settled until it is settled right. Every friends of inter national peace and progress therefore must withhold final judgment until Mr Harding sees fit to disclose the detail ed plans of his association. But this is clear. If he wants the permanent sup port of most of the American people his association must be more than a mere group of nations agreeing to be good and peaceable and all revolving about a court. Foundation Already Laid "It is inconceivable that Mr. Harding could get the world or the Senate at the present moment to consent to es tablish a better court with wider jur isdiction than the admirable one just created largely by the genius of Elihu Root and already adopted as the chief tribunal by the present League of Na tions. And if Mr. Harding's associa tion is under no compulsion to do any thing except when the spirit moves the nations would be no better off than they are now with or without an asso ciation. "The present league with its forty- nine members and its truly admirable record of things accomplished in the one short year of its existence is well worth preserving. Indeed, it is better to have the present league continue as it is without the United States dur ing the term of the present adminis tration than to emasculate the league in order to get the United States to enter it. Cannot Wait Much Longer. "But we cannot wait much longer, The world is on the verge of revolu tion, famine and pestilence.

That the large bridge spanning the Pee Dee river at Swift island will be completed before November 1, is information that comes from a source whose au thority cannot be doubted.

RUDISILL REUNION The largest reunion of the Rudisill family yet held took place Thursday at the old home place of the late John Rudisill near Lincolnton. AU the children, with one exception, and practically all the grand children, up wards of a hundred in number, were present.

A memorial Service was held just before noon hour in honor of the late M. E. Rudisill, of Rock Hill, S .C, who died several months ago. The Rev. C. O. Lippard, of Crousc, N.

DANIEL BOONE, THE GREAT KENTUCK1AN Daniel Boone was the son of Quaker parents who lived in Pennsylvania. Al though the principal doctrine In the Quaker creed Is that man must not kill, Daniel departed from the faith of his fathers early and he Became one of the greatest Indian fighters in American history. When Boone was eighteen his par ents moved to North Carolina and in the Yadkin Valley of that state, young Boone became an expert woodsman and hunter. Attracted by the tales of a hunter who had croaaed the Appa lachians Into the unknown Kentucky country, Boone visited the Blue Grass state several times until he finally de cided to make that country his home. In 1775 he etsablislied Boonesborough, the first outpost of civilization In the "Dark and Bloody Ground," as Ken tucky was called because It was a bat tlenrnnni! for mnnv tribes of Indians. Boone's adventures with the Indians In his new home were Innumerable. In 1778 he was captured by the Shaw "necs, who admired the scout's courage so much that he was not put to death.

In the early dawn ing of the 11th day of August 1921 the saintly spirit of Mother Eliza Shelton slipped away from the old house in which she had dwelt for nearly 93 years, to be at home with loved ones and God. Apparently when she retired on Wednesday even ing she was as well as usual and no one knows the moment of her depar ture except her Lord and the Holy Angels who no doubt were about her bed to accompany her spirit home, "Aunt Eliza'' as she was so gener ly known joined the Methodist Church South, when she was quite young and lived a loyal and consistent member up to the time of her death; and very many will come up with her at the first resurrection and call her blessed because of the inspiration and help her life was to them.

Her body was tenderly laid to rest in the old cemetery at Bethel church from which many of the saints of that community will arise In that glad morning. Funeral services were conducted by her pastor Rev. Mr Wa'ker, assisted by Rev. Mr. Elliott and the writer of this sketch. W. L. C.

Out there the artesian wells flow with such force that the water is forced direct from the wells through pipes into the standplpe, there being no pumping problem to solve. No doubt this fact would interest a city alder man of our town who has the job of keeping the pumps going to supply enough water for a growing town.
