The highest average was $23.46 peT hundred and the next highest average was $22.97 per hundred. The average for the same seventeen markets in 1934 was $32.18. "B" Best Company In Regiment, Says Official Report "The best company in the Regi- ! ment considering administration and Supply, Training, and Armory and Facilities." This siatement was found under "remarks" in the report of Federal inspection of Company "B", 120th infantry, National Guard, Warren county s military organization, which was sent out from the National Guard Bureau of the War Department, Washington. The inspection was held on April 16th by Colonel Adolphe Huguct, Regular Army inspecting officer, who at that time was loud in his praise of the local guard unit. At xi X i. 1 Uiai nine, iiuwcvcr, vuiuuei nuguct j had only inspected a small percentage of the military organiza tions of the state. Though it is customary following an inspection for the inspecting officer to make some remarks of a complimentary nature, it is quite unusual to find remarks of this nature made a part of a report which is sent from the War Department, it was said. j The report showed a satisfactory rating on every phase of the in- t spection which covered nearly ev- ? ery important part of a soldier's "r j officer's training. ( The unusualness of this report is j evidenced by the fact that this is A the first time during the history of t the present company, and it is believed the only time of any organi- ? zation within tire state, that such j words of praise have been made a t part of an annual report of Fed- j eral Inspection?which is the stamp { of approval or disapproval of the ( War Department at Washington. ? e Local Citizens f *T 1 I__ \\T 1. ; unnuri in vvrecn. ; t Miss Eula Allen and Mr. J.

Clyde Erwin Speaker At Meeting Of Schoolmasters The teacher must learn the type of work for which a pupil is suited and help him to find this work by giving him the proper training, Clyde A. Erwin, State Superintendent of Public Instruction, ;old members of the Warren Coun;y School Masters' Club and other quests following a banquet in the lining hall of the John Graham J iligh School on Wednesday evenng. The state superintendent said ;hat every year pupils are turned >ut of the high schools with no iefinite vocation in mind and as a a esult of this fact people drift into r /arious types of work for which j ;hey are not qualified. The dp- j iression, he opined, came partly as ; i result of this. r Mr. Erwin stated that interest is teen at present in the curriculum c )f the schools but that toe average \ person wished to mould the cur- \ riculum to fulfill his personal fc leeds. One group wants more s nath, another desires more science, r lome emphasize languages and the t jusiness man wants more spelling p, md a better business course, he t ;aid. c Tire curriculum hould embrace b ,wo types of training, the state t mperintendent said: First, Encyclo- n raedia training which gives the :hild some knowledge of all suo- t ects; and Microscopic training a vhich trains the pupil in one par- P iular line. Mr. Erwin said that the school s phould equip students to do work f n special fields but along with ;his special training should go j :nowledge on ether things. He cit- o id an instance of a man who was r irawing $15,000 a year at one time t ind is now living over a friend's rarage due to the fact that he was n :quipped to do only one type of vork and that changing conditions v lad removed the demand for his ype of work, leaving him without < t job and unequipped to enter oth:r fields of occupation. A vocational educational program, not only agriculture and lome economics, was advocated by a he state superintendent as a C neans of finding out what type of c vork students are qualified for and r preparing them to fill the needs in d ;he communities. f The speaker was introduced by f bounty Superintendent J. Edward o Mien. J. H. Cowles, principal of f he Norlina High School, was mas;er of ceremonies, and Paul Cooper, v irincipal of the John Graham b ligh School, was host on this oc- t ;asion. There were around 30 >rincipals and guests present for he dinner which was prepared by | he Home Economics class. ABC Report Was To October 1st g y The auditor's report on the A.
