Coatatt in tha Afternoon. .
. ' At the conclusion of tba deelama-
tion contest Prof. Boger presented
.;, Mr. W. R. Odell, who introdaced Dr.
J. Y. Joyner, inperintendent of pub
N lie instruction of North Carolina. Dr.
Joyner was greeted with a great out
burst of applause and hia address was
received with marked 'evidences ;of
interest, and appreciation ion the part
'of the audience. Dr. Joyner able
, and learned address was flavored with
a spirit of humor that caused his
-" words to fall happily, on his hear
ers. !"-;'
' Dr. Joyner said, that he abandoned
the idea of making a general educa
" tional speech and would talk on a
few of the points of that great sub
ject. He paid a high tribute to coun
ty commencements and the work of
the teachers in arranging them and
declared that much good was accom
plished by the people coming together
on such occasions. Forty county com
mencements hare been held in the
State, he said. I have attended six
and everywhere I am greeted by the
same splendid sight, which fills my
heart with hope. It is well worth
while, he continued, to have a com
ing together for a common purpose
and for the greatest cause God ever
gave to man the development of the
child. : I believe we should- hearken
back to the old English custom and
set , aside, a day , for recreation. It
broadens men to come together and
recreation fills a need in all our lives.
It is good for another reason -as it
wields town and. county together. It
teaches that the are- bound together
as a comniorf-unit of humanity, with
common purpose, aspirations and
hopes. '
Speaking of the great life , which
. ended in Birmingham, Ala., one year
. t j.fTu;."fi. n'-i- -
ago Monday, ur; joyner said in , a
voice ' trembling with . emotion,
"though dead yet he speaketh." And
Charles Brantly Ayeock, he said with
emphasise will continue to Speak to
the people of North Carolina on uni
versal education as long as the sun
" shines. y ' .
Speaking of universal education Dr.
Joyner: declared; that there can be
no universal education without com
. pulsory education. There are thous
ands of boys in North- Carolina that
it will be necessary for the State to
;- reach out and get.. There may be a
Vance or an Ayeock in the darkest
' hut in Cabarrus withheld from the
light and liis services denied the eom
. munity, State, nation and humanity.
- . ,. Ilis parents may be' blinded -by preju
... dice and ignorance. ' . The State has a
. right, humanity has a right and God
- has a right , to the services of that
elnld. I rejoice that with the six
months school law went a compulsory
education law. " I repeat that there
cannot be a universal education un-
. leas there is a law that Teaches out
" and brings into the schools the very
i children s necessary . to mawe educa
: , tion universal. We are going to en
. force the compulsory education la
in North Carolina. We are going to
" begin moderately and conservatively
but it u going to be dona. - "
r- v Speaking of eity schools '.Dr. Joy-
' ner" said that he; wanted to congrat
' ' ulate the people of Concord on the
- 1 work of their schools.' A citizen of
' - your town,, he said, told me a short
time ago that when he moved to von
cord the value of the school property
: -. was about $600. Now it is estimated
at about $50,000. Such progress is
, . ? indicative Of the progress of ednca-
tion throughout North Carolina in the
" last -quarter of a century. No one
r: 'A'j. . thing has j been - mora - essential in
" causing your town to grow by leaps
and bounds than this. Tba growth of
' your schools has even exceeded your
- expectations until now yoor band-
some school buildings are overcrowd
ed and you need more room and the
eitiaens- will be called upon the vote
on giving , the schools here . $20,000
for increasing the facilities. I" know

Extra Session- Called ta Sariaa tha
Tariff Oonranai Today.
Wasbington.t, D. C, April 7. The
extraordinary aeasion.of the Sixty
third Congress, called by President
Wilson primarily for the purpose of
rensiong tba tariff so that it will be
in aeeordanea with tbe views of the
Democratic administration and with
tba majority sentiment of the nation
as expressed by the voting at the
November election, convened prompt
ly at noon today. The initial proceed
ings in both houses were confined to
preliminary business incident to tbe
organisation of a new Congress.
: In the Senate the routine program
was followed. Viee President Mar
shall ealled the Senate to order, and
tbe President's proclamation calling
the- session waa read. A committee
waa appointed to call upon the Presi
dent and inform him that the Senste
waa in session, and another commit
tee was named to similarly advise
tba House.
- Busier scenes were witnessed in the
House, where the calling of the roll,
tha swearing in of the new members,
the assignment of Beats and other
routine business occupied considera
ble time.
There was a large attendance in the
galleries of the House. The members
gathered early, ehatting and discuss
ing prospective legislation and com
menting on the absence of "Uncle
Joe" Cannon, "Nick" Long-worth,
Sam" McCall and others promi
nently- identified with legislation in
recent years and who were amon?
those overwhelmed by the November
tidal wave..
The personality of the new Presi
dent also formed a leading subjeet of
discussion. Keen interest was mani
fested in what he would have to ?ay
in his first message. Many of the
Democratic leaders, particularly the
close personal and political friends
of President Wilson and Secretary
Bryan, were already familiar with the
principal features of the message.

Washington, April i 7. President
Wilson's determination to personally
read hia message at tha extra session
of Congress tomorrow created a fur
ore among tbe national legislators.
No President .sinea Adams has de

The President's own words about
reading his message are: "I think
this method the only aignified way
for a President to address Coneress
at the opening of the session, instead
of sending his address -by messenger
and letting the clerks read it perfunc
torily. The precedent which has been
discontinued a long while is a very
respectable precedent.".

J. N. Haden and others. While the
applicants pressed him hard . Repre
sentative Doughton made no definite
promises as to who he will support,
though he treated all with utmost
