EDUCATION AND WAR STRENGTH. Intelligence based upon edncation has always been held as an important factor in the strength of a nation even when engaged In war. This educational strength hss been specially noted and credited to Amerl can soldiers, on land or sea, for even with commanders killed in the ccnfllct, there were men from the ranks who quickly came forward, gifted with the genius of leadership, because of the edu cation which they had received !n school or college. And this educational ability of the American has brought him forward and kept him in the front rank among na tlons, whether it was In war.or in- trade or manufactures. The success of Japan against Ruisla Is being credited very largely to that na tion's intelligence gained through its educational methods as given Its peo pie. The records show that the average attendance in the public schools of Japan Is very large, in 1902 It being 5,625,000 out of the nation's population of 44,000, 000 Inhabitants, this being an increase from 1804 of 8,290,813. And durlDg this same period the number of public schools In Japan has increased from 25,404 to 29,3253 and the number of teachers from 67,683 to 110,104 Up to this time Japan has been giving its male population the greater advan tages, ninety per cent of it 3 teachers being men, and of the pupils In attend ance over 70 por cent being boys. It Is Bald that the number of girls in attend ance Is now very largely on the increase which will soon bring up the female pro portion of attendance in the schools to that of the ma'.e. In all the records of the battles fought on land or sea, Japan has proven the value of having an educated popu lation, and the result Is proving In this as in all things, that education is the great factor which makes winners In all contests In the world. WORLD'S FAIR MEETS ALL ITS EXPENSES. There Is no one in the country who will not be glad to learn that the World' fair at St LouIb, has reached the point of more than meeting all Its expenses. These great expositions are always money losers to the cities which have them, but the advertising received Is considered more than an equivalent for the financial loss Incurred. The announcement that the manage ment of the Exposition at St Louis, or as It Is technically known the Louis lana Purchase Exposition, will not have to use their local banks to meet its obli gatlons, shows that the exposition has passed into safe waters, and from now until the end will likely have easy finan clal sailing. The exposition's obligation to the gov eminent for Its loan of $4,600,000, was secured by a preferred lien on the gate admissions. On September first the total amount returned to the govern mont will he $2,408,149 and every fifteen days thereafter $600,000 Is to be paid until November first, when the entire loan will be paid. The million dollar loan which it was thought a few weeks ago would be ab solutely necessary to be made from St Louis banks, in the light of present re ceipts, is not likely now to be wanted, for the gross receipts for two weeks past hare averaged $75,000 per day, against all expenses which Including the irovernment demand, are $66,000 per , . . .... fl day, and this indicates a healthy finan- clal condition. There will be only satisfaction from evarv side emressed over this showlne. and the St Louis people deserve con gratulatlone that it is so, for their ef- ..... . ... fori to ghre the world this splendid ex - hibition of all world's products, means j, ...... 1 at.. - ,v .. wonderful future benefits to the educa- tlon, therefore the drills stlon, of all aat ions. This Is an exposition no oae ml $ seeing, for no donbt it U the last ch. aoa the present generation will hare to witness sach a gathering together of wcrld's products. TIE LOCAL ALL PULL TOGETH ER MOVEMENT. There are people In somecommaaltles who will ascribe dull times, no commu nity growth industrially, and the lack of local business prosperity, to the home newspaper because it does not of Itself alone, boom its town and so attract peo ple and new enterprise!. The fact is that the newspaper while Us Influence can and should be a forci ble one, is but one of the business agen cies of a town, and unlets it receives Its community's united sapport, It can not prove the Importsnt factor in local development, which it would be, if It did receive this full and just support of its people, and the business interests which are to profit through its help. The locsl newspaper aids in uniting the commercial, Industrial and educa tional interests of a community, but assistance is only valuable when the suggested aid, or arguments favoring lines of local action, which mean local unity of thought and endeavor are act ed upon by tie people in the common ity. Community of Interests are only served when the people get together, when the pull towards Improvement U a united one, one all together, not a pull of a dozen or two score citizens with all the rest of the citizens looking ldlyon.an'l offering discouraging re marks. Community growth is only attained In the solid, substantial way when all the business agencies of the place pull to -ethtr. It Is then that real progress i-. sean and an improvement is made, that la irresistibly forward and 1 pward In character. The record ' every great city proves that the all igether pull movement ii the one h!ch made them great. A L N C IMPROVEMENT. rw Cross Ties and Heavy Kail Will Take About One Year.

R B How land the leasee of the Atlantic & North Carolina Railway arrived here this morning. All the talk about there being any further bitch In any of the courts or anywhere else about the lease amounts to nothing.

It was expected that the Republican Btate Committee wonld take up the mat ter of putting the candidate for Congress In the field for this district when it met at Greensboro last Saturday, bat the oommittee did not even notice this mat ter at all. The fact is, Republicans here say, the district committee will have to meet and settle this question. Hereto fore one side or the other has pulled out and prevented anything being done. There is some bitterness of feeling among the two fsctlons. Of course the nomina tlon Is an empty honor, yet two 01 three men would like to have It.

Respectfully, LONGMAN A MARTINEZ. These Celebrated Paints are sold-by Hyman bupply Co The Power of as Idea A Story Hi Dettd ateeelssoasOoyd. Over a rear agoDr Walter H Page, editor of The WctMTs Work, deervered a lecture at the State Normal School at Athene. 9a., oa the sabJact.-Tne School that Built tbe Town." On that oeeaatoa oae ot the protessora at Use Btate Valvar alty, which Is located In the same otty, posted oa his class-room door, a notice dismissing his classes for the afternoon. One of his students, spon seeing the no tice oa the door, made inquiries ooaoera lag the cause ot the professor's absence, and learned that he had gone to atlead Dr Page's lecture. This student hasten ed oa foot, fir more than a mile, to the Normal Sehoo. that he might share with his professor the benefits of the lee tare. The words of Df Page ssade a deep impression upon tbe young man's mind tbe clear and forceful argument that a tchoo) should stand for the best things attainable and la every possible way thonld build up and enrich the life about it, set him thinking aa nothing else bad done. He had attended a coun try school and had taught a country school, but the Idea had sever occurred to him that a school could be made to have Influence upon ti e life of a oommu city as the lecturer im 1 convinced him that It should hare. As be con inued his work at the uni versity he tiegaa planning to go back to bis old country school after graduating, and there to build a school thst would uplift the country round about him. His plant were not )et clear, but the con viction deepened that something could be done, sad that he waa the oae to dolt Then a body of eminent educate came to Athens and hsd a conference. This same young man was a silent and unobierved listener at tbe addreases and discussions of the conference. A great deal was said about consolidating schools, transporting pupila.tntroduclng industrial courses Into the curriculum. This was the needed suggestion the young man saw the way open np before him. He would finish his work at tbe university, get his degree, and then go beck home and get charge of his old oonntry school and there put into opera tion all these new ideas. Commence ment was soon over, and the young man was back again at his father's country home. As he stood next day thinking of tbe problem before him, his eyes fell upon the rural free delivery mail-box by tbe roadside, and'the thought came to him that within a few minutes he could deposit there notices thst would soon reach every patron in the two districts that he had decided to consolidate. A meeting was called and the plan for con eolldatlon presented, committees were put to work, subsequent meetings held, and the plans finally approved. One school was abolisued and united with the school at Sandhill, a little Til lageof 200 inhabitants. Mr Williams, the hero of this story, wss made princl pal of the school and two young ladles, Misses Jessie Swope and Nannaline My- rlck, graduates of the State Normal School at Athens, were employed as his assistants. A school wagon was pur chased for the transportation of pupils. A farm adjacent to the school grounds was rented to cover tbe extra expense of the transportation. Fire hundred dollsri wss raised by private subaerip tion to pay for the wagon, to Increase teachers' salaries, and otherwise to im prove the school, this method of raising funds being necessary because the slate constitution practically prohibits a local tax for school purposes. Arrangements were made with the patron living farth est from tbe tchool to have his two old est boys csre for the learn and transport eighteen pupils in return for the inci dental fees for his five children. Later another wagon, with a capacity for ten pupils, wss purchased and a student en gaged to bring pupils from another dl rectlon. Then four buggies were offer ed for use, each carrying four pupils, thus making a total of alx vehicles In the service of the school for the trans portatlon of forty-four pupils from the more remote parts of the enlarged dis trict. The pair ms became Intensely In terested ia the greater opportunities which they were opening up t their boys and girls; school opened, and with In a few days the enrollment la this cen tral school was more than doable what it had ever been In the two separate schools. More than two hundred pupils were there with new life and new hope and groups of parents stood about, each telling ot what he had done to help the school, and each rejoicing in anticipa tion of the better days that he was help ing to bring to bis own children and to the children of his neighbor. That waa what I saw on my visit to the school And eight or tea of these parents fol lowed me from room to roosa as I In 1 pec ted the work of the school, and they listened with hungry attention aa I talked to the pupils. It was aa latplra-tlon-the enllghtend lore of parents, their pride in efficient discharge of paren tal duty, the swelling ambition and hope of childhood. THE SECRET OF SUCCESS.
