TEACHING AND LEARNING.
Tiie After School Hub and The Boy of
To-Morrow.
J .; The following, while not primarily
presented as an arraignment of our
present day system of education,
could well stand as such:
"In the school of to-morrow it will
be boys more than books and living
more than letters. It will make for
the health of the body, fresh air,
wholesome food, adequate exercise,
and manly work; it will make for
the health of the mind sanity,
alertness and reliability; it will make
for the health of the spirit habits
of social justice and expressions of
divine truth. Furthermore, it will
direct its youth into paths of indus
trial efficiency and world service.
"The schools of yesterday were so
arranged as to make it convenient
to teach; the schools of to-morrow
will be arranged to make it con
venient to learn."
It would seem that the very dis
satisfaction with things as they are
must hold the promise of advance
ment. In answer to this very demand for
something better a saner educa
tion of parent, teacher and child
alike has grown up a movement
which is dojng widespread, practical
good in nearly every State of cur
Union; in fact it is revolutionizing
things educationally. It is the After
School Club, an organization of lead
ing educators and experts in child
training, who have crystalized into
one great movement all the availa
ble'helps for the school and the home.
The After School Clubbf America
has undertaken to bring to parents
and teachers the best thought ob
tainable in the study and welfare of
children. It places in their hand?
.die proceedings of practically all the
various societies which are working
in the cause of childhood and citizen
ship. To the children it gives the
best possible opportunities for men
tal, moral and spiritual growth.
This is an expression of the opin
ion of a leading educator regarding
the work Martin G. 'Brumbaugh,
superintendent of schools, Philadel
phia, Pa., says:
"I have gone with considerable
care into the work of the After
School Club of America, and like its
plans and approve its methods. I
believe it is destined to accomplish
a large good in the training and
nutrition of the children of this
cunry.
"The After School Club was or
ganized in this city and is officered
and supported by some of the most
disinterested and capable men of
affairs in Philadelphia. I believe
that the people interested in this
have no mercenary or ulterior mo
tive, tteir one desire being to help
childhood in" a systematic and ration
al way. I should be very glad in
deed to see large numbers of chil
dren enjoy the benefits of this ad
mirable plan for their broader edu
cation." PJewspspsr Luck.
Editing a newspaper is a nice thing.
If we publish jokes, people say we
are rattle-brained. If we don't we
are fossils. If we publish original
matter they say we don't give them
enough selections. If we give thorn
selections they say we are too lazy
to write.
If we don't go to church we are
heathens. If we do go we are hypo
crites. If we remain in the office we
ought to be out looking for news
items. If we go out then we are
not attending to business. If ve
wear old clothes they laugh at us.
If ve wear good clothes they say we
have a pull.
Now, what are we to do?
Just as likely as not some one will
say that we stole this from an ex
change. So we did.

THE MARCH- OF AN IDEA.
It Should Reach all Over the State of
North Carolina.
About two year3 ago a small can
ning plant was established near
Rings Mountain. Its first season
was encouraging, its second still
more so, and it is now being put in
readiness to do a rushing business
during the approaching summer. A
little while ago a newcomer to Gas
ton county instituted a truck farm
near Gastonia. Succeeding well in
this venture, he has announced that
he will within the next few months
establish a canning factory, and the
fruit and vegetable growers in his
vicinity are evincing an interest in
the proposition which offers a most
gratifying guarantee of its success.
These two items of industrial news
have much intrinsic importance for
the section from which the fruit and
vegetables to be canned will come,
but their interest is not by any
means local. The Lihcolnton News
quotes a detailed statement from
the Gastonia Progress with refer
ence to the matter and adds: -
"Right here in Lincolnton somf
one with a small amount of. capital
could make good money in this busi
ness. It will bear investigation."
In the next county to rthe north
the Newton News draws precisely
the same inference. Noting the
Gastonia proposal, the last named
contemporary comments:
"We believe there is good money
in the business and would like to see
a factory established here. It ere
ates a market for truck and furnish
es a supply of pure food products.
Individuals who operate on a small
scale do very well indeed."
We are not informed as to how
much influence the Kings Mountain
venture had jipon the inauguration
of the Gastonia plans; it was doubt
less considerable. We have the bes1
evidence that the latter has aroused
interest in two neighboring counties
where conditions are so nearly simi
lar as to gyve, the same promise, of
success. Thus it goes. The peopte
of North Carolina are becoming
every year more familiar with what
is being attempted around them and
are borrowing ideas from each other
right andief t. There is scarcely any
other single sign of the times which
looms as big with promise. The
eventual result will be that the State
will have a prosperity which applies
to every county and not merely to
one here and there. Charlotte Ob
server. Which Foot Walks Faster.
You may think this js a very silly
question to ask but it isn't. If you
will take a pavement that is clear,
and walk briskly in the center . you
will find before you have gone fifty
yards you have veered very to one
side. You must not make any ef
fort, of course, to keep in the center;
but if you will think of something
and endeavour to walk naturally,
you will be able to keep a correct
line. If you lose yourself on an ex
panse of black moorland, and walk
on, you will describe a complete cir
cle. The explanation of this lies in the
propensity of one foot to walk faster
than the other or to take a longer
stride' than the other causing you to
walk to one side.
To make assurance double sure,
try placing tvo sticks eighty feet
apart; then stand off about sixty
feet, blindfold yourself, and en
deavour to walk between them. It
is almost impossible. Young People.
Is It '"Talk" Again?
Rocky Mount, N. C Is the At
lantic Coast Line going into Raleigh
by way of Spring Hope and Bu'nn
and has the agreement with the Sea
board Air Line terminated whereby
as long as the Atlantic Coast Line
used the bridge across Roanoke river
that the Atlantic Coast Line Rail
road was to stay out of Raleigh?
There has been considerable discus
sion provoked among the newspa
pers and with railroad folks, which
was evidently started by an article
in the State press recently when it
was explained that aji agreement as
outlined had long existed with the
Seaboard and that now the Atlantic
Coast Line was about to complete
its new double track bridge across
the Roanoke river that it might be
expected that such an agreement
would be broken and that the At
lantic Coast Line might enter Ral
eigh, the route suggested being the
nearest possible, from Spring Hope
to Bunn and on through to Raleigh,
a distance of less than 25 miles. - -
CHANGE IN HEN'S DRESS.
The Proposition That Men so Tronser
less Not Well Received.
Artists and sculptors have long
been in rebellion against the clothes
of the modern man, and so it is not
surprising to learn from a sympos
ium in a weekly journal of Rome
that out of a thousand answers by
painters and writers as to what
should constitute the regulation at
tire of man in the future, eight hun
dred and forty are in favor of a rad
ical change.
One artist thinks there are too
many buttons on man's attire, and
mere statement will probably carry
conviction to the unprejudiced mind.
borne of these buttons seem to bear
much the same relation to what
Carlyle called the Vestural Tissue of
man as the vermiform appendix
does to the body. They are chiefly
employed, it would seem, in getting
a man into trouble. Of course, for
soldiers and policemen, the more
buttons the better, because brass
buttons, by common consent, repre
sent organized authority.!
Another artist is opposed to man's
attire because it is colorless and
therefore does not give the impres
sion of animation and energy.
Moreover it is without folds and is
therefore not conducive to grace.
Another is in favor of dispensing
with trousers on the ground that
this garment is the enemy to sculp
ture. But why should trousers give
way entirely that statues shall be
more graceful?. We don't know how
many statues there are in the uni-1
verse, although by general agree
ment there are far too many; but
their number whatever it may be is
small compared with the millions of
men who have never been dignified
in marble or bronze. Shall a mil
lion men go trouserles3 in order that
one of the million may appear more
graceful in a blanket or togo?
' After airit is not the writers, ar
tists and sculptors who are to de
whatnian shall wear. It is the
tailor; and while there is an 'ancient j
jest at the expense of the tailor as
being only the ninth part of a man
it is mostly all talk. Even the great
Corsican bowed to the dictates of !
Leger his tailor, and when Napoleon (
took a fancy to have the skirts of
his tunic turned back like those of
Frederick the Great, Leger replied,
"I shall not think of allowing such a
thing, sire! You would look absurd.
Mv reputation would be lost.
If even Napoleon could not with
stand his tailor, what chance has the
ordinary man? New York World.
Henry Clay Brown.
The news of the death of Corpora
tion Commissioner Brown has carried
genuine sorrow to thousands of
hearts throughout North Carolina.
He was one of the most modest men
who have ever held public office in
this State; yet the State has never
had a more earnest, painstaking,
efficient, tireless, honest and faith
ful official. No one will be found to
question Henry Brown's motive or
his desire to do at all times that
which he conscientiously believed to
be right.
He became clerk to the railroad
commission when that department
of the State government was estab
lished twenty years ago, and by his
intelligent grasp of the responsibili
ties of the place made himself so in
dispensable that he was retained
continuously through the changing
administrations. He appeared to be
a fixed part of its organization, and
naturally succeeded himself when
the name was changed to the cor
poration commission.
Upon the death of Commissioner
B. F. Aycock in April f last year
Mr. Brown was appointed by Gov
ernor Kitchin as his successor. In
the fall he was elected to fill the un
expired term of four years. He was
perhaps the best posted man in the
State in regard to such matters as
come properly before the corpora
tion commission -for adjudication.
He will be ' missed. Greensboro

Escaped With His Life.
"Twenty-one years ago I faced an
awful death," writes H. B. Martin,
Port Harrelson, S. C. "Doctors said
I had consumption and the dreadful
cough. I had looked like it sure
enough. I tried everything I could
hear of for my cough, and was under
Lthe treatment m tne Lest doctor in
Georgetown, S. C, for a year, but
could get no relief. A friend ad
vised me to try' Dr. King's Ne-sr Dis
covery. I did so, and was complete
ly cured. I feel that I owe my life
to this great throat and lung cure."

colds, and all bronchial affections.

HOT AIR AT THE CAPITOL.
With $27,000 Available Congress Can't
Hare Its Cooling Plant.
Although - Congress slipped
through an appropriation of $27,000,
about fifteen minutes before final
adjournment, for the fortification of
the Capitol, it will avail nothing. It
was an appropriation for apparatus
with which to cool the air - of the
Senate and House, but the President
was so quick on the trigger in calling
the extra session for April 4 that
the machine cannot be installed in
time to give any relief from the hot
air of the summer of 1911.
The President is fortified. He had
such a machine put in about the
first thing after he became president.
His office in the White House is fixed
to keep cool no matter how much
hot air comes along, either from the
weather or refrigerator plant'works.
By it the President can stand an en-'
tire summer in Washington it he has
to. For he can keep his office at 70
and wait in their dephts for Congress
to do its darndest, while Congress
will have to labor in whatever tem
perature happens to be ruling in
Washington, and the temperature in
Washington is known to rule hteh in
summer.
It had been the intention of Con
gress to have a grand overhauling of
the Capitol this summer.' For one
thing, plans had been prapired to
rearrange the seating of the House
of Representatives by throwing cut
the desks, making the hall consider
ably smaller, and bringing the mem
bers closes together, so that they
could all hear the debate if rney
wanted to. Th's also was expected
to result in enough additional seats
to take care of the membership in
case the reapportionment bill increa
sing the memberslr'p of the House
from 391 to 433 pissed. At present
only those members with foghorn
voices can make themselves heard
all over the hall, and frequently
those with foghorn voices are the
ones who have nothing to say the
- tasieo hear
To rebuild the house and t ut
the air-cooling refrigerator plant in
House and Senate will take about
seven months, and this coming long
summer was supposed to contain the
r necessary
seven.
But President
Taft spoiled it. The architects
couldn't even make, a start in the
30 days between March 4 and April
4. Next summer there will be the
long session of Congress, and some
times these long sessions last half
way to fall, so that no seven months
for tearing ug the halls of Congress
are in sight) then. Washington cor
respondent of the Boston Herald.
In Re The Negro.
Some how or other we have always
had a warm spot for'the negro that
is the good negro, the negro who at
tends to his own business and tries
to make a decent living and respects
himself and the white people among
whom he lives. We dislike the "up
pity" negro just as we dislike the
vain, pompous and conceited white
man. We want to see all our people
prosper along industrial and intel
lectual lines. As a matter of fact,
our first concern is the white people,
but we believe that if tiie negro
prospers -it will be an incentive to
stir the white man to greater efforts.
We have no patience with the idea
of social equality. -
There are lots of white people
whom you do not associate with, not
because they are not as wealthy as
you may be, or ' because they may
not be as well educated as you may
be, but because they have not enough
respect for themselves to' make you
respect them. No self-respecting
white person will associate on terms
of equality with a colored, person,
and no self-respecting colored per
son would for a moment think of at
tempting to associate on terms of
equality with a white person. There
is a line that has been drawn, espec
ially for we people of the South,
that must be adhered to, and yet
there is nothing ahut that line
which keeps the white man from
helping the negro and wishing him
well. Gaffney (S. C.) Ledger.
No Slavery to Work.

DRINK HORE WATER.
Nothing will Take the Place of Nature's
Healthful Beverage.
Water drinkers are seldom sick,
and longest lived, other things be
ing equal. Men everywhere are
trying to find how to keep well and
live happily and long, yet continual
ly miss the" essentials. Few persons
realize that artificial drinks fail to
meet the daily wants of the system.
A very large number are actually
falling behind in health for the lack
of pure drinking water to cool and
refresh the over-headed blood. Wa
ter is frequently repudiated by men
and women who seem wholly un
mindful that it has advantages for
them beyond price.
More than three-fourths of the
contents of the body is water, nine
tenths of the brain and nervous sys
tem is water, likewise the blood and
other fluids. The daily supply of
water required by the average size
man or woman varies according to
age, work and climate.
There are no known counter-indications
to the use of water as a
drink. The quantity may be what
ever the stomach and intestines are
able to absorb. It is safe to say
that pure water may be drunk at
any hour and with hardly any limit
ation save such as might be plain to
any one.
Strange as it may seem, few are
aware that clean pure water hss
virtues superior to medicated liquids
as a life saving agency. Mineral
waters, either natural or artificial,
fail to satisfy and are less whole
some than water which holds in
solution no foreign element. Physi

cast in Congress has been in accord

He has taken the platform as if it

and we do not know that he has ever
