FSIDAT MAT 5. I#os. Veterans' Meetinf. In another column we pub lish an account of the i-all>*d meeting of tbe Confederate soldiers of Williaroston. Tin* was rather a surprise meeting, thought of and executed in a day. but there had to be a be ginning,-conditions were ripe, there was the need, the enthu siasm spread and will spread until every Confederate soldier is called to nature's bivouac We hope every citizen ol Martin county will take a per sonal interest in this re-union It it not a duty we owe lieruw but an honor we should pay the men who put aside all tie* of home, of friends and loved ones and placed their life be tween the enemy and their country. The number grows smaller with the advancing yean and we should not wait to honor them in death. Let them be honored now. Let a monu ment be erected in their hearts as well as over their gravaa. The Graded School. It is to be regretted that the Graded School had to be closed at the end of the seventh! month. The condition of the treasury would not justify the' eighth month, therefore rather than have to make the nexti term one of six monthes, or] # seven is thin, but possibly etght months if the board can once get the school out of debt by saving now, it was thought best to close. The school is a source of pride to the community, and justly so. In the first-grade we find children six years old reading, writing and drawing better than most the schools we know teach by the time they are nine. One of the pupils in the first grade wss asked to draw the school build ing for the writer and the work was BO exact as to be under stood at a glance. There be fore your eyes a six-year-old j tot sketched a two-story build-1 ing with no difficulty and with I no assistance—surely a marvel to the unacquainted. In the second grsde the chil-! dren were drawing and color- 1 ing flowers some of which there was no difficulty in recogniziug. The third grade was studying elementary geography and were thoroughly acquainted with the maps of the coutinents, mountain ranges, riven and chief cities. The evidence of the muter band of the teacher WM ever present. This grade had nearly completed the work which oould have been easily done in another month. ' Ike fourth and fifth grades war* doing composition work m the aebool classics- There ia a series of these classics be ginning at the first grade and m—iij throogh to the eighth pade. The classic in use in the ftfth grade was "The Gold en Touch." Hawthorne. Chil dren from eight to twelve years could rand a work in which were words of three and four syllables. They pronounced and used them familiarly, showing a training ia this respect that will be of great practical benefit. In the higher grades we found children reading and compre hending the great author or •"Evangeline. *' The contrast with the use and study of Eng lish to-day and when we were sent to the board to parse a long sentence is very striking. We do not believe in the sugar coating process but ii a stud}* enn be made interesting why not make it so? These chil dren were learning by practice rule* in English that we had to memorize. We could recite them to the glory and charm of our teacher but knew no more about what we were say ing than if we had said nothing or had said it in Hebrew. The change ia surely the result of a great revolution. Mathematics was taught us by rule, to-day you are taught the reason and the rule is merely a means of summariz ing the reanon. The pupil can make hia own rule after he has learned to work an example by Professor Cowper's meth ods. Complicated examples in per cent, were given and worked and rules explained rather than being given in a song. Few realize the opportunity of their school days, few real ize that they are the happiest and yet the most important of all days. That striving of na ture to ever be what it is not or to be more of what it is which enters the soul of man from the very day he becomes one of his kind, keeps the child from being reconciled with its happy lot That is a strange joy manifested at the school commencement which marks lour march into the strife of life which must end with the grave, j These hoys and girls are happy, [why? We do not attempt to explain, but we venture the assertion that most of them will wish for their teachers in a | lew days. The one idea that | struck u* most forcibly was the i prevailing brightness and | cheerfttlneas of the pupils. The i prevailing spirit was that of | joy in duty which was boing | faithfully performed. This is jas it should be. A slothful student who never had nny | pride in his work loses his self respect. confidence in his abili ty. which means a weak char acter and an indifferent man. The teachers are the makers |of the school. If there is any success to be attained it must be through the teacher. A teacher in the log cabin with logs for seats and cracks for light is preferable to a school [keeper in a palace with all the modem appliances. It u for tunate for our community that |we h«ve good teachers and a | good building than which there are i,one better. It is to be hoped that the present corps of teachers will be with us next year when they may continue the work that is so ueoeraary and they perform so successfully Don't let the children suffer.

Some years ago it was wr'tten in the Morning Poet that the day was not far distant when the teach ingof insurance would be an impor tant department of education. Comment, both favorable and unfa vorable, on the idea, was general. The Insurance Pre* of New York, looked with favor upon the idea. The summer following, Mr. George Tarbell, now much referred to, started the "summer school of the Equitable," whete young men who held good references from their colleges, were taught insur ance during the summer recess Since then many of the leading colleges of the country have estab Itched a department for teaching insurance, and leading insurance men deliver lectures before the claaaeas. Had some of our North Carolina Had some of our North Carol ina colleges adopted the course then suggested it would not now be necessary to send north for act uaries and men to fill such like places in our own insurance com pan vs. It is not too late to take it up now.—Raleigh Post.
