C OF C. BACKED
BY CITY COUNCIL
The City. Council Takes
Sleps to Help Finance
Chamber of Commerce This
Year.
That the work of the Chamber of
Commerce had actually saved the
tity money and that Its activities de
serve the financial backing of the
City Council was the unanimous
opinion of the Council in session Fri
day night.
As It was not known whether un
der the present charter the Council
nas a legal right to make an appro
priation to the Chamber of Com
merce, the matter was referred to
City Attorney Leigh. If upon inves
tigation he finds there Is no author
ity for such an' appropriation In the
charter, he will prepare a bill for
the present session of the Legisla
ture giving the Council the neces
sary authority to make the appro
priation. The Council was not def
inite as to what amount would be ap
propriated for the work of the Cham
ber ibut members Intimated that the
amount would be from five hundred
to one thousand dollars. Council
man Weatherly brought the matter
to the attention of the body and
stated that other cities were making
such appropriations citing Norfolk,
where the town council appropriates
twenty thousand dollars annually to
the traffic department of the Cham
ber alone.
URGE PAVING SIDEWALK
IN FRONT COURTHOUSE
The City Council Friday night ap
pointed a committee to appear be
fore the . grand Jury at the March
term of court and ibefore the County
Commissioners in their next regu
lar session to urge the pavement of
the sidewalk in front of the court
house. This action was urged by
Mayor Goodwin, who stated that it
was his opinion that this paving
could not be done until it was rec
nmmpnded bv a erand Jury. This is
the only segment of sidewalk pn the!
north side of Main sireei inai is noi
paved in concrete and during the re
cent rains water has stood on this
sidewalk to snch an extent that pe
destrians have had to take to the
street or wade in water on a side
walk that was laid when the court
iiouse was built and has scarcely
been repaired since.
The paving of Fearing street side
walk on the north side from Dyer to
Perrse streets was authorized by the
Council. The action of the Board
followed a petition presented by C.
D. Bundy nd signed by practically
all property owners on this seg
ment of the street.
The City Council, prevented from
meeting on Monday night on account
of inclement weather, held a very
business like session Friday night,
disposing of all business and peti
tions in less than an hour.

Special Teachers
For Retarded Pupils
Dr. H. W. Crane of University of
North Carolina Says This Sys
tem Is Most Economical
That special teachers for retarded
pupils is not only the progressive
method of the day but that It is also
the most economical was the sub
stance of Dr. H. W. Crane's message
to the Board of School trustees and
the Parent-Teachers' Association in
Joint session Friday evening at the
High School Building. (
It Is estimated, Dr. Crane said,
that the average cost per pupil In the
primary and grammar grades Is forty
dollars annually. It would be more
economical to employ special teach
ers and give these pupils more Indi
vidual attention than they receive in
the present system of keeping them
In the same grade, year after year.
These special teachers often could
discover to what line of study the
child's mind Is especially adapted
and in this way encourage the chil
dren In work that appeals to the fit."
Dr. Crane cited one Instance In
which a child was especially good at
drawing but could not make her
grades In other studies. She was
permitted to study art and today Is,
one of the designers on a popular
magazine.
These special teachers would elim
inate grading altogether and their
work would Include pupils in the
grammar and primary grades. Dr.
Crane estimates that four teachers
could be used to advantage in the
Elizabeth City schools. However, he
points out that one or two special
teachers to begin with would work
to great advantage.
Dr. Crane Is a nieniher of the
State Board of Public Welfare and
Is in the Department of Psychology
at the University of North Carolina.
The Board of Trustpes or the Parent-Teachers'
Association did not dis
cuss taking action on the recommen
dations of Dr. Crane, Friday night,
but It Is believed that favorable ac
tion may be taken when other plans
for the coming year are taken up
by the board.
