Washington, Feb. 19. To many people in the United States,
prohibition is a novelty, something new, something suddenly im
posed. But it isn't. The libraries are full of books, pamphlets,
speeches, legal records of prosecutions and statistics all the way
back to 1827. All kinds of pro-!
hibitory laws from local option
to licensing of saloons and drug ,
stores have been put on the sta
tute books of the various states
of the American union for near
ly a century.
You can talk to the leaders of both
side? today and both groups will In-j
sist that before you make up your i
mind whether prohibition is a good j
thins or a bad thing, the experience
of the past should be carefully ex
amined. As for conclusions, the
"wet" will argue that the record
shows prohibition cannot be enforced
and makes for a gradual diminution
in public respect for Jaw and the
oath of public officials. Conversely,
the "dry" will say that when you
have read all that has happened on
the subject in the last fifty years you
will be convinced that the movement
had been from the outset the inspir
ation of the best citizenry of the na
tion andthat the varied forms of re
striction" imposed by the states did
not always permit of real enforce
ment because the power of the Fed
eral government was lacking and
that everything which occurred be
fore 1920 was only an argument for
the need of an amendment to the
Federal constitution.

A country-wide teachers' meeting
was held in the handsome new high
school building at Moyock, Currituck
County, Friday
The meeting was called by Supt.
W. D. Cox. who welcomed the teach
ers and visitors.
Mrs. J. G. Fearing of Elizabeth
City was the first speaker on the
program, her subject being the im
portance of teaching Safety First in
the schools. She told of the terrible
loss of life and property in the State
last year, declaring that the fire loss
in 1922 would have paid the salaries
of every teacher in the State, white
and colored, for over five months.
Three fourths of these fires could
have been prevented by ordinary
care. The habit of carelessness, she
said, is America's greatest evil, and
the formation of good habits in early
life is most important. She urged
the high school boys and girls to en
ter the contest for writing a short
Safety First play. The prizes are
$10 and $5 and the papers are to
be In the hands 6f the committee by
the second week of March.
Dr. J. H. Highsmith of the Stat"
Department of Education, then ad
dressed the teachers on the subject
of higher education. His explana
tion of how to secure units for school
work was very helpful. There are
now 207 standard high schools in
the State, a great increase in the last
few years. North Carolina boys and
girls now have access to 250,000 vol
umes in school libraries. Better
schools he declared, are largely due
to consolidation, the use of school
trucks, and so on.
The Moyock Parent-Teachers' As
sociation served a delicious lunch,
and after this. Dr. Highsmith held a
conference with the teachers, dis
cussing their problems in a very
helpful manner.
In the afternoon Mrs. Fearing ad
dressed the women of Moyock and
organized a Woman's Club.
At night Dr. Highsmith delivered
a very Interesting lecture before the
Parent-Teachers' Association." A
splendid musical program was given
by the pupils of Moyock school.

Misses Ehrinfeld and Victory were
present and the former in a clear,
definite, straightforward manner
stated the general plan for the work.j
While under the contract the
nurse will be permitted to give dem
onstration lessons In the care of the
infant; yet, for obvious reasons, she
will not be allowed to do what is
known as bed side nursing. Her ac
tivities must be along educational
lines which according to the state
ment of Miss Ehrinfeld are In sub
stance as follows:
Educational Program
1 Parental teaching, conferences
with expectant mothers and advice
and recommendations for their In
dividual cases.
2 Mld-wifery, course of Instruc
tion as to best methods, sanitation,
and explanation of the three require
ments of the law that they must all
register with State health author
ities, make official reports of births.
and use silver nitrate in the eyes of
the young Infant.
3 Care of small children, advice
to mothers as to proper nourishment
and environment.
4 Junior 'Mothers League, organ
ization of girls In 5th, 6th, 7th and
8th grades sanitation In the home
'and care of young children.
5 Junior Red Cross Chapter, In
I the high schools, Instruction to girls
iln the proper care of the sick room.
6 Modern health cruslde, organ
ized In all the schools of the county.
This Is broad program and It can
hardly be expected that all these di
visions will be completely organized
In the space of one year. In present
ing the matter Misses Ehrinfeld an!
Victory made a favorable Impression
on t!' r 't' lo whom they pofce.
