Ho had been on the u?? constantly for five days and for the greater part c?f five nights when he faced his audience from the platform of the high school auditorium, an average of four or Ave hours sloop having been about all he had been a bio to get. Friday was typical of the rest of the weog. ! Ho not up at Windsor at o'clock for an early start to Rlizaheth City. The road was now to him and his driver and Imd beyond all expecta tions to a man who know something of tin* strides North Carolina has boon making In rondbullding, and he soon saw that it was going to take hard driving to put him in Klizaheth City in time for his 1 o'clock ap pointment to speak before the Eliz abeth City Uotarians. As a 'matter of fact, by drlvlnc on Rood stretches of road at a rate involving some risk to life and limb, he arrived about a half- hour late and- began his talk to tli*? Uotarians almost Imme diately upon his arrival. That done' ho had to shake hands with the members of the club ar.d their, gti* cts before lie could eat his lunch. After lunch his friends had him down town introducing lilni to ETiza betli City's business section and its business men. In the evening he was - u ' of. the Kiwanis Club at dinner. And from dinner lie went strai^ht wav to the high school auditoi ium . "1 was never so tired in my life. ' lie confessed lo a friend after the pro-.. ram and after those who had crowded up to shake his hand were -one "I couldn't put punch in that speech." I>hin*t MNs It. Hut the audience, apparently, did-' n't miss the punch. II was im pressed with the speaker's broad view of education and more lm pr? ssed. perhaps, as suggested by J. C. it. Ehringhaus, who Introduced the1 speaker, that there was a man behind the speech. Mr. McLean was ^ i veil close attention, generous ap plause. iind received, at the end of the program, hundreds of expres sions of appreciation of his address from those who heard him. Prior to the speaker's address 71. F. .\vt\b ii. chairman of the bonr?* of school trusteos, made a statement showing how the $100,000 bofie is sue voted for the erection of this and other school buildings in ihe cllv had been spent. The new hi.!: school hiilldlng opened Frldav n'uhi cost *2,r.0.000, $110,00') had b. . n spent on school buildings for ? ? lb: 1 people, and 150,000 for sites. For ? very dollar spent, ho told his near er?, the city had received full value, and, after being handicapped for two or throe years by lack of room, now has school facilities which, from the standpoint of equipment, are second to none In the Slate. Mr. Ayd h-tt also took occasion to d? nv wlde lv circulated reports to the effect that the colored schools Ihe city till v uot received as much money as colored lav payers have paid in for the citv's schools. "I kn? W that the white people of the city would ii want their chil dren educated with the money . r colorrd taxpayers, lie said, and we Investigated this report and found that the colored rehools have re ceived from two to three times as much monev for schools as colored tax payers have pnld In." A plea for support of ihe school* on the part of the parents by Super intendent S.
