We cannot attempt to give even a synopsis of the message, but we consider it a very able one and in most respects the recommenda tions will be popular with most people. South Dakota recently won a suit against North Carolina based on certain reconstruction bonds anil secured judgment and the payment of about $25,000. The retiring Governor of South Dako ta, Mr. El rod in his last, message to the Legislature urges that the Stale refund the money to North Caioliuaoii tnegroiind tat it has no moral right to rtain H. The Governor says the courts sustain ed the legal right of South Dako ta to rt cover, but there are in stances in which lual rights and moral rights differ, and this is one of them. The moaey obtain ed from Nortn Carolina in this case has been given to the State University.' It will b interesting to note if the South Dakota Legis lature has the moral courage to do the right thing, as recommended by the Governor. Savannah News. ENTRY NuTlCE.

THE PATRIOTIC CITIZEN. Paper read by Miss Miriam Mcl'adyen, of C'larklon Academy, al the Janua ry meet ing of 1 1 if I'.laden Coiiuly Teachers' Association. Teaching is a spiritual art and classifies with music, poetry and oratory. F( r several years these have been the first words 1 have seen oi opening my professional journal. And yet teaching, except in I he case of college or ii. oversitv work, is not recognized as one of the learned professions. Teachers neither meet with (hat social and i'lnaneial recognition, nor exercise (hat itidiieiice in the ,-uin mini it y which (he supreme importance of tri"ir "alline deserves m.d (,, uianas.

I w ish to say right here that I am heartily and entire ly in favor of .i compulsory seiiool law m North Carolina. 1 believe the Stale has done only a part, of her dut y when she provides her chi dron with schools. She should require then t attend these schools for at least four months in even year, between the ages of I) and 11. J believe the time has come w hen every t'jachr in Bla den county, and every teacher in N.irth Carolina, should begin to agitate this question. As 1 said an educated citizen ship is necessary with our form of government. Not the education alone which enables a man to earn a livelihood, but rather that which enables him to become a useful member of socio. y, and especially that which tits him to properly perform his duties to his government and to his fd owinen, . So it is the patriotic citizen we need. But, "love of country" must be preceded by knowledge of country. Can wo love that of which we are ignorant? Therefore I would urge upon you t he need of laving nuire at tention to tie .study of civil gov ernment in your schools. This can be 1.,-gun with the smallest children; they will be in-teiv-ted to know the names of the officers of their town county, etc, and as they grow older they should know what qualifications are' upc essary for a man to be PresLlenmf tho United Stltes, lo be a United States Senator, a Congressman, ele. 1 lii'ii eon i p.) re- t ne i pin 1 ilieat ions j laf'.

In this way the youth of our couutry will comprehend, in tho language of Benjamin Harrison, that "Citizenship has its duties as well as iU privileges. The first is fhat we give our energies and influence to t he enactment of jiust, equal and beneficent- laws. The second is like unto it; that we loyally reverence and obey the will of the majority, whether we a re of the ma jont y or not: Tho law throws the algis of its protec tion over us al I To the law- we bow with reverence. It is the one king that commands our allegi ance." I think the act passed by the Legislature in 11)01, that one day t:i each and every year should be known as '-Carolina Day," and should be celebrated as such by all our schools, by devoting the day to I ho consideration of some topic of our State history, was a wise one indeed. It has already done much to arouse the patriotic spirit w it Inn our borders. The law would not have been in van. were it only for the fact that each teaeber in North Carolina In, had cope - of (lllr patriotic soiigdsen!

And now' that wu have learned these songs, please do not forget all about them till "Caro lina Day" next year. I have found that nothing re I'evos a school room of its dredg ery I ike bright, catchy songs. I have known children to work hard all day fcrthe privilege of singing the last ten or fifteen minutes in the afternoon. Have you ever tried opening your school in the morning with a good sni.g, not necessarily a Sunday School song, but a song song the children like to sing? If so, have you not found that you did not have so many tardieB? Or how about that time in school when everything is going wrong, whet: even the brightest seem stupid, and every one is squirming? Have you evr put on your sweetest smile and said, ''Come, let's stand and sing that song you like best of all." Was that five minutes wasted? No, for that song uas acted like a stimulant, and everyone gies to work with renewed vigor, Use your patriotic songs on these occasions. "'Carolina" and "Ho, for Carolina" aTe both fine and I 've never seen a child w ho did not like to sing them, But whence must come the in spiration for this tasK? The thousands of children in our schools represnt all classes of society, and all stages t social and moral development. We cau not hope to make scholars ot thni all, much less perfectly developed men and women . Our aim is to do t he best we can for each indi vidual, toenab e him to grasp the iiighesf, opportunities of which his lit' here is capable, ai.d to do his duty. tl i - r-.
