Saturday waa.a great day for the teacbeti of Gascon county. The occasion was the monthly meeting of the Gaston County Teachers’ Association for De cember, which was held in the court bouse at Dallas. More teachers were (a attendance than had been present at auy previous meeting of this associa tion. This is hardly a matter for surprise, however, when one u acquainted with the fact that the announcements seat out be forehand staled that the citirens of Dallas would entertain the teachers at dinner at the Hod man and White Houses. This they did in royal styla. Owing to the lateness of the train it was after 11 o'clock when the meeting began. It opened with priyei* by Rev. Cornelius Miller, pastor of the HaIIiB PrraKvIurtan Supt. J. S. Wray, of Gastonia, presided. The general subject for the ddy was toe teaching of English in the public schools. The first speaker on the program waa Prof. J. 0 Hinson of Monnt Holly, whose subject was " Dif faculties I Have Met in Teaching English in Public Schools ” He was followed by Snpt. S. G Lindsay, of the Dallas schools, who spoke on “Difficulties in Application of Acquired Knowl edge in the Public Schools." The third and last number oo the program was a paper by Miss Virginia Egerton, of the Gas tonia gradeo schools, on “Form ing Correct Tastes in English." The forenoon session closed with an open disco aaion on the practical ways in which the several teachers have taught English in the public schools, led off by Mrs. L. D. Henderson, of Monnt Holly. This took the for in of a round table or ones tion-and-answer affair and proved quite intereating and profitable. The papers by Profs. Hinson and Lindsay and Miss Egerton were full of practical suggestions and all the teachers present doubtless gleaned many new ideiu from them. The beat feature of the open discussion was a short talk -by Dr. Henry Louia Smith, president of David son College, who told bis bear I uu Kiciuuui UI icicnm^, giving them many practical ideas, especially aa to the teach ing of English. Following the discussion Dr. Smith spoke for thirty minutes on The Recitation,” which be presented as the most vitalthiog in teaching. A teacher's suc cess in training and educating the yonog mind depends practi cally altogether on the recita tion and in the manner in which it is conducted. He pointed out the mistakes which a majority of teachers make in this regard and keep on making. These mistakes he had discovered in yearn of experience, trying all means and methods, weeding out the ineffectual and finally settling on what he found to be the best. Every word tbe speak cr uttered went home sod every teueber in the audience felt that he wnareceiving instruction from a master mind The attention Df- , Smith received was admirable. At fk« _d r*_ A .l.Lt --- -—— VI. IgUIIIU * address, Mr. B. Lee Wilson, on behalf of the citiaens of Daltes, extended nn invitation to tbe teachers to dine at the two hotels of the town. The dele gates (ram Gastonia, Sooth Point ■nd River Bead townships were assigned to the White. House, while those from Dallas, Cbor tyville and Crowder's Mountain townships were assigned to the Hoflaan House. Elegant din netu were 'served at each place and the many good .things to eat were partaken of with a reitsh by all so fortune as to be present. During and iramsdiately fol lowing the 'dinner boor the Dallas Band furnished music in the eoort hoots. Shortly sfter * Em meeting was again called to order by President Wray. Resolutions waft thanking the pe<mle of Dallas for their grsciou* hospi trtity in entertaining the teach msof the eoanty, of whom there were 11* present. Rev. Plato T. pnr 'sra, pas lor of Trinity Methodist church, Charlotte, waa ou the program fprjan ad drtaa In tbe afternoon but, on aeeoaat of late trains, waa un £?• i?** *"»*?*• la his atead Dr- Smith again spoke to the delight of dl preMnt. He took u hi* subject "Mistakes of Teachers," Tbe subject was ooeywbicb loos experience had familiarized him with and be handled tbe topic in a way which could not fail to claim the an* divided atteniou of tbe entire audience. Space forbids any attempt here at a synopsis of tba address. Suffice ft to say that it was masterful, convincing, educating. Every teacher wbo beard it went away better pre pared than ever to instruct the young minds which arc seeking knowledge in the public schools. It is to be hoped that the as sociation will be ao fortunate as to be able to acenre Dr, Saaith for an address again during tba year. At tbe morning session tba by laws were so amended as to allow the association to hold its meetings in other towns in the county besides the county seat. A resolution was introduced end passed to tbe effect that the next meeting of the association to be held in Gestoaia Jan. 12. 1907. LOVELL LOCALS. Nr.

While strolling* out Race street the other evening, aa old' gentlemso, whose silvery locks sad feeble stride showed that be bad passed many of the mile stones ou bis journey through life, encountered n number of youngsters on their way borne from a nearby school. The old man’s benevolent face lighted with a smile aa he stopped and engaged the brightest-looking one of the boys in conversation. "Do vou study hard in school? the old man asked of the bog. "Well, I don’t hurt myself," was the youngster’s reply. "But,” ■aid the men, "yon ought to ftudy hard, and some day you may be president of tbc United States.’’ "Yes, sir,’’ the lad replied, "bat 1 don’t think I ever will be President. I'm n Democrat, yon see." —A second crop of Hoas ap ples is somewhat unusual. Mr. J, H. HuSstetler, of Lx)welf, while gathering some cotton a few days ago, came across a Horn appla tree -on which -ho found a twig with three well formed apples of the second crop. Mr. HofisteUer tars this is the first ease of this kind he has encountered. PART VI. AlMVJATIOM.
