PHONE NO. 60. FRIDAY, JUNE 16, 1916. INDOSTHYj Gastonia never falls down when there's a call to duty. This was again strikingly demonstrated yes terday when Captain Bulwinkle of the Gaston Guards had 30 or more applications for enlistment within a few hours after be had received or ders to get his company together . for border duty. You can safely count on Gastonia whenever there la a call for service. ' It Is gratifying to note the con tantly Increasing interest Gas tonians manifest in their public schools. Commencement exercises draw capacity houses, no matter , what else is going on. . Another in . dication of this is the pride with which one hears so many people . nowadays refer to "our schools". They have Just cause to be proud any better schools and few have as good ones. Just now we are in the , midst of commencement exercises which mark the close of the best year in the history of the schools. Next year, with handsome and modern new buildings in each end of town Supt. Wray and his able corps of assistants will be able to make even a better showing. Stand by "your" schools "our" schools. .They constitute the biggest single asset we have. GLYNN OX WILSON. ... Eloquent Trlbnte to the PresMeut by Kx Governor. (From ' ex-Governor Glynn's Noml , sating Speech.) The man who is President of the United States today measures up to the best traditions of a great ofllce. He has been wise with a wisdom that is steeped in the traditions or his country, with a wisdom that has been disciplined by training and broadened by instruction. He has been prudent with the pru dence of one who has within his hands the destiny of a hundred mil lion people. He has been firm with the firm ness that proceeds from deep con viction, with the firmness that is grounded in a dutv well defined. He has been courageous with the courage that places country above self, with the courage that follows duty wherever it may lead; McADEXVLLLE WAS DEFEATED. Carvers Ilerrnits Showed Marked Ability In Exhibition Game Satur- day Stanton Allowed the 11 f tors Only One Safe Hit Gastonia Fans Are Weil Pleased. Manager Carver and his crew ad ministered a severe drubbing to Mc Adeaville's strong aggregation of players in an exhibition game at Lo ray Park Saturday afternoon, 10 to 1. Stanton did the twirling for tne locals and bis pitching was the out standing feature of the game, there being only one safe hit garnered oft his delivery during the contest. Clemens for Gastonia featured witn the willow, having a single, double and a triple to his credit out of five times up. ' lleAdenville's team was composed of several ex-leaguers, namely, Togo" Bentley, Van Pelt and Fred mm, mancnesier, wno was sus pended from the Charlotte club sev eral days ago for assaulting Umpire Lauzon, was also in the McAdenville line-up and did the receiving. Gastonia baseball enthusiasts wno saw the game Saturday are unani mous in their opinion that Manager Carver has assembled a fast and nappy team that will compete with any of the teams in the circuit.

University News-Letter. 8ome time ago we visited a rare kind of mill village in Illniois, some If miles east of St. Louis. The pop ulation numbers 70. Every family In It with only five exceptions owns Its own home. " There la" no civic organization, no mayor, no policeman, no Jail, no bar room. There is no need and no de mand for any of these luxuries or civilization. Only two boys born In the village have ever left It, and one of them baa since returned. Only one girl born In the village has ever moved out of it. It la a stable mill popula tion. ' . . , There is no more beautiful Tillage in America than the Tillage of O Clalre and It Is a mill Tillage. The lake, the boat pavilion, the amusement park, the kindergarten, the public school and the common hail, are the property of the mill hands, not the mill owners. They are all maintained in order by a tax paid out of the mill -wages according the amount earned by each opera- Via factory book-keeper keeps the t, and the fairness of It has r teca sueEtioned. He has been dignified with me dignity that is self-forgetting and self-respecting, with the dignity thai conservevthe majesty of the great est office n the world. - He has been patient with the pa tience which believes and trusts that truth crushed to earth will ' rise again; with the patience that can endure and wait, watch and pray, for the certain vindication of justice, humanity and right. He has been patriotic with a pa triotism that is as pure and strong as the faith that moved the fathers when they made our country free. -No president since the Civil War has had as crucial problems to solve; and no President has displayed a grasp more sure, a 'Statesmanship more profound. Assailed by the wolves of privi lege, he has pulled their claws and drawn their teeth. Assaulted by partiasn envy be bas shamed his traducers into silence and made friend and foe go for ward together in the paths of na tional progress. He has fired our patriotism witn a new ardor; he has breathed into our ancient traditions a new vigor and a new life. He has added strength to Ameri ca's courage and mingled mercy witb America s strength. He has fastened the brakes V)f Jus ticeiipon the wheels of power; ne has'xieared the mists from the tem ple where our liberties are enshrin ed. And when the history of these days comes to be written, and the children of tomorrow read their .v'a tion's story, when time shall have dispelled all misconception, and tne years shall have rendered their im partial verdict, one name will shine in golden splendor upon the page that is blackened with the tale of Europe's war, one name will repre sent the triumph of American prin ciples over the hosts of darkness and of death. That name will be the name of the great President who has made Democracy proud that he is a Dem ocrat, and made Americans proud that he is an American. It will be the name of the student and the scholar who has kept his country true to its faith in a time that tried men's souls; the name of the statesman who has championed the cause of American freedom wherever he found it oppressed; tne name of the patriot who has im planted his country's flag on the highest peak to which humanity has yet aspired; the name that carried the torch of progress to victory a gain; the name of Woodrow Wilson, President and President to be. SUMMER SCHOOL OPENS. Special to The Gazette. CHAPEL HILL, June 20. In both the enthusiasm manifested ana the number of students so far regis tered the twenty-ninth session of the University Summer School, which opened Thursday, June lofn, has surpassed all previous sessions. The enrollment on the last day of registration was 729, within two of the total for the whole of last year.
