the best ^year’s work in the hi^ry
of the sellers. irTis felt that nioro
genmiie work hae been done ihanjn

. aoulh of the cams had 'an eight or
nine months term for the first-Jime
in the history of'the coiunty. The
attend^ce has been as well as could
be CTpected under the financial con-
ditioas of the country. All of,the
longer term schools made sufficient
attendance'- to entitle them to the
same number of teachers that they
hiid for the past year. The attend^
ance in the elementary grades of
the Raeford school was sufficient to
entitlie them toi ten teachers in plM®
of nine for the past T^ear. The pro
health was very good for a.man of
his advanced age, having just en
tered his 81st year. He was born
and reared hi Quewhiffle township,
Cumberland, now Hoke County, near
^andy Grove Presbyterian church, of
which he was for many years an
honored deacon. Mr. Giliis was en
gaged in fanning and for a number
of years operated a turpentine dis
tillery and mercantile busassss. For
many y^ars he was postmaster at
Gillisville, and at one time was a
Commissioner of Cumberland county.
About ten years ago the iJ. S. Gov
ernment took oyer a paJft of this

mencement ex.ercises—speeches, p'ay.s,
readings, recitations, declamations,
orations, and graduation exercises—
have been given in the nearly 6,000
public schools of the Stste. Public
speakers have been secured from
every source to make the many com-
I mencement addresses. State officials
including the Governor, attorney-
general aiid state superintendent of
public instruction, county officials,
ministers and other public men, all
have been engaged in addressing the
youth of the. State.
These 875,000 sehofol children will
put way'their hooks, pnd no longer
listen for the ringing of the bell or
watch the hands of the clock for
“school time.” Instead, some will
take to the fields and give the day’s
time to agricultural pumuiljs. Others
will fihd Odd jobs or summer posi
tions, from which they hope to make
a little extra money.
