LJ il. 11 WRITES Thinks Discussion at Board Meet ing and Journal Report Both Unfair to Him. MADE COMPLETE INVENTORY Did Not Have Access to Books But Proceeded on Informa tion Furnished Him. Editor Journal: -In your account of the proceedings of the meeting of the Board of Alder men, in your isue of Nov. 9th. I notice some statements that are mis leading to say the least. I don't know whether your reporter misunderstood some things that were said, or not, as as I was not present. I refer to that part of the meeting dealing with the water and light inventory taken by me and my report to the Aldermen in re gard to it. Anyone not acquainted with the matter would be apt to conclude from reading your account of the meeting that my work had practically been re pudiated or set aside by the special reommittee, (committee being coin- posed of the members of the Water and Light committee of the Board, with AUcrman Baxter and Collector Thomas added, to whom my report was finally referred. But I have been informed by persons who were present thai the chairman of the committtee gave me credit for having made a complete inventory. In fact, some of theofhcials of the Water and Light Department have compliment ed ine upon the thoroughness of the work. . The objection seems to be to the ,e port I made' to the ' Aldermen. For your information 4 ' will 'state that my inventory and my report ate two se pa ste documents. Among other tilings, my report con veyed to the. Board information as to the total number of consumers of elec tricity and water and the number and kinds of lights, faucets, etc., at shown by '.the' inventory. ' It also, gave the number of excess lights, faucets, etc., ii favor of. the- inventory, as shown by comparing the totals of the inventory with the list furnished me by the Water and Light 'Department1,' said list being furnished in obedience to a resolution passed by, the Board instructing the collector tcf urnish me with a complete list. . Now, id inahing up my report,- this "complete list'!-isVwhat I compared my inventory with, and not the books as I had nothing to- do with them; but the list' was supposed to be k copy of. the books at that ,time.fyet, according to your account' of the meeting it seems that Jhe committee found thtjny re port was incorrect because the differ ence between , .my figures and i the Departments books;rwhen: they.com- unferinented grape jucie,;. 50, fudge, .50.

Baxter wants to find the whereabouts of a m.in who went, to his store last Saturday night anil carried off a coat suit on approval, forgetting to return it. The man informed one of the sales ladies that. he wanted to inspect .)mL ladie's coat suits. A'trr looking over several design he selected two mWscb' suits, a dark yray and a navy I'Lie whipcord and seated thai he would take one of them. lie said he v. noi positive which one hi wide would like best and asked to be allowed to take both home on approval. The' clerk thought that he was known to i la proprietor and allowed him to do thi rSTTCr.he had paid for one of the suits. She asked him his name and he replied that it was R. L. Edwards. She charged the suit according to the prac tice whn goods are sent out on approval. "Mr. Edwards" stated that he would return in half an hour the suit which his wife did not decide to keep but up to the present time neither the man nor the suit has been seen and it is supposed that his wife decided to keep both. The police were informed of the matter and are working on a clue which may result in the arrest of the man on a warrant charging him with obtaining goods under false pretenses. Mr. Baxter has seen the man on several occasions on the streets here, but did not know him by name. It is thought likely that the name he gave was an assumed, one. MONUMENT FUND GROWS Contributions yesterday to the De- Graffenried Monument Fund amount ed to over fifty-dollars the largest sum secured in any one day since the movement was started. The Chamber of Commerce, the City Beautiful Club anc otlier organizations are co-operating in the work. The fund is now' more than five hundred dollars. Those who are raising it say they will not relax their efforts until the necessary amount has been secured. LODGE OF SORROW Annual Memorial Service of the Elks Sunday December 1st. The Elks annual Memorial service will be held at the Athens on Sunday af ternoon, Dec. 1st. Former Lieutenant Governor Francis D. Winston of Wilson Lodge will deliver the address and the eulogy will be delivered by I arty I Moore, Esq .of this city The members of New Bern 'Lodge who have died during the year are Capt. E. A. Jack. Percy S. Cox, C. W. Munger, Mayer Hahn and Wm. E. Smith, making a total of twenty since the institution Of the lodge here. The committee 1n charge of the ser vice is composed of Esteemed Lecturing Knight A. T. Willis, Esquire Garrison Farrow and Tyler Daniel G. Smaw. . The musical program is being ar ranged by Charles T. Pumphrey. pared the two, was not as great as wax stated in 'my report. While as a matter of fact my report does not refer to the books .at all, except in stating that I had assisted the bookkeeper in entering the inventory on the books. As the differences given in my re port, in favor of the inventory are based on a comparison of the totals of the in ventory with those of the. "complete list"' furnished me by the Water and Light Department, while the differences found by the committee were "based on a comparison--of the inventory with the books of the Department, yon can readily see that, tire committee was un fair to me ; it is also' evident that there is no reason Tor changing the figures in my" report dealing with the; differences foifnd by me; unless there' is to be,an bther 'list" furnished me with which 'to compare my inventory. - v -i Your account also says. that- it was stated "that? after Mr: DaU had gotten a list pf the consumers it was found thai he had failed p secur a number of names that Were on the books.' This so'unds like I had gootteen'up that list myself from the books, ; vhile (as stated before) 1 had nothing to do with as ft was furnished by the Department. So, if there were any names on the books that were not put on the Department's "complete" list, it was no fault of mine and I don't care to accept the respon sibility for it. , - '.. ' ' My report was finished and report dated June 22, 1912. As the comparisons contained in the report seem to be the chief objection to it, maybe its publication would be per mitted if the comparisons were omitted. Respectfully, : GEO. D.. DAIL. ' T" TEACHERS' MEET Greensboro Expects From One Thousand to Twelve Hundred To Attend Assembly. MAKE IT ML ST MEETING YET Men und Women of National Rep utation on Program lor Addresses and Pupers. ".reensboro, Nov. 16. - .reciisl.on !u.-.y geuin;; ready for the tvveiuy ninth meeting of the Norili C.irolin.i Tearlars' Assembly which will meet in this citv, Wednesday to Saturday, Nove.nber 27-.5D, the intention and desire of both the officers of the Asso ciation Mid the local committee .having the matter In charge being to make it the bi;;gest and most successful meet ing in the entire history of the Assembly. The program calls for fifty three separate papers and addresses, inc lud ingsjnany names of national reputation. Among these may be mentioned Hon. E. T. Fairchild, Superintendent of Public Instruction of Kansas and Presi dent of the National Educational Association; Doctor D. Strayer, pro fessor of the Teachers' College of Col umbia University and author of "Teac ing Process"; Miss Annie S. George, President of the Montesseori American Committee and the greatest American authority on the MontesseOri method ; Miss Naomi Norsworthy, of the Te.irh ers' College of Columbia University, and a noted authority on primary work. The matter of board and lodging for the visiting taechers, which has fre quently caused trouble, is being handled in a systematic manner. The Greens boro Woman's Club has undertaken the task of securing homes for seven to eight hundred teachers, and as far as possible homes will be assigned in advance of the meeting at the uniform rate of $1,50 per day. A committee headed by Prs. C. P. Langley of 836 West Market street has the matter in charge, and those wishing accommo dations reserved should communicate with her. This is in addition to the regular hotels which can take about three hundred teachers. A Bureau of Information and Gen eral Headquarters will also be main tained and all teachers have been re quested to report there immediately upon their arrival. City pride as well as interest in education and regard for the hundreds of visiting teachers has caused extra efforts to be made towards the success of the meeting; this being especially true of Greensboro which takes es pecial pride in the fact that it was the first city in the State to levy a special tax for graded schools and the center of the county which blazed the way in the matter of rural taxation. It is expected that from one thou sand to twelve hundred tachers will be in attendance, and unless all signs fail, the meeting will be a striking success from every standpoint. MR. SUMMERELI. TO WED. Cards are out announcing the mar riage on next Wednesday at the Episco pal church, Creenvi'.le, N. C, of Mr. Joseph J. Sumnierell, son of Rev. and Mrs. J. N. H. Summerell of this city, and Miss Lee N. Brown of that place. Immediately after the ceremony the young, couple will leave for a bridal trip to several northern cities. Upon returning they will make their home at - Wilson; where Mr. Summerell is engaged in business. i ' MRS. LEGGETT DEAD. Mrs. Ann Elizabeth Leggett died at the home of her daughter, Mrs. N. M. Farrow who resides on B. street in Bridgetent yesterday afternoon, aged sixty-four years. The funeral will: be conducted from the Methodist ' church at Bridge ton this afternoon at 2 o'clock by Rev.
