DEATH OF THE HON. MARK ALEXANDER.

This estimable gentleman quietly
passed away on the morning of the 9th
INST, at the residence of his son.in-
law, Nortleet Smith, Esq. For the last
few years he has been in failing health.
and to his friends his end was not unex-
pected. Mr.. Alexander was born in
Mecklenburg county, Va. Feb. 7th. 1892.
In 1915 he represented his county In The
State Legislature. In 1919 he was elected
to represent his district in the United
States Congress and served continuously
in that body without opposition until
1881 he was again elected in that year,
defeating Gen. Brodnax. After his re.
tirement from Congress he served repeat
eddy in the Legislature of his native
State. In politics he was Democrat of
the old school. Modest and unassuming,
he lived and died the high toned christian
gentleman. Full of years and of honors,
with the blessed hope of Immortality, be
has gone to his final account Peace to

AGAINST SCHOOI.PRIZ

The system of prizes which, at present,
prevails in nearly all our schools and col.
leges seems to have grown to large pro-
portions in the last few years.
Although it meets with general favor
from the public, and the awarding of the
prizes contributes no little gusto to Com
mencement exercises, it appears to one
(who has never received prize publicly
aWarded) to be attended with manifold
objections and lasting evils.
The writer is aware that for a system
to obtain general, is strong
argument in its favor, and he is not ignor-
ant OF the fact that some good may be &C
compllshed by the custom now existing,
but the entailing evils of such a system
far outweighs the argument in its favor.
Scholarship, the appreciation of friends
and relations. and an approving conscience
OF duty well performed, are the natural
rewards ofwell-doing in the school as well

SEEN AND HEARD BY THE ED [T0R.

We promised in former issue to
give our readers some jottings as we
travel. But we have seen and heard
so much since last we wrote that it is
difficult matter to call out any very
important items without making them
too long for the short time we have
to write. We write between trains,
and so have very little time. We
wrote from Raleigh last.
On Monday. End inst, we boarded
the train at Raleigh with asnumber of

We found ourselves at Pigeon Riv-

Thence we ratified over mountain
sides and through beautiful, wales in

reached at 4 o'clock on Tuesday 3rd
inst the lofty little town Of agnes
Vile. All possible arrangements had
been made for providing the members
Of the Press with good, pleasant. and
hospitable homes. The citizens of
Waynesville gave the editors of the
East and other sections hearty well
come, and made them feel quite sure
that no other place in North Carolina
could have shown more whole souled
hospitality than the one selected for
the meeting.
A welcome given by the Mayor of
the town, Which we print elsewhere,
called forth the heartiest response of
applause by the members of the pres S.

have now a higher ideal Of journalism

as elsewhere, and ought, perhaps, to be
the only rewards of a laudable ambition,
whether in young or older pupils.
1t is the purpose Of this article to point
out some of the objectlonal features of
prizes as now awarded, and to suggest
system of less doubtful propriety.
l. Many students who strive for prize
in particular study, do it at the neglect
of other studies. and at the same time the
study receiving most attention may be of
least Importance. He Injuries mis- educa-
ton to obtain the prize.
2. The teacher or awarding committee,
although ever so able. judiclous, and CON-
scientious, seldom escape the accusation
of ignorance or partiality: and lasting ILL
feeling on the part of the students toward
each other or towards the teacher or COM
mittee is frequently engendered by the
system.
8. Only few contend; the others, on
account of their real or supposed inferior
ity are discouraged "a Their than melted by
the contest.
T. A prize is offered for the best exam
nation paper of class in an academy. 1t
is poor class, and the best is just emit
tied to proficiency. The best paper takes
1t though the winner b. a lazy boy. De-
pending on his scholarship as indicated by
his medal, he goes to college with high ex-
pectations from relatives and friends
but ingloriously fails.
5. With the less scrupulous but more
ambitious, temptation to unfair means
render the system very Objectionable.
Many pupil has obtained a grade far
above his merits by means which honor
able ones would scorn and despise.
6. 1t is we'll known that III all except
Graded Schools the classification Of stu
dents is very poor. Students OF different
ages. attainments, intellectual vigor and
early training render some favored ones
of class superior to the others, and i
they possess ambition, as those generally
do who contend, they can with much less
exertion pluck the trophy from their fel
low students. There may BIZ in the class
students of far more industry, ambition
and faithfulness, but the prize eludes thei
grasp. Faithfulness is what is commend
ed by the great Teacher, but in this cas-
native intellect, or previous advantages
or both supplant it. Faithfulness for thu
most part is ignored.
Were students to contend for something
which could be obtained by the mos
faithful, or which very large per cent
of them could reach, there would be mucl
less objection to offering prizes. 1t is tru
the more favored ones would have t.
strive but little, but much the create
number would be stimulated to exertion
which should be the prime object Q
q prizes, and those, too, would be reache
who generally make the best successes L
life. These latter are practically reache
with the Roll of Honor ''Golden Re
ports'' or some other plan of reaching
large number.
