because thou art the gladdest
That ever he looked on
Because no ways to wander
Allure me any more,
With white sea dreams to ponder
All day beside thy door
Because there's not rover
But wearies in day,
And not a faithless lover
But sorrow doth repay
rove the world of shadows,
A wrath Of the blue rain,
And In the dawn's deep meadows
Return to thee again

To the Teachers of North Carolina.
Communicated.
Ihe Southern Educational Asso-
citation meets this year, July IL, 12
and l3, at Louisville, Ky. It was
organized by Southern teachers,
chiefly those from North Carolina,
at Morehead, July, 1890, and held
a regular session at that time. The
next meeting was attended by about
600 OF the most prominent educa-
tors OF the South and other sections,
some seventeen States being repre-
sented, at Chattanooga lookout
Mountain). In 1892, the attend
ance was nearly two thousand, and
the meeting held at Atlanta, in the
State Capitol. The leading institu-
tions of the whole South were rep
resented, and the debates and ex-
hibits of the highest value.
For the present year, admirable
arrangements have been made.
Teachers from North Carolina can
take very direct route via Ashe-
vile and Knoxville across Ken
tucky to Louisville, stop over for
Association, and then proceed to
the Chicago Worlds Fair and re-
turn.
The six hundred teachers of Lou
isville have taken a deep interest in
the meeting, and the citizens of
| Louisville have rendered special
hospitalities for the 18th Thurs
day There will also be special
excursion to the Mammoth Cave,
which is near the line of the rail
road from Nashville to Louisville.
This cave, the greatest of modern
travellers, Bayard Taylor, declared
to be the most wonderful natural
curiosity to be seen in the known
world.
The best talent of the South will
discuss the following subjects:
l. The New Education"
2. "The Best Means of Providing e
Normal instruction for Teachers
Already in the Field"
3. Textbooks for Southern
Schools"
4. Chow to Make Common
Schools Efficient, Especially il
Sparsely Settled Communities"
5. "The Financial Administra
tiation of the Public School Sys
tenn"
Many distinguished visitors from
institutions of the North and Eas

session, teachers en- route to Chi
cago will arrive in time for the Ma
tional Educational Association, ani
the international Congress of Edu
. cation.
| It will be the opportunity Of
lifetime to meet the educators 0
| the South, and many of those il
| other sections, and from foreig,

ileges afforded will make it a tri
j never to be forgotten. The expens
j will be very moderate, as will b

! roads having already agreed to on
J rate fare.
