LOYAL TO THEIR SCHOOLS.
Pupils In Friendly Rivalry Over the
Teachers Bazaar.

BY industry and well directed efforts the
management of the teachers bazaar are
now in 4 position TO feel that success Will
crown their efforts.
So far the most remarkable feature of
the coming bazaar has been the manner in
which the subject has been kept out of
the schools. So afraid have the teachers
been of intrenching upon the time of their
pupils to the detriment of their scholarly
advancement, that exaggerated care has
been used to avoid the subject during lesson
time. But general interest is growing So
strong that the pupils themselves are TAX
ing up the subject with intelligence and
enthusiasm.
Each high school seems to have a par
ticular fad, and great is the mystery sur
rounding each. The Western is collect
ing buttons, whose ultimate use is involved
in mystery, and at recess times tie bray of
the camel fills the air. The Central follows
the Injunction, Let not thy left hand
know what thy right hand doeth," for
each year has its secret which no other
year must know. Atthe Eastern, sectional
spirit runs high; their one purpose seems
to be to whip the Central and they
despair not because of disparity in size.
AT the business, yeast powder boxes. yeast
powder bottles, vaseline bottles, ashes, old
kid gloves, and, in fact, well assorted
junk, shop outfit is being solemnly col
lected, and the spirits sectional in another
sense. Ii seems to be the ambition of every
section and of almost every section teacher
TO come ont on top in the race for wealth.
and the principal seiZes the opportunity to
inculcate business axioms and instill busi-
ness methods.
A scheme of this sort, If carried to an
extreme, might be an injury to the schools;
but, properly subordinated To legitimate
work, it is doing great ceal 10 cause
unity of feeling and purpose in each school,
composed, as they are, of pupils frcm all
parts of the city; to produce sympathy and
good feeling among The teachers, of whom
a large proportion are new, and who also
come with diverse interests and prejudices;
and TO create an intimacy between teach
ers and pupils, who meet here on common
ground. as equal promoters of the worthy
cause. good effects OF which cannot be over
estimated.

This shows that North Carolina had
about one-ninth of the fighting popula-
ton in the Southern Confederacy.
Therefore her contribution to its armies
must have been about one-ninth of its
whole strength. This would make it
then ,125,000, without counting in the
Border States, which had $4,000 young
men in 1860.
ANY thorough study of the actual
statistics will give the rebels anywhere
from 1900, 900 to ], 100000 men.
