schools where all the children Of our
community are educated are now so APP
parent that the number OF voters who
would be willing to repeal the tax is
infnitesimally small.
Believing that what has proved to be
so advantageous to my own community
would be advantageous, in a greater or
less degree, to every community in North
Carolina, l should be very happy il
could in any way induce my fellow
citizens throughout the State to take a
step which l know they will never re-
greet.
Without the general adoption Of the
principle of local taxation for schools, i
see no hope for North Carolina to take
her proper place among the States of
this Union.
For more than half century the State
has been attempting to establish salts
factory public school system for the edu-
cation of all the people, and in many
respects the effort has been heroic. Yet
the fact stares us in the face now that,
according to the latest United States
census, about one-fourth of all our white
people cannot read and write, and,
counting the colored people, that nearly
forty per cent Of our entire population
is illiterate.
Without censuring any one for this
condition or attempting to locate the re-
sponsibility therefor and with no inten-
ton to criticize any one who may choose
to take a different view Of the situation,
could not myself regard q failure to
vote the tax to improve our schools as
anything less than stupendous blunder.
l know that our people are poor and
that the times are hard, but when 1
realize that the tax proposed is only ten
cents on 500 of property or one dollar
on $1,000 of assessment, and that about
three-fourths Of the taxpayers would
increase their tax less than one dollar,
and when / am informed that the result
would be an increase of 80 or 75 per
cent in our public school facilities, [
cannot help believing that, if they can
become thoroughly acquainted with the
facts, the people will vote this small tax
and pay it chesctrlly.
IT is my faith in this last proposition
TAFT makes me regret my ;1ub,.'ty to do
more to aid your committee IN its most
laudahle efforts to place be:,re the peo-
pie fair representation Of the advant-
ages Of local taxation for public schools.
Very truly yours,

DIR. M'IvER's SPEECH.

In substance, DIR. McIver said:
To those who know North Carolina
and love the State, the few days between
now and the tenth Of August constitute
q period of time short and precious.
The amount of work necessary to "a
rouse public thought, and the heavy,
sluggish apathy Of those who have little
idea of what real education means and to
Fhom the August election means most,
gether with the indisposition on the
4 of most Of those who are them
lVes educated and fairly prosperous to
consider the question of the education
pf others as a matter of amy moral or
material interest to them, are enough
to bring dismay to the most sanguine
optimist, provided that optimist be not
one who has seen for the past fifteen
years, just such Indifference and apathy
continually though slowly giving place
to. wiser craftsmanship and more
Christian philosophy.
If it has taken this State twenty years
10 adopt the principle of local taxation
in less than twenty towns and cities the
friends of local taxation must not des-
pair il they make little Roadway at
first when they attempt to secure the
extension Of the principle to villages and
the country districts.
Nowhere in North Carolina will there
Be q 6ercer fight against local taxation
for schools than some Of us can recall in
Durham. Raleigh and other localities not
many years ago.
The gradual and silent conversion Of
nearly all the old opposition, wherever
II existed. 90 that few people now re-
member how bitter it was, gives me
courage as we enter upon this campaign
- education and for education in every
township in North Carolina. When the
history Of this State shall have been
properly written no page of it will be
brighter than that which tells the story
Of how, with all the audacity and fervor
Of youth small band Of earnest hopeful
spirits fought during the past two de-
cadee in behalf of more liberal public
policy i'm the education Of all the people.
But I come not to speak Of the past
except as it may encourage Us in our
present stupendous task. For il there
be any enc who supposes the task is not
stupendous he is simply ignorant of the
state Of the public mind.
But every objection urged against local
taxation now has been heard and an
swered and silenced by experiment in
Goldsboro, Raleigh, Durham, Winston,
Charlotte and other localities.

Tax Aroused.

Chapel Hill, n. ", July o.-Nopeei"i''
IT was large and enthusiastic au-
iaience that assembled in the University
chapel on Thursday evening to near the
discussion of the public school law, local
taxation and the August election. 1T
seemed proper that this meeting snould
he held during the session or the UNI
versity Summer School. 1t is OF such
vital concern to teachers; it concerns
eyery interest of the University, it had
a local significance, it was from orange
county that State Senator Archibald
ID. Murphy, the father of the public
school system, proclaimed that the prl-
mary public school must be the basis OF
our educational system and that the
iUniversity was the palladium OF civil
liberty, and the nursery of moral great
uess." 1t was thus in faith that the
system Of public schools began and with
0creased faith they will move forward,
overcoming obstacles, prejudices and
false notions. The movement for better
schools cannot be thwarted. Dante

OF forty-nine States and Territories
North Carolina has the shortest school
term, pays teachers least, expends fol-
each child at school less than all but
one, South Carolina; has the ightest
school tax of all but six. The most
lliterate population of all but six; the
most iIliterate white people Of all except
the Territory Of New Mexico.
Most Of the school funds in the United
States are raised by local taxes. North
Carolina is behind in this. Our general
State tax for school is one of the larg.
est, only six States having a heavier
one, but other States add local taxes to
the general tax; we do not.
We are not taxed too heavily for other
things. For only two other States
Nevada and Idaho, have as low q tax
rate for all purposes as North Carolina.
The remedy for lliteracy is better
schools and longer terms, provided by
more money, which must be raised by
Dcal taxation.
Supt. M. C. s. Noble, OF Wilmington,
discussed the new and striking features
Of the school law. He emphasized the
townships system, local tax, State board
of examiners and life license to teach.

force, presented the speaker, President

was scarcely more than child herseii,
being but about 16 years OF age; puo
tradition attaches to her most excelien'
indpment. and a maternal instinct in
calculably strong. Besides did she not
know her boy had been foretoid by the
anoel? ssThou shalt call His name |
Jesus. because He shall save His people |

Him the. more because of His illustrious
destiny. but her heart could not be
but lifted up in commendable pride at
this reflection, as she gazed for the first
time into His dear, sweet face and His
tiny blue eyes looked wonderingly into
hers. Then the news quickly went
abroad, angels from Heaven bearing
about the tidings of the birth OF their
King They told the shepherds upon the
plains of Salem and the wise men OF
the east and all of them entered the lit
tie caravansary OF the village ofBethle-
hem, and saw the babe and its mother
living down in the same room where,
were the camels and horses and oxen
of strangers, who had come up to
Jerusalem to be taxed. Angels sang
the praises of the newly born anda new
star appeared IN the sky. The wise men
brought gifts and laid them al the feet
of the mother.
This was the first Christmas and
Mary was the first person In all the
world to receive Christmas gift, and
hers was Infinitely greater in value
than all combined, that have been since
received by all the people who have
lived or. died. Her gift, the Christ
child; she honored above oil the WON
en- who have lived or died, in being made
the mother of Him who should 'be
called Jesus, because He shall save His
people from their sins"
The angel song to the shepherds had
for It's burden "peace to men of good
will" One could scarcely think of 9
Christmas that is other than gladstone
and joyous. The clouds may be thick
overhead, while in north countries the
earth may have a sheet Of snow, and in
the southlands there may be thunder
and rain. But there are warmth, sun
