LEADING EDUCATORS ALREADY HERE
An Interesting Programme has Been Arranged
and all Teachers and Persons Interested
in Education are Invited
to Attend.

Throughout her history, North Caro-
lima has been blessed with some of the
best preparatory schools of the South.
At a time when our white population
did not exceed twenty thousand, thirty
years before the University opened her
doors, the private school of David Cald-
well was attracting students from every
State south of the Patomac.
Tate's Academy, Crowfield Academy,
Wilson'S School, and others of later date
were important factors in the making
of kingly men. AT the close of the 18th
century North Carolina had over twenty
five incorporated academies. These and
other famous preparatory schools have
been succeeded n this day by dozens
of private schools scattered over the
State that are doing much to solve the
educational problems of these later
days.

Nome Except the state Normal.

The state board of education has de-

which has its authority from the leg

Heretofore dozen or more of the best
schools in the state have enjoyed the
power of comforting state certificates
on their graduates. Under the new
rules only the state board of education
and the state normal college can issue
such certificates.
