Me excellent progam prepared by

appropriate observance of Memorial
Day was presented in its entirety, and
drew out an audience that filled the

The addresses were eloquent and

The procession which formed after the
closing Of exercises in the opera house,
and marched 10 the cemetery, was ex-
~ceptionally large, and the ceremony
observed by the Grand Army in decora-
ting the soldier graves, which followed,
was impressive and imposing. The

crowned with a marked degree Of sue
cess, nothing having been omitted in
the preparations made that could, in the
smallest degree. contribute to the ex-
ceptional success resulting.

At last I have been to Buie's Greek,
in Harnett county. For long time [
had wanted to go. I had heard of the
work being done there by Bro. Camp
bell and his associates. Everybody who
has kept at all in touch with the move
ment of educational matters in North
Carolina, within recent years, has heard
of this truly wonderful school.
Wonderful on many accounts. For a
school to accomplish what this one has
with the seeming disadvantages under
which it has had to labor is little short
of miraculous. It shows clearly that
the "man at the helm" is one of those
men so much needed to-day-a man
who instead of waiting for something
70 turn up" turns up something. Bro.
Campbell brings things to pass. Start
} ing eleven years ago with no capital to
back it except brains and energy, the
growth OF the school has been steady
year by year. From STUDENT body
numbering 16 gathered from the homes
Immediately around the small public
school building In January, 1887, with
a faculty OF two, the school has grown
year by year, adding to Its equipment,
it's buildings, its faculty and students,
until to-day 1t stands before the public
as the largest private school in North
Carolina east or south of Raleigh-and
still it grows. The boys and girls are
those from far and near, and the faculty
already numbering eight has just had
Its number increased by the addition
of Prof. J. V. Devenny, a Master OF
Arts, of Wake Forest College; Trinity
College has its representative in the
faculty In the person of Prof. P. d
Woodall, who has been connected with
the school for one and one-half years.

Dunn. A long way of the Railroad,
you say too inaccessible. If you could
only see that crowd of young men, who
have found the way there from Bruins
wick county, on the south to Rocking
ham, on the north and from Washing
ton on the east to Burke on the west,
together with a host of others from
sixteen other counties in North Care
lima you would be convinced that they
could at least find Buie's Creek if they
tried. But it is not so far out OF the
way. If you will only drop Bro. Camp
bell note stating what day. you will
reach Dunn, you may leave Whining

having representatives, from homes OF
various degrees ci wealth and influence
and all shades OF religious belief.
When I saw this host of young men
and young ladies, I asked myself the
question, "Why are they here?" And
l determined to find out, and believe
that I have. Every school that be-
CONES a fixture has certain character
istics which tend to reproduce them
selves year by year as one generation
after another takes Its place in the
school. In casting about for some
reasons why SO many young men choose
this school, with its seeming disad-
vantages as to location, and why SO
many parents should select it as the
school for their children, I sought to
find out what these characteristics
were.
The parent knows, when sending a
child to Buie's Creek, that the body
will not be liable to injury. The
school is in the country, beautiful,
rolling, billy country, with green fields,
pine trees, flowing streams. The drain
age is perfect, the water is pure. The
