THE OPENING OF, THE NORMAL

Superintendent Mebane was asked yes

us of the institution.
He replied: THE President, DR.. Chas.

the opening of the college.

ing Of the college.
there. In addition to this / will say that
ing, feeling that it would not be the part
of wisdom to open the institution until
next October, thinking that other par
ents would feel as | did, that would not
want to risk my girl there, if she were
old enough to be in school; but after
hearing the report of the Executive Com
mittee, and after seeing for myself what
was done to the buildings and grounds,
became convinced that we would not rum
any further risks, so far as human eff
forts and precaution are concerned and
now / believe that parents need have
no fear as to sending their daughters
here. In addition to this will say that
we will have the purest and clearest wa
ter in the State, ds we will use the city
water of Greensboro after it has been
sterilized and filtered by the very best
modern methods.
1.-The Board was much pleased with
the heroic work of the president and
members of the faculty during the cpl
demic, and l may say among the Off
GERS of the institution no person won
the admiration of the members Of the
board more than DIR. Cove, the physician
of the institution. We found that she
had shown good Judgment uunder very
trying circumstances, according to the re-
port of her work from the attendant
physicians.
''She remained at her post of duty as
long as there was a single girl at the
institution, although she was telegraphed
for to come to see her own mother who
was quite sick.
"Dr. Beall and the other physicians
were faithful and did in my opinion all
that could have been done. DIR. Beall,
practically, gave up his practice in the
city and gave his attention to the insti-
tuition.
'"That which was pleasing to the board
at this last meeting was the kindly feeling
and good will shown by the mayor of the
city and many of the leading citizens,
towards the college, and the assurance
they gave to the board as well as the
management of the institution to do what
they could for the future success of the
college.
Il will also state that each part of the
sewerage system will be passed upon by
the State Board of Health. The points
and parts are not yet covered with earth
and will not be until inspected by the
State Board of Health as well as the
expert plumber in charge"
TN conclusion, will say that lam sure
1 but speak the sentiment of the board
when l say that we have felt the keen
est sorrow for those who had dear ones
sick at the college and especially have we
been grieved for those parents whose
loved ones have been taken from them
forever, and we trust that Gods grace
may sustain them in these days of sorrow
and sadness.
