"The outlook for a full attendance is
very gratifying" says President Hob
good, who has been in receipt of many
applications for information from par
ents and guardians. Its success has
been due to thorough work, to the ideal
hOme-life in the school, and the wise
direction of President Hobgood. AS q
student and scholar, he ranks easily
with the first men of the profession in
North Carolina. and with scholarship he
combines the practical judgment of the
man of affairs. The best test of the
staying qualities of Oxford Seminary is
that nearly all the mothers who were
here in the first year of Presi
dent Hobgood's administration are now
sending their daughters to enjoy the
advantages which they remember with
gratitude.

(Staff Correspondence

Oxford. N. c.. Aug 24-Behind every
great enterprise and every great institu-
ton there is a man. Whatever success
is achieved is due to the directing mind
of a man Machines have been invented
to do many things, to make one hand do
the work of ten and to tighten labor, but
no machine has yet been invented that
can think and plan.
The success of Oxford Female Seminary
has been helped by it's environment, but
it is the wisdom of President F. P. Hob
good that has made it one of the first in
stitutions for the higher education Of
women in the State. Prof. Hobgood,
though young still in appearance. in feel
ing, in progress and in enthusiasm, is a
pioneer in the higher education of wo-
men. He has been teacher upwards of
thirty years. He entered the profession
in 1868. Two years he spent at Reidsville
in, charge of the Academy; ten years as
President of Raleigh Female Seminary;
and twenty-one years as president OF OK
ford Female Seminary for Gris-thirty-
one years in all in the conduct OF schools
for girls. This long experience has given
him the varied knowledge that is the
foundation of his success. prominent
educator recently said That IN MS ScnOOi
in Raleigh Prof. Hobgood began doing
what schools before the war had not
done, that is. the thorough teaching of
girls. l once heard Prof. Hobgood say
that whatever success had been achieved
gby him was due in large measure to
his wife who has, as he put it, "been
my counsellor and better angel ever since
/ began teaching" In boarding school
for girls, the parents properly put great
store by the advantages of the school
home which are always shaped by the
wife of the president and the lady teach
ers. The influence Of Mrs. Hobgood is
felt in hundreds Of North Carolina homes,
as we'll as the educational training which
the girls received at Oxford Seminary.
Leading men have given testimony of the
work done here.

No "Antl-Amerlcan league

From the New York Tribune.
Vienna, the great experiment station
Of European politics, discovers by the
way Of Paris that there are some in
superable obstacles 10 the formation Of
a European customs league against
the United States. The identity CT the
obstacles is not disclosed. Imagination
will not. however. be overwrought in
Specializing upon them. There are some
things which are pretty easily guessed.
A sufficient bar against any such
league might be found in the fact that
scarcely any two European countries
are agreed between themselves upon
the tariff. Commercial wars are en-
demic throughout the continent II is
not to be supposed, for example, that
Germany and Russia or France and
Italy would wholly sink their mutual
rivalries and Industrial animosities
Yet without that no effective anti
American league would be possible
Moreover was it the expectation that
free trade Great Britain would be-
come protectionist, or that the prCtec-
ZIONIST continent would go over to
free trade? For surely there must be
some such uniformity to make concert
ed action effective.
But before and above such considera-
tions rises the one great fact that the
two greatest commercial and industrial
countries of Europe were not and are
not by any means to be led into such
a movement 1t needsonly a little care
full thought to convince one that it is
simply ineonceivable that either Great
Britain or Germany should enter upon
anything resembling a tariff war with
the United States. And Hamlet

There is a big express wagon in
Wilmington that is marked by its
size. 1t resembles Summer car en-
wagon wheels. and is drawn by pair
of poor horses, one Of which is a dis
grace to the city of Wilmington. The
animal is so thin that it actually stag
gers along the street in heavy wind.

morning, and attached to the big
wagon, it looked like a cartoon.

said the horse should be called "Bony-
