W. 8. Long, D, D., for superintendent


To the Editor: A feeling of sadness
comes over us as we realize the great
loss to our State caused by the unex-
Iected death of General Tcou. Never
before possibly in the history of the
State has the office Of Superintendent
OF Public Instruction carried so much re-
sponsibil:ty with 1t and meant so much
toward the welfare of the commonwealth
Owing to the great educational awakening
which is so clearly seen and felt among
our people today, the man who fills that
office is looked upon with unusual inter
est. That General Toon was the right
man in the right place no one doubts.
The people of Alamance believe that
they can furnish the man in the person
of Rev. W. S. Long, u. d., eX-President
OF Zion College. For a number OF years
DR.. Long has been one OF the leading
educators Of the State. 1t was through
his untiring efforts and perseverance that
Elon College was built and today stands
where II does. II has been through his
abors and wise management that the
public schools of Alamance have been so
greatly improved during the past year.
His work as superintendent OF public in
struction for this county is sufficient evil
