THE EDUCATIONAL CONFERENCE

The Educational Conference in session
in Raleigh this week has brought to the
city nearly all the county superintendent
the men upon whom the system of pub
lie education chiefly depends for its
growth and success. With them have
come also a number of college officials
and presidents, city superintendent,
members of the county boards of educa-
ton, and others interested in the present
educational revival.
The discussions, the gist of which has
been printed daily in these columns, show
that these educators are dealing with
live and vital questions, that affect the
highest interests of the children of the
State. There is no better evidence Of the
progress the State is making in educa>
ton than in the discussions in the con-
ference. We are going forward.

NEWSPAPERS IN THE SCHOOLS.


The suggestion made in the Educational
Conference yesterday that newspapers
ought to be used in addition to the
reading books in the schools, is one
which some schools in the State have
already adopted with gratifying results.
Reading books for small children are nee
essary, but for larger children there is
10 doubt that the use of newspapers
would be much better than the best read
ing books. The children would be in
touch with current events as we'll as
learning to read with ease. 1t is too
cften the case that school children, who
ought to be posted with what is going on
about them, do not read any newspaper.

The following item from the Tarboro
Southerner, about one of the ablest men
in North Carolina will be read with
interest by many readers of this paper:
Judge Howard has resigned as direc-
tor of the Atlantic Coast Line after a
service of more than thirty years. In
point of service he was the senior direc-
tor on the board. He resigned because
his age made regular attendance on the
meetings rather trying on him. The rail
road authorities accepted his resignation
with expressed regret and only because
he insisted upon it, When he entered
the directorate 1872 miles was the extent
of the road. When he left it was one
of the greatest systems in the country.
He saw the stock of the company APP
preciate from a few cents on the dollar
till the same stock was worth more than
three times its face value. That he
served so long; that year after year he
was chosen by the great railroad men
who control the system, only bespeaks
the we'll placed confidence which they
had in him."
