WOMAN'S GREAT WORK FOR
THE SCHOOLS.

The educational campaign is going to
result in the adoption of the local tax
in many school districts and in the bet
tcrment of public schools in all portions
Of the State. The people are awake and
are in touch in most counties with the
agencies that are working for local tax
in many districts. The effective work
being done by Governor Aycock. Super
intendent Joyner, DR.. McIver and others
is already bearing fruit.
The organization by many of the first
women Of the State of an association
to improve the public school houses is
in line With the educational campaign
that is being wagcd. 1t is peculiarly the
work of the women and they have entered
upon it with zeal and we'll directed en-
thusiasm. Every progressive woman in
the State ought to belong to the asso-
citation. 4 late issue of the Youths
Companion says of the work:
Associations of women in towns and
cities for the Improvement of the schools
are COMMON, and they have done much
to make school life more attractive. 1t
has remained for the women OF
CAROLINA to organize a State associa-
WIN " III DtJl'il It1uI VI lIlC SCIool-
houses, and TO plan a campaign in which
tho Importance of attractive school build
ings is to be set forth to the parents
in every county in the State and in
every school district in every county.
"A committee of women has been ap-
pointed to distribute literature bearing
on the subject, and to exhibit pictures
showing that unattractive school grounds
may be made pleasant and picturesque
by planting trees, flowers and shrub
berry. and how the barren walls of the
school-room may be adorned with in
expensive pictures.
southern women are noted for their
ability to bring things to pass,-as, in
deed, all women are.-sO North Caro-
lima ought to be noted in q few years
for the charm of the rural school grounds
and schoolhouses
1T is in the South that one would ex-
pect the movement for moro attractive
schoolhouscS to be popular, for the per
centage of native-bOrn Americans there
is larger than in any other section of
the country. But interest in the subject
is not confined to the South; in the North
and West and East also there are thou
sands of pleasant schools, the pride OF
the neighborhood which supports them.
The interest which the mothers have
taken in the matter is largely respon-
sible for the adornment of the barren
structures that we're thought goOC
enough q generation or two ago, or fol
their displacement by commodious build
ings tastefully decorated and fitted with
modern sanitary appliances"

EDUCATIONAL CAMPAIGN.

We publish in another column q list
of appointments for educational speeches
by many of the foremost men OF our
State. Nothing more significant has APP
peared in this paper for many a day. 1t
means a great popular movement for
popular education; the improvement OF
machinery for the improvement of the
people; the laying of indestructible foun-
dations for popular government. We
are, indeed, entering upon a great era OF
human power and human development,
and North Carolina is preparing to do
her work and enjoy ner share by training
the minds of her children and equipplng
them for the future. All hail. the day
of the educators. All hail! for it means
a greater and a grander North Carolina.

A D OFFICER.

I The unanimous denomination Of Hon.
Rodolph Duffy. of Onslow, for Solicitor,
is a fitting honor to one of the State S
best men. AS a leader of the minority
in the House in 1895 and 1897, as mem
Der of the State Platform IN
the last three State conventions, as
Solicitor, as campaigner, Mr.. Duffy has
shown ability of a high order and done
the party great service. He is a Demo
crat of Democrats and his devotion to the
principles Of the party, in which he Is
thoroughly indoctrinated, is as pro-
nounced as his courage is unquestioned
If all public offices were filled by men SO
capable, so honest, so manly North Car
Dina would be an ideally governed State.
