EDITOR ARGUs:-Atthe Woman's
Club, soon after its organization, a
motion was made and carried for the
Club to work for the establishment
of free kindergarten for Goldsboro,
this kindergarten to be called s"The
Mary Carrow Kindergarten" At
the same time some members of the
Club preferred to have fountain at
the Graded School as memorial of
Miss Mary, but the kindergarten was
decided upon. Now it seems the
Club cannot see its way clear to
establish the kindergarten, and yet
some of us are hopeful of free kin
dergarten for Goldsboro in the near
future; for when we look over North
Carolina, as backward as it is along
educational lines, we see the kinder
garten and training class DR.. Var
dell has established at Red Springs.

Washington, D. c., says, "blessed
IS the child who has this foundation
for his life's work in this CONNER
cial age Of the world with its ner-
vous, tretful, grasping hold upon
men and women.o
Now, if the Club cannot establish
this work the friends Of Miss Carrow
are 10th to see the memorial to her
abandoned, and feel something else
should be done about it. She was the
founder of our Benevolent Society
and her life was filled with deeds of
kindness to the people OF Goldsboro,
and we trust some Of her friends will
see some way to begin this work of
appreciation Of Miss Mary Carrow's
ife among US.
