Several OF the keepers of houses of Ill
fame III this city have recently put them
selves on record as having a fine contempt
for our city and State law enforcing ma
chinery.
Three Of these people have not hesitat-
ed to register themselves as retail dealers
IN liquor on the record books of the Unit
ed State Revenue Department in this city,
although they hold no city and county IL
cense permitting them to engage in this
business, as may be seen by an examina-
ton of the books of the city of Raleigh
and the county of Wake.
One of the three is Ruth Tannehin. of
No. 523 f. Davie street, who it will be re-
membered figured in both the county and
Federal courts last fall and winter for sell
ing liquor on Sunday and retailing with
out license.
She was first arrested on October 18th,
1902, and bound over by Mayor Powell to
the January term of Wake Superior Court.
The grand jury returned two true bills
against her, one for selling liquor on a.
day, the other for retailing without 4
eense. She plead guilty to both eharg,
and Judgment was suspended on payment
OF costs. which amounted to $3.50
On October 10Th, 1902, she was taken be-
fore United States Commissioner John
Nichols on charge of retailing without
license. The hearing was continued until
the goth. when Mr.. Nichols bound her over
to the December term of Federal court in
a bond of 5000.
An interesting feature of the case before
Mr. Nichols was that he tried also three
young men who were charged with at

PROFESSOR BURKETT.


The next speech was by Prof C. w.
Burkett, whose subject was, Agriculture
in the Rural Schools" Dr. Burkett said
the first lesson he ever received, in school,
he remembered because his teacher
brought an old clod of earth in the school
room, and explained all about it, | re-
member nothing else l believe this can
be taught TO infinite advantage, for it Is
conducive to greater good than anything
else in our schools. Never is it taught in
the schools that on the farm is a good
place to live. From now on just as sure
Jas the sun rises and sets $4,000 young
men viii yearly go back to the farm
But have we given them anything to en-
courage them to make this decision? Is
it not time that we teach them something
about their business? The. agricultural Is
the highest standard. / believe in other
education, but supremacy in this. We
have got the facts and the only way we
can give them is to have them taught in
the rural schools, and our greatest duty
is to develop our youth along these lines.
In this respect the rural school is Of
great Importance as the college. New
York, Indiana, Iowa. Minnesota, have
taken it up and are teaching it in their
schools. Agriculture is teachable. Agri-
cultural papers, and books are supplement
airy studies from which the teachers can
get the facts they may wish to discern 10
the school-room. Where can our boys On
the farms get these facts and principles
unless they are taught them in the rural
schools? This fact is self evident Edu-
Gators and farmers should go hand n
hand with this great work that will bring
knowledge, education hope and inspira.
into our country homes.
SUPERINTENDENT JOINER.
The last speaker ON the programme was
Superintendent ]. Y. Joyner He said.
| The thought is with me now more than
ever before, that if any class should be
the friend of education, it is the farmers
Everywhere these facts are shown, and
should move US to believe in the supreme
and stupendous duty Of educating the
child. Eighty-two per cent of North Car
olina's population live in the country and
are educated by the rural schools Eight
out of every ten are absolutely dependent
upon the rural schools. They will remain
on the farm SO long as there remains that
! those advantages Almighty God has given
them, and not a moment longer. There
/ is more responsibility upon the rural
schools than upon any thing else. IL Is
