collection the deadly white oak snake. The

SAVING THE c, F. c,
No One Doubts Now That In
stitution Will be Saved.
Feeling Has Greatly Changed in Regard 10 lts
Future --PIan Which the Alumnae
VIII Follow.
Greensboro Telegram

The past week has wrought great
change in the feeling Of Greensboro people
with regard to Greensboro Female Col
lege. A week ago there were raany who
though that the college would not be saved
to Greensboro. Now it is considered as an
assured fact that the college viii open as
usual the coming fall. What is h.ore, it
is believed that the old faculty with pos
sibly one or two exceptions will be re-
tanned the coming year.
OF course the great meeting OF Thurs
day night was what turned the tide OF
sentiment though even before that The
work of the canvassers had given an
earnest of what might be eX-
pected of the meeting. OF that meeting
the people have not ceased talking vet
nor will they ceease for a long time. The
Governors ringing words, the short, Wig
orous, pointed speeches of the ether speak
ers, and the hearty and generous responses
will always be remembered with pleasure
by all those who were present
what will be tie next step?" This
question was asked last night of lna OF the
parties who have worked so sSrenuousy
in the effort to put the old college on its
feet again. The reply was that the can
vass hadn't been finished in Greensboro
yet, that new subscriptions were being
received every day, and that there we're
some public spirited citizens vino had not
yet been approached. Several additional
thousands, it was stated. wn;id in all pro
liability yet be raised i'll Greensboro
But while some of the earnest workers
are busying themselves with improving
every opportunity in Greensboro, there
are others who are seeing to it that the
rest of the State is not being neglected.
The articles in the local papers telling OF
what has been accomplished in Gree -
boro are being mailed to prominent MC;hn.
dists the State over These wealthy rlen
will be asked to emulate the example Of
the Greensboro contributors by coming up
with contributions of one. two, and ,hIee
hundred dollars-larger or smaller rs he
case may be. It is argued that the coli
lege is known and loved all over the
State and that everywhere there will
spring up friends to aid it in its need
Another step which is in contemplation
is the immediate incorporation of the
Alumnae Associations This will put that
body in better shape for the business
like duties which the exigencies of the
college have thrust upon it and viii OPP
crate in other advantageous ways for the
good of the cause

Durham, n c., July 13.-The board of
equalization was in session today equal
izing the values of the property assessed
for taxation. Tomorrow the commission
ers will hear complaints as to the yalua-
ton placed
The work Of the board today shows that
there has been great increase in thu
property values Of the county. Durham
township, which pays more taxes than all
other townships combined, has not been
passed upon by the board as yet The
increase by townships show from fifteen
TO thirty-five per cent higher than one
year ago. Last year the property value
Of the entire county was $11 500, 600 and it
- estimated that the values this year will
show an increase of at least three and
one.ha1f million dollars, making total OF
about fifteen million dollars in this coun-
ty.
This is the greatest increase of any year
since the formation OF the county One
great source of increase has been with
the American Tobacco Company This
company has erected large number of
large storage houses here and the amount
of tobacco on hand was no small item.
1t is thought that when the valuations
from the counties of the State are all in
that Durham will be well in the front
rank as to the amount of property on
the tax-books.
This afternoon about 2 o'clock there
was fire in the northern part of the
town. Two small cottages were burned
before the hremen could stop the blaze.
The fire was about one thousand feet
from the nearest hydrant and at one time
Il looked like an entire row of small cot
tages would be burned.
late yesterday afternoon there was a
runaway marriage in East Durham and
today the irate father of the bride is
speaking of having his niece arrested on
the charge of perjury for swearing that
her cousin was over eighteen years of age.
The contracting parties we're Lewis Bar
bee and Miss Mary High The license
were secured by q Miss High, cousin of
the bride, and she made oath that the
bride-to-be was. over eighteen years Of
age. Today Mr.. Alex High, father of the
bride, went to see lawyers with view Of
having a warrant issued
This morning one of street cars was
badly damaged by coming in contact with
the shifting engine on the Norfolk and
Western road. The rear OF the car was
crushed in but fortunately no one was
hurt. The rules of the company require
that the conductor shall flag a car across
the railway tracks but this morning it
seems that this was not done. Anyway
it did not get clear of the track before
the engine came along and struck the
Ger.

An ideal Mother,

Inc other day on railroad train |
saw an ideal mother. Until | beheld
her and realized the fitness for that
divine vocation that expressed itself
in every look, word and action I had
not realized how few women possess
the precious gift. 1t appeared to be
instructive and spontaneous. the out
growth OF her own sweet thoughtful
ness and t .rness, rather than wis
dom acquired by long attendance On
mothers meetings or deep study of
psychology. She was young woman.
not exactly pretty but genuinely sweet
and it is needless to say her child
was with her, a little girl at the most
winning-~usually the most spoiled
age, who, it was apparent, had mind
Of her oWn. The way that mother
led and directed the child's will
without crossing it, and the sweet
reasonaDlene SIS with which she en-
forced obedience, completely charmed
the people who watched her. 1t ap-
reafed TO - accomplished by the ex-
elcise of a divine tact that kept her
closely in sympathy but ever leading
the child and inspiring in the infant
mind respect as we'll as love. There
is SO much Of the "unconquered will
about the average child and of the
helpless incompetent about the aver
age parent, that the sight of this
young mother with her Madonna look
of keeping many things hid in her
heart, was very refreshing It was
also q pleasure to observe that she
was the wife of a farmer, a bronzed
young fellow who shared with her the
attentions of their young daughter.
Did he appreciate the treasure he pos
sessed? l doubt it, but his affection
was evident and perhaps twas as we'll.
More adoring devotion might have
destroyed the sweet unconsciousness
that enfolded and set her apart from
the average modern woman.
