EDUCATIONAL RALLY.
Annual Gathering of Indians
at Penbroke-State Supt.
Joyner Speaker of the Oc-
casion

at Penbroke-State Supt.
Joyner Speaker of the Oc-
casion.
The Indians of the county as
sembled Saturday at Pembroke
to hold their annual educational
rally, and they We're there to the
number Of several hundred. lne
large auditorium of the school
building was filled to it's utmost
and possibly as many more were
on the outside, unable to- gain
admiutance.
State Superintendent of Public
Instruction J. Y. Joyner was the
speaker Of the occasion, and he
made a speech the like of which
the Indians possibly never heard
before. He spoke for about two
hours, beginning little before
IL o'clock. Prof. H. l.. Edens,
principal OF the Indian Normal,
IN a few appropriate remarks in
troduced the speaker. DR.. Joyner
Congratulated the Indians upon
the evidences of their educational
advancement. He also con-
graduated them on the fact that
so many Of them own their homes
and are making a good living.
He said the object of his visit
was to tell them about education
and what it means, and no one
who heard him qustions but that
he told them in language plain
enough for all to understand. He
SAID the success attained in any
phase of life depends upon educa-
ton. de gave many illustrations
showing where All education pays
from Fl nancial standpoint,
which he said was placing it on
its lowest plane. He told how
the pleasures and joys of a people
depend on education and said that
it was the royal road to the full
development of womanhood ano
manhood.
DR.. Joyner's speech from start
to finish was a treat and it is tC
be regretted that lack of space
will not permit a fuller accoun
OF the many good things he hac
to say.
Mr.. w. S. Cobb, Democratic
candidate for the State Senate
was there and made a few re
marks, assuring the Indians tina
he would do all in his power tt
increase the appropriation fo
their school and help them in an!
other way possible. Prof. Eden
then announced that dinner wa
next in order. There was moth
ing after dinner except a meet
ing Of the trustees Of the Norma
with DR.. Joyner to discuss tn
needs Of the school.
