The Education Situation in North Carolina is one Of
INSPIRATION During the past ten years under The lead
ersp OF magnetic and talented popular leaders In cduca
ton, the W hole State has been a"akened hundreds of i'm
proved school houses built school libraries founded
school, grounds and property improved and The great
principle Of local taxation firn ) established.
During The latter part OF this era oi educational
awakeing attention has been particularly called to The
country schools, and The effort is now being made every
where to relate them closely With country life. This
is of the Wisest and most encouraging movements
now under way in the old North State. In my Judge
leaders in the South first the up|ift through educa
ton of rural life and second the proper training of the
rising generation of negroes.
North Carolina is still preemnentIy agricultural
State. The good roads movement, the fight against the
hook worm, typhoid fever ETC. rural free delivery rural
telephones and last and perhaps greatest the reorsan'
zation Of rural schools, until they fully meet the
needs Of rural conmunities-these the movements
that hold more of promise for the future of North Caro-
lima than all the dreams and plans of political reforners
and tariff enthusiasts
The second great educational movement, hardly vet
begun North Carolina is the upltt OF the Negro
through widespread and welaught schools, thoroughly
adapted to the present conditions the industries and the
future of the Negro They should be supplied with
genuinely expert teachers the best that can be found
with school books that are written Tor the OF the
Negro appealing to race consclo!sness to sell re
spec to AMBITION and to all high motives and
prations These text books should dignity labor teach
the beauty and the value of skill and diligence and should
be filled with pictures of Negro Children Negro leaders,
and Negro homes towns and factories The text books
we place in these Negro schools at present full Of
white people, the dongs Of white people, and the achieve
mentS of white people, 1t IS wonder that the Negro
finds no ambition awakened in him Negro. but longs
to copy the whites in everythng and to force himself
into social and political positions occupied heretofore by
the whites.
Vocational schools should also be furnished but es-
pecallv teaching the Negroes the elementary facts and
processes of agriculture.
i The above it seems to me- the two roads along
which most inspiring educational progress is to be
made during the next decade and rejoice to feel that the
sanity the WISDOM and the energy which have upft
ed education in recent years. will prove sufficient for the
mighty task that lies before in the years to

deavore1 ysinly from o'clock UP
until IL p m, TO get further word
from the olympic about the Titanic
Vice President Franklin said At II
O'Clock they were s'I., hopeful OF
getting another message tonight.
The company was also trying to get
into wireless communication with the
Carpathia and filed a message asking
that IL possible the complete list Of
the names of the SIS survivors, said
10 be on board the Carpathia be sent
by wireless.
Such a list Vice-President Franklin
believes to be the utmost Importance
as hope was waning among the White
Star line officials tonight, that any
others than these CTS persons had
survived.
Boat Waa Too Late.
Amidst confusion at the Offices the
situation was studied as calmly as
possible. Mr.. Franklin figured that
Notwithstanding his fervert hope TO
the contrary. the Allan line steamers
Nirginian and Partisan could hardly
have reached the scene of the disaster
in time TO have been Of assistance.
W men the NlTBlnlan nrSt reported
catching the &C. Q. D." signal, he said
she was not likely to be able to
reach the Titanic before 10 a. m, to-
day That would have been nearly
eight hours after the Titanic sank. It
was equally doubtful that the Pari-
sian could have reached the scene in
time.
Mr.. Franklin said that from his
knowledge of Captain Smiths gal
lantry and heroism on other occasions,
the veteran navigator must have stuck
TO his bridge and gone down to his
death.
There was discussion as to whether
all OF the male passengers had sacri-
feed opportunity TO save themselves
by giving women and children the
lrst chance at the boats.
There is no rule OF the sea-" said
Mr.. Franklin. which requires such a
sacrifice. II Is a rule OF courtesy on
land as well as sea, that gallant men
have often observed in time OF dis
aster."
The White Star line officers figured
from their data that the Olympic was
forty miles from the scene Of the
Titanic's sinking. when she sent the
news OF IL at o'clock tonight. At
