TEACHERS ASSOCIATION
HELD AT GOLDSBORO GRADED
SCHOOL LAST SATURDAY,
MARCH 9TH.

The Wayne County Teachers Asso-
citation met in regular monthly session
at the Goldsboro Graded School on
March 7th, at II o'clock. The pro-
gram for the Grammar school section
was as follows:
1. A lesson in Geography. Subject
The Balkan States by Supt. A. M
Proctor.
2. Sixth and Seventh grade Ian
guage and composition, by Miss Sallie
Williams.
Mr.. Proctor and Miss Williams were
both absent SO the meeting was
thrown open for general discussion
of language and composition and also
of all the work done by the seventh
grades.
The names of the candidates for
graduation were handed to the Super
intendent by the teachers.
Next the Reading Circle was dis
cussed.
An intermission of fifteen minutes
was given after which a general meet
ing of the three divisions was held.
Supt. Atkinson thanked the county
teachers for their earnest work in the
school and the interest they had shown
in the meetings of the Association.
He also thanked the Graded school
teachers for their attendance and
help.
Next the Superintendent stated that
enough money had been apportioned
to Wayne county from the State
Equalizing Fund to extend our regular
four months county term twenty-one
and three tenths days. The teachers
readily agreed to give the seven tenths
thus making the school term five
months and two days.
Betterment work was then discus
sed. One association has been organ
lied since the last Teachers meeting.
Final report blanks for the Better
ment work were given out.
County Commencement programs
were distributed
Mr.. Edgerton was asked to talk to
the teachers about the programs. He
made an enthusiastic talk saying in
conclusion that he was sure the Com
mencement this year would be a great
success as all the County Commence
ments we had ever had were a sue
cess with the exception of the dinner,
and he was sure that the dinner
would be success this year.
1t was stated that cardboard for the
exhibits, 24x36 inches, could not be
obtained. On motion of Mr.. Edgerton
the standard sized cardboard wasl
adopted.

LIBRARY TALK

Many times these questions are ask
ed by patrons of the public library
why do we not get more new books,
''Why do we not buy collection OF
books on music, tWhy owe not have
more reference books. To all such
questions there is but one answer
there is not enough money. When
Goldsboro people decide to have a well
equipped public library they will have
it. Henry Ward Beecher said: "a
little library growing larger every
year is an honorable part of a mans
history. It is a mans duty to have
books. A library is not luxury, but
one Of the necessities of life"

SUNDAY CHIT-CHAT
BY Ruth Cameron.

OME weeks ago l urged my let
ter friends to exchange ideas
on ways to amuse children on
MI rainy days. Below are some of
the excellent suggestions sent
me. Read them, mothers and others
interested in children, and then send
me your ideas on this subject, and
Wen have another symposium later.
1t is surely a fertile subject.
II have five children altogether, but
only three little ones that are at home
all day." writes one unusually wide
awake and intelligent mother. II al

their games instructive as we'll as

with him.
AT other times 1t Is the clothes pin
bag which keeps them quiet. In this
case sister is making dolls and brother,
forts and log cabins with big nails for
guns and single pins for guards, or
both are busy making fences or horses
My little box of nails is also a great
favorite for then I make all the letters
for them and they try to copy as many
as they can. Brother is four and
sister is two years old, while baby,

mother. He would turn his pack of

The Fairies Home

WEARS and years ago, dainty lit
tie brook flowed under some big
forest trees, not far from where
a town now stands.
The brook was very little, but there
were many white and gay colored stones
ein it. And as the water was crystal
bow as it tumbled over the pebbles,
down, down towards the big river.
OF all the brooks in the forest, this
was the favorite with the fairies.
Why the favorite?
Think a minute and you can gtsess
1t was the favorite because It was
always smiling and happy Because as
it tumbled along, it laughed and sang
and chartered cheerfully the whole day
long
The fairies liked that. And they
came and used the brook for a mir
ror when they dressed up for gay
parties. They dipped then hands into
the brook and scooped up water-drops
when they were thirsty. All day long
they played by the brook, for, you see,
they lived so close by.
Where did they live?
In the flowers ~ the side of the
brook
Haven't you often noticed how how-
ers grow close up to the side of the
little forest brooks How they bend
and nod towards the running water
and seem to love it sos
Those flowers are the fairy homes.
In each flower, every night, there
sleeps fairy. sheltered and cory under
the folded petals.
In the morning, at the first streak
OF dawn, the petals unfold, oh so
slowly, one petal at time. The gentle
movement of the flower, wakens the
sleeping fairy and--hush--he is awake
lis sitting up and then in a minute
jumps down and runs to the brook for
a bath.
If ever you happen to wander by a
forest brook at sunrise of summer
day, you too may see the fairies, Jump
ing down from their flower beds and
running TO the brook to battle. A sight
worth going long, long way to see !
