Letter from Prof. HighfiII.

NtN'hN oNLfAOlO 1ld Jdol closed one of the most successful terms in their history. This is due not so much to the efforts of one person or set of persons, as to the united efforts of the whole community. In the first place, the faculty has been a unit striv- Ing for the creation of a school spirit and of strict standards of discipline and scholarship. In these efforts, it has been ably seconded by the board. between whom and the faculty there has been none of those unpleasant blckerings which must always result in disintegration of effort on the part of these two units and ot the patrons. All have labored together for the benefit Of the school. There is little wonder, then, that the term just closed has been one of the most successful in the history of the school.
 These general considerations have substantial figures to back them. The enrolment in the schools has increased from about 5lo last year to 541 this year. Our average of attendance last year was 66 per cent. This year 1t has been 90.5 per cent. Cases of necessary discipline averaged last year about 15 per month. This year the average has been reduced to 5 per month. At the same time, the standards of be- havior have undergone a remark aEY@ change. Those who mis Behave for fun have found that there are more ways of discip lining than with a stick, which is after all, the crudest way, and the one productive of the least actual benefits to the one dis. ciplined.
 Perhaps the high school should have an additional word spoken in it's favor. The attendance here has not fallen below 90 per cent and aooyee during the year. Our maximum enrolment at the close of work was around 50. Only about one sixth of that number were conditioned or failed in their work, and there has been no cases of necessary, serious discipline in the high school this year. Some of the conditions can be removed by work this summer and examinations in the fall. Some are fiat failures re- sultlng from failure to study and from continued absence from school. For these I have no ap- polgies to offer, believing as do, that school boys as we'll as men should stand on their own merit
 In closing, my thanks are due to the patrons of the school. the board and the faculty for the serious efforts which all have put forth in collaborating with me Ishould be ungrateful if I did not extend especial thanks to my friend and fellow worker. Prof Frensemier, who leaves against the solicitations of his many friends. His practical, ingeni. ous and ready mind has aided me at every turn. l feel that I voice the sentiment of the entire com munity when I bid him and his good wife, who has labored so lovingly and so well with the lit- tie people, a hearty God speed.
 wish that space were given for dealing with the other teachers individually and recounting their noble deeds. But they will still be among the people of Carlisle with their wholesome examples. to teach of them. though unmen- toned here. I express again my cordial thanks for the splendid things they have done. To Mrs. Harrington for her splendid work with the 9th and 9th grad.

The note of the seven American pow

the act of sending the note in proper
perspective. 1t is strongly to be hop
ed that It Is not to be the beginning Of
endless diplomatic correspondence and
'arotul fencing. 1t should be the first
step IN Il decisive course of action.
Apparently that is the purpose of the
SignerS.
Mexico needs one thing and needs
that at once--a strong provisional
government able 10 restore order. If
such Il government can be secured by
conference of the fractional leaders in
Mexico, well and good. If not, it
must be brought about in some other
way.
III Pan-American Seven have TAX
~ the logical and sensible first step.
They have given the fighting factions
4 chance to get together for the good
Of Mexico. They have intimated that
the. agreement must be promptly and
speedily brought about.
Such voluntary agreement among
men who have shown themselves I'M
mitigated self-seekers does not seem
probable. What then?
We cannot turn back. The confer
ence of the Seven must go ahead and
see OF it that that provisional govern
ment is established and is supported
in whatever way is necessary to it's
success.

Improving Russell County Roads.
(Roanoke Times.l


The Importance of good roads to
our people in Southwest Virginia has
been stressed so often and empha-
sized SO repeatedly by the Roanoke
Times that it is unnecessary TO say
that any and all evidences Of progress
along this line are hailed with de
light and qualification by this news
paper. A dispatch from Lebanon,
Russell county, regarding road work
in that county, appearing in our col
umns on Tuesday, was particular graf
flying. That the people of the COM
munity turned out with their wag-
ons and teams and helped move the
convict camp from Carterton and
terest taken in the ubiect Of better
roads by Russell County people.
1t is one of the convictions of this
newspaper that any people desiring
better conditions, whether it be bet
ter roads or schools or political con-
ditions or anything else, can have
them. The only requisite condition is
that they shall want them bad enough
to be willing to make whatever sacri-
flee be necessary to get them The
actions of the citizens of the Belfast
Mills neighborhood in getting out and
transporting the camp equipment from
the railroad at Blackford over to
Belfast Mills, distance of six miles
shows that they are not only anxious
for better roads, but they are will
ing to do their part toward getting
them.
When the six miles of macadam is
completed it will open macadam
highway from Russell county all the
way to Bluefield with the exception of
few milesc of dirt road in Tazewell
county. The progressive people of
TaZewell county can be relied on, we
are confident, to macadamize this mis-
sing link at the earliest feasible mo-
ment, thus completing the highway.
Russell county, as the home of Vir-
ginia's governor, is very much in the
limelight these days and commands a
peculiar prominence among her sister
counties as the home of Henry C.
Stuart. Therefore, it is only fitting
that she should be activein road i'm
provement and in other progressive
public spirited movements.
Good roads are not only the best
possible kind of advertisement for q
county; they are a source of constant
satisfaction, enjoyment and profit to
the people who live nearby and use
them daily. The people of Roanoke
county, thanks to an unusually in
telligent, liberal and far-sighted
board of supervisors, are in a position
to attes the truth of this statement.

No Liar at Work.
Editor the News:

Editor the News:
People that live in glass houses must
not throw stones. What went with
that big pile of high price stone that
was crushed with the district and sup
plement funds and left in Baptist Val
ley to repair the roads, by the consent
of the road authorities it helped to
build spring houses for the parties
that never supplemented cent to the
road. You can find in the clerks office
q record of all the money spent and
where it came from and how much
and where it was spent and who by,
and wont find whore Il single vote has
been influenced with the county or dis
trict funds nor names painted with
big flowery letters on thousands of
dollars worth of road machinery, scat
tered over the district exposed TO the
weather, eaten up by rust.
Nor no iron bridges across branch
es and small stI cams to influence
votes, and let the rivers flow and
when too deep, swim or go around
or back and let business go drifting
on. Bad theory to vote for a man
that has got no road, best theory to
vote for n man that has got good
road, for the old saying is self first
and y friend next. A man no good
fer self is no good for any one else, if
you havnt got no road vote for Il
man that has one and you stand first
chance for your road and if you vote
for a man that hasn't got no road the
money might run out before it gets to
your road. They say all supervisors
heretofore builds them road by their
own house first thing, l guess our
present supervisors meant to build
him n road but was to free with the
road funds, he thought they would
never give out. 1t was little more
than he was used to handling, too
many demonstrators and green road
bosses to educate with the roads
fund for it to last long, and let the
supplements that was offered on the
different roads pass by.

To the Editor of The World:
For thirteen months America has
played an ignoble part among the
nations. We have tamely submitted
to seeing the weak, whom we had
ccovenanted to protect, wronged. We
have seen our men, women and child
rem murdered on the high seas with
out action on our part.-Theodor
Roosevelt to the citizen soldiers.
Thus spake the senior ex-President
of the United States yesterday at the
military training camp of civilians at
Plattsburg, N. Y.
Entirely apart from the gross i'm
propriety and the glaring and utter
untruthfulness of the foregoing dec
laration, it astounding that even
Theodore Roosevelt, or anybody else
so lost to shame, could be capable
just at this most critical juncture-
of descending to such abysmal depths
OF moral turpitude. A. B. II.

the news published on the same page
with the account of his inexcusable
attack on the administration, perhaps
even he would not have dared to say
that we stand disgraced among the

the type of man capable of apprecat-

international policies have won, he
might have been goaded to even great

Doubtless Mr.. Bryan, seeing that the
country has been safely steered
through the international shoals by
Mr.. Wilson's methods of peaceful and
honorable settlement, realizes why the
