Music hath charms to soothe the

Music, to me, is the most marvel
Gus of all the powers with which
man is endowed. 1t is the only Gift
which seems solely to contribute to
mans delight. 1t is the souls SUI
preme charmer. Like all faculties
purely spiritual it seems born with

1t is supernal. 1t is not a gift of

from some higher sphere; some
happier cline. It is the truant of
some blissful haven where hover
the shades of just men. 1t is the
stray note of the ancient song of
love as sung by youths and maid

shore. 1t is the echo of the voices
OF country where a sorrow is

the prevention of disease is worth
more than money spent on sickness

that whole time health officers are

HEALTH and HAPPINESS

North Carolina has three
whole time firm demonstrators.
She has also ten whole time health
officers. Do these facts and figures
indicate that the States progress
and prosperity along the lines of
health and agricultural develop
ments are in the same proportion?
we bello,o ,ley do. We believe
the State has progress over six
times as far in scientific farming as
it has in public health matters anG
interest. Already North Carolina
knows the value of her farm dem
onstrators and she is using them.
She has realized that they pay. She
has found that in the end they are
a paying investment. Consequent
|y several counties are employing
as many as four denonstrative
agents, two in the farm demOnStra-
tive work proper, and two in that
line Of farm work that CO Germs
women canning, scientific house
keeping, dairyin9. etc.
A few counties, we believe have
progress equally along other lines
in health and educational matters
as we'll as in farm work and other
material interests. But this num-
Der is only a few as is evidenced
by the fact that there are only ten
whole time health officers in the
ST. IS d. -:v+v,-A' ~ h~'>
time farm demonstrators. In other
words health work and interest in
North Carolina are generation be-
hind the times. 1t is no wonder
that some of her citizens who are
just having their eyes opened are
Inundated at her high death rate
and the position she holds in health
work, as compared with more pro-
gresslve states where health matters
have not been deferred as the last
item and of least importance.
Visitors from this State to the
Panama-Pacific Exposition have
declared themselves mortified at
North Cardinals disgraceful high
death rate. They say that this fact
is practically all that the North
State has to represent her there,
and they wonder Why this is so.
They are puzzled to know the ex-
PLANTATION of her uneviable position.
Be this said in her favor, however,
that her death rate is probably not
highest in the union but the highest
OF the registration area. This area

Jackson county is proud of it's
schools and the record that has
been made. The following, copied
from the educational edition of the
Raleigh News and Observer, speaks
we'll for the progress that has been
made: The past year the enroll
ment in the public schools of Jack
son county was eighty-seyen per
cent of all the children between the
ages of six and twenty-one years; a
large per cent of which number has
already completed the public school
course, some have married and
others have left the county. I con-
slider that less than five per cent of
the children of the county who
should have been in school were
out, and we hope to have them in
this year. And in spite Of the bad
weather, bad roads, humps, measles
Whooping-cOugh, chicken pox, small
pox, diphtheria, and scarlet fever
our average daily attendance was
nearly seventy per cent of the en-
rollmant. Ninety seven and four
tenths per cent of the children of
the county who are between the
ages of eight and twelve years old
were enrolled and the average at
tendance of that enrolment was
nearly ninety per cent. There is
only about six-tenths of one per
cent of the children of the county
between the ages of eight and twelve
years who cannot read and write.
Our average length of term of al
the schools of the county white
and colored-Was 1902 days while
the average lenght of term Of all
the districts which have local tax
was 1924 days. Seventy-four and
sfx-tenths per cent of our teachers
have had normal training, the ma
jority of them are from the splendid
State Normal and Industrial School
at Cullowhee. Nearly 20 per cent
of our teachers will this year re-
ceive the diploma give by the State
Department of Education for hav'
ing completed the entire Teachers
Reading Circle Course for four years.
About As per cent of our teachers
A+ve had 1o..f or more years CO
perience in teaching. Forty five
per cent of the teachers taught this
year in the same school as last year.
During the past year six new
school houses have been built at an
approximate cost of $5,4O0. Ten
houses within the past year have
been equipped with patent desks.
We had one moonlight school" last
year and hope to have a number of
them this year.

culate speech And in that case it
is not the sound but the thought.
Must c is infinitely susceptible of
being made the proper expression
of mans sensibilities and passions
In its loftier and nobler utterances
it is sublimity itself. Such music
is the profoundest purveyor Of NOR
al feeling.
Music is eloquence in tone. It is
religion in sound. 1t is poetry and
ethics in concord.
Music was never meant. but like
all things good may be made, the
vehicle of the faculties of the baser-
sort. This is the error of man.
Music Of the highest spiritual
type, of the divine kind, is the
mlghtiest agent of soul-culture in
the univ erse that we know. 1t
bring us within ear-shot of the
manifold harmonies of Deity.
1t puts us in love and sympathy
with ali His handiwork. 1t places
us in rapt admiration and awe with
the fathomless blue above us, and
leaves us in grateful and exultant
pride that we have an existence,
and thas We can claim so beautiful
world fer so short while and so
needless a life.
Music has been the faithful friend
and ally of Christs program of life
When the churchs' spiritual exche
quer was the nearest bankruptcy
the sacred songs have redeemed it.
The songs of Zion-the music Of
religious poets and prophets-from
David and Isaiah o Va and Yves
ley have been the poor mans spirit
ual almoner all down the ages, until
no real worship may be had with
out them
Sacred song is as vital to the re-
ligious life of the individual as is
the air to his physical existance.
Sad and disastrous the day when
the great congregation ceased to
sing.
Then there is the music known as
classic the music Of the masters
for example, the German, (splendid
and pathetic race) the highest sec
llar nd ra,;jious q IS &c '.e
heavenly art 4 music which,
from centuries Of culture along pc
culiarly national lines, has become
a marked development of the ma
tional mind and subject of national
distinction and pride.
In time of great EFFICIENCY men
and nations are moved by music.
Animals are awed or pleased. by it.
Horses'are thrilled by the sound of
a brass band. Dogs have been
known to howl at the notes of the
piano, and pigs have evinced a
nervous delight at the sound of the
drum. And l am not sure but
that lf:One could bargain the old
boy to listen, one could dispel some
OF the deadly atmosphere that how

the unutterable charm of music.
On the bright Sabbath morn
when the golden sunlight streams
through the church windows; when
the halloWed calm of the day has
descended like a benediction upon

happy trees and joyous streams
