GREAT TALK
ON HALIFAX CO,

With greatest frankness, beng
neighbor Of this county, Hon.
Gilbert I. Stephenson, Of Win
ston Salem, who made the com
mencement address last night
before the graduating class, gave
very concise and interesting
account Of Halifax county, out
lining four points Of public en-
deavor and praising wherein the
records showed the county had
dor1i well and pointing out
where it didn't come up to the
average condition of the state.
These four essentials Swere Roads
Churches, Schools and Santa
ton.
In Church attendance, school
attendance, good roads and heal
tn conditions, We were deplor-
ably behind other parts Of the
state, while in Church contribu-
ton and iteracy we were far a.
head. =-.,----sess-
Taking as his subject "Home
Fires he pointed out to the
graduates that Halifax county
was almost entirely pure bred,
there being but half on one per
cent Of foreign blood in it's resi-
dents. That the record of Hall
fax was one that we might we'll
be proud Of and the county stood
out prominently both in state
and national endeavor.
The speaker impressed upon
the class that here in Halifax
County ninety nine per cent of
the young people would be the
future makers Of history for the
county and, where broader
field was sought by any Of the
young citizens they would first
have to make good in the home
county before they would be e.
qulpped to take that larger
field.
Giving President Wilson as an
instance OF progressive endeavor
the speaker said that Wilson
would never have sat at the Pea
ce Conference table had he not
first equipped himself as a tea
cher Of politicale conomy at the
s college Of Brin Maur,
later at Princeton and finally in
the governor chair Of New Jer
'ey and as the president Of the
United States.
lnterspercing the program in
which DR.. Charles Anderson and |
Rev. Reuben Meredith took part |
selections were sung
most attractively by the grad
lates and Juniors, making the
vening a very entertaining one.
Following the distribution Of
he certificates the gradua,es
we're showered with flowers and
many gifets from friends which,
much applause.
