more than 1000 bills within the last
Is to 20 days. The other members of
this committee are Representatives
Brooks Price, of Union county; Victor
S. Bryant, of Durham; Sam M. Blount
of Beaufort county, and T. Spruill
Thornton of Forsyth. This committee
has met morning noon and night vir-
tually ever since it was appointed, the
members frequently having worked
until two or three o'clock in the morn
ing reading and passing on bills.
1.-THE committee has spent anywhere
from five to ten hours a day reading
and studying the bill referred to it,
Chairman Paylor said. 1--WE have tried
to hold as many meetings as possible
and several nights have worked until
long past midnight, trying to get
caught up. 1t has been big job, but
we have tried to be fair, to hear every
one who wanted to be heard and to
give every good bill a fair chance. We
have naturally reported great many
bills linfavorably, since many OF them
deuplicated laws already on the books
or were just naturally bad bills. There
have been very few sneak bills, how
ever, and not so many spite bills,
though there have been more of this
latter class Many of the local bills
and most of them have been local
have been trivial in nature We killed
these"
Chairman Paylor said he has per-
sonally read and studied every bill
which has been referred to the COM
mittee.
The Senate Calendar Committee. of
which Senator H. P. (Pat) Taylor is
chairman, has worked just as hard as
the House committee and the last few
days has probably had even more
work to do than the House committee,
due to the flood of bills that has come
over from the House. No bill is per-
nitted to go on the Senate calendar
unless it has first been studied by the
calendar committee and given a IA
vorable report. The members of this
committee, in addition to Senator
Taylor, are Senators H. M. Ratcliff,
of Forsyth, S. Gilmer Sparger, of
Sury; John D. Larkins, Jr., of Jones,
and w. 3. Rodman, of Beaufort coun-
ty.
Since very few new bills have been
introduced during the past week and
since most of the bills have at last
been acted upon the members of the
calendar committees for the first time
in three weeks today have virtually
nothing to do.

Contests Staged Leading
To- Education Centennial
Great Pageant Marking States Progress in Education
Will Be Presented In Duke Stadium Along With
Durham Meetin April 22-24

Durham, March 20 Especially
Scores of poems, essays, posters and
scrapbooks have been prepared by
school children in all sections of the
State and numerous other contests
have been stagedby the North Caro-
lima Educational Centennial Celebra-
ton Committee. headed by B. L..
Smith, of Greensboro. The contests
were staged as a means of further
stimulating interest of the people of
the State in the annual meeting of
the North Carolina Education Asso-
citation to be held here April 22-24, and
particularly the pageant that will fea-
ture the program. The entries are
being judged and special key emblems
Will be awarded the winners.
The emblem is an artists portray
al of ideas suggested by Chairman
Smith. Three significant steps in the
history of education are pictures:
First, the placing of William Beard
apprentice to Thomas Harvey and his
wife, Sarah. The date is 1895. The
lndenture imposes the obligation to
teach the apprentice to read. This
was the first suggestion of govern
mental responsibility for education in
North Carolina.
Second, the one room log school
house. The date is 1887. This type of
school building was characteristic of
the public schools for three-quarters
of a century. The abundance and
cheapness of timber are explanation
of the custom. The school house actu-
ally portrayed was the Lutz School in
Caldwell county.
Third, the modern school. The
date is 1897. The building is repre-
sentative of present day structures in
use throughout tn e State. The rays
OF the sunrise suggest the light of
knowledge and the dawn of a new
century of education
The keys are being manufactured

Jesus the Water of Life, John 40
26, for Sunday, Jan. II:
Jesus had spent the first year OF
his ministry chiefly in Judea, but as
there was a growing hostility toward
him, he passed through Samaria on
his way to Galilee, a more propl-
tious field of service.
v. 7, 8. ''There cometh woman
of Samaria to draw water; Jesus
saith to her, Give me to drink.
This disreputable woman furnished
Jesus an opportunity not only to
save soul, but to set an example
in extending gospel privileges to the
very lowest.
v. 8. "Then saith the woman Of
Samaria unto him, How is it that
thou, being Jew, asketh drink of
me, which am woman of Samaria
For the Jews have no dealings with
the Samaritans." The kindness OF
Jesus was surprise to this Samari-
tan woman, putting her into recep-
tive mood
V. 10. "JeSus answered and said
unto her, If thou knewest the gift
of God, and who it is that saith unto
thee, Give me to drink; thou
wouldest have asked of him, and he
Jesus aroused her curiosity, a fine
psychological approach to the soul
She did not know how near she was
to receiving a great blessing.
V. IL, IL. 1.-THE woman saith un-
to him, Sir, thou hast nothing to
draw with, and the well is deep:

were completed, and some were not,

build any more This tract of land
and the buildings were bought by
the people who have the mission.
