non-white, but the percentage is
considerably higher than the av-
erage for the State as a whole.
Total average daily membership
in 1852 was 1889 Of whom
4,732 were Negro, or 35.5 per cent.
For the entire county outside of
Whiteville, the percentage was
slightly higher, 800. In Whiteville
city unit. the percentage was 1913.
Tabor City and other municipali-
ties in Columbus do not have sep
arate city school unis.
There are three counties in the
State where there are no Negro
public school pupils at all, and
there are three others where the
total amounts to less than one per
cent OF the total. The counties
having absolutely none are Clay,
Graham and Mitchell. In Madison
the total is only 9. per cent, is is
z per cent in Swain, and I per
cent in Yancey. There are % CO.
untieS in which the Negro pupils
are less than 10 per cent OF the
total.
Counties having the largest per-
centages of Negro pupils are pre-
dominently located in the sastern
section of the State, although tnere
are a few notable exceptions. In
the Winston-Salem city schools,
the average daily membership in
1928 was almost 43 per cent
Negro, and Durham was only
slightly less with 42.3 per cent. In
Charlotte, the largest city in the
State, the ratio of Negroes to
whites is almost one out OF three.
the exact percentage being 800.
Some of the proverbial except
ions which supposedly prove evety
rule are amusing, perhaps the best
illustration being Dare, the eastern
coastal county, where only 81 per
cent of its pupils are Negro, and
yet Dare is surrounded by counties
