Carrollton’s worthiest asset.
What is it? Undoubtedly her
schools. They are our chiefest
treasure, our greatest glory.
Think—458 students enrolled
on the opening day of school:
what mighty lorces (or good and
evil are here represented : what
large possibilit es of success or
tailure, of happiness or misery.
And these 458 youngsters are
bone ot our bone and flesh ot
our flesh. Of course we are deep
ly interested in them, and they
are more precious than all else
in Carrollton combined.
Twelve first class, well equip
ped teachers there, should be
eighteen headed, by a most et
ficient Superintendent are to in
struct them, and disciple and de
velope them. No more sacred
task was ever committed to any
one, than is committed to Super
intendent Adams and his corps
of assistants. We want to con
gratulate Carrollton that such
a splendid man as Prof Adams
is to head this great work, and
his corps of teacher, we doubt
not, will measure uo to the best
expectations of the people.
But in order to do the best
work, let the patrons of theschool
remember thatthey should heartl
iy co opeiate with the teachers
in their all important work.
Look after children at home,
encourage themwith their les
sons, and ketp them off the
streets especially at night.
The Supt in his excellent open
ing address Monday morning
stated that the administration ot
the school this year would be a
progressive one. We endorse
the sentiment, and promise to
lend our best endeavor for tun
ther growth and progress in ed
ucational matters in our pro»
gressivecity and we call upon
all good and loyal citizens to
stand by our Board of Kduca-
tion and especially the Superim
tendent and teachers in the all
important work that confronts
them. J
The four new teachers were
in their places as follows :
Miss Carrie Villard, Principal
ot Girls High School.
Mr M F Sammons, Principal
of Boys High School.
Miss Louise Cornell, sixth
grade ; Miss Lillie Cone, fifth
grade; Miss Belle Hawes, iu
the third and fourth overflow
grades.
The School Board at its meet
ing on Wednesday afternoon
adopted the one session a day
rule which ninty per cent of
the mothers had petitioned for.
This rule does not cut oft any of
the recitation work. Hours from
8 130 to 2 o’clock.
FINE OPENING AT
A. & M. SCHOOL
Carroll County is justly proud
ol the A & M School of the 4th,
Congressional District.
The opening last week was
the largest in the history of the
institution. The domitories are
filled and overiflowing. This
attendance attested the popui
larity and worth of the Bchoo',
and is a splendid testimony to
the good work being done by
Prof. Melson and his assistant
teachers.
We believe this school is the
best and most-prosperous Jof its
kind in the state, and this is
largely due to the first class work
being done at the school. And
in this conuection we want to
especially commend the activity
of Prof. Melson and his labors
lor the welfare of this school.
Ths people of the county and
the District, we feel sure, appre,
ciate the good work being done
by this school; but appecialion
should be shown as well as felt.
And this can Ire best done by the
people ot the 4th Congressional
District, in the erection of an
other dormitory and other much
needed buildings and the proper
equipment of the school in every
wav.
SAD DEATH
OF A LITTLE GIRL
A very sad accident happened
last Thursday afternoon to the
little daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
Will . Boyd, who live 8 miles
southwest of this place, near
Bethesda Church. Mr. Boyd
was having some mowing done
when his little daughter ran in
to the machine, which cut one
foot off and mangled the other
so as to necessitate amputation.
The little one lived until 3
o’clock Wednesday morning.

Watch Carelesnss
Nobody deliberately allows his
watch to fall—or intentionally
abuse it. But thousands allow
their watches to run, or TRY to
run, when they ought to be laid
up for repairs.
What is the result?
Permanently injured watches.
We maintain a perfectly equipped
department here. It is no trick
at all for us to handle all kinds
of repair work. We can start
working for you almost any min=
ute you say.
Test our ability to render you
good service.
