The semi-annual session of the permanent board of the North Car-olina Yearly Meeting of Friends was held In the Asheboro Street Friends meeting house Tuesday for the trans-action of routine business. The ses-sion was presided'over by Mr. F. H. Nicholson, secretary of the board and there was a good aUendanc \ 22 members of the board being pres-ent.. The matter of most interest con-sidered by the board was the erec-tion of a new meeting house at Guil-ford College jointly by the yearly meeting and the New Garden, month ly meeting. The permanent boar decided to con'ribute $5,000 to the cost of the building. The New Gar-den monthly meeting is to contrib-ute the sum of $4,000, besides the lot on which the me:tlng house is to stand and it is 'the plan to secure as much as $3,000 more by private subscription and erect a beautiful $12,000 meeting house. The committee on the Blue Ridge mission in its report recommendee" that the sum of $100 be donated to that institution to help defray the-erection of a part of the missioi which was destroyed by fire some time ago. The board accepted th< report and the secretary was author-ized to forward the amount to th mission at once. The executive committee of the church extension also me' and trans-acted the usual routine business, vot-ing the resular appropriations, as they have ex'sted during the past Co! p.iny . :,28 South Elm street. of this.

Guilford county has become so ac-customed to leading in all matters of progress and development .hat the announcement that Guilford leads in any particular line is hardly an item of news, for it is no more than the publ c expected. It mav surpr se some people, however, to learn that Guilford is leading all the other count es of the state in rural tele-phone extension, as she is leading them in good roads, better schools' and improved farms. Last week a meeting of of icials of the Southern Bell Telephone Com-pany was held in Charlo.te, and the? follow ng is taken from a report of the meeting as published in the daily papers: "The spread of the rural telephone has been one of the mest progres-sive rters taken- by the Sou'h rn farmer, and the advantages accru-ing to the farmer have be n suffi-cient to create a demand for tele-phone service in all sections. "The rapidly of the growth may be appreciated when it is stated that there were 11.390 farraei s connected with the Southern Bell system on March 1, 1910, and there a-e now approximately 25,000 such station: eonnect-d or under contract. Of these more thai 4,883 are in North and South Carolina. "Guilford county 1?, as usual, lead-er in matters of this kind, and there are now connected up and in reach of Greensboro bv telephone, 262 farmers. Th"se farmers are reach-ed through the means of farmers' the farmers' exchange* being located a' Brown Summit, Summerf'eld and Gu'lford College, and at the house of J. W. Clapp in Gilmer township.

To lay aside a "snug little sum for a rainy day" is a com-mendable undertaking, and certainly worth all the effort any savings account ever re-quired, when the "rainy day" comes. But satisfying as these benef.ts are, they have not the merit that comes of the training acquired in suc-cessfully conducting a savings account. To have learned the principles of economy is to have your independence and happiness assured. Such are some of the great values of a savings account. This bank en-courages such accounts by pay-ing 4 per cent, interest on them, compounded four times a year. Checking accounts in any amount cordially invited.

A NEW MEETING HOUSE.
Handsome Houte of Worship to be
Erected at Guilford Ccllcge.
The semi-annual session of the
permanent board of the North Car-olina
Yearly Meeting of Friends was
held In the Asheboro Street Friends
meeting house Tuesday for the trans-action
of routine business. The ses-sion
was presided'over by Mr. F. H.
Nicholson, secretary of the board
and there was a good aUendanc \
22 members of the board being pres-ent..
The matter of most interest con-sidered
by the board was the erec-tion
of a new meeting house at Guil-ford
College jointly by the yearly
meeting and the New Garden, month
ly meeting. The permanent boar
decided to con'ribute $5,000 to the
cost of the building. The New Gar-den
monthly meeting is to contrib-ute
the sum of $4,000, besides the
lot on which the me:tlng house is
to stand and it is 'the plan to secure
as much as $3,000 more by private
subscription and erect a beautiful
$12,000 meeting house.
The committee on the Blue Ridge
mission in its report recommendee"
that the sum of $100 be donated to
that institution to help defray the-erection
of a part of the missioi
which was destroyed by fire some
time ago. The board accepted th<
report and the secretary was author-ized
to forward the amount to th
mission at once.

GUILFORD LEADS AGAIN.
Something of Rural Telephone Ex'en-lion
in Ihie County.
Guilford county has become so ac-customed
to leading in all matters
of progress and development .hat the
announcement that Guilford leads in
any particular line is hardly an item
of news, for it is no more than the
publ c expected. It mav surpr se
some people, however, to learn that
Guilford is leading all the other
count es of the state in rural tele-phone
extension, as she is leading
them in good roads, better schools'
and improved farms.
Last week a meeting of of icials
of the Southern Bell Telephone Com-pany
was held in Charlo.te, and the?
follow ng is taken from a report of
the meeting as published in the
daily papers:
"The spread of the rural telephone
has been one of the mest progres-sive
rters taken- by the Sou'h rn
farmer, and the advantages accru-ing
to the farmer have be n suffi-cient
to create a demand for tele-phone
service in all sections.
"The rapidly of the growth may
be appreciated when it is stated that
there were 11.390 farraei s connected
with the Southern Bell system on
March 1, 1910, and there a-e now
approximately 25,000 such station:
eonnect-d or under contract. Of
these more thai 4,883 are in North
and South Carolina.

There are farmers' lines reaching tei

of others are now being built to dif-ferent
