talked interestingly on his return from
the late meeting ofcounty superintend-ents
and other friends of public educa-tion
held at Kaleigh last week, which
was perhaps the largest aud in many
respects the most important ever held
in the state. About eighty counties,
he said, were represented by county
superintendents or members of the
county board of education, when the
superintendent could not attend. In
addition there were present college
presidents, professors, and other warm
friends of education. Among the latter
were Dr. Venable, of the University,
Dr. Mclver, two ex-state superintend-ents—
Messrs. Scarborough ana Mebane
—Dr. Buttrick, and others too numer-ous
to mention. The main purpose of
the meeting was to find out by confer-ence
and interchange of views with
representatives present what were the
present needs and wantsofthedifferent
sections of the state as to public school
matters, with the view of setting forth
in a series of resolutions wliat was the
sense of the large assembly ofeducators
as to the changes in the present school
law.
State Superintendent Joyuer had ar-ranged
a program for the consideration

that his health had been faiiiug for

To Prof. Wharton one of the most
pleasant experiences of tlie meeting
was to find out the high regard in which
tlie old county of Guilford was held in
this state in the matter of publicschool
education. It seems to be the general
opinion that in many respects Guilford
is in the lead. If this be true it will be
all the more important to work still
harder or we shall soon find the leader-ship
taken from us by such wide
awake counties as Mecklenburg, Wake,
with Mr. Jones in defense of
tbe Southland in a time which tried
men's souls. As adjutant of tlie local
camp of veterans for many years he
had demonstrated his interest in his
comrades, and they accorded his mor-tal
remains the last and highest honors
within their power. Beautiful flowers
were banked in profusion about the
casket and chancel during the service,
which was conduced by Dr. Turren-tine,
assisteil by Rev. C. E. Hodgin, of
Westminster church, and later these
emblems of purity and tokens of love
and esteem hid from view the cold un-feeling

the last resting place of him w ho was
so dear to many.
