County Public Library has dotu a rather unprecedented thing. Recently it purchased a biick- building for the use of a lilvrary for colored citizens. Kyuientlyf- the directors believe that the colored people, like others, can, will and" do react" to educational advantages as may be provided l'or them. The fact that the directors *are composed of high class men and wo niuii is liiijjfjruuijt uul, inat (iocs not spell the whole story. There must have been behind their action a community sentiment which enabled-them to take such a step, otherwise as liberal as they might i bo, such a step would hardly .have been taken, especially when it is! remembered that, so far, the whites themselves have not such a building, renting instead. Things of this kind are heart V., ening and appreciated by the thoughtful colored citizens. So o much has been said about the meager provisions made by the South for the educational improvements of its colored citizens that acts of this kind should receive more than passing notice. It is an indication that more and more the whites of the South are growing in liberalism and are determined to be fair> and just in dealing with them?* that is the thoughtful ones. ^ > ^mountain erryl; | echoes jl; \ By "CAP JIM- \ ; , "A pleasant hour". On the 1st 1 of October the Superintendent of the W. B. Hospital handed in her resignation to go into affect the 10th of November. This was a shock to the board and an act which brought real regret. For the reason that for the pass five year's the hospital under the efficient and congenial management of Mrs. E. C. Dudley and by the way the changing that name from Miss Horry t0 Mrs. Dudley caused all the trouble. Mr, Dudley being an instructor in one of the leading -ehools of?North Carolina desired lo have his better half near him. Well that's about the jway of all mankind?at least at the beginning?.So she like a good wife, decided ^o leave the Institution, >\ in i e sue nau made sucn a splendid record as manager and go in.o the field of home building. So in, honor of her work at the hospital quite a few of her friends and friends of the hospital wert invited to be present Monday ev'eitingj 7:30 at the W. B. Temple to join in a program of commendaion and regret. The occasion was .ighly enjoyed by those present, i'he many roses thrown to her by the different speakers proved tha. mankind still appreciate quality and worth. All of the doctors were present and each lavishly poUreu >ut praise for efficient service rendered at her post of duty. Then .he civic side in which she played ner part so well came in foi praise by thos^ thaf had-beenbenefited by her service, especially b> listening to that sweet solo voice ?f hers. The program was brought .o a happy ending with the introduction of the now superintenden. in the person of Miss O. T. Nelams, .who hag been for the pass b years the head nurse in the hospital. The' board followed a mighty .me rule, promoting one that has .proved herself wot thy. Another nurse'"who conies to be aie el the statf was alsoo intro .uced. From the program all ..vended their way into the next .bum. where a table laden down vitn'wctt prepared food and fruits .eemated with the most actraeiVe flowers from th gardens, 'stood*in waiting. One has sain platitude is the most choicest flow >-V that spring from the soul 01 men. We were pleased here of late .<> tun into to young men who .sere buying some land.

When they clear l ine niuiiey .on the farm as some .*re doing this fall everything sug -est iv.-eil to them as a good buy ave a heme. It is as true today | .?.s ij.was years ago, wheifuhe poet I.chimed it out: "Be it ever so humu'.f, there is no place like hohie". A real home can never be estab.shed among those that live in the ua i moving from place to plaCe. fdm future, the -present and the ?I nil |i nit in .tin.' s?inie direc-"' ..ton anil say the same thing: "Buy I i Home and L)o it Now!

It setiTis that the gods of fate have ordained that colored enterprises spring up, glow and flourish about mid-day; at evening wither and die'. Why it it? A long suecessfunsteady life does not seem to belong to the program. And a? for leaving a good going anything to pass oott tn the irext genera- : tion is wholy out of the question.

I ri.s w nr? iil-iu in ui ciiviiiu r i iuoy and Saturday (November 13-14). Quite a few of the educators of the state and county took part by discussing different subjects that had to do with making more effi cient teachers and the general advancement of the child. As quite I '( . ' ; - . TH1 ei few know there are some knotty We t problems to be solved in the edu- mas. :ational field In the state. We with trust by these kind of meetings til w rhuclPmay be done. The teach- ever) ers seemed to have had nothing A but praise for those' that render- New ed service?save one?and it seems n'?ht like regardless of how far in ad- sent vance in inter-racial understand ing there is one thing that a few ^ of our white friends can't understand: When addressing any kind jyjr of a colored group, teachers or famj] what not, that to call them 'Nig- Have gers' or 'Darkies' just turns their are j stomachs upside down. No man ter. or woman impresses a colored au- Su dience as being much of a friend into that comes with that "Nogger' or M. I 'Darky" stuq. And when one is this invited to make a talk to colored uual teachers, it seems to us that he netts or she ought be happy to address manj them in a term that common senst Gr and human feeling would dictate, obsei Not to be obnoxious. We say" Sund frankly that any one that has Pro? stood so far away from, and know 'on ^ A,.., ?u_*i- V ies. juv.it, nine ttuuut wiiat coiorea ^ people appreciate as to use, the words 'Nigger' and 'Darky" ought 1 never be put on >a program. Now we know that common courtesy d*. j0|in mands that ojne sit and listen until the address is over. But I tel. ^ you its bad enough when one is or. the chain gang with the chains a Li round around the legs .to have tc very listen hnd take that 'Nigger' stub pok often prefaced with a 'damn', bu. ing 1 when one is scdtt-free I feel ''ias courtesy be hanged.
