It Was One of the Lectures in the
Faculty Series.
(The Trinity Chronicle.)
One of the best lectures that
has been delivered here this year
was that by Hon. J. Y. Joyner,
State Superintendent of Public
Instruction, last evening in the
Craven Memorial hall. ' His sub
ject was "A Message from, the
Educational F eld." Mr. Joyner
is most thoroughly acquainted
with the educational conditions
and needs in this State, and it
was very interesting to hear a
man so thoroughly imbued with,
deeply interested in the great
cause of education. He presented
every phase of the subject, and
made a very earnest plea for men
to devote their lives to the teach
ing prolusion and thusco'ribute
greatly to the good of the State.
Mr. Joyuer, began by saying:
''Young Gentlemen: I bnng you
a message from the field, where I
am an humble worker . for the
children. I bring it to you
young men, becaue you are
strong, because you are to be po
tent in moulding the thought, in
creating the ideals, in shaping
the destiny of the State." The
speaker thea gave the statistic of
North Carolina which shows that
there is a school population in
North Carolina of about 700,000
between the ages ot six and
twenty one 475,447 of which
are white and 231,051 colored.
According to the reports only 70.3
percent of the white children, and
,69.4 per cent of the colored
school population enrolled during
' the past year. On account oft he
large number of children who
are ont of the school it is evident
that there are thousands of chil-

dren in North Carolina on the
straight road to illiteracy.
Mr. Joyner then took up North
Carolina's place in school work in
the United States, saying that it
was next to the last in the black
column of white illiteracy in the
Union, as per the census of 1900.
He then spoke of the heroic efforts
being made to relieve the situa
tion, adding that he believed the
census ofiojo would telladifferent
story to the world.
The speaker after telling of
North Carolina's in educational
ranking, he told what is being
done to relieve the situation. He
said that the people were becoming
aroused to the importance of
education and its necessity as
never before. This is shown by
the voluntary voting in different
localities an additional burden of
taxation for the betterment of his.
chool. To supply the missing
link between the grammer school
instruction and the college, the
General Assembly of 1907 made
a special appropriation of 50,000.
for the establishment of public
high schools; and in many in
stances commutes and counties
have of their own accord duplicat
ed the amount He then spoke
of libraries that have been started
and the good that is being accom-
psished in this way.
Mr. Joyner was both powerful
and eloquent in his appeal to
college man to bear their part of
the common burden of universal
education and to give the ignorant
and illiterat the advantage of the
superior training.
Mr. Jorner then took up the
profession of teaching, showing
the need for strong men, and the
opportunities afforded. He also
stated that the demand was far in
excess of the suppy, saying that
the salaries were being increased
rapidly, as it was now understood
that to obtain good teacher a
sufficient inducement must be
offered. In chosing yovr life
work, said the speaker, don't
leave out of censideration the
Christ-like clement of service.
The address throughout was
powerful and numbers of things of
importance were discussed by Mr.
Joyner.
After the address the Tombs,
an organization of the college, en
tertained in honor of Mr. Joyner
in the banquet hall of the New
Dormitory. Refreshments were
served and a number of toasts re
spouded to. The occasion was
very enjoyable.

Bow BlscrliDlnalife freight Kales Work
Another result of the freight
rates which discriminate against
Charlotte and North Carolina is
found in the announcement in
this morning's paper that the
Allen Hardware Company, of
this city, has consolidated with a
Chester, S. C, eompany and the
business is to be transferred to
Norfolk, Va. The Adams Grain
and Provision Company, of Char
lotte, some time ago established
a ware house in Richmond, Va.,
which is now its principal ship
ping point, and two or more
years ago Mr. J. Lee Koiner
transferred his whole flour mill
plant and business to Virginia
all three for the reason of dis
criminative freight rates against
North Carolina. We have had
a great deal to say, from time to
time, of the ontrageous discrimi
nation against this State in the
matter of rates but no amount of
argument could be half so con
vincing as the simple statement
that two well established busi
ness have, within a recent period
been pulled out of one city and
transferred to a favored State
and that arrangements for the
removal of a third are now com
plete. These facts tell a tale to
which no number of words could
lend additional weight. -Char
