intendent of the Roxboro graded
Fchools up to the close of the last

cultured gentleman and comes well

The South Henderson eraded
school closed last Thursday with in
teresting exercises consisting of read
ings, recitations and songs, and was
well attended by patrons and friends
of the school. These exercises marked
the end of a very successful and sat
isfactory year with the South Hen
derson school. Mr. W. D. Horner
gave an interesting talk after the reg
ular program had been completed
on "What a Child Should Be," which
was listened to very attentively by
all present.
That was a glorious rain last night,
which began falling about eight
o'clock and continued for nearly two
nours. beldom has a rain ever been
needed worse in this county, and
hence it was only the more welcome.
Crops of all sorts were not only suf
fering, but without rain would have
been almost ruined in a few more
days. As it Is there will hardly be
more than half of a tobacco crop
made in the county unless there is a
wonderful outcome right away. Cot
ton had not suffered quite so much,
and in most places is looking very
well.
About 10:30 Tuesday forenoon the
fire alarm was sounded, and in a few
seconds the new horses were bound
ing along Garnett street, full tilt,
with the big combination chemical
fire wagon, going in the direction of
the fire like trained veterans of the
department. A great many people
thus got to see the new horses make
their first run to a fire, and were well
pleased with the results. The fire was
only a small blaze at what is known
as the "Watkins house" on Burwell
avenue, and was put out before the
firemen reached the scene. Little
damage was done."
We very much regret that two or
three interesting and newsy commu
nications from country correspond
ents got in too late for publication
this week. Correspondents should
mail their communications early in
the week, as there is always a rush
of matter iu the office the last two
days previous to publication and it
is therefore impossible to handle all
of the late matter and get the paper
out on time. All correspondents
must sign their names to their com
munications. The names will not
be printed in the paper. If name is
not correctly signed, the article will
under no circumstances be printed.
Raleigh
and Durham Suffer From
Storm.
During a severe rain, electric and
wind storm Friday evening, light
ning struck the wires in a special
shaft in St. Agues' Hospital, Raleigh,
through which the wires passed to
the different floors, aud set the shaft
on fire. Panic spread through the
hospital in which were eighteen negro
patients, who were gotten out with
out any serious results that have
yet developed. The damage by fire
and water was probably stouu. he
street cars were out of commission
three hours that night through dam
age to wires. .Numbers of trees were
blown down and there were danger
ous "live wires in dinerenc sections
of the city. Telegraph and long dis
tance telephone wires were consider
ably "kinked."
A storm at Durham about the
same time did $50,000 damage. It
wrecked the Venable tobacco factory,
which contained 50,000 pounds of
stored tobacco, blew down every
trolley wire, set fire and destroyed
the Chatham Hosiery company s
knitting mills, burned out half the
telephone system aud wrecked street
cars.
Several persons were burned by
crossed wires. All theatres were
closed as the city was left in total
darkness.
Everv trolley car was stopped.
The telephone system utterly demor
alized. The people were driven from
the streets by great waves of dust
and gravel. Colossal glass windows
were shattered and dashed into the
streets and wagons being driven over
the streets were bodily lilted and
turned over with men in them. A
barbecue party in automobiles
dashed into a live wire but backed
out with slisrht shocks. It is esti
mated that an entire week will be
necessary for the rehabilitation of
the telephone system. The Venable
Company will begin the immediate
erection of its prizery.
Train's Fatal Plunge.

City High School Closes.
TheHenderson Public High School
closed it9 lOlO-'ll term last Friday,
with a very interesting program of
exercises by the pupils in the fore
noon and a most enjoyable enter
tainment in the evening. There was
a good attendance of patrons and
friends of the school both morning
and evening, bespeaking a high de
gree of interest in the school on the
part of the people of tnie city and
community.
At 10 o'clock a. m., Dr. J. V. lluf
hani, formerly of this city, but now
of Creedmore, than whom there is no
more beloved man by the people of
Henderson, opened the exercises with
a very earnest and fervent prayer.
This was followed by a most beauti
ful song, "Blow, Soft WTinds," sung
by a choir of 80 girls.
Prof. J. A. Bivena, of the State De
partment of Education, was then in
troduced as the speaker of the day.
His most excellent address was full
of practical thought for older people
and appropriate advice for the
young, and measured fully up to th.p
standard of former addressed dow
ered here on similar occasions.
In the course of his remarks Prof.
Bivens said that every person is
either a "bromide" or a "sulphide."
In other words, one person is con
tent to remain quiet and let things
take their own course, while another
goes forth in his determination and
brings things to pass. After fully
elaborating this point to much ad
vantage, he closed with this beauti
ful thought:
"Life is beautiful, joyful and good,
and meant to be enjoyed by all, not
merely when a certain period or
stage of advancement nas been
reached, but every day in the year.
The man or woman who thus waits
for enjoy ment often finds when too
late that his or her capacity for en
joyment has become atrophied when
the point has been reached."
Rev. J. A. McClure, who is recog
nized as being one of the city's
brightest and most interesting speak
ers, presented two splendid pictures,
one of Shakespeare and one of Long
fellow, to the school from the Alma
Club. Superintendent Alderman ac
cepted these handsome gifts in behalf
of the school, most graciously thank
ing the donors and saying that ap
propriate and well selected pictures
are badly needed on the walls of the
school r. building and that he hoped
other clubs and organizations in
the city will follow the good example
of the Alma Club and help to supply
this long-felt want.
The Powell medal for best decla
mation, which wasgwon in the con
test Thursday morning by Master
Arthur Tyler, was presented by Rev.
W. R. Roy all, and the Caldwell med
al for English composition, won by
Miss Hat tie Cooper, was presented
by Rev. J. A. McClure.
Superintendent Alderman read the
year's honor roll, making the state
ment that every name called had ap
peared on every monthly honor roll
during the year.
Mr. D. Y. Cooper, chairman of the
school board, presented the certifi
cates to members of the graduating
class, all of whom were girls, and
asked the poignant question of the
people of Henderson, "Where are the
bovs?" Said Mr. Cooper, "If our
boys are to be allowed to quit school
before they obtain even a high school
education, our town is going to suf
fer thereby."
Dr. J. D. Hufham, the first chair
man of the Henderson school board,
and one who at the forefront of the
graded school movement twelve
years ago did much toward making
our present excellent graded school
facilities possible, had received a
double invitation to be present at
this time and take part in these exer
rises. He came first upon the invita
tion of the school and also as the
speaker for the graduating class of
1911.
Dr. Hufham made a short but
very happy address, and thereby en
deared himself iust a little more, if
possible, to the people of Henderson,
both old and young. He spoke brief
ly and interestingly of the beginning
of the school, and also of two oi lien
derson's public-spirited citizens who
gave so liberally of their means to
the support of the school when it
was run by private subscriptions,
and created quite a wave of mern
ment in the audience when he said
that twelve years ago Henderson had
a trraded school, which at that time
was the only one between here and
Liverpool.
A chorus completed the morning
exercises.
The evening exercises were opened
with a song by the chorus class
Miss Fannie Cooper was salutatoriaa
and was followed by Miss Yirgie
Harris, class historian: Miss Hattie
Cooper, prophet; Miss Adelaide Wat
kins, poet; Miss Sallie Garlic, critic,
and Miss Lessie Tyler, valedictorian.
A duet by Misses Mabel Jones and
Elizabeth Corbitt, an instrumental
solo by Earle Harris, and a recita
tion by Miss Fannie Smolensky, all
contributed very greatly to the en-
oyment of the evening, especially
the recitation by Miss Smolensky,
which deserves special mention.
As a very appropriate hnale to
the exercises, the six members of the
graduating class stood in a body in
tne center oi the rostrum and ren
dered a farewell song, the while pre
senting a most beautiful picture,
the dainty white dresses and many
beautiful flowers in evidence adding
much to an already pretty scene. '
That this was an unusually bright
class 6eems to have been the verdict
of all who attended the exercises. It
was at aiiv rate a most successful
ending of an unusually good school
year for Henderson.
la Honor of niss Roselle Harris.
Mrs. J. H. Tarham eave a very pretty
party Wednesday morning at her hand
some home in West Henderson to the
bride-to-be, Miss Roselle Hams, her at
tendants, and a few other friends.
Mrs. Parham first gave an original
toast to the bride-elect, tben passed
around dainty booklets to be filled in
with receipts. Misses Mary Terry, Uhvia
Lamb and Virgie Harris tied for the
prize. Upon drawing Miss Harris was
found to be the winner. Miss Julia
Cooper winner oi the booby.
A serving aisn was preseniu iu jiibh
Harris bv her hostess who then, assist
ed by Misses Lucy Parham, Laesie and
Maria watfcine, serreu rouuug iuutu,

ris, Lucy Petty. Mary Perry, Maria
Tucker, Belle Hicks, Jessie Harris, Julia
Cooper, Irene Betts, Janie Harris, Olivia
and Helen Lamb, Mrs. Asa Parham and

could chew. -
