llldfl University, was elected. lvlr. Flowers was the youngest superintendent, being only twenty-one years old, but he proved a very able executive. hir. lflowers resigned in IS99 to accept a position with the American Tobacco Company. At present he is connected with Liggett and lVlyers To- bacco Company in New York. llflr. A. hflatheson, a teacher in the High School, and a graduate of Davidson College was elected superintendent succeeding hlr. Flowers. hlr. Mathesonls administration was marked by great expansion of school facilities. His dream was to have a separate High School building. In 1901 the corporate limits of Durham were more than doubled in area by extension. In the same year, the people, at an election, authorized the issuance of 510,000 for school buildings. This money was used in building the Pidgemont and North Durham Schools. These buildings were first used in the fall of 1901. Mr. Henry Highsmith, now supervisor of High Schools in the State Department of Education was first principal of North Durham School and lvlr. li. Green now Professor of ljnglish at Columbia College, South Carolina, was first principal of lfdgemont School. Prior to 1906 the High School was conducted on the second lioor of the lVlorehead School building. The large increase attendance made it advisable to have a separate High School building. In 1905 at a special election, bonds, amounting to 550,000 were issued for constructing a High School building. Land was purchased at the corner of Morris and Vfatkins Streets, and the Build- ing was erected and formally opened as an independent High School unit in September, 1906. Mr. YV. Brogden, now Associate -lustice of the Supreme Court of North Carolina, was the first principal of the High School as a separate unit. In the summer of 1906 lllr. hflatheson resigned as superintendent to become Professor of Pedagogy at the State Normal College for XVomen at Greensboro, and was succeeded by Mr. YV. D. Carmichael, then principal of the High School. Mr. Carmichael added an impetus for more efiicient and liberal scholarship. hflr. Carmichael resigned to take a position with Liggett and llflyers Tobacco Company and was succeeded by M r. li. Green who had become principal of the High School in June 1907 upon resignation of Mr. YV. lirogden. Mr. C. H. -lenkins succeeded hlr. Green as principal, and after a year was succeeded by Mr. M. .-X. Briggs, now Secretary of the City Board of liducation and president of the Austin Heaton Company. Mr. Green resigned as superintendent in 1915 and was succeeded by Mr. li. D. Pusey, at one time superintendent of Goldsboro Schools. ln 1923 an election was called to issue bonds for a new City High School. Bonds were issued to the amount of ff650,000 and the Central High School was constructed. Mr. Pusey resigned as superintendent in IQ23 and was succeeded by M r. F. M. Martin, ie su ierin encen o e e ers iurg fcioos. e are a ami iar wi i ie su encit wor' tone rl 1 titfthPtlxSll 'W llfl tltl llli 1.1 by Mr. Martin who died recently. ln IQZS the -lunior High School was constructed. All school buildings existing in 1901 have been enlarged from time to time, and the city has taken over the school buildings in both liast and XVest Durham and has constructed a new one for primary grades on Holloway Street. The schools of Durham today enjoy an enviable reputation for efficiency in training boys and girls for a greater citizenship, most of which is due to the line men who have led Durham Schools.
