There were several different kinds of candle holders, which were made of wood, bronze, tin, Hlllil all kinds of metals. These candle holders suggested the lamps At first the lamp was made on the order of the candle. The lard was put into a tin vessel, in the middle of which was a small cylinder, a bit of cotton was put in the cylinder and then lighted. A little later came the German vapor lamps. ln the bottom of this lamp melted lard was poured, and the wick, which had previously been saturated with liquid, was then lighted, which heated liquid into vapor and thus kept the lamp burning. Then came the kerosine lamp with prisms attached to it, and finally an electric light bulb which was used in Salem in 1881 . The matches in early days were made by dipping cedar matches into sulphur. The second tire-engine brought to America, is in the museum. This engine was used for years by the early in- habitants of Salem. lt is a quaint wooden affair not much longer than a large wheel-barrow with a handle to it and gutta-percha buckets placed on either side of it. The oldest printing-press in North Carolina is also in the 'Wachovia museum. This press was brought to Hillsboro, N. C. before the Revolutionary 'War, and while there it was used to print some of the various proclamations of Lord Cornwallis. About 1827 it was purchased by Mr. John C. Blum of Salem, N. C., who established the printing busi- ness in Salem and began the publication of l3luni's Al- manac . The VVeekly Gleaner was published in Salem in 1829. In looking over the old pile of The Gleaner , I saw a quaint notice of a new machine invented by a man in Michigan, for printing letters. The article said that a young lady could sit in front of this machine and play on it just as she would on a piano, and in the 2 SECTION B. YEAR CLASS.

One of my friends who was with me said that the most interesting things to him were the cooking utensils. But there are so many of these that I can name only a few of the most important. There is the old-fashioned bake-oven, the clay crockery, the wooden sausage-grinder, the coffee roaster, which was fastened on a stick and put over the fire on a hook, meat and hash choppers, the long ,handled skil- lets, an apple pealer, pots of every description and size, batter-cake turners, steak dishes from Germany, and huge plates. U A In addition to these articles used by white settlers, there are many Indian relics such as Indian baskets, made by Indians in South America, idols, dishes, woven baskets, arrow heads, eocoanut vases and bowls which were fashioned out of a cocoanut, Indian saddles, moecasins, skins, and as a fitting climax to the Indian relics, there is a ehild's scalp that was found by a man at Old Town, N. U., in 1905, while sawing into a poplar log. Other things of interest that cannot be classified are, flags used in the Revolutionary and Civil Vllars, old fash- ioned organs with one pedal and stops, three on a side, old piano, one of which was played at a reception given to George VVashington, pieces of the ill-fated battleship Maine, old tooth-pullers, that makes the bravest of hearts shudder to look at, knee and shoebuckles, all kinds of locks, ink-holders a hundred years of age, scales for Weigh- ing foreign eoin, sea trunk covered with hair, quaint hat boxes, petrified wood, oil paintings, mangle, ironing ma- chines, sun dials, cyelometers, and typewriters.

FIRST YEAR CLASS. THE J ff' Ol xv THE BLACK AND GOLD p27 A Stnrg nf C9121 Salem OR several. days stragglingvbands of militia had been passing through the little village of Salem. Q 97 f . . . . lt was during that period of the Revolutionary X gA'b '!ax lYar when Greene. closely pursued by Corn- wallis. was making his famous retreat across our State. Karl, look down the hill! There comes another band of Red Coats. said a young lad, appearing around the corner of the single Brethren 's House. There the two boys stood with wide-opened eyes, gazing longingly at the band approaching until the call of Herr Schmidt summoned them lr-ack to their work. Just at that moment, the news was brought that lf'ornwallis had crossed the Yadkin and was nearing Salem. However, this stirred but little emo- tion in the breasts of the Moravian boys, since they were accustomed to take everything quietly. The little village itself seemed to speak peace and comfort. Vtlhile the other settlers in the country around were suf- fering hardship in their pioneer homes. the Moravians were enjoying the comforts of the old country. Their life Cen- tered around thelr church. lt was for their church. they held their lands, plowed their fields, wrought at all kinds of trades. lt was according to the customs of their church that they brought up their young people, placing the boys at an early age in the Single l3rethren's House that they might be taught some trade. and the girls in the Single Sisters' House. The young girls and boys of the village were allowed no social intercourse. Vllhen the girls walked out, they might not pass by the Single Brethren 's house. while the Single Brethren were not allowed even to look at the girls. Believing that it was wrong to light, the Moravians took no actual part in the Revolutionary War. Thus, it was SECTION B. SS. CLA YEAR OND SEC E TH J I CV! x.f THE BLACK AND GOLD 29 that the inost stirring ambition of the young 1llEIl1,S life-to do deeds of valor for his country-was denied Karl and the other young inen of the Brethren's House. File by Hle the Red Coats inarehed into Salem. A little past noon, Cornwallis and his staff drove up the cobble- stoned streets, and halting before the quaint. tile-roofed honie of the Single Sisters, they were about to take posses- sion, when in great consternation, Herr Marshall and the head of the church caine tlying across the square. Your Lordshipf' they said in their inost courtly fashion, it will never do, the Single Brethren 's House inust be your headquarters. So to the Single Brethren 's House they departed. Have your best supper served, was Herr Marshall's orders. So to the kitchen, Herr Schmidt, the head of the house, went with a smile on his round face, and began nani- ing to the cook various good things which he thought would please his Lordship. Suddenly he stopped, arrested by the look on the eook's face, a look of unutterable scorn. Ile in- quired what was the inatter. and was told that if anybody thought he was going to cook supper for those Red Coats they were sadly inistaken. He couldn't fight thein, but he certainly wasn't going to cook for thein. lt was in Vain that Herr Schmidt reinonstrated with hiin, inildly at first, but soundly, as the eook reinained stubborn. Finally, in low spirit he sought out Herr Marshall and told hiin the state of affairs. But Herr Marshall received no better results in talking with the cook. so he and Herr Schmidt, after a hur- ried consultation in the hall, decided that some one inust go over to the Sisters, House and see if they would not prepare supper for their distinguished guest. Now of all the girls in the Sisters, House, there were none who could cook so beautifully as Anne Henrietta and Gretchen, so when it was found that supper was to be pre- SS. CLA YEAR THIRD THE J G OD Nr THE BLACK AND GOLD 31 pared in the Sisters' House for Cornwallis, the elderly sister, who had charge of the kitchen, begged that these young girls might assist her in serving a. meal, in keeping with the housewifely reputation of the Moravians. So that was why it was that Karl and Johan. when they came with great hampers to carry the supper across the street, had chance for a word with their beloved play-mates of the old Infant-School days. How fine a thing it is to be a soldierf' said Karl. As if you k11ew anything about it. answered Anne Henrietta, Q-obbling about in the Brethren 's House, for Karl was learning to be a cobbler. If I were a man, said Gretchen, I would go out in the world and do something . The boys determined as they went baek to the Brethren's House to show Anne Henrietta and Gretchen that they could do something. As they were serving the supper to Cornwallis, they overheard some of his plans for out-wit- ting Greene. As if oblivious to the fact that the two boys were in the room, Cornwallis began bragging about a cer- tain trap he had set to catch Greene in. 'tNow is the time. said Karl, as they slipped from the room, to do something for our country. For after all, we are Americans, and though we have not been able to show our love for our country, even now we may prove that we are patriots. They slipped down to the barn to talk over their plans. Several days before this, stragglers from Greene's army had passed through Salem and through them the boys had learned that Greene was making for Guilford Court House. Now at the supper table, Cornwallis had bragged of a certain trap he was setting to prevent Greene from uniting his two forces at Guilford. Ulf we could just get to Greene before Cornwallis can THE BLACK AND GOLD 33 earry out his plans, said Karl, Uwe eould save his whole army . Oh said Johan, 'tl have a plan. I know of a short eut to Greene's army. Last summer when we were bringing the store supplies from Cross Creek, Herr Bagge showed it to us. Even if the Red floats get an hour or two start of us. we ean beat them after all. The boys hid until the great eloek in the Brethren 's House struck nine. They knew then the llouse was elosed for the night. Perhaps that 's the last stroke of the eloek we shall ever hear. said Johan soberly. lt would have taken but little persuasion to have kept him from the adventure. But Karl was of stouter heart. Now's our time. whispered he, we had as well die serving our eountry as doing anything else. And so he led his friend out of the little town, down past the Sisters' House into the great woods beyond. As they passed by the Sisters' House, they thought they saw a slight figure at one of the windows. Karl erept up to the window . A eobbler may serve his eountryf' he said softly. He waited a. moment. Then easting a last lingering glanee at the little window, he swiftly joined his comrade. The next day found the boys in Greene is eamp and when the Red Coats eame up. hoping to surprise the brave Ameri- cans in their eamps, they found, to their disgust, the very dinners on the fire but the soldiers gone. At the close of the war. Johan and Karl returned to Salem, and not a. person in the whole town but was glad to Weleome them baek. There were two, espeeially, who were glad to see them, the two shy maidens who had helped them CLUB.

She felt that there was no earthly physieian who eould eure her. Yet she would not discourage her children. Perhaps after all, it would be best for the good Moravian to know about her ehildren. Vilhen she was gone- lXIother, Davidls strong young voiee broke in upon her thoughts, see, the sun has eoine out to bid ine go forth. He pointed to the window, where for the first time in days, the sun eould be seen breaking from behind the gray elouds.

With l1is fatherls old gun aeross his shoulder, David set out with a stout heart. lt was well he was young and brave, for an unbroken forest lay between his hoine and the settlement of the Moravians inany iniles away. The win- ter had been unusually eold, and the wild beasts, unable to procure food, had beeoine so desperate they would eoine almost to the doors of the eabins. Even now. though spring had eoine, it was dangerous for anyone to go through the forest alone, for not only were the beasts as tieree as ever, but the Indians were on the war path, and at any nnnnent a traveller inight eoine upon thein. llut David was not afraid, and when he started on his walk, the air was so fresh and eool that he felt as though he eould walk a thousand iniles. But it was hard walking through the unbroken forest. There were swollen streains to eross. in plaees the under- growth was so dense, David had to eut his way through, there were long stretehes of woods where the sun never shone. his feet sank in the soft ground, inade slippery and treacherous by the spring rains. At times he eould hear the hungry wolves away in the distance, and onee the sereain of a wild eat broke the deathly stillness of the forest. ESTRA.

As the day was growing to a elose. he reaehed a little cleared space. Before the light faded entirely, he thought he eould gather- soine underbrush and build a eainp-fire. At the first streak of day, then he would press on to Beth- abara.. It was no use trying to get there in the pitehy dark- ness. Suddenly a queer sound niade hiin stop and listen- a stifled groan or grunt right behind hiin. He whirled quickly, expecting to find-he knew not what. But there was nothing. He beat around in the bushes, he listened, but he heard no sound but his own fast beating heart. Graspiiig his gun, ready to use it at a inon1ent's notice, he pushed forward. This was no place to eneainp for the night. After a half hour's inareh he sank down with ex- haustion. Again the queer sound broke upon the stillness of the night. David grasped his gun. lt was too dark to see anything. lle had a queer sensation. he felt that sonie one was near hiln. XYho are you?'l l1is own voiee startled hiin. Away in the distanee, a pack of wolves began answering one another. Half frantie with fear, the boy started off again. Cool- ing down after a while, however, he began to think that perhaps it was only his iniagination. after all. So finding a sheltered spot underneath an overhanging boulder. he gathered a handful of twigs and started a fire. liy the light of the lire he gathered enough brush to last during the night. As the cheerful blaze lighted up the darkness, he began to feel better and taking his supper out of his bag. he leaned baek against the roek to enjoy hini- self. Overeoine by eold and weariness, he soon fell asleep. He did not know how long he had slept. He awakened sud- 40 THE BLACK AND GOLD denly, with the feeling that some o11e was near him. He saw that his fire had been replenished during his sleep. In sudden fear he reached out for his gun. lt was gone. Da-veed , the name spoken in softly broken tones, brought the boy to himself. There in the dark shadow, half knelt an Indian squaw, an old woman, whom David 's mother had often befriended. ln broken tones she told him how she hail followed him all night, how the Indians had planned to destroy llethabara the next day, how in the darkness of the night they were surrounding the little village, and as the sun rose in the morning they were going to fall upon the unsuspecting set- tlement and kill every man, woman and child. The Mora- vians had been kind to the old woman and she hail started out to warn them. But she was old and sick, and when she found David going on the way to l3ethabara, she determined that he should carry the message. So that was why she let him sleep, that he might with refreshened energies, start out in time to reaeh Bethabara before daybreak. Having learned of the old woman of a short way to reach Bethabara, David started at once on his perilous journey. Half dead with weariness and exhaustion, he at length reached the outskirts of Bethabara, only to find that the high palisade around the town prevented him from entering. He was afraid to attract the sentinel's attention, lest he might also attract the attention of the Indians. VVhile he foundered along, looking for some opening. he stumbled over some roots and fell heavily to the grounil. The softest bed in the country would not have felt better to him, at that time. than the hard eold ground he had fallen on, but he resisted the temptation of remaining in that position, and some how managed to crawl to his feet. Suddenly the sound of running water struck his ear. and going forward he saw a small stream which ran under the palisade and THE BLACK AND GULD 41 into the village. His joy knew no bounds. Falling on his knees in the snow, he offered up a silent prayer of thanksgiving to God. then with renewed strength he arose and examined the narrow opening. He saw the only way he could get in would be to swim, for the water was several feet deep at this point, so wrapping up his shoes in his coat and tying them to his baek, he plunged into the icy stream. The water was so cold that it almost took his breath away, but getting his second wind, he kept on and in about five minutes he crawled up on the bank and began to jump up and down in order to get his blood circulating. The little village of Bethabara lay asleep in the chilly darkness. No sound could be heard except the low moan of the wind as it passed over the village, into the graveyard beyond. The old watchman had just turned in, after the last hour of the night, with t'Day is breaking and all's well with the town. It was a very quaint little village. with its cobble-stone streets, its tiny square in the heart of the village, with the comfortable homes clustered around, the l3rethren's House. the Single Sisters' Huse, the one store of the village, the blacksmith's shop, the Cobble-r's, the hatter's, the Church. The ehureh was a low, rambling building, with many windows and doors. Even in the dim light of the early morning it had a homey look about it. David knew that the minister and his family lived in the ehurch, for once, years before, he had visited Bethabara with his father. He knew that Hans Peter, the minister's son was a lad just about his age, and he decided that it was to Hans Peter he would give the message. Now it was Hans Peter's business to ring the ehureh bell every morning for sunrise prayer. For these good Mo- ravians were in the habit of asking God's blessing upon their town eaeh morning. It was an hour or two before time 42 TH E BLA UK AN D GOLD for the warning bell, but for some reason Hans Peter couldn't sleep that morning. The old watchman had just waked him up with his cry under his window, 4'Allls well with the town.' So he heard Davidls knocking at the door, and putting his head out the window, he caught the half-whispered message, ' ' The Indians I I ' Now it was well known in Bethabara that when the In- dians threatened the village that the church bell should be rung as a signal for the men to gather their arms and for the women and children to assemble at the church for pro- tection. So when Hans Peter heard that dreaded cry, The Indians! he ran to the belfry, and seizing the rope, he rang the bell for dear life. Ding-dong! ding-dong! sounded the little bell in the clear morning air. The Indians, crouching low behind the palisade, waiting for the sun to rise to begin their work of bloodshed and fire, were terrified when they heard the bell pealing out. Thinking the unheard-of-sound was some charm the pale faces were working for their harm they turned and fled to their camps miles away. Nor did they soon attempt another attack against the little settlement. VVhile, as for David,-the grateful Moravians not only bade their good doctor accompany him home to cure his sick mother, but told him to bring the little family back with him that they might live in Bethabara until the Indian troubles were ended. -Class of 1912.

A x i In tl1e newspaper world tl1e 1131116 of Mrs. Lindsay Patterson SJE?tl1ClS l1igl1. VVell known as a leader a111o11g tl1e club XVUH1611 of our state, having been President of tl1e State Federation of XYOIIIQIMS Clubs, Ftlld also Vice- Regent of tl1e Daughters of tl1e Anierican Revolution, she is better known, perhaps, as a contributor to tl1e Charlotte Observer and other State papers. Mrs. Patterson l1as conferred a great benefit to our State fl'0111 a literary sta11d- point by tl1e establishineiit of tl1e Patterson Me111orial Cup. This l1as lJ9E'11 a great incentive to the literary workers of our State. Another well known newspaper writer of North Carolina is Miss Jennie Buford. Though 11ot livi11g i11 our toivn at tl1e present tiine, I feel justified i11 inentioning her, as she spe11t a great part of l1er life l1ere. Miss Buford is a rec- og11ized authority i11 tl1e newspaper World. She is very versatile i11 l1er writing, which includes every tl1i11g f1'0l1l verse to deep political subjects. For years students of Southern Literature have ranked John Henry Boner a111o11g tl1e great poets of tl1e S011fl1. Born i11 Salein i11 18-15, Boner spent tl1e early part of l1is life i11 tl1is quaint old town, a11d no doubt it was the tender 1116111- ories of early days that inspired l1i111 to write some of l1is beautiful poe111s. In l1is VOll11118 of Doeins entitled VVhis- peri11g Pinesl' he gives us niany glimpses of the old life i11 Salem. In ?ldCllJEl01l to bei11g a poet, Boner was ai strong editorial writer, contributing to the Literary Digest a11d the New York Vllorld. He was also o11 the staff of the Century Dic- 44 THE BLACK AND GOLD tionary. His life was full of hardships and toils, but his thoughts eoneerning that long and endless sleep are shown in this stanza from Witl1 Him Who Pities the Oppressed : They see the rest, the long sweet rest From hopeless anguish, tearful grief, And know that they will find relief With Him who pities the oppressed. A But Boner is not the only maker of sweet verse, our town is proud to elaim. Under the pen name 4'O.H, Miss Sallie Dickson has for years contributed poems not only to the Charlotte Observer, but also to other daily and religious papers of the South. Vtfhen Miss Dieksonis beautiful poem, Flotsam, appeared in the Charlotte Observer sever- al years ago, it was widely eopied, one of the Raleigh papers ealling it the best poem ever written in North Carolina . The following lines are from 4'Lost,', a poem about which John Charles McNeill wrote: Your verses in today's Observer are exquisite. Just a small home-made doll- The notice read, And rag at that-and all Who read it said: Only a ehild's rag doll . Oh you who smiling read Oh This tale of woe You careless ones, take heed Lest you may know The loss of some rag doll . Some loss that others deem As small as hers. Some little hope, some dream Wliieli sorrow stirs Like this-a ehild's rag doll. THE BLACK AND GOLD 45 Miss Diekson, in addition to a volume of poems, has pub- lished a number of stories, many of them dealing with our mountain people. Perhaps the best known are t'The Story of Marthy, Reuben Dalton and Ralph Fabian's Mis- takesv, which is a prize story. Another writer of verse known outside the narrow radius of the home walls is Miss E. A. Lehman of the Salem Fe- male Academy and College. who is recognized as one of the foremost educators i11 the State. Tl1e little volume of her poems published by the Grafton Press of New York in 190-1 shows a love of God and nature permeating her verse, lifting thought to higher and better things. Among her best known poems are: Sunset on Pilot Mountain , t'The Graveyard Cedars, Ode on Bethabara Sesqui Centen- nial, The Silent Village, in which is found that oft- repeated quotation: The time is not yet 'Tis scarcely noon-there are foes to be met, Thy work is still to be done. The evening will bring thee home. and ln Memory of John Henry Boner. He caught his music from lsraiil High chords from his tuneful lute, But alas the singer lies pale and still His heart strings shattered and mute. Two names have already been mentioned as writers of poetry but there still remains another. The Rev. Plato Durham, at present Presiding Elder of the VVinston District of the Westerii North Carolina Methodist Conferenee, has written numbers of poems, some of which have been pub- lished in the Charlotte Observer, and others in the Century Magazine. Among his poems are: Trinity Dellsn, Amer- 46 THE BLACK AND GOLD ica Suppliantf' a poem at the close of an article on Robert E. Lee, the first stanza of which is: The years have wrought their miracles, America is one. The Dream of Lee and Lincoln, out of light and shadow spun Has come to long fulfillment, and their shining task is done. and the poem in which North Carolina is supposed to be speaking to Chas. B. Aycock. I would like to quote every line of it, but will quote only the first and last stanza. Come rest within my mother arms, my son, The night has come, the day's long work is done, So nobly done that I shall stand to keep An endless vigil o'er thy mortal sleep. VVhen marble monument and brazen bust Shall crumble back again to formless dust, Thy name, deep graved in love's unfailing art, Shall still be written on my children 's heart. Dr. Edwin Mims said of this poem: The new poem goes straight to my heart. This is the kind of poetry I have been looking for from our Southern poets. Among the writers of short stories in our town, the name of Miss Edna VVilson, a graduate of the Winstoii High School stands high, for, although very young for a writer, she has contributed several short stories to the Charlotte Observer, which have attracted much attention. Mrs. John Beard is also well known as a writer of stories, having contributed several books and articles to the realms of litera- ture. Another of our writers, with an established reputa- tion, is Mrs. Ida Golding Riddle, who has contributed numbers' of stories to the different periodicals, principally the Charlotte Observer and the Twin City Daily Sentinel. THE BL.-lC'II ANI! GOLD 47 About five years ago Mrs. Riddle agreed to take a trip to Novia Scotia and other places in that vicinity, in order that she could write an account of the trip. One of her best stories, Her Treasure, a detective story of NVestern North Carolina, was published in the March, 1908 number of VVatson's Jelfersonian Magazine, of Atlanta. The Senti- nel said of it: The story is interesting and cleverly writ- ten. Mrs. Riddle has also written several poems. Miss Ida Hinshaw is a story writer of almost national re- pute. Besides contributing to such state papers as the Sentinel. Charlotte Observer, News and Observer and the North Carolina Advocate, she contributed a long article on 'tEaster Moravian Services to the New York Evening Post, and one on VVhistler,s Early Drawings to the Cen- tury Magazine. Also her article pertaining to Cornwallis' visit at Huntsville will appear in the next issue of the Jour- nal of American History, one of the highest priced maga- zines in the United States. Mr. NV. T. Vlilson, a rising young lawyer of Vtlinston, wrote For the Love of Lady Margaret. a book well known among the lovers of romance. Mr. VVilson contributes largely to the Charlotte Observer and other State papers. Some of Mr. NVilson's best short stories are The Green Room, The Fifth Corner, f'The Strange Murder of James King. l' Our town is proud to claim two historians. Miss Adelaide Fries has written a History of Forsyth County, which gives an excellent description of our county from its found- ing to recent years. Miss Fries, besides contributing to the daily papers and periodicals of our State, and also to several prominent historical magazines. has written another history entitled The Moravians in Georgia. Our other historian is Dr. John Henry Clewell. In his 4'History of 'Wachovia we get another fine account of the settlement and building up of Forsyth county and its towns. 48 THE' BLACK AND GOLD One of our town 's most successful young writers is Mr. Gilbert T. Stephenson, who obtained his education at VVake Forest and afterward at Harvard, receiving the degree of A. M. at both places, and that of L. L. B. at the latter. In 1906 he represented Harvard as the Commencement Grator of the Graduate School, and in 1910, secured a li- cense to practice law. His chief work is a book entitled Race Distinctions in American Law. NVhen this book was published about the latter part of 1910, it produced a profound impression, not only throughout this continent, but even through a large part of the civilized world. One of the New York newspapers, in commenting upon the book, had in it these words: A copy of the great French publica- tion, the Bulletin Mensirelle de lllnstitute de Sociologie Salvoyw was received here yesterday, and it is noticeable, though Greek to the reporter, that it contains a seven page review of Mr. G. T- Stephenson 's book, Race Distinctions in American Lawn. Besides hundreds of letters and clip- pings from various papers. the author has received letters from foreigners, commending his work. Among these were letters from Mr. Chas. E. Guinnell, late editor of American Law Magazine, but now retired and spending several months in Switzerland, R. S. Howard, of Rangoon, India, and J. L. Shaysman, of the Imperial Pie-Yong University, China. Ex-Judge George P. Pell is recognized as one of the greatest of the legal authorities in our state. Mr. Pell has devoted much time to legal literature, and his contributions have been of permanent and special value to all the lawyers of North Carolina. He was secretary of the Code Com- mission, which published the revisal of 1905, he is the author of Pellls Banking and Negotiable Instrument Law, and also writes frequently for the papers of this state. But the monument on which his fame rests secure is that he is the author of 'fPell's Revisal of North Carolina Laws. Mr. THE BL-U'lf AXU GULII 49 D. H. Harris, of Jefferson City, Mo., said of this work: The index of your work is so admirably a11d thoroughly done. Also tl1e late Chas. B- Ayeoek said: I do not see how any North Carolina practitioner can hope successfully to eonduet his business without having this book constantly before him. My task is now done. As I said before, a seareity of space prevents iny nientioning all the writers of our town. Just as the literary spirit of our town has grown within the last ten years. let us hope that when the succeeding deeade rolls by, this spirit may have increased in the saine propor- tion. Prof. Edwin lXIllllS said: 'tThe only thing your town needs in order to beeoine the largest in the State, is for some literary persons of note to reside in it. If that utopian time is destined not to be brought about by some of the above writers. then may their inantle fall upon one of the future generation. -Robert Vaughn. - ' Q fra e II el li fillf gg E 'i li - IQ?

C., as Second Class Mail Matter. if hitnrial LLgthe articles in this issue of the magazine are of local interest. The two stories are based en- tirely on the interesting facts of which we lind 'i-Q4 4 so many in Salem, but the stories running through them are original. All of the material has been written by the members of the senior class as it was agreed that this should be their issue of the magazine. The class of 1912 is more fortunate than any other class in the history of the VVinston City High School, because we have the rare privilege of graduating twice from the same institution. Since this was the case We thought that per- haps the usual exercises might become monotonous for us and for the public at large, so We decided to break this monotony by giving The Princess . This well known play of Tennyson's is being given for commencement all 52 THE BLACK AND GOLD over the country in High Schools and Colleges. We hope to make it a brilliant success and distinguish ourselves at the same time. 'li The progress of the Vllinston City Public Schools during the session of 1911-12 has been Worthy of special notice. ln every department some material improvement has been made, the most noticeable of which has been the erection and equipment of school buildings. An 8 room brick building has been added to the Vllest End School plant, and a 12 room brick building to the north school. In addition to these a new 12 room building is nearing completion in East NYinston. These buildings are all constructed along the most approved lines of school architecture and present a very pleasing appearance. The erection of these buildings was made necessary by the previous crowded condition of the schools together with a 10 per cent. increase in en- rollment. Yllith this equipment we feel safe in saying that VVinston has live of the best schools in the State. i A great many other additions and developments have been made along the line of internal improvement, all of which have increased the efficiency of the school system. However, it is not within the scope of this paper to enter into the details of such growth other than to emphasize the fact that the general trend of the school is upward. The play Hlllosef' given by the High School Dramatic Club for the benefit of The Black and Gold, proved quite a success. both from the standpoint of finances and dramatics. It was repeated with a large. appreciative audience. THE BLANK AND GOLD 53 .T -Linmlz ' Chapel Talks. Our school was greatly honored in having EX-Governor R. B. Glenn speak quite recently to us on the life and char- acter of Charles Bradley Aycock. Governor Glenn related in his ow11 interesting way, the brave and just character of Aycock and urged all to take him for an example. He said that Aycock died doing his duty. His last word was Education, his last plea was for the uplifting of humani- ty. Mr. L. NV. Collins, of Grace M. E. Church and Mr. J. ll. Clement of faculty have also given encouraging and in- spiring talks at our chapel exercises. During the second week of May, VVinston was very fortu- nate in having the State Federation of NN'omen's Clubs meet here. Representatives from the clubs of all the towns throughout the State were present, and many of North t'arolina's most intellectual women. The meeting was one of keen enjoyment for allg because aside from the business meetings, our club women were intertained at luncheons, receptions, and an automobile ride was given them. As women are never so happy as when clubbing, we can truthfully say that they had a very good time. Graduating Themes 1912- Poe and Lanier-A Comparison, Sudie Byerly.

A Trial In 1925 gives a very ridicu- lous light to the sutfragette question. The editorials are fine. The best thing in the April number is the beautiful little poem, 'fSpring Time. H A Peasantls Storyw is very good. XVe agree with the author of Miss Gibbie Gaultl' in her opinions of that wonderful little book. The Pointer is a very attractive magazine. The March number contains good stories and the poems are especially good. The Editorial on The Importance of Reading Good Literature also deserves mention. In the April issue. the editorials are rather brief and we would like to suggest that you have a separate column for your jokes. The stories are good, but a few poems would add a good deal to your magazine. The Messenger,', March klllll April issues. This is the best magazine received. The poems are good, especially Amity Ann . The continued story, Unlucky Pip is excellent, being very original and out of ordinary, and the short stories are very interesting. - The Lexington High School Magazine is Well gotten up and very interesting as a Whole. A Question of Love has a very fine plot and holds the interest of the reader until the very last. An especially good. production is The Leap Year Dancef' in that it shows the originality of the writer. The magazine contains some very line jokes. The editorials are good also, and are well worth reading. THE BLACK AND GOLD 57 The Critic, April and March issues: The story, VVhat's in a Namel' is unusually good and the Writer de- serves much credit. The jokes are fine, but fewer jokes and more poems would add greatly to the March number. The Shakesperean number for April is especially good because it is so original. The spirit of the students in con- nection with their school work is something to be proud of. Every department is well gotten up and is interesting. The Critic deserves much praise.

Greensboro were our opponents. This time, they found themselves completely fooled and returned home defeated by the score of -1 to 3. The game was ex- tremely fast and was a pitcher's battle between Baker for Vtlinston and Lewis for Greensboro. Each team secured 5 hits. Lewis had 12 strike-outs to his credit and Baker had nine. The second game was played in High Point. This time we were badly beaten by what is considered the best High School team in the State. The score was 23 to 8. High Point had just secured a new diamond, which was not yet in good condition, and our men found it extremely hard to play good ball. and so lost on account of very bad errors. In the matter of hits, Vtlinston and High Point secured nearly the same. High Point on the other hand, played a good fielding game. It is hoped that on their return game we may be able to give High Point the same dose they gave us. The batteries were: Cecil and 'White for High Point. and Fogleman and King for Wiiistoii. The next game proved a victory for us. This time it was against the Guilford t'Kid team. The game was fast and had many features, among which were the pitching of Tucker, the hitting and base-running of Crawford, the hit- ting of Pinkston and Speer, for the locals, and the fielding of'Peoples for Guilford. The batteries were Tindley and Edgerton for Guilford, and Tucker and Speer for VVinston. There were three or four other games scheduled, but were knocked out on account of rain. These we will attempt to play off soon. J s , f, 7 2? affix ,fffwfzfifaag-jlsifffff A special call to the 7th and higher grades to at- tend a good commercial school in Greensboro.
